Backqround
In November 2007 and 2008, the City Council approved the use of Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to replace the Machado Park restroom.
The total allocation for the renovation of the restrooms is $160,000. The use of
CDBG funding is restricted and is limited to certain portions of the City that meet
the County's income guidelines.
On May 26, 2009, City Council approved the purchase of a pre-fabricated
restroom in the amount of $96,388.75. This restroom has been ordered and will
be delivered in October 2009.
Discussion
The Parks and Recreation Department is requesting Council to authorize staff to
advertise for bids for the Machado Park restroom project. The scope of work for
this project includes the demolition of the existing restroom, site preparation,
installation of the new restroom, concrete work, and installation of new irrigation
and landscape. The engineer's cost estimate for this project is $30,000.
Fiscal Impact
Funds for the Machado Park Restroom are in account 150-0000-463-40-11
#4328 and will be reimbursed by CDBG funding once the project is completed
and reimbursement is requested from the County.
