Background and Analysis:
The Parks, Arts and Recreation Department completed an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) assessment of City parks in 2017. Providing access to Field #3 at LBA Park was identified as the highest priority access project in the park system, as we have received multiple complaints from park users who require accessibility. The project also draws funds from our Capital Asset Management Program (CAMP) to replace the adjoining retaining walls around the field, which have reached the end of their design life.
The project will build a new concrete ADA compliant ramp, concrete stairs and new concrete block retaining walls. The work will be done in the winter season to reduce impacts on the ballfield use. Staff expects the project to be complete in early April 2020.
The City received nine bids on September 26. Barcott Construction, LLC was the low bidder, with a bid of $552,511.50, which is below the engineer's estimate of $661,446.
Neighborhood/Community Interests (if known):
The City has received requests to provide ADA access to this field and once complete, citizens will have complete ADA compliant access to field #3.
