The project consists of installing lights on two soccer fields. Bids will also be requested for two additional fields, as Additive Alternates. Listed below is an estimate of the total project cost: Construction Contract (Basic Bid) 1. Field No. 2 2. Field No.3 $ 51,000 15,000 Sub-Total $66,000 Structural Engineer (P.O. .29010l4) 1,500 Electrical Engineer (P.O. .29010l5) 750 Engineering & Inspection (W.O. .1344) 8,000 Sub-Total $76,250 Contingencies (5%)f 3,750 TOTAL ESTIMATED PROJECT COST $80,000 All construction will have to comply with requirements of the Office of the State Architect, since this site is still owned by the School District. These requirements have necessitated engaging a Structural Engineer and an Electrical Engineer, and paying filing fees to the Office of the State Architect. Review of the plans by the Office of the State Architect has extended the design time by a considerable amount. An amount of $78,874 has been allocated from CDBG Funds, under Account No. l2l-160~57162. The County is providing $30,000 of this amount. The two additional fields have been included in the bid documents, since the County has expressed an interest in providing supplemental funds to cover their costs. We recommend that the plans be approved and authorization granted to advertise for bids. 7-13-87 75-0264 CIl'( OF SAN BERNARDI'"., - REQUE"'T FOR COUNCIL ACT-"")N STAFF REPORT Page 2 of 2 Soccer teams currently practice on any lighted field available. Installation of lights on these fields will provide adequately illuminated areas for practice, and thereby help to reduce the possibility of accidents or injuries. Additionally in California Public Resources Code, Section 5701, the legislature of the State of California has made the following pertinent findings: (b) Community, neighborhood, and regional parks, beaches, recreational areas, recreational trails, and other recreational facilities, and the preservation of historic sites and structures contribute significantly to a healthy physical and moral environment and also contribute to the economic betterment of the state. (c) Many older parks and recreational facilities have deteriorated to the point where the original investment in them may become lost, and prompt action is necessary to restore them to usefulness. Based on the above, we recommend the finding that installation of field lighting at AYSO will contribute to the health and safety of the community. 7-13-87 75-0264
