Staffreport
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends acceptance of the work, filing of the Notice of Completion, and authorizing the City Manager to release the maintenance bonds for the subject project upon successful completion of the one-year maintenance period.
BACKGROUND
On March 2, 2009, the City received a Project Grant in the amount of $3,740,998 from the East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD) pursuant to the Measure WW Park Bond. The funds are for the acquisition and development of neighborhood, community, and regional parks, and recreation lands and facilities. City staff asked residents for input on how they would like the money spent, and then chose to proceed with the top ten projects.
The subject project received an allocation of $988,000 to renovate three group picnic areas (the Seagull, Mallard and Otter areas) at Marina Park. These three picnic areas were over 40 years old, and their original wooden shade structures were removed several years ago due to deterioration.
Analysis
Construction is now complete and was performed in compliance with the contract documents.
The project completely reconstructed the Mallard, Otter and Seagull group picnic areas with new concrete slabs, wind screens, picnic tables, barbeque pits, serving tables, trash cans and fabric panel shade structures.
