Project Scope

In May 2011, the City Council approved installation of artificial turf at the multi-purpose field located on the Edison Elementary School property. The project was completed in 2014. Now, the Pacific Park field needs a major overhaul. The turf surface needs to be replaced, the rubber infill is low, and a compaction study is needed to determine if the underlying base is still in good condition.  Beyond the turf renovation, other necessary site improvements include addressing stormwater runoff issues, decomposed granite area, and seating, and increasing the height of the northern fence off Vine St.

Budget

The current project budget in FY 2023-24 included $276,034 for design of the replacement in CIP funds. 

Status Update

City released a verbal RFP and proposals were due on November 17, 2023. The City received two proposals and awarded the design contract to Verde Design, Inc in May 2024.  A kick-off meeting was held on June 10, 2024, on-site at the multi-purpose field with CSP and GUSD staff in attendance to discuss project goals, standards, and requirements.  It’s anticipated that 100% Construction Drawings can be completed in 6-8 months, with a goal of starting construction in Spring/Summer 2025 and project completion by December 31, 2025.
