Description/Analysis
Issue Detail: The Department of Youth, Parks, & Community Enrichment is seeking approval to award a contract to The Design Build Inc. for the Garcia Bend Park Restroom renovation project.
The Garcia Bend Park Restroom project (L19706038 & L19120200) consists of renovation to the existing restroom. Currently the restroom building has multi-stall segregated men and women restrooms. The renovation consists of converting this restroom into four individual restrooms for all genders and they will also be ADA accessible. All the fixtures will be replaced and new lighting, new exterior plaster coating, renovation to the existing plumbing, and a new roof installed.
Construction of the Garcia Bend Park Restroom project is expected to be completed by end of March 2019.
Garcia Bend Park is a 14.7-acre community park located at 7654 Pocket Road in Council District 7.
Policy Considerations: City Code Chapter 3.60 provides that City Council approval is required to enter into construction agreements over $100,000.
Providing parks and recreation facilities is consistent with the City’s general plan to enhance livability in Sacramento’s neighborhoods by expanding park, recreation, and trail facilities throughout the City.
Economic Impacts: The indicated economic impacts are estimates calculated using a calculation tool developed by the Center for Strategic Economic Research (CSER). CSER utilized the IMPLAN input-output model (2009 coefficients) to quantify the economic impacts of a hypothetical $1 million of spending in various construction categories within the City of Sacramento in an average one-year period. Actual impacts could differ significantly from the estimates and neither the City of Sacramento nor CSER shall be held responsible for consequences resulting from such differences.
The park construction projects in the amount of $161,582 is expected to create 0.64 FTE jobs (0.37 FTE direct jobs and 0.27 FTE indirect jobs through indirect and induced activities). Furthermore, it will create $99,767 in total economic output ($62,884 of direct output and $36,883 of output through indirect and induced activities).
Environmental Considerations: The proposed project has been determined to be exempt from environmental review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities. The project consists of minor alteration of and existing public building involving negligible or no expansion of use.
Sustainability: The park improvements are consistent with sustainable design through the use of recycled materials and local suppliers.
Commission/Committee Action: None
