SUBJECT:
Submittal of plans and specifications for "Santa Rosa Park
Irrigation Replacement City Plan No. M-05Y
CAO RECOMMENDATION:
Approve plans and specifications and authorize staff to advertise
for bids, find that the project is not of sensitive or
exceptional community interest, and authorize the City
Administrative Officer to award contracts within the estimated
cost.
BACKGROUND:
Santa Rosa Park is approximately 40 years old. The existing
irrigation system has deteriorated and wastes water. This project
will install A modern system that has been designed to take advantage
of current technology in irrigation and water conservation.
Construction of this project will reduce water consumption and will
reduce repair time and costs which are very high due to the age of
the system.
The Utilities Department has conferred with the private geologist
working for the City to develop ne:: well water sources and the
Recreation Director who helped develop Santa Rosa Park. They have
determined that very poor potential cor a productive well exists at
Santa Rosa Park due to the extremely shallow rock conditions that are
present in the park.
This project will help meet the stated City parks program goal which
is to maintain safe, useful and attractive parks and landscape areas.
This project conforms with the City's adopted five year water
conservation program in the following areas :
1 . Water Waste Program - It replaces a faulty system thus
eliminating water waste
2. Landscape Water Audit Program - The irrigation system is designed
to conform with the state landscape water management program
based on evapotranspiration rate. Efficient use of irrigation
water will be achieved by proper distribution and elimination of
leaks.
The project scope increased during design. Inspection of the pipes
showed that they were in worse condition than had been anticipated.
All piping is to be replaced back to the street service. The water
meter had to be relocated to conform to the County requirements for
backflow prevention. (f ?—/
