Description of Item:

Both the San Lorenzo Community Center Renovation Project and the San Lorenzo Community Park Phase II Renovation Project were approved in the current Three-Year Capital Improvement Program 2017-2020 (CIP). The first phase of the community park renovation was completed before the current CIP was adopted.

 

For the Phase II renovation of the park, a Task Order with RRM Landscape Architects was approved on September 16, 2019, to complete the construction documents to continue the renovation of San Lorenzo Park. The construction documents are approximately 70% complete and staff anticipates that construction will start during summer 2020. 

 

In parallel, the design process for the renovation of the Community Center within the park has begun. A contract with Dahlin Group Architecture was approved by the Board on July 15, 2019. Since then, the firm has initiated information gathering and evaluation of the existing facility and begun program review with an initial Stakeholder Group, composed of staff and nearby residents. The goal of this initial work is the generation of three draft conceptual designs and a feasibility analysis for each.  Staff anticipates construction would begin on the community center during winter 2021.

 

The presentation will show the progress of the Community Center’s three renovation design options for Board review and comment. The presentation will also address the state of the integration of the park’s renovation design.
