1/1 <br />M E M O R A N D U M <br />TO: PARKS AND RECREATION AND FORESTRY COMMISSION <br />FROM: NICK DEBAR | PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR <br />DATE: OCTOBER 22, 2009 <br />RE: DISCUSS LAMBERT PARK BUILDING REPLACEMENT <br />The park building at Lambert Park is in need of replacement. The current building is not in any <br />sort of “rehabilitation” state due to it’s age, size, and degradation. The Capital Improvement <br />Program has the Lambert Park Building scheduled for preconstruction <br />(design/engineering/plans and specifications) in 2010 and demolition/construction in 2011. The <br />CIP has an estimated preconstruction cost of $30,000 and a demolition/construction cost of <br />$260,000. The CIP shows that funding is proposed to be split evenly between the Park <br />Dedication Fund and the Special Projects Fund. The cost estimate is based upon constructing <br />a building similar to the Groveland or Hillview Park buildings. <br />There has been some discussion that the new Lambert Park building should be built to <br />accommodate meetings better, without the feel of being a warming house. This idea arose <br />from the popularity of renting the Random Park building over Groveland and Hillview Park <br />buildings. <br />Staff is looking for recommendations from the Commission regarding project schedule, costs, <br />and type of building. It is anticipated that an architectural consulting will be hired to assist the <br />City in the preconstruction phase of the project next year. <br />ITEM NO. 8A
