By motion, accept the supply of metal frame structure and authorize the release of bonds and retention <br />according to City procedures to Park Associates DBA Park Planet. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN GUIDING PRINCIPLE <br />Healthy Community for All <br />BACKGROUND <br />Jardin de Niños Park is a 0.31-acre park and the only park serving residents in the vibrant, diverse, low- <br />income and densely populated Stambaugh-Heller neighborhood. The neighborhood has sparse tree <br />canopy and minimal access to recreational space, providing little shade and recreational opportunities for <br />residents. In 2014, the City purchased the 3,800 square foot lot adjacent to the park with the intent to <br />enlarge the park. While the park expansion project enhances the physical environment and provides <br />shade, the new area offers places to gather, learn and exercise together, strengthening the social fabric <br />of the Stambaugh-Heller neighborhood. <br />Project Site Design <br />Through a 2011 outreach process, the City learned of the community’s desire to broaden the age group <br />of park users and to include space tailored for teens and seniors. The park’s expansion design responds to <br />that community feedback while also increasing access paths to the pre-existing park and creating a block- <br />long presence on Middlefield Road. The newly expanded area is equipped with Wi-Fi and electrical outlets <br />7.B. - Page 1 of 6 <br />11
