6.1.C. - Page 2 The proposed agreement with RHAA will provide design development, public outreach, construction documents, bid and construction support, and construction administration services for the Mezes and Jardin de Ninos Parks Renovation Project. Community outreach in both the Mezes and Jardin de Ninos neighborhoods is planned to gather ideas, achieve consensus on improvements and to keep the community apprised of the progress of the design and construction. Approximately 60% of the cost of this agreement is for services related to the Mezes Park renovation and 40% for services related to the Jardin de Ninos Park renovation. ALTERNATIVES Council may choose not to approve the design services agreement with RHAA, and direct staff to renegotiate the terms or select another consultant. FISCAL IMPACT Available funds total approximately $833,000 for the design and construction of improvements at both parks, which exceeds the estimated cost of design and construction of $752,524. Funds have been previously approved and appropriated in the Capital Projects Fund as Play Equipment Replacement Program which has an available balance of $27,000, Restroom Replacement Program which has a balance of $200,000, Jardin de Ninos which has a balance of $200,000, and Mezes Parks Renovation which has a balance of $406,000. Balances are approximate and as of August 30, 2011 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is limited to the repair and renovation of existing facilities.
