Subject: Playground Improvements at San Miguel, Grant Howald, Bonita Creek, and Channel Place Parks — Award of Contract No. 3588 June 24, 2003 Page: 2 Although Sadie Construction is a new construction company, a reference check by staff revealed that its operators have had many years of experience completing concrete and other playground related improvements for various Southern California agencies. In particular, the City of Azusa provided staff with positive feedbacks on the work that Sadie recently completed. The existing play equipment at San Miguel, Grant Howald, Bonita Creek, and Channel Place parks was installed many years ago. Since their installation, the safety criteria for tot -lot playground equipment has changed. This project provides for the replacement of the existing outdated equipment with new City purchased units, the installation of protective surfacing under and surrounding the new equipment, the enlargement of two existing tot -lots to comply with the current "Fall Zone" safety requirements, the import and placement of new playground sand at select locations, and the construction of access provisions and other miscellaneous improvements. Environmental Review: Staff has determined that this project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15302 of the CEQA Implementing Guidelines. This exemption covers the maintenance and alteration of existing public facilities with negligible expansion of the facilities in areas that are not environmentally sensitive. The project consists of the replacement of existing playground equipment and would not impact any environmental resources.
