I� LJ 1 SP 53 1 • • ' Lawn Planting: Stolonized Lawn: 1) Plant stolons in areas indicated on plans. 2) Prepare lawn areas as specified in 'soil preparation' section herein. 1 3) Fine grade areas to be stolonized to a smooth uniform grade. Obtain Engineer's approval of finish grades before planting stolons. 4) Method of planting — stolonization: a) Moisten area prior to planting to provide residual mois- ture for stolons. b) Install by means of mechanical planter which shreds sod into stolons, spreads the stolons, presses a major portion of the stolons into 1 the prepared soil with planter blades and rolls the planted area in one simul- taneous operation. Hand scatter stolons around sprinkler heads, trees or other obstacles and slice into soil with a hand stolon planter. c) Quantities of stolons to be planted: 5 bushels /1000 sq. ft. or 220 bushels per acre. d) Irrigation — After planting,stolons must be irrigated immediately and constantly for a period of two to three weeks. Stolons, once planted and until rooted, are extremely perishable and will not survive if permitted to dry out. Once stolons have rooted a more normal irrigation sche- dule may be adopted. e) Fertilizing after planting: After initial two —three weeks of constant irrigation, substantial leaching of nitrogen may occur. When planted areas have dried out sufficiently to facilitate the operation of equip- , ment, apply and irrigate in one of the following high nitrogen fertilizers: Ammonium Sulfate 200 lbs /acre Urea 130 lbs /acre Calcium Nitrate 180 lbs /acre Repeat applications of nitrogen fertilizers every 2 to 4 weeks to promote vegetative growth and rooting until planted area has filled into a solid stand of turf. f) Rolling and top dressing: If planted area is rutted or uneven, it maybe rolled three to four weeks after stolonizing. Deep ruts or 1 hollows in the grade shall be spot top dressed 1" to 2" without harm to the growing bermuda; utilize a uniformly graded fine sand for this operation. i g) Bare areas: Re— stolonize by hand large bare areas taking care that stolons are deeply pressed into freshly worked up "seed bed ". Extra watering care must be observed in such areas. Smal l bare areas can be 1 planted with plugs taken from non— critical areas of the bermuda stand. I. Maintenance ' Continuously maintain all areas during the progress of the work, the 90 —day maintenance period, and until final acceptance of this work. If plantings are not acceptable at the completion of the mainte- nance period, maintain all work until it meets specifications and is approved. I SP 54 0 0 Continuous maintenance operations of watering, weeding, mowing, rolling, trimming, edging, cultivation, ferilizing, spraying for insect and pest control, replacement and /or any other operations are necessary to assure a proper finished product. Keep all planted areas free of debris and cultivate and weed at no more than ten day intervals. Protect all areas during installation and maintenance periods. Repair any damaged plantings at Contractor's expense. Replace plant material that is not live, healthy, undamaged and free of infestations at the termination of the maintenance period. Replace inferior plantings and bring to a satisfactory condition before final acceptance wi11 be made. Keep areas neatly raked and free of weeds. Immediately replace any and all plant materials and grass that die or are damaged. Meet original plant material specifications with replace - ments. J.

F -20 TO: CITY COUNCIL OCT 10 1988 FROM: Public Works Department — A p ftVE - -_ SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF CONSTRUCTION OF THE IMPROVEMENTS AT BONITA CREEK PARK CONTRACT NO. 2505 RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Accept the work. 2. Authorize the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion. 3. Authorize the City Clerk to release the bonds 35 days after the Notice of Completion has been recorded in accordance with applicable portions of the Civil Code. DISCUSSION: The contract for the construction of the subject project has been completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works Department. The bid price was $1,743,962.20 Amount of unit price items constructed 1,773,998.59 Amount of change orders 9,698.40 Total contract cost 1,783,696.99 The increase in the amount of the unit price items constructed was due primarily to the bike trail curb and paving being omitted from the original estimate. Four Change Orders were issued. The first, in the amount of $3,590.88, provided for wire mesh in the building floor slab, additional shelving, extension of the tile wainscoating and additional door hinges. The second, in the amount of $397.69, provided for relocation of the heating ducts. The third, in the amount of $3,179.98, provided for a change in alignment of the storm drain, an additional light fixture and a revision to the overhead door. The fourth, in the amount of $2,529.85, provided for a change in the park sign and construction of a sub -drain in the parking lot area. Funds for the project were budgeted in the Park and Recreation Fund, Account No. 10- 7797 -066. The contractor is Inc. of Santa Ana. The contract date of completion was November 25, 1987. At the architect's recommendation, a time extension of 90 days was granted since it was felt that the original completion date was unrealistic. A subsequent 30 day extension was granted due to a delay in the contractor's being issued an excavation permit from the County for the imported top soil. Completion of construction was further delayed by weather and extra work until April 15. Germination of the turf was slowed by cool weather in the spring; however, the park was opened for use by the summer softball leagues on June 3, 1988. 470� J V r min B.

F -13 DEC 14198T TO: CITY COUNCIL APPROVED FROM: Public Works Department SUBJECT: BONITA CREEK PARK CONSTRUCTION (C -2505) GRANT OF EASEMENT TO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a Grant of Easement for a portion of the subject site for the purposes of serving power to the park. DISCUSSION: As a part of the Bonita Creek Park Construction (Contract No. 2505), electrical conduit, wiring, fuses and transformers are required to be installed • to provide electrical service to the site. At the time of Award of Contract, the electrical installations were accounted for in the construction plans. However, because the Park site is owned by the City, it was not anticipated that easements would be required for on -site electrical installations. Because of Southern California Edison Company policy and the Public Utilities Commission Regulations, the portion of electri- cal facilities up to the transformer and its appurtenances must be situated upon, or within, recorded easements. The size of the required easement is 12 feet by 14 feet. The electri- cal conduit and wiring have already been installed as a part of the Park construction contract. The transformer will be installed by the Edison Company once the easement has been recorded. Power to the site could be turned on in about 45 days. A sketch showing the �ak4 •Benjamin B.
