Body

DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION

The Parks Division recommends the Parks and Recreation Commission provide input regarding the scope of work prepared by Helix Environmental Planning, Inc for Chili Bar Park.

 

DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND

In 2009, the County had engaged into a contract with Foothill Associates, now Helix Environmental Planning, to provide services necessary to prepare a master plan for the Chili Bar Park property. This was developed with input from River Management Staff to examine options for the development of the site. The 2009 Master Plan was preliminary only, did not include public outreach, and was never adopted by the County. The Preliminary Master Plan that was prepared in 2009 has been attached to this item to provide additional background information. 

 

Staff would like to move forward in exploring the options for this site. The scope of work provided by Helix Environmental Planning would include a three phase process for the Chili Bar site and would include an updated plan, public outreach, and financial feasibility. The proposed scope of work is for a total not to exceed amount of $48,695 and would be funded by the River Trust Fund. Staff would like for the Parks and Recreation Commission to provide input on the proposed scope of work that has been provided by the vendor.
