EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Following the opening of Positano Hills Park, the City received feedback from residents

the play area along with shade trees are proposed for Positano Hills Park.

expended at the end of fiscal year 2012/2013.
Remaining Available Budget for Construction $130,000
Base Bid Cost Estimate $135,542
Additive Bid Item 1 - Additional Trees $5,285
Estimated Cost of Improvements $140,827

Staff recommends that the City Council receive the presentation and approve the preferred
option.

DESCRIPTION:
Following the receipt of resident concerns about the need for more playground equipment for
older children at the Positano Hills Park, Staff held a public meeting on August 14, 2013 to
review feedback received from an on-line survey and to solicit additional information from the
public on their preferences for potential modifications to Positano Hills Park. Based on feedback
from the public meeting and on-line survey, the public priorities for site modifications included
the following:
Play Area for Children Ages 5-12
1) Additional climbing elements
2) Additional swings
3) Higher slide structure
Site Shading
1) Shade elements installed adjacent to play area
2) Additional trees adjacent to play area
Generally the public wants a larger play area with more play elements for children 5 to 12 years
old, and additional shade in the adjacent picnic areas. In response to those preferences, Staff
worked with the Landscape Architect to develop two alternatives for additional play components
geared for children ages 5-12. Two options were presented at the October 21, 2013 Parks and
Community Services Commission meeting and additional feedback was received from the
public.
As a result, the Preferred Option includes the relocation of an existing rope bridge from the
lower level play area and attaches it to the existing slide. The space opened up by the
relocation of the rope bridge is modified and a typical two bay swing set is added. The existing
climbing rock is realigned and the area expanded to accommodate a more traditional play
system with a 6’ tall slide with climbing and access features.
In regards to additional shading, the Parks and Community Services Commission recommends
including additional trees in larger sizes (24” and 36” containers). Since the cost estimate for
the play area improvements slightly exceeds the available budget, Staff recommends that the
addition of trees near the playground area be bid as an additive bid item.
If the preferred option is approved by the City Council, Staff expects that the project will be
ready to go to bid in January 2014 with the proposed work being completed in Spring 2014.
NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH:
Neighborhood residents surrounding the park were mailed public meeting notices for both the
Community Meeting on August 14, 2013 and the Parks Commission Meeting on October 21,
2013. An additional public meeting notice for this City Council meeting was mailed to
neighborhood residents and the homeowners association.
