Park began during Fiscal Year 2010-2011. The construction documents and Engineer's

on the preferred plan (Attachment 1) recommended by the Parks and Community Services
Commission and approved by the City Council. The plan includes a basketball court, restroom,
nature themed play area surrounded by small rolling hills, group picnic areas, lighted pathways
and the design takes advantage of views with overlooks and benches. In order to meet the
construction budget and include a 5% contingency three deductive alternates have been
included in the bid package as follows:
