BACKGROUND
In 1996, City Council directed Parks, Recreation, and Community Services staff to develop
a skatepark. In June 1997, City Council approved the authorization to acquire the
Merle Norman property (Santa Clarity Sports Complex). Escrow on the property closed in
October 1997, and plans for the skatepark began.
Public meetings were held on October 14, 1997 and November 25, 1997 by staff and the
architectural firm of Lawrence Moss & Associates. Preliminary designs were developed as
a result of public input. The final design was comprised of all ideas that best utilized the
site and the needs of both inline skaters and skateboarders.
On December 4, 1997, the Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed the preliminary
plans and recommended their approval to City Council. On January 20, 1998, the
preliminary plans were presented to and approved by the Planning Commission. The
architectural firm completed the plans and an Engineer's Estimate was prepared.
On June 23, 1998, City Council approved the award of a construction contract to
Evans & Son, Inc. Also, staff negotiated a change order to Evans & Son, Inc. in the amount
of $147,000.00. This change order provided for the installation of lighting, landscaping,
irrigation, and two sets of bleachers for the skatepark.
All work was completed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer on March 6, 2000. This
project was completed on schedule and within the approved project budget.
