work already accomplished, materials already ordered, etc. Again, the exact amount will be negotiated with the contractor and processed as a final payment on the cancelled contract. Staff has attempted to control these costs by clearly informing the contractor to suspend all work on July 25, 2016 until further notice. If Council decides to build the courts in an alternative location, the cost to design the new bid package and other costs associated with the new location may increase the cost of adding two more courts to the Tennis and Community Park. Details of alternative location costs will be determined in the coming months. BACKGROUND 1985 Tennis and Community Park Master Plan The Tennis and Community Park was originally master planned by Heacox, Crutcher & Associates in 1985 and included 12 lighted tennis courts, an administration facility, a separate restroom facility, volleyball courts, playground and parking areas. The first phase was constructed in 1986 and included five tennis courts, a modest modular administration facility with restrooms, four volleyball courts, a "temporary children's play area", and 46 parking spaces. The remaining two phases were planned to be constructed immediately following the first phase, but due to other City priorities competing for limited funding, the next phases were delayed. 1995 Tennis and Community Park Master Plan In 1995 with the assistance of Singer & Hodges, the City updated the Tennis and Community Park master plan. As a result of the planning effort, five additional tennis courts, two basketball courts, the current administration building, 62 more parking spaces (including four ADA accessible spaces), and the current playground area were constructed in 1996. (The play equipment in the playground area was replaced in 2014). The remaining two components of the 1985 and 1995 Master Plan (the final two tennis courts and a new restroom facility) were not constructed in 1996 due to budget concerns. There was discussion during the 1994 planning process about the need for the last two courts, and ultimately the full courts were removed from the plan due to budgetary concerns. However, the plan included two half tennis courts with ball walls and handball courts in the location of the proposed tennis courts. The master plan assumed these to be constructed at a future time based upon the availability of funding. 2011 City Council Work Plan Prioritizes Need for Parks and Recreation Master Plan In 2011, the City Council adopted its annual work plan for FY 2011/12 which included the development of a comprehensive, city-wide Parks and Recreation Master Plan. The Master Plan's purpose was to provide a framework for directing City resources towards parks, facilities and programs, and for addressing future community recreational needs over the next ten years. In 2012, the Parks and Recreation Master Plan Steering Committee and staff began working with RJM Design Group, Inc. to develop the Master Plan. The two year process included; three community workshops, a community-wide telephone survey, a survey of community based non-profit organizations (art, civic, service, and sports), and a complete Page 2 of 8
