Staff then had a topographical survey prepared and conducted utility record research for <br /> the three "finalist" locations. The required grading, parking impacts, tree removals, storm <br /> drainage, and utility connection points for each alternative were determined utilizing this <br /> information. Preliminary plans and detailed cost estimates were prepared for all three <br /> alternatives. The three alternatives were similar in that they all considered the tennis <br /> courts to be constructed in the grass area between the two parking lots that is currently <br /> delineated by a "horseshoe" shaped sidewalk. The basic difference between the <br /> alternatives is the proposed location of the second court and how it impacts the park and <br /> parking lots. A Summary of the alternatives is below: <br /> Alternative One <br /> This alternative locates one of the tennis courts in the grass "horse shoe" shaped area <br /> between the parking lots. The second court is immediately adjacent and to the east of <br /> the first court. This alternative is estimated to cost approximately $800,000. <br /> Pros Cons <br /> • Grading is minimized • Removes 15 parking spaces from east lot <br /> (Currently 43 existing spaces in east lot) <br /> • Impact to west parking lot is limited • Removes 1 parking space from west lot <br /> (Currently 65 existing spaces in west lot) <br /> • Moderate total project cost • Removes 6 trees (1 Heritage Tree) <br /> • Courts located away from existing <br /> housing <br /> • Centralized location with easy access to <br /> tennis building <br /> Alternative Two <br /> This alternative again locates one of the tennis courts in the grass "horse shoe" shaped <br /> area between the parking lots. But in this case the second tennis court is located <br /> immediately adjacent and west of the first court. This alternative is estimated to cost <br /> approximately $760,000. <br /> Pros Cons <br /> • Grading is minimized • Removes 18 parking spaces from west lot <br /> (Currently 65 existing spaces in west lot) <br /> • Lowest total project cost • Removes 8 trees (2 Heritage Trees) <br /> • Courts located away from existing <br /> housing <br /> • Centralized location with easy access to <br /> tennis building <br /> Page 3 of 5 <br />
