MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 1, 1994
TO: The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners
FROM: James W. Shira, P.E.
City Engineer/Utilities hector
SUBJECT: Proposed Palm Drive Park
The Recreation Department is planning to develop a park on property currently owned by the
wastewater utility. This property was obtained by the utility as part of the project which
eliminated the old M & M Utilities wastewater plant.
Prior to installing park equipment, the site must be regraded to provide a level play area. The
regrading project will be paid for by the wastewater utility, and we estimate that the work
will cost approximately $19,500.00. We have requested bids from contractors for this work,
and will open the bids on July 12, 1994.
The playground equipment will be purchased using $25,000 of Community Development
Block Grant funds provided through Orange County.
I recommend that the City Commission authorize the expenditure of funds from wastewater
Reserve for Contingency in an amount not to exceed $20,000.00 to pay for the site regrading
for the proposed Palm Drive Park. The current balance in this account is $62,395.00.
