Legislative Regular Agenda
E Presentation, discussion and possible direction on Schematic Design of San Gabriel Park.
Kimberly Garrett gave a brief description of the project. Improvements to San Gabriel Park were one of
the projects that was included in the 2008 Park Bonds. In June 2015 the San Gabriel Park Master Plan
was presented to City Council and was very well received. During the 2015/2016 budget process
additional bond funds of $1.7M were approved to be sold to be added to the $1M of bond funds in the
current budget. This $2.7M would be funding needed to prepare a schematic design for phase 1 and
phase 2, design and construction of phase 1. The improvements to San Gabriel Park are phased for two
reasons. One was to ensure the natural springs in the park along the river were preserved first and the
other was to not interrupt all activities in the park at the same time.
Kimberly Garrett introduced the presenters. RVI presented an updated schematic of phase 1 and phase
2 along with updated costs and timeline. The presenters were: Chris Lalich — RVI, Barbara Austin — RVI,
Drew Carman — RVI, Nathan Quiring — Clayton & Little Architects, and Trey Sutton — KPA. An update on
San Gabriel Park is scheduled to be presented to City Council at the workshop on April 26th.
