City of Cudahy
5 Firm’s Understanding of Objectives
In general, it is the City’s goal to transform the existing park into an aesthetically pleasing productive park with the installation of a variety of amenities and uses that a broad spectrum of the community can benefit from and utilize. Cudahy Park is estimated at 5.9 acres. The entire Cudahy complex encompasses an estimated 8 acres. The complex includes the civic center such as City Hall, a branch of the Los Angeles County Public Library system and a community building for multi-purpose uses named Bedwell Hall. The shape of the site is primarily rectangular with a relatively flat topography with mature trees. The park site is bordered by residential, an elementary school and the Los Angeles River. The existing park has mature trees; therefore, careful attention will be made to protect in place those trees and design the improvements away from any root intrusion. A few of the trees will need to be removed to accommodate the new improvements.

The City conducted a series of community workshops to obtain input and feedback regarding the planning for the renovations. A final schematic site plan was prepared and accepted by the community and City representatives. The funding for the improvements is made available through a Statewide Park Development and Community Revitalization Grant program in the amount of $6.9 million.

It is our understanding, based on the City-furnished schematic plan, the City would like the following improvements at Cudahy Park:
 New shaded all-inclusive ADA accessible playground
 New ADA-accessible drinking fountains
 New trash receptacles and bench seating
 New stage
 Renovate the basketball courts
 Renovate the multi-purpose fields
 Renovate the tennis courts
 Renovate the skate park
 Renovate the playground
 New shaded splash pad
 New walking trails
 New shaded fitness stations
 New area lighting
 New shaded area for picnic tables and barbeques
 Upgrade irrigation system to meet California Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO), e.g., “Smart” technology
 The installation of a planting palette consisting of trees, shrubs and groundcovers that are California native and drought-adaptive species for this geographic region of the Los Angeles basin
Additionally, it is our understanding that the park site currently has onsite parking and offsite parking.

Our scope of work will include reviewing the existing park for ADA-compliant parking stalls and ADA path of travel routes to the various park amenities.

City of Cudahy
6 Furthermore, Willdan understands that the City has in place a “Covenant to Restrict Use of Property” (recorded in Los Angeles County) between the Department of Toxic Substances Control. Two locations within the park project limits will require specific requirements regarding the development in those respective areas.

Proposed Improvements – Discussion on the Major Items
Playground and Fitness Stations. The playground equipment will be selective based on an all-inclusive playground system that promotes a high-value experience for the various age groups. These play systems will encourage and challenge the park user. Additionally, the play equipment can improve coordination and strength along the way.

The exercise stations will be selected based on accessibility and ease of use to accommodate multiple types of physical fitness levels for strength building and coordination. Additionally, the selection of the equipment will be based on a fitness circuit approach that can be utilized by the users as an option.

Rubberized Surfacing. The surface material for the playgrounds and fitness areas will be the latest technology in rubberized components and one that is sustainable and produced with recycled materials.

The surface material will be one of having long-lasting durability and wearability and having the proper coefficient of friction suitable for this type of play and exercise value.

Walkways and Park Lighting. These areas are designed per Illumination Institute Standards (IES) with special attention paid to energy efficiency. We have started to use L.E.D. fixtures in addition to the standard Metal Halide approach when cost effective. Time clocks and photo-cell control will also be included, along with vandal resistance and glare. The lighting fixtures will be selected based on the latest advanced technology in lighting efficiency. Reducing glare to adjacent properties is especially important and will be controlled through fixture type and aiming. The optimum light direction will be determined to set the pole heights, the pole placement, and the light levels required for this park site Basketball Courts, Tennis Courts and Multi-Use Fields. The multi-use fields will be designed with the latest technology in sub-soil base and amendments for proper drainage and moisture retention. The basketball and tennis courts’ design will be a regulation size full court size with a non-slip surfacing suitable for outdoor play. The proper placement of expansion joints and control joints enables resistance for concrete crack control.

Sports Lighting. The lighting fixtures will be selected based on the latest advanced technology in lighting efficiency. Reducing glare to adjacent properties is very important and will be controlled through fixture type and aiming. Due to various leagues using these fields, the optimum “class of play” must be determined to set the pole heights, the pole placement, and the light levels required for the most restrictive use. This can be determined after meetings with the stakeholders and City staff.

Picnic Shade Shelters and Community State Architectural Design. Willdan will be utilizing the services of a design-build and manufacturing company that specializes in pre-engineered shade shelters and community stage coverings. As we have learned in past projects, this is a cost-effective and timesensitive approach for this type of construction in a park environment. The manufacturing company makes available many options and amenities that allow for a customized appearance. The shelters will be designed with the most current in construction materials technology. Special attention will be placed on the use of recycled materials for the shelters. For lighting consideration, the use of photovoltaic (solar) systems will be implemented. The specified products and materials for the shelter will be the latest in "Green" technology and efficiency.

7 Walking Paths and General Pedestrian Circulation. Many park users come to this park for both sports and leisure activities. Willdan's design will look at the walking paths throughout the improvement areas and ensure the pathway network has a continuous paved surface. This pathway will include access from the street and other various locations. In addition, these improvements will facilitate a designated pathway for the pedestrian, thus offering a safe and understood environment within the park site.

Furthermore, the walks/pathways will be designed to comply with current guidelines under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

Energy Conservation. Consideration will be given to any concepts the City would like used, including photo-voltaic solar systems and LED lighting. Other emerging technologies will be used as they become cost-effective.

Irrigation and Planting. The development of the landscape design will incorporate all aspects of local and state water conservation standards, including meeting the requirements of the California Model Landscape Efficient Ordinance (MWELO). The turf species selected for the open field use will be for its low maintenance, good durability, fast recovery, pest resistance and suitability for this particular geographic region. It has been our experience that the second most important aspect of turf fields (first being irrigation coverage) is the backfill mix within the root zone. Having the proper mixture of organic and inorganic materials in the soil mix allows adequate percolation as well as inhibits soil compaction.

Furthermore, the routine maintenance of soil amendments, such as humate soil conditioners, strengthens the turf for drought tolerance, durability and recovery.

The tree, shrub and groundcover palette will be comprised of drought-tolerant species suitable for the geographic area, along with a well-designed irrigation system that delivers the highest efficiency. All plants will be chosen based on low maintenance requirements such as trimming/pruning cycles, mowing, fertilization needs, and hardiness. Willdan has demonstrated experience in integrating drought-tolerant and low-maintenance plant materials in major urban designs such as sports complexes, city streetscapes, freeways and demonstration gardens.

For the irrigation systems, careful analysis and assessment will be considered. New irrigation mainlines and points of connection (meter and backflow prevention location) will be part of the renovations, along with all new sprinklers/dripline/rotors that achieve maximum water distribution to the planting material. This will start a clean slate for many years to come.

Site Amenities. Along with these major improvements, simple amenities such as bicycle racks, trash receptacles, drinking fountains, and benches will be incorporated into the park site. In addition, overhead shading structures are planned for the playground and picnic table. All these amenities noted will be selected based on sustainability materials, ease of replacement parts and durability for public park use.

Splash Pad. The splash pad design will include a variety of experiences for the users. Options will be presented to the City prior to the final design. The water output among the various spray fountains and water collection buckets will offer unique play values. The mechanical equipment such as pumps, sanitizing reservoirs, filters, and electronics will be the latest technology in efficiency and water conservation.

Bioswales. Willdan will include an analysis and design to include bioswale facilities within the park in accordance with the guidelines outlined in the LA County LID Manual.

8 Water and Sewer Improvements. Willdan will include water and sewer design for connections and pipelines to service the splash pad and drinking fountains in accordance with the water purveyor and County of Los Angeles Department of Health Standards.

Key Issues
Willdan identifies the following “key” issues that may be encountered on the Project based on our prior experiences.

Utilities
Willdan’s initial review of existing utilities within the project area will be conducted based on available contract documents or as-built plans from City and County records. Utilities that appear to be impacted by the project will be identified, field verified and discussed with the utility owner so that both physical and cost impacts can be appropriately addressed in the design. Willdan will coordinate and maintain a liaison with known area utilities. Potholing for underground utilities impacted by subsurface construction activities may be necessary to determine actual depths and locations of known utilities (this will be performed as additional services if necessary). Willdan will send notifications to utility companies so that planned utility installations are performed prior to park construction. In addition, Willdan will submit a set of preliminary plans to each affected utility company for comments and coordinate the potholing of utilities that interfere with proposed improvements, either by the utility company or by an independent contractor as extra work if the utility has prior rights. Furthermore, we will submit a set of final plans to each affected utility company with final notification for the completion of utility work. Finally, Willdan will provide the City with a brief written summary of the utility coordination status upon delivery of final construction contract documents to the City.

Site Grading and Drainage and Topographic Survey
In general, the park site topography is relatively flat, and all four sides of the site are bounded by hardscape surfaces, e.g., asphalt paving, and concrete sidewalks. For this reason, site grading will be straightforward, with the goal of ensuring sufficient slope to maintain drainage and the retention of current drainage patterns. Some of the modifications will include area drain relocation and additions. A topographic survey will be performed to document current conditions such as existing grades, surface culture and any other existing items/structures, along with assisting with designing/placement of the new developments, e.g., community stage.

Water quality management measures will be implemented for this project. Those structures include bio-swales and stormwater filtration chambers. Furthermore, Willdan will work closely with the jurisdictions/agencies of the storm drainage system involved in the adjacent/vicinity of the park site.

Post Construction
Along with a well-thought-out design, the long-term effects regarding the maintenance of the facilities are a consideration we feel is highly important. An area may appear to be optimal, but the cost of maintenance is a question that sometimes gets overlooked. Our design will address maintenance concerns, such as low, medium or high maintenance, along with budgets to consider. Willdan believes good, effective design should be compatible with reasonable maintenance costs. Such elements of the design we look at include planting material selection, paving materials and transitions, and general access for serviceability.

Preparation of PS&E for the Cudahy Park Renovation
City of Cudahy
9 Tree Preservation
Willdan will make tree preservation a priority when designing the new improvements. Our site reconnaissance will assist in determining proper distances from tree trunks with respect to the walkways and other significant features.

Hazardous Material Remediation:

Hazardous material remediation design will include the recommendations of the Los Angeles Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSD) Covenant and Agreement with the City regarding the presence of toxic materials along the River Road Areas and the Tree Areas. A Soil Management Plan has been included in our scope and any related design would address the required remediation of the excavation soils based on the recommendations of the City/DTSD Covenant and Agreement.

Project-Specific Approach
Projects, no matter how big or small, are approached similarly by the Willdan team in that they are thought out clearly and carefully during the earliest stages of the project. This equates to a detailed study of the project requirements during the proposal stage, the assignment of a project manager experienced in those project requirements, and the establishment of a project team with individual expertise in their assigned tasks.

Our vision is that the park renovations should be unique, an asset to the surrounding community and maintain its identity as a recreational environment.

Good planning is an essential element of any design – whether the design is for a recreational park or institutional facility. Willdan understands the importance of well-designed park planning and is experienced in integrating solid design and planning into any setting. As we envision, community parks are divided into several components corresponding to their various uses and are situated in park-like settings complete with walkways, sitting areas and shade areas. This tranquil and aesthetically pleasing setting translates into an effective and conducive space for play and relaxation. Willdan shall strive to create a unique experience for the park improvements that is harmonious with the surroundings and strive for congruency within the project site.

Furthermore, safety and circulation are important factors in design, particularly in a well-planned park environment. These two basic design elements in a public space cannot be compromised or overemphasized. Indeed, one of the most important functions of landscape architecture in a park environment is to convey safe and comfortable surroundings. A well-designed park environment can only generate enthusiasm among its users.

The above considerations will be the driving force behind the design throughout this project. While minor subtleties can occur in smaller spaces such as small gathering plazas, the overall design should offer diversity while maintaining a common thread in the landscape that unifies the park site as a whole.

Willdan’s design philosophy follows the Frank Lloyd Wright maxim: Form Follows Function. This does not mean rigidity in any sense, but that a successful design must work for its intended use. The logical design process then is:
 Determine the users.
 Ascertain goals and needs.
 Development spatial requirements for the intended uses.  Analyze the site for constraints and opportunities to meet desired spatial needs.

Design Phase Engineering Services for the
Preparation of PS&E for the Cudahy Park Renovation
City of Cudahy
10  Develop use/space relationships that integrate like uses and segregate unlike uses. (Conceptual alternatives in relation to site opportunities.)
 Use circulation as the means of connecting spaces and creating form. Use plantings to define spaces, including buffers.
 In the construction drawing implementation, use the economy of means principle. This, basically, is value engineering. It is concerned with a useful life, constructability, efficiency of maintenance, low water use, etc.

The final result is a design product that is creative in landscape personality, respective of site attributes, and provides the client and public the most value for their tax dollars. Landscape architecture should be unique; an asset to the surrounding area yet maintain its identity in its final form and function.

Project Execution - Over the course of the past 52 years, Willdan has developed very practical and successful techniques to project development and delivery. In essence, the following summarizes our approach to delivering your projects on time and within budget.

Once the course of action is established, Willdan will develop a project schedule. The schedule will be circulated to the City and other pertinent stakeholders for review and acceptance. The schedule will be developed with the City’s project completion date in mind and will include and measurable milestones to ensure the project completion date is met and is consistent with the City’s timeline. Below is a summary of work:
 Willdan will conduct regular project progress meetings with the City to report progress, any outstanding issues, and proposed resolutions including updating the City with status reports regarding other agency(s) having jurisdiction with this project. Meeting minutes with action items will be provided.
 Willdan will coordinate with City and pertinent stakeholders to schedule the review of project deliverables.
 Willdan will coordinate with the City and pertinent stakeholders to schedule the required meetings with regulatory agencies for deliverables review and approval  Willdan will complete all required revisions and obtain approval from the City and regulatory agencies for the project deliverables.

Quality Assurance and Control Procedures - Quality assurance and control procedures are critical to ensuring sound technical practices are in place and quality deliverables are produced. Willdan operates daily under a company-wide Quality Assurance/Control Program.

12 Scope of Work
Willdan acknowledges and understands the scope of work and deliverables presented in the City’s request for proposal. The scope of services below provides additional information related for the implementation of the project.

Preliminary Design
Kick-Off Meeting. Upon receiving the notice to proceed from the City, Willdan will prepare a project schedule based on the scope of work presented in the proposal. The schedule will be submitted to the City for review and acceptance. If other items come up after the original schedule was accepted, Willdan will revise/update the schedule to meet the City’s timeframe. Willdan will participate in a kick-off meeting to include the decision-makers from the City and other agencies such as gas and electrical and other agencies that become known to us resulting from our research. The meeting will be used to discuss project scope and schedule including design goals and criteria, roles and responsibilities, work program, budgeting, utility coordination, plan and specifications preparation, cost estimate, submittal reviews, and anticipated construction issues.

Topographic Survey, Field Review, Research and Data Gathering. Willdan will conduct a field investigation to verify existing topographic conditions and identify unusual or special conditions and review available improvement plans, utility plans, and data records within the project area. A topographic survey will be performed to document current conditions such as existing grades, surface culture and any other existing items/structures, along with assisting with designing/placement of the renovations/improvements.

As part of our field review, research and data gathering, Willdan would like to arrange a meeting with the City's maintenance facilities managers and/or supervisor to obtain as much detailed information as possible regarding the proposed improvements (e.g., drainage, hardscape, circulation, irrigation, plant material, etc.). This input will provide specific recommendations pertaining to the improvements for the purposes of maximizing the budgets. Additionally, the purpose of the meeting is to get first-hand knowledge about the existing irrigation system and discuss proposed modifications to accommodate the new landscaping. Furthermore, this field review will also identify potential design constraints and conflicts and observe general site conditions.

Geotechnical Investigation. Willdan will review the available subsurface data or published geologic and geotechnical maps and documents to determine general subsurface conditions at the project site; and determine the most appropriate locations for borings. The proposed field investigation will include site reconnaissance and subsurface exploration. Geotechnical laboratory testing will be performed on representative samples of soil to evaluate the engineering characteristics of these materials. This information will be valuable in determining the subsurface drainage as well as the footing design for the structural design of the shade shelter and community stage, general paving installations, bioswales and water quality management, thus managing the construction costs at the beginning. Known clearance of subsurface utilities from Underground Service Alert will be obtained prior to commencement of field exploration.

Utilities. Willdan will conduct a utilities investigation (i.e., water, sewer, gas, electrical, cable, telephone, stormwater) of known utilities within and near the project improvements. The investigation will identify any potential or conflicting issues that can have a significant impact on the project. By knowing this information at the beginning stage, the limits and constraints can be planned accordingly.

City of Cudahy
13 Willdan will review and present specific requirements for utility facilities including protection, relocation, right-of-way, and construction methods within the vicinity of the utility.

Utility information will be requested from each utility company that has facilities within the limits of the project. This information will be incorporated into the design plans and plotted per the atlases provided by each utility company. Willdan will forward plans to the utility companies requesting verification. At this time, any potential utility conflicts will be identified and presented to the City for discussion and proposed solutions. (Note: Willdan will provide a fee proposal for design services for utility relocation, if required.) A review of the utility information will be performed to determine the impact of the project on the various utilities and any required potholing by utility companies will be coordinated.

Environmental. Willdan will review the environmental documents to determine whether there are any mitigation measures that are required to be fulfilled in the design of the proposed improvements.

Said mitigation measures will be incorporated into the design of the park and associated park improvements.

Design Development Plan and Preliminary Opinion of Probable Costs. Following the survey, research, site data gathering and base mapping, Willdan will prepare a design development plan based on the descriptions of improvements presented in the City-furnished schematic plan. The design development plan will address in further detail an understanding of the spatial requirements and relationship for the renovation improvements including circulation functions, landscape and irrigation, utility infrastructure, shade shelter and community stage architecture, electrical engineering, and grading and drainage systems.

Funding for this 8-acre park development was available through a park grant from Proposition 84. Willdan was involved with this project from the very beginning of planning, through the grant application submittal and the preparation of construction documents. Willdan also handled the construction management services. The project includes synthetic turf play fields, a 400-meter walking/running track, multi-use soft-footed trails, exercise stations, parking, security lighting, and enclosed decorative steel fencing for the entire park. The park development is located within Southern California Edison right-of-way, therefore went through a lengthy review process and adhered to all requirements set forth in the SCE conditions of approval.

Willdan was retained to develop a 7-acre park site that was considered a “brownfield” by the EPA. Portions of the site tested positive for contaminants and were thus declared a Superfund site. This site was occupied previously by a railroad track spur, a metal plating company, a battery manufacturer, and residential properties. A thorough remediation program administered by the Environmental Protection Agency has allowed the reclamation of the land for public use. Willdan assisted in securing various grant funding along with working closely with the EPA in developing and ensuring mandated mitigation measures were met for site reclamation. Over ten governing agencies were involved in developing/overseeing this park site.

The park consists of 7.3 acres adjacent and overlooking the Los Angeles River. Development of the park includes street vacation, extensive network of monitoring wells relocation and adjustments, parking lot, restroom facilities, retaining walls, large gathering spaces, landscaping, sidewalks, bicycle paths, a staging/resting area for those using the Los Angeles river trail, a bridge, walking trails, lawn and picnic areas, a basketball court, a passive playfield, a California native demonstration gardens reflecting the river’s natural plant community habitat, the incorporation of a swale to add to a natural habitat setting and aid in the control of runoff, community art sculptures and plenty of shade trees to sit under. Field and security lighting is provided for evening use of the park. Willdan prepared plans, specifications, and estimates for Riverfront Park with funds made available through Trust for Public Land, Coastal Conservancy, and various park bond measures.

By meeting all the strict mitigations imposed on the site, Willdan successfully completed the construction of the park site which integrated character and personality to the local community along the LA River Corridor.

ANALYSIS
The City of Cudahy and its Redevelopment Dissolution Successor Agency own the properties located at 5256 & 5260 Elizabeth St (SITE 1) in the City of Cudahy, and currently vacant (also referred as, “Site 1”). The properties have suffered break-ins, congregations, people loitering, and the City has also observed evidence of fires and campsites and has had to respond to such on numerous occasions. The buildings have also sustained damage, including broken windows and steps, causing any immediate hazard to anyone who trespasses onto the Sites. Despite the constant efforts to secure the buildings from unlawful entry (including boarding up the properties), the conditions leave these properties very vulnerable, and the recurrence of these conditions is sure to increase with constant transients’ activity at the subject sites.

As it known the city and its Redevelopment Dissolution Successor Agency are in the process of considering selling and/or development on the subject sites. Accordingly, investing in repairing these buildings just to keep vagrants out is not financially feasible. Further, due to the economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the effort to secure a trusted full-time tenant on a temporary basis to fit the City’s needs with the hopes that occupancy of the building will mitigate the public safety and health hazards is not a practical option.

In order to keep these properties and area safe for the public and immediate adjacent neighbors, it is the City Staff recommendation to demolish and clean up these properties and remove and properly dispose existing debris. In addition, demolition of the red tagged existing structures will avoid future fires and to also stop transients coming in into the property looking for shelter. Furthermore, by completing this project the City will reduce/ avoid potential liability due to fire damage to adjacent and nearby properties, vandalism, and criminal activity from transients getting in and out of these properties.

The project scope of work for this demolition project includes without limitation, furnishing all necessary labor, materials, equipment, and other incidental and appurtenant Work necessary to satisfactorily complete the Project, consists of and includes demolition of building and predemolition haz-mat abatement and other relevant work at 5260 Elizabeth St (SITE 1) and 5256 Elizabeth St, Cudahy, CA 90201 as more specifically described in the Contract Documents.

The proposed project is categorically exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, Sections 15000–15387), Article 19. Categorical Exemptions, Section 15301, Existing Facilities as a Class 1 paragraph (l) Demolition and removal of individual small structures listed in this subdivision.

City Staff followed the regular bidding process for this project per Public Works Contract Code.

In preparation for this, the Engineering Department (thru an environmental consultant) performed required hazmat testing and asbestos report for the Site. Accordingly, the Engineering Department in coordination with City Clerk Office issued a Notice to Contractors to procure construction services for the aforementioned project. The project was properly advertised on September 25, and October 2, 2023, in the newspaper. A bid opening ceremony took place on October 19, 2023, at City Chambers. A total of three bids were received for this project, ranging in cost from $99,400 to $154,444 (Total Bid Amount).

Unlimited Environmental, Inc. submitted a bid proposal in the total base bid amount of $99,400 and is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

CONCLUSION
City Council approval of the Construction Contract Services Agreement with Unlimited Environmental, Inc., would resolve the need of clean-up, maintenance, and transients’ activity in the above-mentioned 5256 & 5260 Elizabeth St (SITE 1) – City of Cudahy and its Redevelopment Dissolution Successor Agency. In addition, approval of the plan and associated contract will prevent much more costly maintenance and repairs in the future.
