EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The perimeter fence at the Scholl Canyon Ballfields facility is nearly 50 years old and in need of replacement. The intent of this item is to adopt the project specification and advertise for the Scholl Canyon Perimeter Fencing Replacement Project. The work includes the replacement of 2,500 linear feet of chain-link fence around the perimeter of the facility.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Resolution adopting Specification No. 3960 for the Scholl Canyon Perimeter Fencing Replacement Project and direct the City Clerk to advertise for bids.
ANALYSIS
The Scholl Canyon Ballfields Complex is located at 3200 East Glenoaks Boulevard within the Scholl Canyon Park. The Ballfields were originally developed in 1974, as part of a 55- acre improvement of the Scholl Canyon Recreation area. The complex includes three baseball ballfields, concession building, maintenance yard, and parking lot.
The proposed new fencing will be a like-for-like replacement of the existing galvanized six-foot tall chain-link fence. The existing fence has been in-place since the complex was created and is now beyond its useful life. Specifically, the fence has significant rust and damage due to tree uplifting, ground-shifting, and general wear and tear. The fences and gates have been mended many times over the years and now require an entire replacement. The removal and installation will be executed in phases to maintain the safety and security of the facility.

The perimeter fencing at the Scholl Canyon Ballfield Complex is needed to secure the facility when it’s not being used. It protects the park from vandalism and from people driving vehicles onto the fields and damaging the playing surfaces. The fencing also protects park patrons by preventing them from accessing potentially dangerous slopes and hillside areas.
