This project will include re-keying all parks buildings to enhance usage of the recently installed Brivo key fob system. The current key system is approximately fifteen years old, with thousands of keys being issued over the years. In order to provide the security offered by the door fob system, previously issued keys need to be obsolete and lock cores changed. This request will continue efforts already started by securing an additional nineteen doors at parks and libraries with the Brivo fob system. This includes nine doors at the libraries, two doors at Canyon Country Park, two doors at Old Orchard Park, and six doors at the Santa Clarita Sports Complex.
This project enhances public safety by addressing internal emergency preparedness needs. Re-keying will provide enhanced security and controlled access to aquatic, recreation, and community buildings using the new Brivo fob system. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Public Safety.

Valencia Heritage Park,
24155 Newhall Ranch
Road, Santa Clarita, CA
91354
This annual project will provide for the removal and replacement of both multipurpose sports fields at Valencia Heritage Park. The project will remove the existing turf surface and excess soil, incorporate soil amendments, grade and compact the field for proper drainage, and install large roll hybrid Bermuda grass sod. Sod is necessary to quickly establish the new surface and improve upon the older varieties of grass currently being used.
All sports fields have a useful life, and by continuing this replacement program we will be able to bring these fields back to their original grading specifications, which will improve the drainage and function of the fields. Additionally, we will be able to properly amend the fields with needed materials to provide a better root-zone for turf as well as compaction resistance. This will be the second sports field replacement project in an annual effort to provide safe, high quality playing surfaces. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Sustaining Public Infrastructure.

This project will provide for the replacement of approximately 2,600 square feet of resilient surfacing at the Newhall Park playground. This project will also provide for the roll coat of the playground surfacing at Almendra Park, Oak Spring Canyon Park, Begonias Lane Park, Valencia Heritage Park, and David March Park. Roll coating reseals the rubberized surfacing and will effectively increase the lifespan of the surface by 5-10 years.
The rubberized playground surfacing at Newhall Park has been assessed in "poor" condition and is showing significant signs of wear, crumbling, and holes. The surfacing has been patched multiple times, extending the lifespan; however, the surfacing patches are no longer effective, and a full replacement is now needed.
The replacement will effectively provide for a safer amenity for the public to enjoy. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Sustaining Public Infrastructure.

This project will provide shade to the existing play area and create a shaded picnic area at Pacific Crest Park. Two separate shade structures will be installed in the playground: one 45' x 80' structure and one 30' x 20' shade structure. This proposed playground shade will be designed around the existing three story slide element, achieving 80 percent overall shade cover. In addition, there will be a new gazebo structure (20' x 40') with concrete walkways and three new picnic tables.
As part of the annual shade installation program, this project supports the Santa Clartita 2025 theme of Building and Creating Community. Overall the park and play area have little to no existing shade. This project will provide shade to the users at this popular playground site and increase the playable use time during summer months. Additionally, the new gazebo structure will increase overall park usability and allow for picnic and birthday rentals.

Central Park, 27150
Bouquet Canyon Road,
Santa Clarita, CA 91350
This project will fund the design for improvements to the Parks Maintenance Yard at Central Park. Desired improvements include functional work spaces for all staff, additional storage areas for materials and equipment, increased parking for personal vehicles, workout area for City staff, improved vehicle flow, capacity to support future electric charging needs, and to accommodate future growth within the Parks Maintenance team.
The existing building was built as part of the initial construction phase of the Central Park development in 2000. Interior tenant improvements were completed in 2010 to expand office space for the supervisory team and a portable classroom was transformed into a locker room for field staff. Components of the maintenance yard have been pieced together over the years, resulting in an inefficient use of space and non-ideal flow. In addition, the maintenance yard lacks adequate space for parking personal vehicles and is nearly at maximum capacity for City vehicle and equipment parking. To better optimize the space, the maintenance yard and building structure need to be reevaluated and reimagined for the needs of today and future growth of the City. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Sustaining Public Infrastructure.

In order to comply with the Statewide Trash Policy, this project installs devices in phases that will install full capture trash treatment as required in catch basins. A full capture system is a treatment control that traps all trash and particles that are 5 millimeters in diameter or greater. This project is the second phase of ten that will install up to 1,242 trash excluders in catch basins Citywide over the next nine years. Funds will provide for construction and associated soft costs.
In 2017, the City received a legal order to comply with the Statewide Trash Policy, which requires the prevention of trash greater than five millimeters from entering the Santa Clara River from specified, high trash generating land uses. Staff developed a plan that mapped out all of the current trash capture devices and pin-pointed new areas needing full capture systems. Trash is a significant pollutant that affects wildlife and our water supply, creates flooding hazards, and impacts public health. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Community Beautification and Sustainability.

Major thoroughfares,
residential streets, and
parks
This project will encompass the installation of more than 300 replacement trees and inventory data collection for 22,000 trees. Dedicated funding for inventory data collection will expedite the process to update the City's tree inventory with the goal that tree profile data for all City owned and maintained trees will be recorded by the end of Fiscal Year 2023-24. Collectively these actions effectively mitigate risk to our community and are key for successional planning to maintain a sustainable, healthy, vibrant urban forest.
Funding to support the Citywide Reforestation Program allows staff to: proactively address City trees that are too large to remain in the public parkway; install new trees along major thoroughfares, residential streets, and in parks; provide consistent young care tree maintenance (e.g. supplemental irrigation, restaking, sucker removal, tree well repair, and weed removal) to help increase survival rate; install irrigation infrastructure as needed to help improve long-term tree health; and continue efforts to update the City's tree inventory database. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 Community Beautification and Sustainability theme, action item: Complete the inventory of the urban forest to document tree locations and conditions, and use inventory to assist with future urban forestry planning.

This project will continue the installation of full capture trash devices to filter trash greater than five millimeters from entering the Santa Clara River from specific land uses that generate high trash levels.
This project is the third phase of a ten year effort that will install trash capture devices on 1,242 catch basins Citywide.
In 2017, the City received a legal order to comply with the Statewide Trash Policy, which requires the prevention of trash greater than five millimeters from entering the Santa Clara River from 1,242 storm drains in high trash generating land uses. Staff developed a plan that mapped out all of the current trash capture devices and pin-pointed new areas needing full capture systems. There are two existing projects to install 272 connector pipe screens in these storm drains. The City needs to address 349 more before 2025, and the remaining 621 more before 2028. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 Community Beautification and Sustainability theme, action item: Install trash capture devices to trap and prevent trash from entering storm drains and making its way into the Santa Clara River.

Santa Clara River
between Bouquet Canyon
Road and Interstate 5
This project requests funds for normal maintenance of arundo removal in the Santa Clara River. The Santa Clara River Conservancy, Stillwater Sciences, and SCV Water Agency are partners who will use our lessons learned, field research, and best practices to produce success criteria, which will be applied to river parcels and will produce a list of the most cost-effective parcels for arundo removal.
When complete, this project will increase water availability in Santa Clarita. Arundo is a fast-growing, perennial bamboo that can reach 30 feet in height and uses 3-4 times the amount of water of native plants (11.75 acre feet per infested acre). It serves as "walls" in many river encampments, and recent fires in the river bed show arundo catching fire from these encampments. Arundo survives drought and flooding, spreads wildfire into adjacent neighborhoods, and grows back quickly after disaster. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Community Beautification and Sustainability.

Santa Clara River
This federally funded project will complete design for the eventual widening widening of the northbound bridge and replacement of the southbound bridge to eliminate its classification of structurally deficient and functionally obsolete. Both bridges will be constructed to accommodate a forty-four foot travel width, with additional shoulders and sidewalks. This request will provide for the Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) permit renewal and the required update to the biological surveys that were done during the original permit application.
Prior to the annexation of the project area into the City, the County of Los Angeles began the project design efforts. Since then, the City has assumed the completion of engineering, permitting, and construction effort. The ACOE permit needs renewal and requires an update to the biological surveys.
Keeping this permit current is necessary until construction is complete. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Sustaining Public Infrastructure.

This will help accommodate commuters and other users of the Vista Canyon Metrolink and bus station.
The Vista Canyon Road Bridge will provide access from Soledad Canyon Road to the future transit- oriented development, Vista Canyon. This will include the Vista Canyon Metrolink Station and Bus Transfer Center, which will serve as the Santa Clarita Valley’s major eastern transfer point for commuting passengers and will reduce automobile trips along adjacent freeways. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Enhancing Economic Vitality.

Impact on Operations:
Sierra Highway at the
Santa Clara River
This project will provide for needed revisions to the design plans and specifications generated by the constructability review of the Sierra Highway Bridges Over the Santa Clara River project. The project will complete design for the proposed widening of the northbound bridge and replacement of the southbound bridge to eliminate its classification of structurally deficient and functionally obsolete. Both bridges will be constructed to accommodate a 44-foot travel width, with additional shoulders and sidewalks. This request will provide for the structural plan review, agency plan check fees, and final constructability review prior to submitting the Caltrans request for authorization for construction and bid advertisement.
Prior to the annexation of the project area into the City, the County of Los Angeles began the project design efforts. Since then, the City has assumed the completion of engineering, permitting, and construction effort.
Updated plans and specifications will need a final review of the structural design and constructability prior to bid advertisement. This project supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Sustaining Public Infrastructure.

South Fork Trail
This project will repair and replace deteriorating existing fence lines on major trail sections with concrete base lodge pole fencing. Approximately 2,200 feet of fencing from the Valencia Boulevard trail entrance to the ramp for the paseo bridge over Creekside Road will be replaced. This section contains the original fencing from the trail construction that is over 25 years old.
Wooden trail fencing along the South Fork Trail is well over 25 years old and in deteriorating condition. The fencing requires frequent replacement due to age and weakening structure. Additionally, this fencing is outdated and does not conform with current City standards for trail fencing. This project is part of an ongoing phased project to rehabilitate poor trail fencing along the South Fork Trail and supports the Santa Clarita 2025 theme of Sustaining Public Infrastructure.
