RECOMMENDATION TO COUNCIL
Staff recommends that the Council approve the plans and specifications for the Gibson Park Project and authorize staff to call for bids.
| BACKGROUND
The Gibson Park Project is located on the 13.75 acre site off of Roseville Parkway and Gibson Drive near the Galleria. The master plan was approved in November 2020. The approved master plan for this multi-generational sports courts complex includes 12 lighted pickle ball courts, 10 lighted tennis courts, 3 lighted full courts for basketball, two shaded gathering areas, two restrooms, informal turf areas, a walking/looped path and 4 exercise pods.
The first phase of the park includes at minimum, 3 lighted pickle ball courts and support features. Bids are scheduled to be opened in September 2022. Add alternatives are included to expand the initial number of pickle ball courts should the City receive competitive bids. Staff plans to return to Council in October 2022 to seek approval to award the project.
| FISCAL IMPACT
The first phase of work is estimated at $2.375-3.765 million depending on the alternates selected. Funds for this first phase have been approved using the Citywide Park and Neighborhood Park Development Funds through the FY2020-21 CIP budget. Maintenance costs will be approximately $16,000/year/acre. The funding source for maintenance will be provided by the General Fund.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Development of the Gibson Community Park was previously evaluated in the North Central Roseville Specific Plan (NCRSP) EIR (certified May 31, 1990, SCH No. 88053010), and identified in the associated NCRSP Specific Plan. Construction of the Gibson Community Park is within the scope of the project covered by the NCRSP Final EIR. As discussed in the NCRSP EIR, the EIR provides environmental analyses of community infrastructure and facilities, including parks, pedestrian bridges, and bike trails, to the extent applicable. Because the project is consistent with the NCRSP Final EIR and Specific Plan, no new effects would be expected to occur and all applicable mitigation measures from the NCRSP EIR will be implemented during the design and construction of the Gibson Community Park. As such, no additional environmental documentation is required.
