RE: Black Berry Farms Recreation Center
Dear Steve:
As you requested, we are pleased to offer this revised
proposal for the preparation of a site topographic survey
and plans and specifications as outlined below for the
renovation of the existing picnic areas adjacent to Stevens
Creek at the City's Black Berry Farms Recreation Center.
The existing picnic areas consist of various sinks, bar-
becues and electrical lighting that do not meet current
code. The scope of our services is to upgrade the water,
sanitary sewer, electrical and extension of gas service to
replace the existing propane gas used at the gas barbecues
in the six different picnic areas adjacent to Stevens Creek.
Also included in the scope of services is the connection to
the city's newly installed domestic water system as a backup
to the well system that is presently being used, the instal-
lation of a grease trap at the snack bar and a grease trap
and new sewer line bypass for the restaurant and clubhouse
building located on Stevens Creek Boulevard. Also included
is the general undergrounding and rewiring of the services
to the existing restrooms, snack bar, pool equipment and
restrooms for the pool complex.
In making a site visit with Dave Arrigoni, the electrical
engineer whom we propose to use as a subconsultant for the
electrical portion of this project, he observed many code
violations in and about the areas of our proposed services.
In doing a field reconnaissance with the city staff, we
would like to point out these violations even though they
are probably not to be included within the scope of the
services as proposed.
Also included within the scope of this proposal is the
preparation of bidding documents and review of shop drawings
and periodic construction review with permit inspection
being provided by city forces.
