The scope of work includes site demolition and clearing, grading, hardscape installation, park amenities, landscaping, utility connections, ADA compliance features, and crime prevention through environmental design. The plans contain comprehensive details for concrete pavements (Type A and Type B), hexagon pavers, gravel mulch, artificial turf (Types A and B), poured-in-place rubber safety surfacing (Types A, B, and C), perimeter fencing (Type A aluminum fence with 6-foot height and Type B wood sand fence), shade structures, entry gates with arbor features, lighting systems, signage, play equipment including Goric balls in various sizes, landscaping with trees and groundcover plants, and irrigation systems. The project requires substantial tree compensation for removed trees, with a total required caliper of 26 inches and 122 inches provided through replacement plantings.

The bid document was revised on June 30, 2026, with a submittal date of October 2, 2025. Contractors are responsible for developing additional structural details and calculations required for permitting and construction, as well as submitting cost estimates for design services in addition to implementation costs. The contractor must verify site conditions, conduct a pre-construction meeting with the owner, landscape architect, and all subcontractors, and call 811 to locate all utilities prior to construction. All plant materials and product samples, including mock-ups of concrete pavement finishes, artificial turf colors, rubber surface colors, and furnishing specifications, require landscape architect approval before delivery and installation. The plans indicate survey discrepancies may exist and note that unforeseen changes during construction shall be resolved through a formalized Request for Information (RFI) process and change orders. The contractor assumes responsibility for all utility connections to existing service at the southern edge of the site, including the electrical meter, panel housing, and all connections within the site, with no new service costs expected.
