The purpose of the project is to maintain landscape features at two (2) community parks as further described in this RFP under Section VI, Scope of Work.

B. Background Contra Costa County (County) was founded in 1850 and is located in the north portion of the East Bay region, with its 19 cities and unincorporated areas. Most of the county’s population is located along the urban corridors of state highways 4 and 24 and interstates 80 and 680. The County is comprised of 716 square miles of land and 88 square miles of waterway with a population of 1,049,025. The County also owns, operates, and maintains bridges, dams, 660 miles of road, and 150 miles of streams, channels and other drainage facilities as well as maintains 93 County buildings. The Public Works Department is one of the largest departments in the County with nineteen (19) divisions. For more information on the County of Contra Costa, visit our website at: http://www.contracosta.ca.gov/.

The County’s Public Works Department operates and maintains a variety of parks throughout the county in addition to more than 1,200 miles of hiking trails within dozens of parks spread across the county.

The Montarabay Community Center and Ballfield Complex is located at 2250 Tara Hills Drive in San Pablo.
