Award Contract to C.S. Legacy Construction, Inc., for the Civic Center Improvements Project and Approve the Amendment to the Fiscal Year 2019-20 Capital Improvement Program December 17, 2019 Page 2 Art Ishida Landscaping, which was constructed in 1970. In preparation for its 50th anniversary in May 2020, renovations and upgrades are needed to the structure, lighting and garden and for ADA Accessibility. The Mall Landscaping project will address the current dirt area between Santa Ana City Hall/Ross Annex and the City of Santa Ana Main Library. The County of Orange recently installed a new chilled water pipeline throughout the Civic Center, which resulted in the removal of all the silk floss trees and grass areas. This provided an opportunity to re -landscape the area with a water -wise demonstration garden representing five California landscape themes, interpretive signage and a forum for programming where the public can be educated on water conservation and the use of climate appropriate planting. These projects together will enhance the area surrounded by the Orange County Courthouse, City of Santa Ana Main Library, and Santa Ana City Hall and will be a tremendous asset to our Civic Center. It provides new and welcoming outdoor spaces, an extension of the Library, and is a visible continuation of the new Orange County Administration building and mall improvements recently completed on the east side of Ross Street.
