Appendix <br />ATTACHMENT 1 <br />SCOPE OF WORK <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA <br />REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS <br />FOR <br />ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN SERVICES <br />FOR A PARK MASTER PLAN & NEW AQUATICS FACILITY <br />At MEMORIAL PARK <br />RFP NO.23-061 <br />INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND <br />Memorial Park, dedicated in May 1950, is a 16.3-acre city park located in the central -south area of <br />the City of Santa Ana, surrounded by residential properties. It is bordered by Santa Ana Memorial <br />Park Drive to the west, Flower Street to the east, West Saint Gertrude Place to the north and West <br />Anahurst Place to the south It falls within the Santa Ana Memorial Park Neighborhood Association <br />limits, but being classified as a city park, it serves the entirety of the city of Santa Ana. The park <br />was dedicated by former Governor Earl Warren as a living memorial for future generations to honor <br />"the heroic lives who carried the battle for democracy". <br />The park is currently comprised of four ballfields, concession/restroon building, basketball courts, <br />volleyball court, handball court, fitness equipment area, playground area, band shell and lawn areas, <br />walkway, lighting, and the city's largest municipal swimming pool. The park is an island <br />configuration surrounded by parking. <br />Planning for Memorial Park began in 1947; development began shortly thereafter and the new <br />facilities were added to the park system in 1950. The community center and pool are both of the <br />original 1956 installation and are a traditional "bath house" type design. Existing facilities are <br />very old and deteriorated; deferred maintenance is now deferred capital, Facilities must be <br />rebuilt, as routine maintenance and renovations are no longer effective. The swimming pool shell <br />and walls of the pool equipment room have cracked. In addition to the buildings age and poor <br />condition, the floor plan layout does not meet today's programming needs. Much of the site <br />hardscape is cracked and there are numerous drainage issues. Amenities that have been added <br />over the years did not follow a master plan, and their layouts do not efficiently utilize the site. <br />This project will examine the entire east half of Memorial Park, from the east ballfield fence line <br />to Flower Street, including all components within this range, and provide a strategic method of <br />redevelopment. This shall include complete demolition and rebuilding the aquatics facility (bath <br />house, pool, pool equipment building).
