Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the Clerk of the Council to <br /> execute an agreement with Field Turf Inc. to upgrade the synthetic turf sports field at the Santa <br /> Ana Stadium in the amount of $125,000, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the <br /> City Manager and the City Attorney. <br /> 2. Receive and file Categorical Exemption for Environmental Review Nos. 2010-79(SA Stadium). <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> Every summer, to get the field in the Santa Ana Stadium ready for the football season, the City would <br /> spend $50,000 to re-sod the natural turf. On May 2007, the City of Santa Ana completed the <br /> installation of a $1.5 million synthetic sports field in the Stadium. The synthetic field has tremendously <br /> increased field usage by the soccer community and eliminated the need to close down the field for <br /> renovation. Field Turf, the supplier of the synthetic turf, provided an 8 year warranty on the product. <br /> Field Turf is an industry leader and highly respected synthetic turf manufacturing company that <br /> installs fields in many professional and NCAA Division I football stadiums. Recently, Field Turf <br /> inspected our Stadium turf and noted that the monofilament fiber is deteriorating faster than normal. <br /> Field Turf indicated this deterioration was due to a particular batch of monofilament fiber material that <br /> was provided three years ago. <br /> 25C-1 <br /> <br />
