Below are some of the highlights from that update. <br />• It has been over 52 years since the Santa Ana Stadium has undergone any major <br />construction <br />• On January 19, 2016, a contract for structural concrete repairs was awarded with an <br />estimated completion date of May 2016. <br />• In late March 2016, the contractor discovered significant structural deficiencies, which pushed <br />the completion date back to September 2016. <br />• In the effort to minimize field use impacts for sports organizations, staff met with sports <br />organizations to share an alternative field plan. <br />• Staff, in partnership with the Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD) and Santa Ana <br />College (SAC), made every effort to accommodate the annual graduation and <br />commencement ceremonies at Centennial Park. <br />The contractor has completed the scope of the contract associated with the west side of the <br />stadium. Currently, the contractor is scheduled to complete the scope of the contract for the east <br />side of the stadium as well as the press box by August 31, 2016. There will still be esthetic work <br />remaining after August 31, 2016, but the contractor has indicated that the work will not impact the <br />use of the stadium. The work can be completed when the stadium is not in use. City staff is <br />coordinating with the contractor to complete all aspects of the contract. Fortunately, the Stadium <br />will be ready for the start of the football season with the first game of the season on September 1, <br />2016. <br />19H -1 <br />
