DISCUSSION
On June 7, 2016 the Santa Ana City Council received an update on the construction work
occurring at the Santa Ana Stadium. Below are some of the highlights from that update.
• It has been over 52 years since the Santa Ana Stadium has undergone any major
construction
• On January 19, 2016, a contract for structural concrete repairs was awarded with an
estimated completion date of May 2016.
• In late March 2016, the contractor discovered significant structural deficiencies, which pushed
the completion date back to September 2016.
• In the effort to minimize field use impacts for sports organizations, staff met with sports
organizations to share an alternative field plan.
• Staff, in partnership with the Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD) and Santa Ana
College (SAC), made every effort to accommodate the annual graduation and
commencement ceremonies at Centennial Park.
The contractor has completed the scope of the contract associated with the west side of the
stadium. Currently, the contractor is scheduled to complete the scope of the contract for the east
side of the stadium as well as the press box by August 31, 2016. There will still be esthetic work
remaining after August 31, 2016, but the contractor has indicated that the work will not impact the
use of the stadium. The work can be completed when the stadium is not in use. City staff is
coordinating with the contractor to complete all aspects of the contract. Fortunately, the Stadium
will be ready for the start of the football season with the first game of the season on September 1,
2016.
