Junipero Serra Playground Project Update News [February 19, 2008]
Progress
on the Junipero Serra Playground and Clubhouse project is very
good. The art tile project installation is complete as is the
exterior stucco work. During the next few weeks the Contractor will be
installing
the glass, finishing the interior sheetrock, doing some exterior
grading and subgrade work, and installing the play equipment which is
already
on-site. After that the safety surfacing will be installed
and the Contractor will continue with interior finish work within the
clubhouse (lights, fixtures, cabinets & countertops, flooring,
tile, paint, etc.). Exterior painting may begin March 10th, weather
permitting.
The target completion date was originally the end of May but we have added some additional work to make the eastern section of ramp down to the ballfield ADA accessible so that work may add about two weeks to the schedule (6/14). Just to recap - the tennis and basketball courts will be resurfaced and the chain link fencing mesh surrounding it will be replaced with new black vinyl clad mesh as part of the renovations and RPD staff will be doing some work on the ballfield so that the whole park is freshened up prior to the opening of the playground and clubhouse.
