Description

Resolution to award design and engineering contract in the amount of $98,500 to HGM Associates, Inc for the design and engineering of the Yankee Stadium Replica Field, Project R23-05 at Bahnsen Park.
Background/Discussion

The City Council approved the funding of the Yankee Stadium Replica Field at Bahnsen Park, Project R23-05 for $300,000 in the FY 23 CIP.  The scope of the design is to complete a scaled representation of the the baseball field at Yankee Stadium and certain improvements to represent the architecture of the stadium.   The goal is not to create a scaled representation of the entire stadium (e.g., stadium seating, box seats, building facade, etc.).  The replica will be a scaled version of the stadium field and allow for youth sports leagues to compete on the field.

 

Staff will present the design to Council during a Council Study Session  once it is completed.

Approve the resolution to authorize, empower and direct the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a contract in the amount of $98,500 for the Yankee Stadium replica field at Bahnsen Park, Project R23-05 to HGM Associates, Inc.
