Commons Park Picnic Area renovation to begin soon

The Commons Park Picnic Area Renovation Project was approved nearly four years ago by the Town Council as part of the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Capital Improvements Program Adopted Budget.

Fast forward to the council's April 12 meeting during which they awarded a construction agreement of $302,825, with a 10% construction contingency of $30,283, for a total amount not to exceed $333,108 to GradeTech, Inc. of Castro Valley. Seven companies bid for the project which had an approved budget of $329,000 with GradeTech coming in the lowest.

Located at the intersection of Moraga Road and St. Mary's Road, the Moraga Commons Park project, according to a staff report by Parks and Recreation Director Mackenzie Brady, Public Works Director/Town Engineer Shawn Knapp, and Senior Civil Engineer Bret Swain, will include "the removal of existing and installation of new Portland Cement Concrete pavements and curbs; minor grading and earthwork; minor placement and compaction of aggregate base; tree removals; potable water line relocation; installation of trash receptacles, picnic tables, BBQ grills, a utility table, and a shade structure; and all appurtenant work as shown in the plans and specifications." There will also be an installation of an ADA pathway leading from the parking lot to the all-access playground. The project is expected to begin in the coming weeks.
