BACKGROUND:

The Clyde community has requested that the Contra Costa County Department of Public Works, Special Districts Division, provide playground equipment for Big Oak Tree Park located along Kilburn Street in Clyde. Currently, Big Oak Tree Park is landscaped, but does not have any amenities for children. The proposed playground equipment will be for children ages two to five years old and will have a rubber safety surfacing around it. Ground disturbance and excavation will occur to an anticipated depth of two to three feet. No utility relocations, traffic control, vegetation removal, or real property transactions are anticipated.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Delay in approving the project may result in a delay of design, construction, and may jeopardize funding.
