FINANCIAL IMPACT: According to Town staff, a general estimate of cost for the concept plan <br />is $40-50,000, and this amount is requested at this time. The next phase after the concept plan <br />would involve construction drawings, architect fees, permits, grading plans and construction <br />administration for facility development. These activities are expected to total 10% of what would <br />be the remaining $845,000 allocated for this project in the 1997 County bond, and another 10% <br />is anticipated for project contingencies. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board appropriate up to $50,000 <br />to the Town for development of the concept plan, with the understanding that the remaining <br />$845,000 of the designated $1 million from the bond will be used toward constructing the first <br />phase of the park; as described in the May 31 letter from Town Manager Cal Horton to County <br />Manager John Link. <br />
