ACTION

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Receive a presentation from Park Planning Manager, Liz Ketabian regarding the Stables Restoration and

ITEM EXPLANATION:
Background
In December 2013, the City Council formally accepted the parks & recreation department’s needs assessment and
comprehensive action plan. One of the resulting short term action items was to update park master plans to ensure
that the amenities were consistent with the community vision that was identified in the needs assessment. The first
step towards implementing Phase 3 of the Leo Carrillo Ranch Master Plan, was to reevaluate the 1998 adopted master
plan to ensure that the proposed amenities will serve the needs of the community.
In April 2014, the city entered into a professional services agreement with KTU&A to prepare the Carrillo Ranch Phase
3 prioritization and cost estimate update. The city held a community workshop on July 23, 2014 during which
attendees) were asked to consider how the remaining Phase 3 projects should be prioritized based on the following
four focus areas:
• Deterioration of structures & Secretary of the Interior Standards
• Public use of the park - How does the community access it?
• Private events - How do service vehicles access the park?
• Community desires from the City of Carlsbad Parks & Recreation Department’s Needs Assessment and
Comprehensive Action Plan, December 2013
No new park features for the ranch were identified with the update, however a prioritization of pending projects for
the park were identified. The first priority project identified was restoration of the horse stables and reconstruction
of the chicken coup with an adaptive reuse for restrooms.
Status of Project Implementation
Funding was secured in the CIP FY 2015-16 budget for hiring a consultant firm specializing in historic preservation to
prepare the construction documents for the project and last September the city entered into a professional services
agreement with Page & Turnbull to prepare the construction bidding documents and updated costs for construction.
The scope of work associated with the restoration of the stables includes installation of new concrete flooring, repair
of existing clay tile flooring, repair of worn wood features, interior lighting and security system, drainage
improvements, and replacement of the 20-year-old wood shingle roof.
The work associated with the construction of the chicken coup includes new construction to replicate the structure
just southwest of the stables as it was in the late 30’s and 40’s. However, this time the structure will be repurposed
to serve as public restrooms for daily patrons who visit the park and for special events.
On April 12th 100% construction plans and specifications were provided by the consultant architect for the
project and are undergoing city review. It is anticipated that staff will return to City Council in June
seeking authorization for bidding the project.
