SUMMARY
On July 1, 2024, the City and HARD’s Maintenance of Understanding (Agreement) for the maintenance and operations for specific Lighting and Landscape Assessment District (LLAD) Parks went into effect. Through the Agreement, HARD assumes the responsibility of operating and maintaining the park sites per an agreed-upon annual maintenance cost funded from the respective LLAD budgets but capital investments are the City’s responsibility, unless explicitly stated. In Spring 2024, HARD released a competitive bid to renovate basketball and tennis courts at various parks throughout Hayward. One of the parks included in the scope of work is Twin Bridges Park (Park), which is in LLAD 7. The renovation proposal HARD received from bidders was significantly more affordable than the proposals the City received. Staff is requesting the approval to enter into a MOU to reimburse HARD for the basketball renovation costs.
