SUMMARY
Community members and elected officials have long held the dream of building a new South Hayward Youth and Family Center at the corner of Tennyson and Ruus Roads, referred to as the Stack Center. For the past seven years, the City and its partners have worked to make this dream a reality.
In 2019 and 2020, the Council authorized the City Manager to execute a contract with RossDrulisCusenbery, Inc. (RDC) for master planning, design, and construction documents for the Stack Youth and Family Center. The documents are nearing completion. At the same time, staff has been working to identify funding for construction. The City has received three grants and now has sufficient funding for Phase I construction on the south end of the project. To phase the construction, RDC needs to prepare two separate sets of construction documents. This report provides an overall project update and seeks Council approval to: 1) accept a Caltrans grant of $2,647,000 for outdoor elements in Phase I; and 2) execute a contract amendment with RDC to phase the project. The contract amendment would not exceed $377,800. The project has sufficient funding to cover this cost.
