Rollins and Associates for the redesign of the Southlake Softball Complex. Public
Hearing.

City to move forward with an extensive evaluation of the current facilities, and redesign
of the complex to accommodate four lighted softball fields, restroom/concession area,
additional parking and other amenities necessary for the Softball Complex. This contract

also includes an extensive evaluation of existing facilities (i.e., irrigation, lighting,
parking, etc.) to ensure the maximum use of existing structures and the minimum amount
of new construction. Staff recommends approval of the professional services contract
with Shrickel, Rollins and Associates for a 12-week completion period in an amount not
to exceed $26,400. The Park Board recommended approval 7-0 at its Jan. 14, 2002
meeting. City Council will consider the contract at its Jan. 22, 2002 meeting. Mr.
Hugman further informed the Board that efforts will be made to provide an area for the
Southlake Lacrosse Association, but it will depend on arranging schedules, field
positioning, field sizes needed, driveways, etc. He stated that Shrickel, Rollins, and
Association will provide a couple of different design alternatives for review. He also
stated that providing for lighted practice fields at Bicentennial Park for both softball and
lacrosse is being considered.
President Evans requested that staff include on the next SPDC agenda an item to discuss
the design details to date.
