Construction Update for June 20

The construction site was quieter this week, but progress continues to renovate the sport courts at Luther Burbank Park. Keep reading for this week’s construction update.

Drainage Investigation

On Monday, staff from the City’s Parks Maintenance, Sewer, and CIP teams met on-site to investigate the condition of the existing stormwater infrastructure. The team used a push camera to inspect the pipes from three entry points and confirmed they are still in good condition. Next week, FieldTurf will begin installing the new ACO Sport trench drain system, which will connect to the existing pipes to improve stormwater drainage at the facility. FieldTurf will also install a new storm drain cleanout to make it easier for Parks Maintenance to service the pipes in the future.

Conduit Installation

Service Electrical, a subcontractor of FieldTurf, also finished installing electrical conduit around the perimeter and up the middle of the courts last week, and FieldTurf backfilled the trenches this week. Junction boxes and electrical handholes will be installed later during construction.

As a reminder, no other electrical work is planned during this construction phase. Stantec Engineering is still developing a full lighting design, and an update will be shared on Let’s Talk when the design is ready to present to City Council for additional direction.

Other Work This Week

Excavation of the hill is complete, and FieldTurf also continued removing sawcut asphalt and other construction debris.

This project remains on schedule; view construction photos here.
