BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Currently, the Parks Operations division does not have a climate-controlled space for the Park Maintenance and the Golf Maintenance team to get out of the heat to cool down in the summer months. Park Maintenance and Golf Maintenance currently work out of a lean-to-structure built onto the original stone and metal shop in Landa Park. This structure requires substantial repairs, including a roof replacement due to constant leaks, flooring, insulation, appropriate men's and women's restrooms, and HVAC. Funding was allocated in the FY 2026 budget to demolish the existing lean-to structure and replace it with a modular building with adequate office space, breakroom and restroom facilities. The existing stone structure will remain.
Public Works has collaborated with parks on the necessary spaces to be included in a modular building and received a proposal from Mobile Modular Management Corporation for a 24’x74’ modular building which includes two private offices, an open work area, breakroom and two restrooms with showers under BuyBoard Cooperative Contract #732-24 pursuant to Texas Government Code Chapter 791. The total expenditure includes the building, delivery, installation, decks, steps, ramps, and skirting. The remaining budget allocated in this fiscal year will be utilized to demolish the existing structure.
