DATE: December 6, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Sara Somogyi, Director of Recreation and Community Services
Candice Cheung, Assistant Director of Recreation and Community Services
SUBJECT: LA SALLE COLLEGE PREPARATORY PROPOSAL FOR IMPROVEMENTS
TO ORANGE GROVE PARK TENNIS COURTS
CEQA: Not a project
Recommendation: Accept
SUMMARY
La Salle College Preparatory (“LA SALLE”) secured bids to improve the Orange Grove
Park tennis courts at 1440 N. Baldwin Avenue. LA SALLE will enter into a contract with the
vendor and pay for the improvements to replace three center tie-downs and to resurface
and reline the tennis courts. In exchange for these improvements, LA SALLE will enter into
an Adopt-a-Facility Agreement with the City for a period of 10 years, and has requested
annual use of three tennis courts at Orange Grove Park from August through April,
Monday-Friday from 2:30-5:30pm, and 8:00am-4:00pm during the month of July.
It is recommended that City Council accept the La Salle College Preparatory proposal for
improvements to the Orange Grove Park tennis courts, subject to the conditions of the
Agreement, at a value of approximately $68,900.
DISCUSSION
Over the past 20 years, LA SALLE has utilized the Orange Grove Park tennis courts in
Arcadia for their programming. In 2011, LA SALLE resurfaced the tennis courts under an
Adopt-a-Facility Agreement. Since 2011, this location has served as the home site for LA
SALLE youth practices and games, without creating any conflicts with the general public
or contract class use.
LA SALLE has recognized some areas of potential improvements for the facility and
submitted a proposal to improve the tennis courts. LA SALLE provided the Recreation &
Community Services with a written request to complete the contracted improvements at
their own expense, without any additional cost to the City. The proposal includes a quote
to clean the courts, resurface and paint the courts, stripe the courts, and replace three of

the center tie-downs for the nets. In return, LA SALLE has requested priority use for three
of the five tennis courts at Orange Grove Park, from August through April, Monday-Friday,
between 2:30-5:30pm, and from 8:00am-4:00pm during the month of July. LA SALLE
understands they must continue to follow the City’s bi-annual field allocation process and
required procedures. In addition, LA SALLE will have an Adopt-a-Field Agreement
(Attachment “B”), which outlines the dates and times of the proposed use. The Adopt-a-
Field Agreement is a cooperative agreement between the City and LA SALLE which
outlines that the organization will make certain improvements in lieu of the customary
hourly fees for the use of the facility. This type of agreement is commonly used with the
City’s three little league organizations for the baseball field used for play and for tennis
courts, where there is not a hourly fee established for the facility use by private
organizations such as LA SALLE.
The proposed improvements will take approximately seven days to complete, with the work
concluding in late-December 2022 or early-January 2023.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
This project is categorically exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act
("CEQA") under Section 15301 Existing Facilities, as the project involves maintenance to
existing tennis courts, with no expansion of use.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no fiscal impact to the City of Arcadia since the contract will be entered into
by LA SALLE with the contractors completing the proposed work. The City will require a
written agreement from LA SALLE outlining the proposed work, insurance requirements,
and business license requirements. The City will provide oversight of the project including
a review of plans and approval of completed work. The value of this work is approximately
$68,900.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council accept the La Salle College Preparatory proposal
for improvements to the Orange Grove Park tennis courts, subject to the conditions of the
Agreement.
