Lincoln Athletic Center has two lighted fields. The lights on the northerly field (Field No. 2) were the only ones changed with this contract. There have been complaints from the residents southerly of San Joaquin Hills Road about glare from the Lincoln fields. The lights that shine in this direction cover Field No. 1 and were not changed. Two light poles that have a total of eighteen unshielded lights shine toward residences on Lighthouse Lane southerly of San Joaquin Hills Road. Residents in this area have complained about the intensity of the lights shining into their homes. Staff has visited the area at night and concurs that -there is excessive light spillage into this residential area. A project to change the lights covering Field No. 1 will be proposed for next year. In the interim, the contractor and light supplier have been contacted to determine what the cost would be to change the lights on the two poles that are impacting the Lighthouse Lane residents. That cost is estimated to be $25,000. The contractor has indicated that the change could be made in about 4 weeks. Staff recommends that they be authorized to retain the contractor to change the lights as rapidly as possible at a negotiated fee of less than $25,000. The Peninsula Gateway Parks, Account No. 7021- C5100372, has a surplus of $30,000 and it is recommended that this amount be transferred to the Park and Field Renovation, Account No. 7021 - C4120431. Surplus funds not spent on lights will be used at other park locations needing field renovations. Both of these accounts are in the Park -In -Lieu Fund. =0 su d, PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT Don Webb, Director By: {� Horst Hlawaty, P.E.
