Spreckels Veterans Memorial District-Memorial Park Improvements

The Spreckels Veterans Memorial District is undertaking improvements at Memorial Park located at 57 Llano Avenue, Spreckels, California, to upgrade and remodel the existing sport court to meet ADA accessibility standards and to perform a seismic retrofit on the deteriorating handball court structure, repurposing it for park equipment storage. These improvements aim to restore full functionality and public access to the park for residents and community members. The project is being administered under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), with the Spreckels Veterans Memorial District acting as the lead agency, and has been determined eligible for categorical exemptions under CEQA sections 15300.1, 15301, 15303, and 15304, which cover ministerial permits, existing facilities, minor construction of small structures, and minor land alterations. A Notice of Exemption was filed and certified on August 4, 2025, with supporting documentation submitted to the Monterey County Clerk-Recorder and the Office of Planning and Research. The project does not involve federal contract clauses, federal funding mechanisms, or formal procurement details such as contract value, pricing, evaluation factors, or standard federal contract types. No payment or invoicing procedures, contracting officer representatives, or federal accounting codes are specified. The only monetary transactions referenced are administrative filing fees totaling $62.00 and $64.50, paid to the county for CEQA documentation processing. The primary point of contact is Shaheen Jorgensen, Director/Secretary of the Spreckels Veterans Memorial District, who is responsible for coordination and compliance. The work will be performed on-site at the park, with no delivery, packaging, labeling, or logistical requirements specified beyond the physical construction and retrofitting activities. The project is currently in a forecast status with no formal solicitation number, contract award mechanism, or bid submission process outlined, indicating an internally managed, grant-funded improvement initiative rather than a competitive federal procurement.
