AI Contract Overview

The Sunset Whitney Recreation Area (SWRA) Master Plan is a community-driven public land conversion project by the City of Rocklin, California, transforming a former golf course into a multifunctional recreational space centered around the Hub Area off Midas Avenue. The development encompasses a wide array of amenities designed for diverse public use, including an 18,000-square-foot multi-use recreation center, 14 standard and 2 champion pickleball courts with lighting and bleachers, a Veteran’s Memorial with honor walls and a rose garden, an outdoor plaza featuring a pavilion and dry creek bed, an adventure park and mountain biking area, an amphitheater with natural seating, a natural preserve with oak woodlands and interpretive panels, a restored pond with boardwalks, an active play area with swings and a treehouse, and a dedicated maintenance facility. Additional features extend beyond the Hub Area to include a 1-mile loop trail, natural pedestrian and bike paths with mountain bike obstacles, Sunset Boulevard Park with multi-age playgrounds, and an Argonaut Avenue Play Area, all connecting to existing sidewalks and roadways via multiple formal access points along Midas, Argonaut, Whitney, and Sunset Boulevards. The project prioritizes the reuse of existing infrastructure such as cart paths and bridges, integrating them into new trails and walkways to reduce environmental disruption. Compliance with local and state environmental regulations drives all aspects of planning and construction, with strict adherence to Rocklin Municipal Codes covering grading, stormwater management, and erosion control, as well as state standards under CALGreen and the California Building Code. Environmental protections are central, requiring avoidance zones for special-status plant species, use of only natural fiber-based erosion controls, and prohibition of synthetic or photodegradable materials. Cultural resource mandates are uniquely rigorous: Tribal Cultural Awareness Training is mandatory for all field personnel, and UAIC-certified tribal monitors must be present during all ground-disturbing activities with authority to halt work immediately upon discovery of potential tribal cultural resources or human remains. Discovery of such items triggers immediate notification to the County Coroner and the Native American Heritage Commission, with strict protocols for handling, documentation using DPR-523 forms, and storage in secure, locked facilities accessible only to authorized tribal representatives. Construction hours are restricted to weekdays 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and weekends 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., with noise mitigation as a condition of approval. The City of Rocklin’s Community Development Department, led by Director David Mohlenbro
