3. MATTERS FROM STAFF OF THE ROSEMEAD SUCCESSOR AGENCY
A. Construction Administration and Support Services — Downtown Plaza Project
In June, 2013, the Oversight Board approved Resolution 2013 -0006 which confirmed the
selection of E.C. Construction for the completion of the Downtown Plaza Project. The
Downtown Plaza project includes the construction of a public plaza in the area between City
Hall and the County Library. The project will include new, decorative hardscape, improved
landscape, and multiple water features. The plaza will complement existing parking lot
improvements that were completed in spring 2012. It is hoped that once the plaza is
completed, it will become a valuable community resource with the addition of seating areas,
interactive water features, and space for public events.
