RECREATION EXPANSION AND TOMLINSON STADIUM UPGRADES The design work for Recreation Expansion and Tomlinson Stadium Upgrades projects were combined to maximize overall efficiencies. D.A. Hogan & Associates was selected through an RFQ process to design the projects, refine the project budgets, and produce documents for construction. DA Hogan has been working closely with the Lydig|Mahlum New Residence Hall design team to ensure a seamless design and look across the North Campus projects. The design will prioritize pedestrian access and parking components between these two projects. The construction of the Recreation Expansion and Tomlinson projects will be bid as one to attract stronger bidders. The project will build a track & field facility in the southeast corner of North Wildcat Way and 18th Avenue. The creation of this facility is the first significant expansion of student recreational facilities since the construction of the Student Union and Recreation Center in 2006. It will be the only outside recreation facility with lighting. The expansion will include a “throws” area for javelin, shotput, hammer, and discus. University Recreation will manage the facility. The proposed completion date for the project is September 2018. Priorities for the facility include the following: • Development of a track & field facility that CWU meets specifications for NCAA Division II, championship competition • Restroom facilities • Seating to accommodate guests and fans • Artificial turf on the interior of the track to accommodate intramural sports. • If possible, the facility may include a small office. Budget/Financing. In November, the Board of Trustees endorsed this project at an estimated cost of $4 million. Since November, continued discussions of stakeholders identified issues and opportunities that have increased the estimated cost of the project by approximately $2 million. Unanticipated Costs. This project has incurred six unanticipated cost increases. The City of Ellensburg has mandated that this project pay $75,682 in traffic impact fees. This amount was based on a traffic-impact analysis performed winter of 2018 by Fehr and Peers Transportation Recreation Expansion
