The City of Desert Hot Springs is inviting qualified professional landscape architecture and civil engineering consultants to submit proposals to provide design services for the Skyborne Park Design Project.

The selected consultant will prepare plans, specifications, and an engineer's estimate (PS&E) to support the design and construction of park improvements at the Skyborne Community. The scope of work includes the following: o Redesign the park layout to incorporate existing conditions, including the 1/2 -acre municipal well site and adjacent retention basin. o Relocate or modify proposed amenities, including tennis court(s), to accommodate the well site footprint. o Design and construct a baseball diamond, open turf areas, playground space, picnic areas, walking paths, and a designated dog park. o Integrate drought-tolerant landscaping, efficient irrigation systems, shade structures, and CPTED principles. o Develop grading and drainage improvements to ensure proper site runoff, particularly around the well site and retention basin areas. o Ensure ADA-compliant access throughout the park and connectivity to surrounding public sidewalks. The consultant will be responsible for developing detailed and constructible PS&E documents for the Skyborne Park Design Project, taking into account site conditions, utility coordination, and compliance with City standards, accessibility regulations, and water-efficient landscape requirements. These improvements aim to provide highquality recreational amenities for the community while adapting the original design vision to meet current infrastructure and land use conditions.
