Update / Follow-up on the news
Construction is scheduled to begin early next month on new restrooms on the west side of Central Park near the sports activities area.
Public Works Director Ismile Noorbaksh said work on the new facilities is expected to be completed by early May.
The City Council awarded a $73,940 contract for the restrooms to Lloyd Engineering Corp. of Placentia. Nine other bids were received, the highest being $121,500.
Noorbaksh said the city had estimated the construction cost would be about $85,000. A $50,000 grant from county will cover part of that, with the rest coming from community development funds.
