The City of Palm Desert repaved, beautified, and improved the Presidents’ Plaza East and West Parking Lots. These aging, heavily used lots served businesses and their patrons on El Paseo, Highway 111, and adjacent frontage roads between Larkspur Lane and Portola Avenue. The parking lots underwent several improvements. Structural section rehab of 261,000 sq-ft of parking lot, plus landscaping, ADA ramps, and sign front. Utility upgrades for water, sewer, & electric. The Southstar team tracked the discovery of numerous buried manmade objects/utilities that required ongoing field design of existing and new facilities. This on our feet thinking, allowed us to work around many of the underground facilities and saved the Agency $500,000.
