Brentwood approves Castle Contracting agreement for Hanley Park slope repair, expects FEMA reimbursement
Summary
The Board approved Resolution 1523 to hire Castle Contracting LLC for phase‑2 slope repairs at Hanley Park—base construction $809,500 plus 10% contingency ($89,450)—with staff saying the project should be reimbursable through FEMA (ceiling cited at $900,000).
The Brentwood Board of Aldermen voted unanimously Oct. 7 to approve Resolution 1523, authorizing an agreement with Castle Contracting LLC to perform slope-repair and related trail and fencing work at Hanley Park (phase 2).
City staff presented a project estimate of $809,500 for the work and recommended a 10 percent contingency of $89,450. Staff said the expense is intended to be reimbursed through FEMA, and that the FEMA ceiling is $900,000; the project total as presented remains below that threshold.
Kristy Braekman of Castle Contracting told the Board the firm conducted additional geotechnical testing after encountering unsuitable soils on a previous bank-stabilization phase and that the design accounts for anticipated remediation. Braekman recommended a contingency to allow for unexpected conditions in the active-creek work.
Board members moved and approved the resolution by roll call vote of 7–0. City staff said they will return with contract documentation as required and pursue FEMA reimbursement for eligible costs.
