Project Description:

Abandonment of the existing aquifer storage and recovery Well (ASR-8) drilling and completion of one replacement ASR well (ASR-8R) at the City of Chandler Tumbleweed Underground Storage Facility. The proposed replacement well, ASR-8R, is located within the City of Chandler Parks and Facilities Service Center and Aquatic Administration located at 650 Ryan Road, Chandler Arizona. The cadastral location for ASR-8R is the southwest 1/4 of the southwest 1/4 of northeast 1/4 of Section 10, Township 2 South, Range 5 East [D92-5)10 ACC].

Because the well is located within an active facility, the City of Chandler is requesting the Contractor provide drilling site layout options and haul routes that will minimize impacts to the existing facility and other park features. Since the well is located in proximity to the City of Chandler Municipal airport, the Contractor is required to procure Federal Aviation Administration permits prior to mobilization. The Contractor shall be responsible for construction and restoration of the well site which may include removal and construction of an existing CMU wall, landscaping, site grading, and asphalt repair. The goal is to prepare a well site that promotes a safe work area during well drilling and construction with minimal impacts to the Parks and Facilities Service Center.

Project Description:

Beginning in the 1890s, cotton, dairy, sheep, citrus, alfalfa, sugar beets, and other agricultural pursuits shaped our community, and Dr. A.J. Chandler founded the city with a vision of innovation in land development, water control, agriculture, and community development. In 1999, a portion of Tumbleweed Park was preserved in order to tell the story of the East Valley’s rich agricultural history.

Tumbleweed Ranch is comprised of 19 acres in the southeast corner of Tumbleweed Park, at 2205 S. McQueen Road, Chandler Arizona and features four historic structures, a small stage and amphitheater, demonstration agricultural fields, and antique agricultural equipment displays. The purpose of the ranch is to create a vibrant cultural destination that anchors the southern half of the existing Tumbleweed Park campus and explores Chandler’s agricultural roots.  Its overall focus will be the history of Chandler’s culture of innovation and will celebrate and honor this history and the people who have contributed to it.

The Ranch has a multi-phased improvement plan that supports daily activity for Chandler residents as well as special events. The Tumbleweed Ranch phasing and zones are defined in the Master Plan, completed in March 2024. This project includes construction of Phases 1 and 2, described as follows:

•    Phase 1: This scope of work includes demolition and general site improvements such as grading, irrigation improvements, parking lot improvements, retention basins, tree salvage, new tree planting, fencing, a fire access road, utility services, shade structures, and relocation of and site improvements to the Red Shed Theater.

•    Phase 2: This scope of work includes improvements to the historic farmhouses, surrounding landscape and hardscape improvements, service yard improvements, retention basins, pedestrian paths, utility services, irrigation improvements, and a new arbor structure.

As the location for this project is in the vicinity of two other ongoing capital projects, the Ryan Road Improvements from the Union Pacific Railroad Crossing to McQueen Road, and improvements to A.S.R. Wells 11 and 12, it is the City’s expectation that the Contractor is willing to coordinate construction activities with the City’s other contractor partners.
