Recommendation
By Minute Motion:
1. Approve the purchase and installation of a single vault, prefabricated restroom
from CTX Incorporated (CTX), Spokane Valley, Washington, and associated
landscape improvements at Cahuilla Hills Park in an amount not to exceed
$31,380.56 (Project No. P714-11).

Commission Recommendation
Discussion at several Parks and Recreation Commission meetings covered the possible
expansion of park amenities at Cahuilla Hills Park and included the addition of restroom
facilities. On April 4, 2011, the Commission voted 7-0 to direct staff to submit the construction of.
restroom facilities to the City Council.
Background
The use of the tennis courts, pickleball courts, and trails at Cahuilla Hills Park has increased
substantially in the past few years. With the increased use, came requests that a restroom to be
installed. During the Fiscal Year 2011-2012 budget discussions, the City Council approved
funding in the amount of $77,000.00 for the installation of a restroom at Cahuilla Hills Park.
Staff Report
Cahuilla Hills Park Restroom
February 23, 2012
Page 2 of 2
Staff investigated the cost of installing a conventional restroom at Cahuilla Hills Park, but found
that the addition of a sewer line and electrical service would far exceed the approved funding for
the project. Staff then met with CXT, and discussed the feasibility of installing a vault toilet at the
park. CXT vault toilets are used by many municipalities and federal agencies throughout the
western United States where remote areas limit the availability of utilities. CXT is also an
approved vendor for the California Municipal Award Schedule (CMAS). CMAS allows
municipalities to purchase directly from the manufacturer with pre -approved pricing that
eliminates the need for a formal bidding process.
CXT proposed the installation of a Gunnison model vault toilet at a cost of $29,055.56. The
Gunnison toilet is a split faced concrete block building with a textured concrete roof. The toilet
meets federal, state and City of Palm Desert building codes. The unit is also equipped with an
interior solar light for night use. CXT will install the unit, which includes digging the vault hole,
installing City -supplied base rock, setting the building itself, and the backfilling and leveling of
the surrounding area. The City will provide access to the site and landscaping work before and
after the installation at a cost of $2,325.00. The total cost of the project is not to exceed
$31,380.56.
Fiscal Analysis
The installation of restroom facilities in the amount of $77,000.00 was approved by City Council;
however, staff has been able to achieve a savings of $45,619.44 by using a vault restroom at a
cost of $31,380.56 (building plus landscape costs). Funds for the purchase and installation of
the restroom are available in Account No. 430-4628-454-4001, Park Facilities/Cahuilla Hills. In
addition, staff estimates the yearly janitorial and vault pumping cost to be $18,600.00, and will
budget funds for maintenance in Account No. 110-4611-453-3320, Parks Maintenance.

offloaded onto the site. Any requirements to lift the building over obstacles or not having the ability of the truck to be right next to the crane could
incur additional charges. Installation crew then performs all necessary excavation, backfill, compaction, site grading, and connection of utilities (if
