​Livermore Area Recreation and Park District, California

The Livermore Area Recreation and Park District (LARPD) is a multifaceted agency created in 1947. It provides recreation and park services for a 245-square-mile-area serving over 115,000 people, and manages over 40 parks, facilities, trails, and sites. LARPD wanted to enhance its asset management practices to promote effective use of financial and physical resources and to develop a proactive approach to asset management. As part of this effort, LARPD requested assistance from Kayuga in developing an asset management plan that would establish the data foundation, document its current state of assets, predict its future immediate and long range asset needs, and provide data backed justification.

LARPD’s asset management plan included the following systems:

• Buildings/Recreation Facilities
• Campground (Camp Shelly in South Lake Tahoe)
• Vehicles and Equipment
• Parks
• Trails

LARPD contracted Kayuga to perform asset inventory and condition assessment. Kayuga helped to identify immediate and long term asset needs, estimate replacement costs, develop life-cycle cost logic, perform risk assessment, and identify high risk assets for all of LARPD assets. These steps provided LARPD with guidance in comprehending the appropriate budget required to address the high risk assets and sustain the delivery of asset services. With the asset management plan, LARPD is able to proactively manage and budget its future asset management needs.
