TCSD CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CIP) 2.1 Discuss Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for FY 1991-92. SHAWN NELSON provided a report. COMMISSIONER NIMESHEIN expressed his concern that the Parks and Recreation Commission had only general input on the figures involved with the TCSD Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), and that the fact that three options were going to the City Council for discussion had not been relayed to the Commission. He also stated that these options should be brought back to the Commission before going to Council. COMMISSIONER NIMESHEIN expressed his concern that the Commission's position had not been represented. He said that the Commission never did have the opportunity to develop a list of priorities, and said he would like to know where the figures are coming from. He requested that the Commission's role be defined. He requested that Agenda packets be delivered earlier. COMMISSIONER BRODE expressed that her understanding of this Commission was that its function was to have and make recommendations to the City Council. She said she does not understand why when Council runs out of time, the Commission has not been allowed time to form their opinion in the form of a Recommendation to Council. She said the Commission should be called for a special meeting when there is an item that needs special attention. COMMISSIONER HARKER said she had heard the Capital Improvement Plan was going to City Council at the May 14, 1991, and that she was concerned that she was not even aware that it had been changed from May 28, 1991, until she was advised from another person. She asked staff to allow more lead time on matters to be discussed. COMMISSIONER HILLIN said he would also like more time on matters to be discussed and recommended to City Council, and suggested that decisions should not be made by City Council before the Commission has a chance to meet. He said he cannot participate in Staffs recommendations to City Council for the Capital Improvement Plan, and that the Parks and Recreation Commission cannot approve the plan because the Commission did not have a plan. SHAWN NELSON stated that he would convey the concerns of the Commission to the City Council at the May 14, 1991 meeting. He stated that staff was not made aware of the CIP being moved up to the May 14, 1991 City Council Meeting until Thursday, May 9, 1991. He stated there is still time for the Commission to provide input. Mr. Nelson suggested that the Commission take the time now to discuss the options and give direction to him at this time for inclusion in his presentation to the City Council. The Parks and Recreation Commission discussed the TCSD Capital Improvement Plan and developed a Recommendation to City Council as follows: PRMIN05/13/91 -2- 06/03/91 COMMISSIONER BRODE made a motion that the Parks and Recreation Commission direct staff to take to the May 14, 1991 Board of Directors meeting, the recommendation for the following Capital Improvement Plan: $3,500,000 to the acquisition and development of park land; $500,000 for Sports Park Parking Improvements; and, $3,400,000 for the development of the Community Recreation Center, seconded by COMMISSIONER HILLIN.

SHAWN NELSON provided a staff report. He stated that the Community Services/Parks operating budget that will be considered by the Board of Directors at the May 14, 1991 meeting, does not include the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). COMMISSIONER BRODE made a motion that the Commission recommend to the Board of Directors that the budget proposed by staff be approved.

All Commissioners gave input regarding several different points of interest in some of the sessions attended. PRMIN05/13/91 -3- 06/03/91 COMMISSIONER BRODE requested that Item No. 6 on the agenda be moved up so she could join in the discussion because she had to leave early. CONCESSION OPERATIONS AT SPORTS PARK 6.1 Discuss various concession options at Sports Park. SHAWN NELSON provided a staff report. COMMISSIONER HILLIN asked that it be noted in the Minutes that no one from the Little League organizations attended this meeting. After considerable discussion, the Commission felt that the TCSD should operate the concessions to bring accountability to the receipt and application of funds. A percentage of the funds could be donated to youth non-profit organizations. COMMISSIONER BRODE made a motion that a Selection Committee be formed as recommended by staff, and for staff to distribute a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to Concessionaires to have the TCSD operate the concession, seconded by COMMISSIONER HILLIN. AYES: 4 COMMISSIONERS: Brode, Harker, Hillin, Nimeshein ABSENT: 1 COMMISSIONER: Kirby NOES: 0 COMMISSIONERS: None COMMISSIONER NIMISHEIN made a motion that Commissioners Harker and Brode be on the Selection Committee, seconded by COMMISSIONER HILLIN.

ITEM NO. 6 TEMECULA COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT AGENDA REPORT TO: PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION FROM: SHAWN D. NELSON DATE: JUNE 10, 1991 SUBJECT.' CAPITAL PROJECT STATUS REPORT DISCUSSION: Phase I of the Sports Park Lighting Project is 95% completed. We are in the process of completing the specifications to add one (1) light pole to the upper Rancho Vista field to accommodate night soccer play. The specifications should be completed this week, and the light is scheduled to be installed within forty-five (45) days. Phase II of the Sports Park Lighting Project is 85% completed, The lights on the North and South fields need final aiming adjustments and final inspections from Building and Safety and Southern California Edison. This project should be complete within thirty (30) days. Bid opening for the Sports Park Restroom/Snack Bar Project was held on May 30. Unfortunately, no bids were submitted on this project even though twelve (12) plan were purchased by contractors. Staff will re-advertise as quickly as possible and schedule a bid opening within sixty (60) days. The Sam Hicks Monument Park Curb and Gutter Project began last Monday, May 24. This project includes curb, gutter, and sidewalk improvements to Moreno Road and Mercedes Street, which borders the park site. The specifications called to relocate three (3) trees that were within the improved sidewalk area. After consulting with our Maintenance Superintendent, Tad Garrety, the chances of the trees surviving after the transplanting are non-existent. The contractor has agreed to plant three (3) new trees within five (5) feet in height of the existing trees. This will ensure that this project will not adversely affect the aesthetics of the park. Finally, staff is working on an initial bike path route within the City. Along this route, there are areas where lanes can be painted on both sides of the street. However, there are also streets that are too narrow for painted lanes. Staff is recommending a combination of painted lanes and bike route signs to provide an initial bike route. Staff will be bringing this item to the Parks and Recreation Commission at the July 8, 1991 meeting. ITEM NO. 7 TEMECULA COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT AGENDA REPORT TO: PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION FROM: SHAWN D. NELSON DATE: JUNE 10, 1991 SUBJECT.' SPORTS PARK COMPLAINTS RECOMMENDATION: That the Parks and Recreation Commission: Direct staff to obtain price quotes to paint the tops of the aluminum poles at Sports Park and prepare a written response to every property owner that participated in the petition. FISCAL IMPACT.- Unknown until the quotes can be obtained. DISCUSSION: As of the date of this report, the TCSD has received approximately fifteen (15) complaints from property owners adjacent to Sports Park in the Starlight Ridge development. The property owners are concerned about (a) the installation of lights at Sports Park; (b) advertising signs that have been temporarily installed on the outfield fences of two (2) Rancho vista fields during the Little League season; (c) providing concessions at Sports park; and (d) the Community Services/Parks assessment. The property owners suggest that the light poles be lowered to reduce light glare in the evenings; the signs be removed or taken down after each game; the snack bar be closed; and eliminate these property owners from paying the Community Services/Parks assessment. Staff is suggesting that price quotes be obtained to paint the tops of the aluminum lights a dull color to reduce the reflecting sun light during the day. However, according to Assured Electrical, the light poles will oxidize within one (1) year, which will eliminate the reflecting light. Also, lowering the light poles would increase the upward glare. The light poles were designed at the optimum level of glare control, while insuring a high level of safety for participants. Further, we have strictly adhered to a curfew of 10:00 P.M. on activities as directed by the Board of Directors. The snack bar offsets the operational costs of Little League, and the Community Services/Parks assessment is paid by all city property owners to improve the quality of life for city residents by providing expanded recreational opportunities. I have enclosed a copy of the petition for your review. MEMORANDUM TO: MEMBERS OF THE TEMECULA Copies to: CITY COUNCIL, ET AL. R. J. Parks FROM: OWNERS & RESIDENTS OF HOMES P.H. Birdsall BORDERING THE SPORTS PARK K.F. Lindemans P. Moore D. F. Dixon HAY 2 2 ~99] s. Nelson G. King G. Thornhill [,~MUN[IY SERV~C[!? A. Marshall SUBJECT: PETITION FOR CHANGES IN THE OPERATION OF THE SPORTS PARK ON RANCHO VISTA ROAD, TEMECULA, CALIFORNIA. This Petition represents a vigorous protest and request for changes in the current conditions which are systematically and progressively eroding the livability and market value of properties surrounding the Sports Park. The recently installed liqhts: Contrary to what was told to participants at the December 1990 Council meet- ing, there are too many lights. They are placed too high on the poles and shine directly into the houses on the south side of Agena Street at night. This, to- gether with the glaring reflection from the sun on the chrome shades, effectively limits the use of all rooms facing the park for a total of 16 hours out of every 24 daily. Recommendation: Have all lights lowered and adjusted to shine downward on the fields; and all shades coated to eliminate the glare into surrounding houses. The permanent advertising signs surrounding the base- ball diamonds are repugnant and cheapen the neighbor- hood. Supposedly there is a moratorium on advertis- ing signs in Temecula. None of you would tolerate such signs facing your property, so please do not impose them on us; Have them removed. Recommendation: Let each team supply its own sign, to be hung when they play each time, and removed when they finish (as some teams are now doing). They and their spectators see the signs only for a few hours, while the residents have to look at them con- stantly. The snack bar and the adjoining equipment storage shed should be removed. That is not a commercial zone. As long as items are being bought and sold, the enterprise is commercial, regardless of the disposition of the profits therefrom. Additionally, there is a fire hazard attendant to the use of multi- ple electrical appliances. Waste and excess stuff is stored street-side with no screening, while lattice has been installed parkside. This would not be con- doned in a residence and should not prevail here. To: Members of the Temecula City Council, et al~ - 2 - May 15, 1991 Special assessment for park use and maintenance: This should be applied to those who use the park. They are the ones who leave ever-increasing litter, and stand by, or pass, youngsters climbing and break- ing mature trees at the entrance. Recommendation: The assessment should be elimin- ated. If that is impossible, there certainly should be no increase for those who have no use for, and are already burdened with, the undesirable aspects of the sports park. Progress is one thing, and we are all community minded; BUT there is a limit! Why should we, who are just as busy as any of you, be forced to devote time to preparing petitions, let- ters and signs and attending protest meetings to maintain rules and regulations previously in force; and in accordance with which we purchased our homes? Any of you, and all the individ- uals who so enthusiastically promote these changes, would sup- port our position were they and their investment personally involved. Therefore, we, the signers of this Petition, urgently request your consideration of the above facts; and implementation of their correction without delay. Name Name Address COMMENTS:
