Parker, Director of Community Services DATE: April 12, 1999 SUBJECT: Campos Verdes Park Conceptual Master Plan and Selection of a Park Name PREPARED BY: (:~Todd Holmes, Development Services Administrator RECOMMENDATION: 1. That the Community Services Commission receive and file a report on the Campos Verdes Park Conceptual Master Plan. 2. That the Community Services Commission select a name for the Campos Verdes Park. DISCUSSION: The Campos Verdes Development is conditioned to construct a 3.15 acre neighborhood park for dedication to the City. This development is located in the northern portion of the City near the intersection of Winchester Road and Margarita Road (see attached vicinity map). The City Council approved Campos Verdes Specific Plan Amendment Number One on March 23, 1999. Completion of the park will be required at the 78t" building permit. If the project moves forward as planned, the park should be dedicated in about 18 to 24 months. The attached conceptual site plan describes the park amenities. This park has been designed primarily for passive recreational activities and is intended for use by residents who live near the park. The proposed improvements include a small parking lot, picnic tables and shelters, bar-b-ques, a concrete walk around the perimeter of the park and security lighting. The park will also feature two play structures; one for ages 2-5 and another for 5-12 year-olds. To facilitate use by disabled individuals, the play equipment, as well as the overall park, will be fully compliant with the provisions of California State Title 24 and the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The park will also be landscaped with trees, shrubs and turf. The conceptual plan shows a 195' x 330' soccer field overlay. This field is intended for practice and informal games only. The James L. Day Middle School is located directly across the street from this park. A joint use agreement with the Temecula Valley Unified School District is pending which would allow joint use of 8.7 acres of sports fields at the school. Temecula Community Services District Resolution 92-08 established a policy for the naming of parks and recreational facilities (please see attachment). In accordance with this policy, a list of recommended names for future parks was prepared last year (attached). The Meadowview area to the east has equestrian usage so an equestrian name from the list might be appropriate. In addition to the list of names, staff would also suggest that the names "Campos Verdes Park" and "General Kearney Park" be considered. The Commission may wish to consider a name other than the listed choices. The recommended name will be brought forward to the Board of Directors for review and ratification. MAP / / RESOLUTION NO.

Ruse, Deputy Director of Community Services RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission receive and file a report on the status update of the museum construction and exhibit design. BACKGROUND: Construction of the Temecula Valley Museum is continuing. The tile entry in the rotunda and gift shop areas has been installed. The hardscape entry way in completed with handrails yet to be installed. The cabinetry work is neadng completion and work for the elevator has begun. Extedor landscaping is also underway. The contractor, electrician and exhibit designers are working together to develop a flexible lighting plan for installation of the track lighting system. The carpeting has been delivered to the site and will be one of the last items installed. Staff antidpates completion of the construction phase of this project in May, 1999. Staff has negotiated with the Temecula Valley Museum and Tony Tobin for the purchase of some of their artifacts for use in exhibits for the museum. Staff anticipates having a finalized agreement to present to the City Council for approval in April, 1999. This will allow the City to inventory, catalog, care for, and use the artifacts in permanent exhibits. Think Jacobson and Roth, the exhibit design consultant, is working with the project committee to determine the stories to be told by the museum exhibits and displays. The consultants are currently working with the artifacts themselves to inventory what is available and to determine how best they may be used to narrate the rich history and heritage of the Temecula valley. At the last project committee meeting held on February 24, 1999, the consultants presented preliminary drawings showing proposed story lines and some conceptual exhibits that might help tell those stories. The committee also discussed the desirability of capturing video and audio interviews with community members who would share their memories and stories of a younger Temecula valley. These resources would be archived and shared with the library for those interested in historical research. On March 23, 1999, the City Council considered and approved the Community Services Commission's recommendation that the rotunda area be named after Tony and Mildred Tobin to honor and thank them for their contribution to the community. An appropriate display to so recognize the Tobins will be included as part of the overall design of the museum rotunda.

Ruse, Deputy Director of Community Services RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission receive and file a report on the status of the proposed annexation of Vail Ranch and Redhawk. BACKGROUND: In August, 1998, the City of Temecula filed an application with the Local Area Formation Commission (LAFCO) to annex the Redhawk and Vail Ranch Specific Plan areas into the City. This action was in response to the request of the residents of the proposed annexation area. Upon receipt of the odginal request from the residents, the City conducted a survey of the residents in that area to determine their desire to annex to the City. Staff also completed a lengthy analysis on the feasibility of annexation, including a study on the impact on the Community Services District (TCSD) for services and maintenance and the related rates and charges applicable to provide those services to the annexed area. In June, 1998, City staff members conducted four workshops in both Redhawk and Vail Ranch to present information and answer questions from the residents. On December 10, 1998, LAFCO approved the application and the City proceeded with the annexation process. The next step was to notice property owners in the proposed annexation area and set a Public Hearing to allow public testimony of interested parties and provide for a protest to the action. Staff again conducted workshops in Vail Ranch and Redhawk on March 15 and 18, 1999, respectively. On March 23, 1999, the City Council conducted the Public Hearing. The City received one written protest to the action. Three residents from the annexation area spoke in favor of the proceeding. The next step will be for the City Council to call for an election to be conducted on November 2, 1999 to consider the question of annexation to the City and the Community Services District and to consider the imposition of the TCSD Special Tax and Rates and Charges. The election will be structured so that Redhawk and Vail Ranch will vote individually on the Rate and Charges that effect their respective developments. Both areas must approve the Special Tax and the Rates and Charges by a 2/3 super majority in order for the annexation to be successful. If the annexation is successful, it will become effective on July 1, 2000. The increase to the City's population is estimated at 8,000. Upon successful annexation, the TCSD would become responsible for the services currently provided to the annexation area by the County through CSA 143. These services included parks, median and exterior slope maintenance, street lighting, trash and recycling services and recreational services. The TCSD would assume responsibility for 36.5 acres of developed parkland. This is comprised of one 1.6 acre park and one 14.9 acre park in Redhawk and one 3.2 acre park, one 2.2 acre park and one 14.6 acre park in Vail Ranch. The TCSD would also assume responsibility for approximately 1,764,000 and 1,269,000 square feet of slopes and medians in Redhawk and Vail Ranch, respectively. \\TEMEC_FS201 \DATA\DEPTS\CSD\RUSEP~AGEN DAShannexation status - csc.doc Each parcel within the annexed area would pay the TCSD's Special Tax as it is levied against each assessable parcel currently within the City of Temecula. The maximum rate at which this tax may be levied is $74.44 per year per equivalent dwelling unit (EDU). The rate was levied at $68.44 per EDU for FY 1998/99. TCSD Rates and Charges would also be levied against those improved parcels which receive service within each development area. The maximum proposed Special Tax and Rates and Charges for each area are shown below.

Staff will also continue to be available by phone or in the office to answer individual questions about annexation. \\TEMEC_FS201 ~DATA\DEPTS\CSO~RUSEP~AGEN DAShannexation status - csc.doc
