It was moved by Commissioner Henz, seconded by Commissioner Meyler to
approve the procedure for the establishment and continuing operation of the City
of Temecula Wall of Honor.
Commissioner Nimeshein said he understand the procedure to be based on a
most valuable player achievement as opposed to people who provide a good
deed. Commissioner Nimeshein said he had a concern about choosing one
good deed over another and asked if the procedure could be modified to choose
more than one individual or even none.
The Commission as a whole had a lenghty discussion regarding the procedure
and the limits placed on the Committee for selecting one individual for the honor
when possibly none or more could qualify for the honor in a given year. The
Commission also discussed the cdteria for qualifying and suggested that possibly
more detailed criteria for being nominated for this honor.
Director Parker said if that is the decision from a majority of the Commission, the
Commission could approve the agreement with a modification to the verbiage.
Development Services Administrator Todd Holmes said this document was set-
up by the sub-committee so that the Wall of Honor Committee could review and
tally the points without having a meeting. Todd said the changes the
Commission is suggesting would require the committee to meet.
Director Parker said based on the changes being recommended by the
Commission, he suggests staff take these modifications back to the Wall of
Honor sub-committee for their discussion and review. Staff will bring this item
back to the Community Services Commission for their review and approval at a
later date.

second to the motion.

Cities Conference to be held in Monterey, California.
Chairman Edwards and Commissioners Meyler and Miller responded they would be
attending. Commissioners Henz and Nimeshein said they would not be attending this
year.
COMMUNITY SERVICES COMMISSIONERS REPORT
Commissioner Henz stated that in his observation Temecula is a very sports minded
community and less of a culturei/arts minded community, based on community
attendance at cultural/arts events. Commissioner Henz said although the City has
drafted a Cultural Arts Master Plan, the goals are not being acted upon, and when there
is a cultural event, the turn-out is in very low numbers.
Director Parker said in his fifteen years in the recreation field, he has never seen a
following in arts as he has in sports. He said he believes the City has taken the first step
by establishing the Cultural Arts Master Plan.
Commissioner Meyler said this years Annual Arts Festival was well attended and
supported by the community.
Commissioner Meyler stated that he attended a Planning Commission meeting at which
a mural at a "South of the Border' mexican restaurant, which is proposed to built at the
Promenade Mall site, was being reviewed by the Commission. Commissioner Meyler
said he approached Debbie Ubnoske of the Community Development Department about
bringing approval for these projects to the Community Services Commission.
Commissioner Meyler said that he thought the mural would fall under the Cultural Arts
Master Plan's art in public places.
Director Parker said he has seen this type of mural on the same restaurant in other cities
and it is very attractive. He said the mural is not used to advertise the restaurant. He
said he it does line up with some of the goals and objectives of the Cultural Arts Master
Plan.
Chairman Edwards said he would staff to look at lighting more basketball courts in City
parks and facilities. He asked that staff place this issue on a future agenda for
discussion.
Director Parker said that staff has intentionally decided not to light outdoor basketball
courts. He said that basketball can be an aggressive sport and that the games can get
heated and language can get offensive.
Chairman Edwards said he was involved with the sound and lighting at the Community
Recreation Center for the Arts Festival. Chairman Edwards said although the lighting
system is good, it is impossible to light the first 10' feet of the stage. Chairman Edwards
F:\DEPTS\CSD\MINUTES\071299.doc 5
said he would like to explore the possibility of designing additional lighting at the
amphitheater.
ADJOURNMENT

Mobile Recreation Program Update
PREPARED BY:
Julie Pelletier, Recreation Superintendent
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Community Services Commission:
Receive and file a report on the Mobile Recreation Program known as Rec R.O.C.Ks.
DISCUSSION: Staff members within the Recreation Division are pleased to announce
that the Mobile Recreation Program known as Rec R.O.C.K.s (Recreation Opportunities for Our
City's Kids") was extremely successful. The overall purpose of the program was to provide
a variety of recreation opportunities during the summer months to Temecula's youth ages
seven to fourteen (7-14).
This exciting program was offered at (4) park sites throughout the community. The four (4)
park site locations were Margarita Park, Winchester Creek Park, Riverton Park, and Pala Park.
The program was implemented Tuesdays through Fridays from 9:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Staffing
included Recreation Leader, Jimmy Duty and Recreation Assistant, Judith Howell. Staff
rotated to two parks per day for a 2,5 hour time period, twice per week. Monday served as
a day for staff to prepare programs and activities, as well as re-stock the City's vehicle used
to transport both staff and supplies.
This successful drop-in mobile recreation program began on July 1, 1999 and concluded on
August 20, 1999. Although the duration of the program was short-term, both children, as well
as their parents welcomed the opportunities the program offered. Rec R.O.C.K.S.s provided
organized sport programs, art and craft projects, theme activities, as well as fun and exciting
games and contests to approximately 15 - 40 youth per day.
Upon the scheduled completion of this seasonal program, staff took the opportunity to
complete an overall evaluation of the program, The evaluation concluded that this type of
mobile recreation program is very beneficial to the community by enabling youth throughout
the community to participate in organized, as well as supervised recreation programs in
neighborhood park settings close to their homes.

Wolf Creek Park Specific Plans - Conceptual Master Plans
PREPARED BY:
Todd Holmes, Development Services Administrator
RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission receive and file a report
on conceptual park plans for the Wolf Creek Specific Plan.
Discussion:
The Wolf Creek Development is a large specific plan project proposed for the southern area of the
City, near the intersection of Pauba Road and Wolf Valley Road (see attached vicinity map). The
Wolf Creek project will be conditioned to construct two parks and a linear park for dedication to the
City. One of the two parks is 14 acres in size and is designed for active sports and the other park
is 4.5 acres and is intended for passive recreational activities. The linear park is located along a
major interior loop mad. It is 41 feet in width and approximately a mile and a half long. Three park
"nodes" are located along the linear park. The nodes are about a half-acre in size and contain turf,
picnic table and a small play structure. In addition, the developer will dedicate one and one-half
acres of land adjacent to Kent Hintergardt Memorial Park that the City will develop as additional park
parking. This project will be presented to the Planning Commission and the City Council in the next
few months. If the project proceeds as planned, the parks should be dedicated over the next two
to five years.
Five acres of dedicated parkland is required for every 1,000-person population increment in order
to satisfy the Citys Quimby parkland dedication requirements. Based on the 2,144 units proposed
in Wolf Creek, the project will be required to dedicate a minimum of 28.21 acres of parkland. Staff
will negotiate with the developer to determine the timing of the dedication of the parks. The
dedication will be tied to the issuance of a specific number of building permits. In addition to
satisfying the Quimby requirement for the dedication of land, the construction of the parks will give
the developer a credit towards the park and recreation component of the City's development impact
fees.
The attached conceptual site plans describe each park's amenities. The large park contains parking,
restroom/concession buildings, four lighted tennis courts, two lighted soccer and two
softball/baseball fields, play equipment and walkways. The passive park contains play equipment,
two half-court basketball courts, picnic tables and shelters, walkways, security lights and small open
turf areas for passive play. To facilitate use by disabled individuals, the play equipment, as well as
the other amenities in each park, will be fully compliant with the provisions of California State Title
24 and the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Reclaimed Water Use Agreement
PREPARED BY: Kevin T. Harrington, Maintenance Superintendent
RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission approve the Agreement with
Rancho California Water District for the use of reclaimed water at Rancho California Sports Park.
DISCUSSION: Based upon current legislation a person or public agency, including a state
agency, city, county, district, or any other political subdivision of the state shall utilize reclaimed
water for irrigation purposes if it is readily available. California Water Code, Article 7, Section
13550 has found and declared that the use of potable domestic water for non-potable uses,
including but not limited to, cemeteries, golf courses, parks, highway landscape areas, and
industrial and irrigation uses, is a waste or an unreasonable use of the water within the meaning
of Section 2 of Article X of the California Constitution, if recycled water is available which meets the
following conditions:
1. The source of recycled water is of adequate quality for these uses and is available for these
uses.
2. The recycled water shall be furnished for these uses at a reasonable cost to the user.
3. The use of recycled water from the proposed source will not be detrimental to public health.
4. The use of recycled water for these uses will not adversely affect downstream water rights, will
not degrade water quality, and is determined not to be injurious to plant life, fish and wildlife.
The City and Rancho California Water District (RCWD) have been working very closely to develop
a plan to utilize reclaimed water for the irrigation of selected City parks. RCWD has recently
completed the installation of a reclaimed water line in Margarita Road adjacent to Rancho California
Sports Park. Staff would like to evaluate the use of reclaimed water at our North/South ballfields,
upper soccer field and the surrounding slope areas. Staff feels the location, the variety of plant and
tuff types, and the soil profiles will be ideal to determine the effectiveness of this alternative water
source. RCWD has agreed to pay all costs associated with the retrofit of the existing irrigation
systems to meet City and State requirements for the use of reclaimed water.
Temecula Valley Unified School District currently uses reclaimed water at Chaparral High School
and has not experienced any major problems with its use. Several golf courses in the area also
R:\harringk\agenda rpt\RCSP Reclaimed Water Use Agreement
utilize this water source and have for some time and are pleased with the current quality of water
and service.
Staff strongly supports the use of an alternative water source for the irrigation of our landscaped
areas. The use of reclaimed water is a cost effective, reliable method of helping to meet
California's water supply needs. The cost of reclaimed water is $121.43 per Hundred Cubic Feet,
almost half the cost of potable water, which is presently $230.84 per Hundred Cubic Feet. This
potential savings should outweigh any additional maintenance costs associated with the use of
reclaimed water.
With the development of infrastructure to distribute reclaimed water it will become available for use
at other sites throughout the City. The use and evaluation of reclaimed water at the Rancho
California Sports Park will provide the City with some very valuable hands on experience, as well
as, first hand knowledge of any limitation that may be associated with its use, thus allowing for
more informed decisions as to where and how this alternative resource can best be utilized in the
future.
The City attorney and staff have reviewed the Agreement and find it to be satisfactory.
Mr. Andrew Webster of Rancho California Water District is here tonight to provide a breif
overview of the Agreement and the use of reclaimed water as well as answering any questions.

Temecula Skate Park Status Report
PREPARED BY:
Julie Pelletier, Recreation Superintendent
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Community Services Commission:
Receive and file the Temecula Skate Park Status Report.
DISCUSSION: In June 1996, the City of Temecula was proud to report that the
construction of the Temecula Skate Park was complete. Residents, as well as non-residents
were anxious for the park to officially open. On June 26, 1996 the park opened to skaters
wishing to be the first to skate this "state-of-the-art facility. City staff received numerous
calls from interested individuals, other municipalities, and businesses interested in
skateboarding. Although the calls were often to request general information, many callers
were amazed that the City of Temecula was able to make the dream of having a skate park
a reality.
Today, the park continues to be used by many. We are pleased to announce that following
three years of operation, the Temecula Skate Park continues to be a successful operation.
Both residents and non-residents enjoy the amenities the park has to offer and staff still
continues to receive at least two calls per week from interested individuals, municipalities and
businesses desiring information.
Prior to the actual opening of the park, staff determined that safety was to be of high priority.
It was agreed upon that the park would be staffed with individuals trained in CPR and First Aid
and that all participants would be required to wear safety gear. Rather than the City managing
rental equipment, the City contracted through a local business to provide such service.
In terms of operations, in November 1997 the equipment rental concessionaire resigned and
staff now operates the rental of equipment. Staff also continues to maintain park safety and
monitors admissions. The Temecula Skate Parks average daily attendance fluctuates
seasonally. Staff has noted that through extremely cold, rainy and/or hot days attendance
does decrease. A recent evaluation completed by staff confirms that during the summer
months the average attendance on Saturdays is approximately 50 participants per day, and
during the week the average daily attendance is 30 participants.
The total cost to operate the park during fiscal year 1998-1999 was approximately 950,340.
The revenue generated from park admissions and equipment rentals was approximately
839,710. Therefore, the net cost to the City to operate the park in fiscal year 1998-1999 was
approximately ~ 10,630.
In conclusion, staff wishes to report that the overall status of the Temecula Skate Park
continues to be favorable.
