AQUATIC SCHEDULE - SUMMER 2002
RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission approve the aquatic facility
schedule of use at the Community Recreation Center (CRC), Temecula Elementary School (TES)
Pool and Chaparral High School (CHS) Pool.
DISCUSSION: Plans have been underway for the aquatic schedule for calendar year
2002 since August 2001. With the opening of the CHS Pool, there has been increased request and
demand for swim programs and use of the facilities. Over the past several years our community
need for additional pool time for lap swim programs, swim lessons and public family swim have also
increased with our growing community. As a result, staff is indeed pleased to be able to program
and open the new Chaparral High School Aquatic Facility.
In August 2001, TCSD staff began the process of coordination and planning for the use of three (3)
aquatic facilities for public use, high school swim team use and recreational swim team use. As one
might imagine, with a new facility coming on line, requests for swim team use has also increased.
Staff has taken all of the requests from the two high school swim teams and the two recreational
swim teams, and the City's need for expanded public aquatic programs, into account and prepared a
schedule of use for these facilities that we will present to you tonight. In scheduling these facilities
we first consider our charge, which is to address the recreational aquatic needs of the general
public. The City's public swim program offers lap swim, learn to swim programs, water aerobics,
family night swim, synchronized swimming and public swimming. Secondarily, we consider the
request of our two (2) local high school swim programs, which are ClF competitive programs at
Temecula Valley High School and Chaparral High School. And third, we consider the request of our
two (2) recreational competitive swim programs. Based on rosters submitted to us the Temecula
Swim Club has 230 total participants and three (3) coaches. 214 participants are Temecula
residents and 16 are non-residents. The Inland Gold Aquatics has a total of 32 participants, 2 of
which are non-residents.

RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission approve names to be

Ranch development.
BACKGROUND: Pursuant to City policy, it is the responsibility of the Community

of each park and recreation facility operated by the City of Temecula.
On July 1, 2001, the Vail Ranch community was annexed into the City of Temecula. Throughout
Vail Ranch there are various unnamed park sites. The City of Temecula Community Services
Department maintains a policy of naming and placing signage on all City park and recreation
facilities.
At the direction of our City Council, the Community Services Department ran a "Name Your Parks"
campaign for the Vail Ranch community. Flyers were distributed, advertisements and press
releases were placed in the local newspapers, and the park naming program was offered on the
City's website. After a four-week park naming campaign, several suggestions were made for
naming the Vail Ranch parks sites. Attached you will find those names suggested through the Vail
Ranch park naming campaign. Also attached, you will find our standard list of park name
recommendations for future City of Temecula Park and Recreation Facilities.
After review of the names submitted through the Vail Ranch Park naming campaign, staff would
recommend that the Community Services Commission consider the following:
Park Site A
Vail Ranch Park or
Walter Vail Park
Park Site B
Nighthawk Park or
Pablo Apis Park
Park Site C
Erie Stanley Gardner Park
Palomar Park
The Commission may consider the attached names or any other names desired for the park sites.

Naming Parks and Recreation Facilities
PURPOSE
To establish a uniform policy and procedure that identifies
criteria for the naming of Parks and recreation facilities.
POLICY
The Park and Recreation Commission will be responsible for the
selection of names for parks and recreation facilities. Once a
name is selected, it will be forwarded to the Board of Directors
for ratification. Staff will be responsible for encouraging
citizens and community organizations to suggest possible names that
will then be forwarded to the Commission for consideration.
At a minimum, each park and community building will be designated
a name. Naming of specific areas within a park (garden, swimming
pool, lake, ballfield, etc.) is acceptable but should be kept to a
minimum to avoid confusion. No park shall be given a name which
might be perceived as controversial by the co~munity. All names
selected shall be acceptable and meaningful to a majority of the
neighborhood/community where the park or recreation facility is
located.
Priority in naming sites shall be given to geographical locations,
historic significance or geologic features. No park sh&ll,be named
for a person, except where an individual has made a significant
financial contribution toward the acquisition and/or development of
the Dark or facility, or has been an outstanding long-time
community leader who has supported open space and recreational
activities.
All park and recreation facilities will be designated a formal name
within six months of acquisition or construction. All parks shall
have an entrance sign. Buildings will have an entrance sign and a
plaque inside the facility for name identification.
The name of a park or recreation facility may be changed only after
a hearing is held by the Commission to receive community input and
direction. No name shall be changed unless there is significant
justification and support by the community.
