DISTRICT BUSINESS
1 Naminq of Vail Ranch Park Sites A, B and C
RECOMMENDATION:
2.1
Approve names for the Vail R_nch Park Sites located in the Vail Ranch
development as follows: Park Site A - Vail Ranch Park; Park Site B -
Nighthawk Park and Park Site C - Pablo Apis Park as recommended by the
Community Services Commission.
Development Services Administrator McCarthy presented the staff report (of record),
commenting on the letter from Mrs. Mary Monahan who had requested that the District consider
naming one park site in memory of her son, Stephen Michael Linen, Jr., a Vail Ranch resident,
who was a CHP Officer and killed in the line of duty August of 2001.
Never having heard of Pablo Apis but relayir~g no objection to naming Park Site C in his honor,
Director Naggar noted that naming the park after Pablo Apis would reflect an inconsistency with
the City's park naming policy and suggested that because parks are named in perpetuity, that
the proposed names reflect more inspiration.

In order to determine whether the existing policy is still relevant, Director Comerchero
suggested that the park naming policy be readdressed by the Community Services
Commission.
For the Directors, Community Services Director Parker briefly reviewed the community input
that was received with regard to the naming of the proposed parks.
Director Pratt relayed his support of naming Park Site B in memory of Stephen Michael Linen,
Jr.
Relaying his support of Director Pratt's recommendation, Director Roberts offered the following
motion:
MOTION: Director Roberts moved to name Park Site B in memory of Stephen Michael Linen,
Jr. The motion was seconded by Director Comerchero and voice vote reflected unanimous
approval.
MOTION: Director Naggar moved that the park naming policy be readdressed by the
Community Services Commission. The motion was seconded by Director Pratt and voice vote
reflected unanimous approval.
MOTION: Director Naggar moved that the naming of Park Sites A and C be postponed until the
park naming policy has been readdressed by the Community Services Commission. The
motion was seconded by Director Pratt. (Director Naggar withdrew his motion; see below.)
Speaking in opposition of the proposed motion, Director Comerchero noted that the proposed
names fit the existing criteria of the park naming policy. When the Commission reviews the
policy, Mr. Comerchero suggested that consideration be given to not only naming parks in
memory of individuals.
Noting that the City has possibly outgrown its original policy, Director Roberts concurred with
the Commission readdressing the policy but supported the proposed names for Park Sites A
and C.
In light of his fellow colleagues' comments, Director Naggar chose to withdraw his previously
made motion.
MOTION: Director Naggar moved to approve the recommended names for Park Sites A and C.
The motion was seconded by Director Comerchero and voice vote reflected unanimous
approval.
