Deputy Director of Community Services Ruse provided a brief overview of the Library Grant Process, as follows: On December 2, Mayor Ron Roberts, Management Analyst Adams, and Deputy Director of Community Services Ruse traveled to Sacramento where the Library Board met to distribute the first series of funding in the bond act for libraries. · The first cycle included $150 million available to cities that applied by the June 15 deadline. · The Board staff ranked those applications into three categories: outstanding, very good and adequate. The City of Temecula was ranked as very good. At the end of the day-long meeting, the Board agreed to fund all but one of the outstanding applications which totaled a little over $130 million, leaving approximately $19.68 million still on the table. The Board decided to go back and re-evaluate all of the very good applications and come back on December 19 to fund as many of those projects as possible; or roll that money over to the third funding cycle according to the language of the bond act regulations at this time; or they could change the regulations to fund and set the cycle. The Friends of the Temecula Library have started a writing campaign in response to the Library Board's indication that they do acknowledge letters from residents in applicant cities. For a list of the names and addresses of the six Board Members, contact Grace Mellman, President of the Friends of the Temecula Library, the library county branch on County Center Drive, or Temecula City Hall. Time is of the essence as the Board will be making a decision on December 19. In response to Commissioner Meyler's request, a list of the names and addresses of the Library Board members was made available to all those in attendance. Director of Community Services Parker pointed out that there was still $19 million available, and the City of Temecula needs $8.5 million to fund the new library which is desperately needed and well deserved. Responding to Commissioner Hogan's inquiry, Deputy Director of Community Services Ruse apprised the Board that e-mail addresses were included on the list of names and addresses of the Library Board. R: CSC/minutes/120902 ~ Regarding Commissioner Hogan's suggestion that a petition be started, Deputy Director of Community Services Ruse indicated that it was preferable that individual letters be sent in order to make a greater impact with the Board; however, whatever response could be obtained from citizens would be wonderful. Deputy Director of Community Services Ruse also encouraged children to write. In light of the busy holiday season and as a means of encouraging citizens to write, Commissioner Henz suggested that a form letter be written and placed on the City's website so that citizens could e-mail the Board directly. As this is a joint project between the City and the School District, Vice Chairman Edwards encouraged all present to attend the School Board Meeting tomorrow night. CONSENT CALENDAR 1.

Wolf Creek 43-Acre Sports Complex RECOMMENDATION: 2,1 That the Community Services Commission approve in its substantial form the Master Plan for the 43-acre Sports Complex in the Wolf Creek Development. Development Services Administrator McCarthy presented the staff report to the Commission, which was then followed up by a PowerPoint presentation conducted by Mr. Mueting of the RJM Design Group. Mr. Mueting's presentation highlighted the following: That a design charette workshop took place in April 2001 involving over 40 individuals from the community. The charette's purpose was to develop a master plan for the site. · That the issues discussed included: o Likes - Accessibility of the site, its size and shape, and the fact that it is flat topographically. o Dislikes - traffic, access, and the adjacent facility. R: CSC/minutes/120902 (~ o Potential facilities - the top facilities were to have dedicated fields in the stadium facility, a recreation center, shaded play areas and trails. o The development constraints of the site. o Having a balance or variety of use for the site. For the benefit of the Commission, Mr. Mueting reviewed the proposed Master Plan in detail. In response to Commissioner Hogan's inquiry regarding the purpose of "dedicated championship" fields, Mr. Mueting explained that solar orientation is very important to most sports and typically the championship fields are oriented toward the northeast/northwest. He further added that each field would have similar amenities and all would be big-league quality, the best public fields around. Replying to Commissioner Yorke's query about the sun cover over the stands that had been discussed, Director of Community Services Parker replied that due to budget constraints this item had been removed from the plan. However, shade improvements were created in the pavilion area providing a nice view out onto the soccer fields. Regarding discussions of the incorporation of a pool, Director of Community Services Parker indicated to Commissioner Yorke that the City is currently in discussions with the School District regarding placing a 50-meter swimming pool on their site. Commisioner Meyler stated that this would be a perfect joint-use project. For Commissioner Hogan, it was relayed that development of the recreation center would begin in Phase Two. Replying to Commisioner Yorke's query regarding viewing stands for the aquatics, Director of Community Services Director Parker indicated that this item would be discussed during the design process. In response to Chairman Henz's queries, Director of Community Services Parker indicated that all the courts would be lighted; and that football is currently being played at Temecula Middle School thus the need for only one field. Replying to Chairman Henz's inquiry about the lifetime of the artificial turf, Director of Community Services Parker replied that the lifetime of the turf would be between 12 to 14 years. Further, some of the money saved in maintenance would be applied toward funding the facilities. Commissioner Hogan asked if it would make economic sense to use artificial turf on the baseball fields as well. In response, Director of Community Services Parker stated that baseball fields don't require the extensive maintenance that soccer fields do; and, therefore, the economic benefits would not be as great as those realized on the soccer fields. For Chairman Henz, Director of Community Services Parker indicated that the Sports Park would contain 73 developed acres. R: CSC/minutes/120902 7 MOTION: Commissioner Hogan moved to approve staff's recommendation. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Meyler and voice vote reflected unanimous approval with the exception of Commissioner Edwards who was absent. 3.

Director of Community Services Parker presented the staff report to the Commission. Commissioner Yorke expressed her concerns regarding the very heavy traffic in the area and the safety of the area elementary school-age children traversing the streets. Further, Commissioner Yorke requested that a traffic study be done from the corner of Margarita Middle School up to Moraga and the location of the proposed facility to ensure that such a project was feasible in the area. In response to the Commissioner's concerns, Director of Community Services Parker indicated: · That he would address her concerns with the City's traffic engineer. · That when such a project is proposed, it is usually customary to have traffic audits prepared that include such impacts. · That the project has been in the CIP for some time and that a traffic study was mostly likely included in the General Plan. · That he would check to make sure that it had been included in the General Plan. Referring to the adjacent apartments, Commissioner Hogan felt that the location of the facility would greatly benefit the children in the area without their need to cross any major streets. Commisioner Yorke informed the Commission that there is currently a controversy regarding the children using the walkway and the gate in crossing to get to schooL, and that there is a movement toward closing the gate. Commissioner Yorke inquired if anyone had addressed the School District regarding this issue. Director of Community Services Parker indicated that the City had not been approached regarding this issue. Regarding Chairman Henz's inquiry about parking spaces at the park, Director of Community Services Parker indicated: · That the elementary school would be permitted to use 80 of the existing parking spaces. · That this use would not impact the use of the park because the school's needs were earlier in the day vs. the evening when the fields would be in use. R: CSC/minutes/120902 ~ At this point, Jim Morgan, Executive Director, YMCA made a brief presentation to the Commission stating that the project would be a real asset to the community. In response to questions from the Commission, Mr. Morgan indicated: · That regarding programs, typically, the focus is children; therefore, with the community's input, a facility will be built to meet those needs. That regarding the gender orientation of the YMCA, Mr. Morgan indicated that the organization which was founded in 1884 was all male, that the name had been preserved because of the organization's heritage, that women have been involved since WWI and have played an integral part in the organization, and that currently the YMCA's membership is 55% women. · Regarding the proposed size of the facility, when the meets and bounds are analyzed, a final determination of the size of the facility will be made. · That regarding outside activities, there are many opportunities available but until the Agreement is approved, Mr. Morgan believed planning to be premature. That regarding a joint use agreement between the City, the YMCA, and the School District, Director of Community Services Parker indicated that there had been brief discussions; but the only issue before Commission this evening was the Ground Lease Agreement. · That topography is the challenge of the site and will determine the size of the facility. · That this was the original site of the Community Center. · That the YMCA anticipates no problems in meeting the milestones in the agreement. Paul Peele, Chairman of the Board, YMCA, made a brief presentation to the Commission regarding the history of the organization in the area. Mr. Peele stated that the Agreement was an exciting and wonderful opportunity for the organization as well as the community and thanked the Commission for all their support.

Parker, Director of Community Services January 13, 2003 Naming Policy for Parks and Recreation Facilities RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission approve the recommendation of the Commission sub-committee to maintain the naming policy for parks and recreation facilities as currently written. BACKGROUND: On April 23, 1991 the Board of Directors adopted a policy for naming parks and recreation facilities. This policy was developed to establish a uniform policy and procedure that identifies criteria for the naming of public parks and recreation facilities. At the July 23, 2002 Board of Director's meeting, the Board requested that staff work with the Community Services Commission to review the existing naming policy and recommend appropriate changes or modifications. The Community Services Commission appointed Commissioners Tom Edwards and Jim Meyler to serve as a sub- committee and meet with staff to discuss and review the existing park naming policy. On November 18, 2002 the sub-committee and staff met to review our existing policy and how it has been utilized in the past years. The committee also reviewed and discussed the naming policy from other cities including the City of Corona, the City of Moorpark and the City of Rancho Cucamonga. After review of the policy and information, the sub-committee felt that our current naming policy is adequate and appropriate. It enables the City to name sites based on geographical location, historical significance or geological features. It also suggests that parks can be named for persons who have made a significant contribution towards the acquisition or development of parks or facilities and that have been an outstanding long-term community leader who has suppor[ed recreation and open space. In reviewing names of our current park sites it appeared to the sub-committee that the policy has been implemented appropriately and accurately. Sam Hicks Monument Park, Rotary Park, The Thomas H. Langley Amphitheater, Pala Community Park, Vail Ranch Park, Pablo Apis Park, Paloma Del Sol Park and Long Canyon Creek Park are all named based on information received from the community for their geographical location, historical significance, geological feature or community contribution to parks. The sub-committee did suggest that the Community Services Department conduct a community campaign to gather a new list of proposed names for future park sites. They also suggested that future park names that are recommended to the Board of Directors be submitted along with a brief statement to explain how the Commission selected the name.
