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 cencem 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 criteria 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 and staff will bdng the item back to the Community Services Commission for their review and approval.

R:\MINUTES\071299.doc 4 Staff will be bringing forward an item in August regarding the use of Reclaimed Water at City the Rancho California Sports Park. Director Parker asked which Commissioners would be attending the League of California 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 not a cultural/arts minded community. He said it appears that the residents don't seem to be participating in the arts minded activities. Commissioner Hertz said although the City has drafted a Cultural Arts Master Plan, the goals are not be 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 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 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 bdnging 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 R:\MINUTES\071299.doc 5 said he would like to explore the possibility of designing additional lighting at the amphitheater. ADJOURNMENT Chairman Edwards declared the meeting adjourned at 8:51 p.m. It was moved by Commissioner Henz, seconded by Commissioner Miller to adjourn to the regular meeting of August 9, 1999.

R: ~haningk~ageada.rpt~,RCSP- Reclaimed Water Us~ ITEM NO. 3 CITY OF TEMECULA AGENDA REPORT TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Community Services Commission Herman D. Parker, Director of Community Services August 9, 1999 Reclaimed Water Use at Rancho California Sports Park PREPARED BY: Kevin T. Hardngton, Maintenance Superintendent RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission receive and file the report on reclaimed water use at Rancho California Sports Park. 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 Califomia 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. The City has agreed to evaluate the use of reclaimed water at our North/South ballfields, upper soccer field and the surrounding slope areas. We feel the location, the variety of plant and turf types, and the soil profiles will be ideal to determine the effectiveness of this alternative water soume. RCWD has agreed to assist the City 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 Chapanal High School and has not experienced any major problems with its use. Several golf courses in the area also 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 Califomia's R:~harringk~agenda.tpt~,CSP- Reclaimed Water Us~ water supply needs. Based upon information provided and dialog with RCWD the use of reclaimed water has proven to be safe from a public health standpoint, and the State Department of Health Services is continually updating regulations to maintain public safety. The cost of reclaimed water is expected to be less than half the cost of potable water, which 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 p-ovide 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. Mr. Dennis Willlares of Rancho California Water District is here tonight to discuss the use of reclaimed water at City park sites. R:Xharringk~agffdta.rpt~,CSP- Reclaimed Water Use ITEM NO. 4 CITY OF TEMECULA AGENDA REPORT TO: FROM: DATE: Community Services Commission _.~Herman D. Parker, Director of Community Services August 9, 1999 SUBJECT: City of Temecula Wall of Honor ,,~:_.--, PREPARED BY: ~,~'odd Holmes, Development Services Administrator RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission: 1. Approve the procedure for the establishment and continuing operation of the City of Temecula Wall of Honor. 2. Appoint one Commissioner to serve on the permanent Wall of Honor Subcommittee. DISCUSSION: The Wall of Honor is intended to honor and recognize individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to the City of Temecula. The names of the designated individuals will be permanently displayed in a prominent location: The Tony and Mildred Tobin Rotunda in the Temecula Valley Museum. A Subcommittee, which included Council Member Jeff Comerchere, Commissioners Jim Meyler and Henry Miller, was formed to develop a procedure for the establishment and continuing operation of the City of Temecula Wall of Honor. The Subcommittee's recommended procedure was brought before the Commission last month and the Commission directed that the procedure be returned to the Subcommittee for further consideration. The Commission asked the Subcommittee to consider a procedure that would set a minimum threshold for selection. The Commission also requested that the criteria for selection be made more specific. The Subcommittee met and discussed the Commission's requests. As a result of those discussions, the Subcommittee is now recommending a procedure that will set a minimum threshold for selection. However, the procedure states that if no nominees reach the threshold, the nominee with the highest number of points would be selected as the honoree for that year. The Subcommittee discussed the option of not having an honoree in the event that the threshold was not met, but the Subcommittee decided that it would be unfair to the nominees as a group if an honoree was not selected. The Subcommittee also discussed the criteria for selection and decided not to make the requirements more specific. In reviewing possible scenarios it became apparent that there could be many different types of outstanding contributions that could wan'ant an individual's placement on the Wall of Honor. The danger in drawing up a specific set of criteria lies in the potential exclusion of worthy individuals that may deserve to be honored. The procedure attached for your review and approval, calls for the establishment of a permanent Wall of Honor Subcommittee to review nominations and rank the top nominees. This Subcommittee will be made up of the following individuals: The Temecula Good Neighbor and the Wall of Honor honoree(s) from the prior year, one City Council Member, and one member from each of the three City Commissions. During the first two years the honoree(s) will not participate. In the first year there will be no prior year honoree(s) and in the second year there will be ten pdor honorees. The Subcommittee decided that inclusion of the ten honorees in the selection process would be unwieldy. The review and ranking will be done individually by the Subcommittee members and the results will be mailed in to City Hall and staff will tabulate the results; the Subcommittee will not meet. The top ranked nominee(s) will be taken forward for approval to the Community Services Commission and the City Council. The Subcommittee recommended that the procedure be returned to the Commission in July 2000 for review and possible modification. The review would factor in the experience gained in the inaugural selection process. The initial group of honorees will not be selected based on a thrashold (please see the attached procedure). The actual threshold number is not set in the attached procedure, so the Commission will need to designate the threshold as pad of the overall review in July 2000. CII'Y OF 1EMECULA PROCEDURE FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT AND CONTINUING OPERATION OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA WALL OF HONOR I/lift WALL OF HONOR To honor and recognize individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to the City of Temecula over a significant period of time. To commemorate the contribution, the names of these individuals will be placed on a wall of honor in the Tony and Mildred Tobin Rotunda in the Temecula Valley Museum. BASIC CRITERIA FOR SELECTION To be eligible, an individual must have made a major contribution to improve the quality of life for the residents of the City of Temecula over a significant period of time. Members of service clubs, City Councilmembers and Commissioners, City Staff, and residents are all eligible for nomination. METHODOLOGY · Names will be added to the wall on an annual basis. The inaugural group of honorees will be selected and placed on the wall when the wall is dedicated. This group will consist of 10 individuals. One or more honorees will be placed on the wall in each succeeding year. · The City will solicit nominations for the Wall of Honor each September. Announcements will be placed in local newspapers and posted on public buildings. The process will also be publicized by mailings to community groups and announcements by elected and appointed officials of the City. · Anyone can submit a nominee or nominees utilizing a form provided by the City. The form will require some background information and a short statement (not to exceed fifty words) in support of the nomination. · A Wall of Honor Subcommittee will review the nomination forms. This Subcommittee will be made up of the following individuals: The Temecula Good Neighbor and the Wall of Honor honoree(s) from the prior year, one City Councilmember, and one member from each of the three City Commissions. The Subcommittee will not meet; copies of the nominations will be mailed to each member along with a ballot. Each Subcommittee member will rank all the nominees in numerical order from one to the total number of nominations, with one being the lowest ranking. The Subcommittee will mail the completed ballot to the City and staff will tabulate the results. The points assigned to each of the nominees will be totaled and the results compared to a minimum threshold number. All nominees who CITY OF TEMECULA PROCEDURE FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT AND CONTINUING OPERATION OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA WALL OF HONOR 8/9/99 Page Two meet or exceed the threshold number will be recommended for placement on the Wall of Honor and taken forward to the Community Services Commission for approval. The Commission's nominee(s) will be presented to the City Council for final approval. · It is anticipated that the final approval of the nominee(s) and the induction ceremony will take place in December. · The inaugural group will be selected in the manner described above, except that the ten individuals with the highest number of points will be placed on the Wall of Honor. No threshold will be applied to the inaugural group. · A threshold has not been included in this proceedure. Subsequent to the inaugural selection, a threshold will need to be set before the next round of balloting. · During the first two years, the Wall of Honor Subcommittee will not include the prior year's honoree. In the first year there will be no prior year honoree(s) and in the second year there will be ten honorees. The inclusion of the ten honorees in the selection process would be unwieldy. DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS · The Wall of Honor will be located in the Tony and Mildred Tobin Rotunda at the Temecula Valley Museum. The Wall of Honor will occupy one wall panel to the left of the doorway into the exhibit area. · Each name will be placed on a large acrylic panel mounted on the wall of the rotunda. The panel will appear as if the names were sandblasted on a sheet of glass. The panel will include large lettering stating "City of Temecula Wall of Honor" with a brief explanation about the purpose of the wall. This display configuration will be integrated into the design of the other elements in the rotunda. · A short statement describing each honoree and the nature of the her/his contribution will be placed in an archive and/or in an interactive computer station at the museum. WALL OF HONOR SELECTION EXAMPLE In the example below, the six members of the Wall of Honor Committee will select the honoree from a field of five nominees.

Parker, Director of Community Services August 9, 1999 SUBJECT: Roripaugh Ranch Park Conceptual Master Plans PREPARED BY: d,.L~Todd Holmes, Development Services Administrator RECOMMENDATION: That the Community Services Commission receive and file a report on four conceptual park master plans in the Roripaugh Ranch project. DISCUSSION: The Roripaugh Ranch Development is a large specific plan project proposed for the north-west corner of the City, near the proposed intersection of Butterfield Stage Road and Murrieta Hot Springs Road (see attached vicinity map). Roripaugh Ranch will be conditioned to construct four parks for dedication to the City. Two of the parks are designed for active sports and two are smaller parks intended for passive recreational activities. 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 City's Quimby parkland dedication requirements. Based on 2,058 units proposed in Roripaugh Ranch, the project will be required to dedicate a minimum of 26 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. For example, the developer might be required to construct and dedicate the first ten-acre park before the City would issue the 250th building permit. 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 two large parks are 10 and 8.5 acres in size and contain parking, restroom/concession buildings, lighted soccer and softball/baseball fields, play equipment and walkways. The two passive parks are 5.5 and 3 acres in size and contain play equipment, picnic tables, 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. The layout of the 8.5 acre park has been revised to allow the restroom/concession building to be adjacent to the parking lot. This arrangement is ideal and allows a much more efficient use of space. A rough draft of the revised layout is attached. Revised color renderings of all the park plans will be presented at the Commission meeting. PROJECT VICINITY MAP ./'~. / .....
