EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This aquatics facility study was undertaken at the direction of Carlsbad City
Council-who, upon approval of the master plan for Alga Norte Community Park
in january of 2003, felt that additional definition with respect to the park's
aquatics component was necessary and timely. It has been prepared primarily to
provide a tool to City Council to understand the community's needs, to consider
what options are available, and to better understand the cost implications of the
various alternatives for the complex .
The six goals of this project identified by staff, were to develop a design for the
aquatics complex that:
1. Addresses the need to develop recreation facilities in response to the
strategic plan
2. Meets the wide range of programming needs in three main categories-
instruction, recreation, and competition
3. Develop facilities that allow for programs that grow with the community
4. Is a fiscally responsible solution
5. Maximizes the opportunity for cost recovery
6. Utilizes technology and explores avenues to minimize the ongoing cost of
maintenance and operations
The approved Alga Norte
Community Park Master Plan
contains an approximately
four-acre "place holder"
design for the future aquatics
complex. It depicts a 50
meter swimming pool and
support building as is
currently contained in the
City's CIP budget. With the
passage of Proposition C last
November, the City Council
now has the opportunity to
consider expanding the scope
'
and timing of the aquatics complex development should it so desire. To that end,
the consulting team, accompanied by members of the Parks and Recreation
Commission, City Council, and City staff, toured three facilities in the Sacramento
area during the first week of February 2003 to better understand the options for
multi-pool complexes. Additionally, a public meeting was held on February 27,
2003 to afford community members an opportunity to have their opinions heard
and needs considered in the design. Through these events and from considerable
research, the consulting team has designed and evaluated numerous options each

of which reflects combinations of components that
address, to varying degrees, the needs of all
community members .
The recommended alternative, Option 7, is a design
comprised of a "two pool" layout, an estimated
10,000 square foot support facility, bleacher seating,
turf and hardscape gathering areas, a concession
facility, and a sufficient parking configuration. Option 7 meets many of the six
goals of the project. The 50 meter swimming pool will provide an opportunity for
competitive swim, water polo, lap swim, ~~
and some instruction. The eight lane ·
' training/warm-up pool will provide
opportunity for swim instruction, some
recreation, and some lap swim. The
large area to the north of the proposed
pools would provide some flexibility for
expansion of the recreation facilities in
the future. The estimated cost of
construction of this alternative is
$6,493,856 and while it does exceed the
current CIP budget, it is considerably less
costly than several of the alternatives
with expanded recreation components .
The estimated cost recovery would be
48% annually. OPTION 7
.. The citizens of the City of Carlsbad pride
themselves on living, working, and
recreating in a truly world-class, dynamic,
and growing community. With a
commitment to providing services for
people throughout the course of their lives
-from the youngest tots to the senior
community members-the proposed
aquatics complex for Alga Norte
Community Park will provide opportunities
for competitive swim, for some limited rec
swim, and for swim instruction. It is an alternative with room to expand in the
future as the need and desire for recreation elements grows. It is the
recommendation of this study that staff and the design team be directed to move
forward to realize Option 7 -to provide an exciting and enjoyable amenity now
and into the future .

PROJECT BACKGROUND
Alga Norte Community Park will be located at the northwestern intersection of
Poinsettia Lane and Alica nte Road. The site is approximately thirty-three acres in
size and is part of a north-south trending va lley that was prev iously used for
agriculture. The site is bounded to the north and west by preserved habitat, to the
south by the extension of Poinsettia Lane, and to th e east by the future Alicante
Road. Generally, the site slopes down from north to south and has recently been
january 2003 established the bas ic
framework fo r the park and
included th e aquati cs complex and
associated parking occupying the
north half of th e site and the sports
cleared and grubbed as part of the ongoing
new construction of Poinsetti a Lane. The
Master Plan approved by City Council in
fi elds occupying the southern half. The proposed architectural and landsca pe
architectural character of the pa rk w ill be in keeping with other City parks of thi s
magnitude and will be compatible w ith the des ign themes established by The
Villages of La Costa for the neighborhoods that w ill ultimately lie adjacent to Alga
Norte Community Park .

Within the M aster Pl an an area of
approximately four acres was
reserved for the future aquati cs
complex. Th e associated access to
the site and parking for the
complex is provided to the east -
with an entry drive from Alica nte
Road. To the north of the
proposed aquatics facility is an
area designed to meet needs for
family picnicking and children's
adventure play, w ith both
structured and unstructured space .
Immediately south of the facility
are several hard courts and a large,
open, passive green space which
functi ons both as a gathering and
picnicking spot but also to
separate the active fields in the
south from the more pass ive areas
to the north .
MASTER PLAN
Th e CI P budget for th e City of
Ca rl sbad ea rmarks $5.9 million for
the development of a 50 meter swimming pool and support build ing as part of
Alga Norte Community Park. It became evident during the pa rk master planning
that there was considerable concern in the community as to wheth er this si ngle
pool would meet the growing community demand for competitive, recreational,
and instructional opportu nities. Addi tionally, there was a desire to explore
whether there was an opportunity to consider rea lizing the facility sooner than
was originally targeted .
Precedent Research and Programming
The City of Carlsbad and the design team embarked on a touring expedition of
comparable aquatics facilities in other cities, in an effort to refine preliminary
programming elements for the future Alga Norte Community Park Aquat ics
Complex. This tour event was conducted in the Sacramento area of Ca lifo rni a, and
incl uded visits to the following sites:
• Roseville Aquatics Complex, in the City of Rosevi lle
• Fol som Aquatic Center, in the City of Folsom
• Pannell Meadowview Community Center, in the City of Sac ramento

Tour participants benefited from a firsthand view and experience at each facility,
observing and noting the overall site des ign and layout, parking, architecture, pool
elements, infrastructure systems, landscape, concess ion opportunities, donor
opportunities, sponsorship opportunities, scale, quality, materi als I finishes I
colors, and components that may become part of a similar design and operation
for the City of Ca rl sbad. Key staff members from each facility conducted th e
guided tours, sharing their personal kn owledge and expe ri ences -which was
ex tremel y benefi cial for all partic ipants. A composite summary of tour participant
comments is provided with the supplementary information in the back of this
report .
ROSEVILLE AQUATICS COMPLEX
Thi s aquatic complex was the first of
the three facilities visited by the tour
participants, and provided a 11base 11
experi ence for the tour. It is sited
adjacent to a city high school, with on-
site parking areas utilized by both
students and facility visitors. Program
!llliiiiii~ elements include a 25 ya rd x 50 meter
competition pool with perm anent
ExTERIOR ENTRY bleachers and overhead shading; a
7,200 square foot recreation pool with zero-depth entry, lap swim lanes, and a
150 feet waterslide; and a children's wet pl ayground with zero-depth entry .
General comments from the tour participants expressed a perception that the
exterior and interi or architectural features are functional yet institutional -some-
what lacking in a quality aesthetic character. l ocker, shower, and restroom
fa cilities seem minimal and bland. Minimal in the use of materials, in th e
amenities provided to the users, in accessibility, and in overall aestheti cs. Also, all
guests must pass directly through the locker and shower facilities to access the
pool areas, which is not rea lly
desired or necessary for family
observers and team supporters .
Tour participants stated
displeasure in the layout of the
pool elements -that th ey are
not unified and pleasi ng .
Operational space is
inadequate for th e infrastructure
(pumps, heaters, chemica l
systems, filtration systems,
maintenance areas, etc). More

general storage space is also
needed for staff and operations
equipment (such as lane
markers, etc). Offices for staff
and lifeguards are not well
des igned, not use r friendly, and
not properl y separated from
public spaces (with noise being
one of the many problems). An
opportunity for visually
connecting this entire aquatic
complex to th e adjacent park I
green space on th e north side is
a positive amenity-however,
this potential is inhibited due to
the blocked views from the large amount of so lid
wall fencing (as compared to the limited use of
transparent metal picket fencing). Also, a general
lack of proper maintenance, ca re, and hou sekeeping
is evident throughout the site-and thus contributes
to an overall lackluster image.
TURF AREA WITHIN THE COMPLEX
WET PLAY
Overall, thi s is a solid aquatic complex th at incorpo rates many program elements
desirable in a civic aquatic facility of thi s sca le. However, many lessons about
"what not to do" are present here that ca n direct design and operation decisions
for a future aquati c facility within the City of Carlsbad .
FOLSOM AQUATIC CENTER
This aquatic center was the second facility experience for the tour participants.
This facility incorporates a 25 yard x 51 meter competition pool w ith a movable
bulkhead, a 4,712 square foot recreation pool w ith a waterslide, a wet-play
structure with a zero-depth entry, and a 2,475 square foot instructional pool with
entry I exit steps aligning one side .
This facility quickly became the
"favorite choice" for most of the tour
participants for several reasons. It has
a sense of quality in the aesthetic
character, and it presents an
impress ion of integrity in the
architecture, in the site amenities
(lockers, bathrooms, etc.), and in th e
pool elements. The quality use of
brick, til e, and detailed architectural

features make this facility stand out from the others
that were toured. Donor participation and
corporate sponso rship have provided financial
support that contributes to cost recovery in
unconventional ways for a civic facility, and in
more ways than just use r fees. The different types
of donor tiles at the aquati c facility have created a
vibrant connection to the regional community,
with names, artwork, and quotes from real people
-------
that live there and use the cente r. Corporate sponso rship logos are prese nt
throughout the site, yet seem subtle and blend in w ith the surrounding elements .
Th ey do not seem to create a "commercial kitsch" fl avor to the site. A lso, private
party rentals (incl uding birthday parties) held throughout the yea r contribute
additional monies to ass ist in cost recovery .
The site design incorporates a well-blended mixture of
hardscape and softscape elements . Large turf areas create a
soothing green space relative to the ex panse of paving, thus
_ softening the aesthetics. Also the turf areas allow tent set-up
for team competitions, birthday parties, congregating,
sunning, and socializ ing. Pa lm trees and other vegetative
plantings contribute additional ambiance and character to the site .
A lthough a relative ly new fac ility (about 2 yea rs old), the Folsom Aquatic Center is
mainta ined in a superb condition, which was quite evident when compared w ith
the slightly older Roseville facility (about 7 yea rs old). D ue to the inherent nature
of many types of corrosive elements present in an aquatic facility (including sun
exposure, chemical exposure, mineral deposition, suntan oil deposition, etc), a
detailed and comprehensive maintenance program to retain and continually
enhance the integri ty of the facility should be a major consideration when
evaluating operational costs for an aquatic complex of this type. A well-
mainta ined, clean, and "nice" environment ca n enh ance the experience for
aq uatic facility users, and foster a desire to return aga in and again. This facto r
seemed present at the Fo lsom Aquatic Center .
PANNELL MEADOWVILLE COMMUNITY POOL
The aquatic component on this site is actually a
small portion w ithin a larger city-owned
community center complex. The aquatic
component incorporates an "everything-in-one-
pool" concept with a combination competition I
recreation pool w ith eight 25 yard swim lanes, a
waterslide, and a wet-playground w ith a zero-

depth entry. Like the Folsom Aquatic Center, this
is also a relatively new facility (about 2 yea rs
old) .
This type of facility is the most economica l to
operate, since everything is included in the one
pool. However, thi s can have nega tive aspects,
since a dirty diaper from a toddler in the wet
playground area ca n shut down the entire
aquatic component. A lso, it is difficult to separate programming elements when
everything is directly connected to each other .
In summary, the best design precedents taken from this site are: the lobby feature
with its artwork and fun colors; the water toys in th e wet playground area; and the
large amount of glass used in the lobby and training rooms .
OPTIONS FOR THE COMPLEX
Option 1: Minimalist Alternative
This option is a basic altern ative and is
comprised of o ne 50 meter by 25 ya rd
swimming pool with a support facility of
an estimated 9,500 square feet. This
option would incl ude a deep water,
competitive pool with a short transition
area. While some provision for desired
programs could be provided such as lap
swim, recreational swim, some swim
instruction, and water polo, this altern ative
does not meet the project goals and
obj ecti ves of providing opportunity for full
recrea ti on, instruction, and competition
opportunities. Bleacher sea ting would be OPTION 1
provided in this option for viewing of competitive events, and four springboards
would be provided for diving at the deeper, southern end. The support building
would have a pass through entry directly to the pool deck, space for storage,
snack bar concession, lifegua rd and administrative offices, first aid, and
classrooms. The mechani ca l eq uipment would be housed in an adjacent building
that would also provide chemical storage for chlorine and would have a delivery
access. This secondary access would allow for direct pool access during a
competitive event. Ample turf sea ting and gath ering space would be provided for
sunbathing, setting up of tents, and for holding special eve nts. The snack bar and
first aid offi ces would be accessible from both within the pool area as well as

from the general park site to allow for service of the concession as well as in the
event of an emergency. The estimated cost of construction for this option is $5.6
million.
~-Option 2: The Full Competitive Swim
Alternative
'
Option two is a full competitive swim
venue with minimal options for recreation
and instru ction. A large, 51 meter by 25
ya rd pool with moveable bu lkhead would
allow for numerous activities to be run
simultaneously. A secondary eight lane
training and warm-up pool with steps on
each side could be a warmer water pool
th an the long course pool and would
facilitate swimming instru ction. A
separate dive tank with a 5m/7.5m/1 Om
\.: platform and springboard diving would
OPTION 2 offer the deeper water options of a
secondary water polo pool as well as functioning for special instruction such as
scuba diving classes. While this option does allow for the goals of a competitive
venue to be met, it falls short of providing the breadth of recreational and
instructional opportunities sought. Th e building and support faci lities would be
simi lar to the f irst option, with additional bleacher seating on both si des of the 51
meter pool, as well as adjacent to the diving tank. Large fenced, turf seating and
gathering areas would function in a similar manner to the first option-allowing
for sunbathing and setting up of tents and specia l events. The estimated cost of
construction for this option is $8.0 million .
Option 3: The Full Recreational Swim
Alternative
The third option is the only option that
does not have the flexibility for long
course swimming. In place of a 50 meter
pool are numerous components that
emphas ize instructional and recreational
opportunities. An eight lane by 25 ya rd
pool w ith steps on each side w ill allow
swim instruction at all levels as well as lap
and recreation swim. Pre-teens, teens,
and adult users w ill have two large
waterslides as well as an activity pool with
a play stru cture to enjoy. Tots will have a
separate, smaller wet play area with shallow

water and a play structure geared for this younger age. This option is the reverse
of the previous in that it offers a full gamut of recreational opportunities, but it
does not meet the goals of providing a competitive venue, nor does it offer
complete instructional opportunities. Surrounding the entire expanse of pool deck
is a large, turf area suitable for sunbathing, gathering, picnicking, parti es and
special events. A large planter area w ithin the pool deck itself w ill help to brea k
up the venue into its components and provide an opportunity for seating and
shade. The estimated 12,000 square foot support building w ill provide the
common facilities seen in each of the previous options with provision for some
additional storage of pool and play equipment. The estimated cost of construction
for this option is $7.6 million .
Option 4: The First Balanced Alternative
The fourth option presented for review
brings back th e long course 51 meter pool
with springboards, bleachers, and a
moveable bulkhead. The
instructi onal/warm-up pool has been
expanded to ten lanes with steps along
each side and a moveable bulkhead for
increased instructi onal use. A similar
configuration for pre-teen and tot wet play
pools with waterslides is included in this
expanded option. This option generally
meets the goal of providing recreational,
instructi onal, and competitive
opportunities. A large planting/seating area OPTION 4
helps to break up the increased size of pool deck and hardscape. A large turf
seating area on the south side of the complex will provide the gathering and tent
area necessary for hosting swim events. With the 51 meter pool and bulkhead it
would be possible to run simultaneous water polo games and lap swim or
instruction. The estimated 12,000 square foot support building w ill provide the
anticipated facilities for administrati on, storage, concession, showers/change
rooms, and life guard/first aid space. The estimated cost of construction fo r this
option is $9.7 million .
Option 5: The Second Balanced Alternative
The fifth option is again one of multiple pools and multiple opportunities for a
myri ad of uses. The 50 meter long course pool w ith springboards and bleacher
sea ting will provide for lap and recreation swim, di ving, instruction, and water
polo. An eight lane training pool w ith side steps will facilitate lessons and
instru ction as well as providing additional lap and warm-up swimming. A large,

OPTION 5
combined waterslide and wet play pool
with structures would round out the
recreation component. This option
generally meets the goal of providing
recreati onal, instructional, and
competitive opportunities. As with th e
other options, th ere is provision for an
estimated 10,000 square foot support
building and areas surrounding th e pool
deck for sunning and gathering. As in
several of the other options, there is
ample space provided for a large
planter/shade seating area within the pool
deck. The estimated cost of constructi on
for this option is $8.1 million .
Option 6: The Third Balanced Alternative
Option six attempts to again balance and expand the competitive venue with
needs for recreation. The standard SO
meter pool with its options for long course
swim, lap swim, recreation swim, instruc-
tion and water polo is central to this
venue. A dive tank is included w ith
Sm/7.Sm/1 0m platform and springboard
diving. This deep water multi-purpose
pool will provide opportunities for scuba
and deeper water instruction. An eight
lane warm-up and instructional pool w ith
steps along both sides w ill address th e
need for ample opportunity for swim les-
sons and provide overflow lap and recre-
ation swim options. A combined water-~~~
slide, water volleyball , and wet play pool oPTION s
will address the direct need for children's recreational opportunities. This option
generally meets the goa l of providing recreational, instructional, and competiti ve
opportunities. Like the previous options, provision for an estimated1 0,000 square
foot support building and seating and pool deck are evident in the design of thi s
option. The estimated cost of constru ction for this option is $10.0 million .

Option 8: The Comprehensive Program Needs Alternative
O ption 8 is a design comprised of a mu lti-
pool layout, an estimated 11 ,000 square
foot support facility, bleacher seati ng, turf ·-
and hardscape gathering areas, a
concession, and a suitab le parking
configuration. This option meets all six
program goals in all three categories .
The largest single element in the proposed
plan is a 65 meter by 25 yard swimming
pool w ith up to two moveable bulkh eads.
This pool will slope through three depths -
fro m th irteen feet at the deep end to seven
feet in the middle, to fou r feet in th e
shallower end w here there are steps criti -
ca l for full instructional opportun ity. There OPTION s
will be both one meter and th ree meter springboards for diving at the south end .
This "stretch 50" pool allows many options and combinat ions of acti vities to take
place simultaneously. W ith the bulkheads separating areas, it is possible to have
ongoing swimming lessons in the shallow end, w hi le there is water polo and lane
swimming occurring. Similarly there is an opportunity fo r simultaneous water

polo matches to be played. This configuration will also allow long course
swimming in completely deep water. The deep water end may be used for
alternative programs such as scuba training and water rescue.
The second pool proposed in Option 8 is a ten lane, 25 yard instructional and lap
pool. This pool will be designed with steps running the length of both ends to
afford the most opportunities for a variety of swim lessons. It will also provide an
opportunity for water aerobics and fitness, and for training. It will function for lap
swim and warm-up for a long course competition, as well as recreation swim. A
third, small, warm water therapy pool of approximately 15 feet by 25 feet, with
access ramp and grab-bar hand-holds, will provide opportunities for aqua therapy
and relaxation for users of all ages and physical abilities to enjoy the higher
temperature, water jets, and seats. Whether an athlete staying warm between
heats, a senior citizen receiving physical therapy, or a special needs individual
learning to swim, the therapy pool will be an all-season opportunity for
recreation .
For the younger members of the community, there will be several opportunities for
pure fun and frolic. Two wet play pools and a water slide will allow both tots and
pre-teen/teen users ample opportunity to enjoy the water in a safe and controlled
environment. The pre-teen age level structure and the water slide will be sited on
an "island" amidst a 15 foot wide "moving river". jets will propel the water around
the river providing flow for inner tubing or for a chance to taking instruction in
real moving current. Organizations such as fire departments are using these river
pools to conduct training in rescue swim. The City of Vista currently utilizes The
Wave in this manner. The waterslide, river pool, and wet play pools address the
need to develop facilities for recreation and play for all ages and abilities while
also providing unique opportunities for instruction (such as moving water rescue
swim). This option is sized and planned to meet the demands of the growing
community-nowhere else in the County is there a facility of this nature. This
option, while going beyond the current CIP budget with it's $11.6 million
estimated cost of construction, provides the best opportunity for cost recovery -
estimated at 60%-and would allow Carlsbad to continue to explore such things
as alternative energies, public/private partnerships, and perhaps most realistically-
sponsorships. All of which lead to a project that is responsibly financed. Finally,
maintenance and operations realities have been considered in both the layout and
in the research that are part of this report.

PUBLIC WORKSHOP
On Thursday, February 27, 2003, a public
workshop was held at the Faraday Center in
Carlsbad to discuss options for the aquatics
complex and to provide the community an
opportunity to examine the six options developed
and to comment and direct City Staff and the
consulting team. Approximately seventy
members of the general public, adults and
children, as well as twelve consulting team and staff members attended the
workshop. The majority of attendees were involved in competitive swimming-
either as an athlete, parent, or coach. Most attendees were residents with a few
individuals visiting from neighboring communities. City staff and the consulting
team gave a thirty minute overview of the project-the location, the context
within Alga Norte Community Park, the existing budget and timeframe, as well as
the six options proposed. Following the presentation, the community was able to
ask questions and then broke up into groups to discuss the options. Each attendee
was assigned to one of twelve tables upon arriving with the intention of creating
groups of individuals who might represent divergent interests and thus providing a
balanced summary of concerns .
After approximately thirty minutes of discussion in which the consultants and staff
provided ongoing answers to questions that emerged, each group was asked to
have a spokesperson address the group and summarize their concerns .
Listed below are the bullet point items brought forward by each table:
Table 1
• Carlsbad should be a top competition venue
city
• Don't go "cheap" initially-planning for growth
is critical
• Recreation and competition are at capacity -
need to plan for more growth in future
• Swim lessons are critical
• Special needs users should be considered in
planning-perhaps indoor or all weather
enclosed facility with warmer water
• A therapy pool should be included
• Option #6 with the warm-up pool indoors is an idea
• Option #4 would be second choice

• Need the pools to be age/event flexible -key
• Option #6 is the preferred
• Concerned about overcrowding, to much traffic in the pools to adequately
meet the needs
• Definite "no" to Option #3 -doesn't meet the needs
• Any fees for use should be reasonable
• World class facility would be good advertising for the city

• Liked Option #6 best
• Recreation and family seem to be primary and that is good
• Competitive options are interesting-but family is more important
• Could one of the competition things be pared down to save money -i.e. no
platform on the dive tank?
Table 5
• Option #6 is preferred -it has the most capacity, most options
• Children should be isolated for safety -fenced off
• Second choice would be Option #5 -bring the cost down
• Time is NOW to do this
Table 6
• The group's consensus was that critical need was a recreation swim place/a
place to play
• Lap swimming and lessons was key
• Good to have water polo and a competitive venue
• Sees competitive venue as a source of revenue generation -for events that have
2-8000 people attend

OPTION 7: THE RECOMMENDED ALTERNATIVE
Following the tours of existing precedent facilities and the public workshop, the
design team returned "to the drawing
board" to evaluate the many comments
and ideas. Simultaneously staff and the
design team began to seriously research
and compile financial analysis data with
respect to precedent facilities as well as
each design alternative. It became
apparent very quickly that it would be
impossible to fully meet the six identified
project goals while remaining within the
current CIP budget. To that end, and
with fiscal responsibility critical in this
era of escalating costs, it was decided
that a compromise would be the most
appropriate approach to recommend.
Option 7 provides both aquatic program
flexibility as well as ample room for future
expansion without drastic escalation of estimated cost of construction .
OPTION 7
The recommended alternative is a "two pool" solution. The larger of the two
proposed pools is SO meters by 2S yards. This pool will provide competitive
swimmers with an opportunity to train in long course, as well as providing for
lane swimming and water polo. The south end of the pool will support four
springboards for diving-two three-meter boards, and two one-meter boards. The
deep water end of the pool may also be used for scuba training and water rescue
instruction .
The eight lane by 2S yard training pool will afford opportunities for a variety of
swim lessons, with steps running down each side. It may also be used for water
aerobics, aqua fitness, and for lap swim. The water temperature could be warmer
than that of the SO meter pool and thus offer recreation swimming options .
Supporting this multi-pool complex is an estimated 10,000 square foot
administrative building. Users of the facility will enter through a gated main
entrance into an exterior, trellis-covered courtyard that accesses the pool deck
directly. Men's and women's shower/toilet rooms will flank this main entry and
two large family style bath/changing facilities will exit directly to the pool deck .
Office space for lifeguards and staff as well as first-aid will be provided. The first-
aid office will have a separate entry directly to the parking lot for ease of access in
case of an emergency. Ample storage space will allow stowage of supplies for the
lifeguards, the pool toys and swim equipment, as well as servicing the snack bar
,. and concession at the north end of the building. There will be provision of

additional equipment storage around the complex. Sited at the end of the
building, the snack concession could conceivably serve to both patrons within the
aquatics complex itself, and also to park goers who wish only to purchase
refreshments during their visit to the picnic and tot areas or skatepark in the
northern half of the overall park. A weight room will provide the serious swimmer
with an onsite opportunity for strength training, while divisible meeting room
space can function for both the aquatics complex and for other park related
meetings. The meeting space would be equipped for classes as well as for
coaching and meeting space for officials on competition days .
The mechanical and pumping equipment will be housed in a separate structure to
the south. Chemical delivery and storage will therefore take place away from the
main building hub. A separate gated entry for this utility and maintenance area
can also serve as an entrance during competitive events .
There will be ample turf grass seating, bleacher seating for viewing competitive
events, and hard surface pool deck with exterior showers. To help extend the
swimming season, opportunities for a variety of enclosure structures are being
explored. Whether it is a canvas tent structure or something more permanent, it is
the intention of the design to enable maximum seasonal potential and thus realize
a more cost effective solution which also provides the greatest opportunity for year
round lessons and use .
With an area of four acres of the master plan reserved for the aquatics complex,
there also exists room for expansion in Option 7 should the City's future needs,
particularly for recreational opportunities, dictate. The estimated cost of
construction of this alternative is $6.4 million-still in excess of the CIP budget,
but substantially less than several of the alternatives with expanded recreation
components. The estimated cost recovery for this recommended option would be
48% annually .

Conclusion
In conclusion, Option 7: The Recommended Alternative for the aquatics complex
at Alga Norte Community Park best balances the need to meet the project goals in
the categories of recreation, instruction, and competition, with the need to be
mindful of cost. The features provided offer the most flexible approach to
programming within the realm of the CIP budget. The two pools will address
some ability of the facility in cost recovery, and there is ample room to expand
should the City choose to consider it, now or in the future. It is the
recommendation of the staff and the design team that the Commission and the
Council commit the resources and proceed to direct staff to begin work to realize
Option 7 as the long awaited Alga Norte Community Park Aquatics Complex .

A Note on Phasing
Given the financial implications in realizing an aquatics facility in excess of the
CIP budget, options for construction phasing must be considered. There are three
factors to consider regarding phasing of the project: cost-benefit, cost-recovery,
and economies of scale. These must be measured, in comparing the initial asset
investment to anticipated public benefit, potential revenue generation, and
variation of construction costs .
Once a final direction is determined by City Council, a strategy for constructing
the facility in a fiscally responsible and timely manner will need to be developed .
Keeping in mind the goal of the facility is to maximize opportunities for all three
categories of competition, instruction, and recreation, while optimizing cost-
recovery, it is necessary to evaluate which components or combination of
components best meets the needs of the most users. The preferred scenario would
be to construct the recommended option at one time-this would be the most
satisfying for the community, as the users' needs would be addressed
simultaneously. This scenario would also optimize cost-recovery, because the
facility would begin to generate revenue immediately after construction. Thirdly,
this scenario would account for economies of scale (avoiding construction cost
escalation from spreading the work over several years, and utilizing contractors
already staged to do all of the work), minimizing the total dollars spent. Though
the three considerations would be satisfied with this approach, the balance would
be the requirement of high initial capital outlay .
With concern for the City being able to commit such resources at one time, how
to best realize the various components, and in what order, becomes an important
issue. A phased approach affects not only the development of the aquatics
complex, but has implications for the construction schedule of the overall park
itself. Basic infrastructure for the ultimate build-out of both the park and the
aquatics component will be required as part of any initial phase. This will require
a certain amount of up front design so as to provide sufficient infrastructure and
not require any replacement or redesign later. It can be anticipated that this
infrastructure would include electrical, mechanical, and hydraulic support for all
eventual pools. The building itself should most likely be considered as part of any
initial phase. The issue to be addressed is which pool would then be constructed
in the initial phase. Financial considerations and accommodating needs of the
community will need to be addressed and phasing decisions made appropriately .

A Note on Parking
Substantial consideration for parking for the entire site has been part of the design
process for Alga Norte Community Park. The Master Plan design currently
provides a total of 503 parking spaces with no reduction taken for compact stalls .
Of the 503 spaces, 319 were calculated as parking for the aquatics component.
This was based upon a preliminary option for the pool complex per the existing
CIP budget but with an understanding that the pool complex might evolve in
magnitude .
For the purposes of the options presented in this report, the parking evaluation
that follows takes into consideration the most extensive option, Option 8. The
ability to meet the parking needs of this option will ensure any of the chosen
options will be adequately provided for in the park plan .
In the absence of any national, state, or regional standard for parking for aquatics
facilities, Aquatic Design Group, working with their consultants, has evolved a
standard formula for municipal recreational swim facilities. This standard provides
a breakdown based upon the bather capacity allowed by the California public
health code. The code allows one bather for each twenty square feet of water
surface area. The ADG formula then takes the total number of bathers allowed at
one time and divides this by 3.5 people per vehicle. This gives a very
conservative standard for parking. While this formula works very appropriately for
recreational components, it is unrealistic to apply to large competitive swimming
pools. The water surface area of a 65 meter by 25 yard pool is 16,050 square
feet. This would permit 802 swimmers to enter the water at one time .
With it being obvious that this is an unrealistic number in a competition and lane
swimming pool, City staff has reviewed each of the components individually and
provided an estimate based upon programming experience as to the number of
bathers taking part in a fully operational summer day with maximum attendance .
These numbers as well as ADG's formula have been applied to the components
proposed in the recommended Option for the pool complex. Table 1 indicates:
• Component-The pool/recreational element
• Approx SQ Foot -The approximate square footage of the component
• Bathers/Code -The maximum number of bathers permitted by health code
• Max Program-The estimated maximum number of program participants by
Staff
• Car Spaces -The estimated required parking based upon dividing the max
program by 3.5

As the current master plan for the park has allocated 319 spaces for the aquatics
venue, it may be necessary to increase the amount of parking by at least one
additional space to ensure adequate parking should the rest of the park also be
operating at capacity for the other park venues on the same day as the peak
aquatics usage should occur.

A Note on Alternative Energy Sources
As is the goal of every design that Wimmer Yamada and Caughey works on,
consideration for creating the most energy efficient and sustainable systems
possible is a cornerstone of our practice. For a facility such as an aquatics
complex, we also rely heavily on the expertise of our engineers and consultants to
help us continually remind ourselves to be cognizant of this important facet of
design. Consideration for work that has been built in years past as well as pooling
our collective ideas about where we may be headed in the future are at the
forefront of all design projects, and while such things as state subsidized energy
programs may not be in place today that are applicable to a pools complex, other
methods and opportunities may become available in the future. It is for the long
term that we plan and design and explore technology .
With considerable experience in designing and building aquatics facilities
worldwide, Aquatic Design Group has developed an understanding for the myriad
of concerns with respect to creating the most energy efficient and sustainable
systems. The following are some descriptions and notes regarding the approach to
be used in the design of the aquatic facilities at Alga Norte Community Park .
Further research and consideration wi II be conducted once a final direction is
chosen by City Council and the team moves into actual schematic design, but
within the context of this level of study, this should provide some preliminary
ideas as to the options .
Hi~h [fficiencv Pumps
Some engineers select pool circulation pumps utilizing cost and availability as
primary determining factors. For example, a cheaper, readily available self-
priming pump typically operates at 55-60% motor efficiency. This is due to the
fact that the pump motor spins at a relatively high 3,450 RPM. The goal for this
project is to select pumps with a minimum 75% motor efficiency. Pumps with
these types of motor efficiencies cost a bit more initially, and require installation
at an elevation below static water level of the pool being served. However, if a
lower RPM pump motor (1 ,750 or 1,150 RPM) is selected, one can achieve up to
90% motor efficiency. In one recent Aquatic Design Group (ADG) project, the
client's maintenance staff specifically requested self-priming pumps. ADG was
able to demonstrate that by specifying pumps with lower RPM motors, the client
could realize a savings of approximately $22,000 per year in electricity costs. In
nearly every case, the careful selection of pumps can provide significant
operational cost savings. One additional benefit to the lower RPM pumps is
longevity of the motors -which is at least twice that of the 3,450 RPM pumps .
Fillralion i\ulomation
Every time a filtration system backwashes, money is lost not only in the water that
goes down the drain, but the cost to heat and chemically treat that same lost
water. Many filtration systems incorporate manual backwash, in which the

operator frequently backwashes the filtration system on a regular maintenance
schedule, whether the system needs backwashing or not. ADG's engineers
typically specify filtration systems with microprocessor control, which can
backwash on pressure differential, meaning only when the system measures an
influent (water inside of the filtration system) pressure higher than a pre-set limit.
For example, the systems can be programmed to backwash only when the influent
pressure is 10 psi greater than the effluent (water coming out of the filtration
system) pressure. Rather than backwashing once a week (whether the system
needs it or not) the automation allows the system to backwash only when
necessary, thereby saving water, heating, and chemical treatment costs .
Pool Hc.Itcr Effie imcy
Pool heaters, while similar to traditional boilers, have historically been less than
impressive when it comes to energy efficiency. However, since the pool water is
heated directly within the heat exchangers, they can be much more efficient than
traditional plate and frame, or tube and shell heat exchangers. For most projects,
pool heaters should be specified that are up to 89% thermal efficient. Combining
these thermal efficient pool heaters with thermal pool blankets (to cover the pool)
provides a three-to-five year payback for the upgraded pool heaters, and a one-to-
two year payback for the pool blankets, assuming staff or user groups are dutiful in
replacing the pool blankets every evening .
Solar Pool lleatin~-In Getwral v;. Cari;I>.Id'; Ex1wricncc
Over the past ten years, there has been a great deal of interest expressed in solar
heating by public sector clients. This is particularly true when faced with
operating such facilities as are proposed in the recommended option for Alga
Norte. The cost to heat and maintain a 50 meter swimming pool is considerable
and is one of the key reasons for exploring this alternative energy source. With
the advent of "rolling blackouts" in California and proposed price increases from
local utilities, this interest has greatly increased. Detailed, independent analyses
of potential payback for swimming pool solar options have been difficult (if not
impossible) to obtain. The swimming pool industry has been forced to rely on
vendor projections of payback, which is often subjective and inherently flawed .
Any vendor-provided payback figures should be suspect since they (the vendors)
have an interest in selling their equipment.
In the absence of true, independent experts in this area, ADG has invested
significant staff time in researching software programs, attempting to locate solar
engineering specialists, and scouring the internet for resources that could be
considered independent and unbiased. Unfortunately, efforts have produced
precious little information. The University of Central Florida has a large body of
research on swimming pool solar heating, but this information is specific to
Central and South Florida (particularly as it relates to climactic conditions and
corresponding sizing of systems). The University of California at Los Angeles has

recently produced a study on solar heating, but this study is specific to domestic
hot water applications. The only engineering software resource yet located is an
MS-DOS program developed in the 1970's by the then California Energy
Commission, which is extremely antiquated .
As indicated above, previous analyses on the efficacy of swimming pool solar
heating (when requested by a client) have come directly from vendors. The
information received has historically indicated a ten-year payback for "typical"
commercial swimming pool applications. The reasons for this relatively long
payback period include the following:
• Generally speaking, copper and glazed solar panels are the most efficient of
the systems studied. However, these systems are less than ideal for pub I ic
sector aquatics facilities due to the high potential for vandalism (kids love to
toss stones at, and break, the glazed panels). In addition, the high potential for
out-of-balance water chemistry within swimming pool water can wreak havoc
with the copper piping. For example, if the pH feed system were to
malfunction and drive the pH down below 7.0, copper could precipitate out of
the solar heating system and into the pool water, discoloring the pool plaster to
the point where it might have to be completely replaced .
• For the reasons outlined above, ADG typically recommends the use of non-
metallic solar panels (typically ABS plastic), although these systems are
considerably less efficient than the copper and glazed variety. In an area like
the Alga Norte Park site, ADG would conceptually recommend approximately
80% of the pool water surface area in non-metallic solar panels. Depending
on the design option selected, this would require approximately 10,000 to
24,000 square feet of solar panel for this project. Since the ABS plastic is
subject to U.V. degradation, experience has shown that by the time the system
is paid for, it is time to replace it. In times past, this has meant that clients
have been trading dollars with the solar vendors in the name of political
correctness .
• Another reason for the lengthy payback time is the fact that local county health
departments (if they approve the use of solar at all) will require a completely
independent system. Unlike residential pool solar applications, the City
cannot utilize the pool circulation pump to drive the pool water up to the solar
panels, nor can it be tied in to the recirculation piping which per code requires
a separate solar booster pump and piping system must be installed. This not
only decreases energy efficiency (due to the extra pump), it adds considerable
additional capital costs not reflected in the price from the solar vendor .
Despite some of the above indicated general concerns for solar viability, the City
of Carlsbad has over twenty-one years of experience with solar heating at its'
existing swim complex, and finds the system to be not only viable, but Aquatics
staff estimates an annual cost savings of $40-50,000 per year. The existing system

was installed in October of 1981 and consists of 136 panels (3.5'x9.75') which
total 4,641 square feet, representing approximately 70% of the pool surface area.
The system also includes a system of sensors tied to the pump controller, and two
three-horsepower pumps. The system in this application works as a pre-heater for
the pool's heat exchanger/boiler. The only major maintenance performed on the
system was the replacement of the collector panels in October of 2000 at a cost
of $74,000. With the annual cost savings estimated, this establishes a payback
period at well less than two years. During most summers, the boiler is not used at
all and during the spring and fall is frequently off during the day. Because the
system was installed below pool level, it is susceptible to freezing damage (on a
clear night panels can freeze at air temperatures above forty-five degrees). Of
greater concern to staff is how best to accommodate the panels in the
architectural design, and which pools it ultimately makes the most sense to tie
into the system .
Given anticipated utility price increases for natural gas, swimming pool solar
heating may be inching its' way towards long term viability-again, particularly
for the heating of the deep water, 50 meter pool. Careful consideration for the
individual applicaton, based on the final design direction, will ultimately be the
determining factor for consideration of inclusion of a solar system at Alga Norte .
The installation of a natural gas heater for each pool will still be required, but a
solar heating system could be used to augment this arrangement.
C< J~l'llC'r.J t ion
The feasibility of applying co-generation to swimming pool heating depends upon
a number of factors. The basic premise would be that the electrical and thermal
products required for the pool operation could be produced by on-site generating
equipment at less cost than the required electricity and natural gas could be
procured from the utility company. The relevant issues in the analysis include the
following:
1. Capital cost of the co-generation equipment.
2. 24-hour load profiles for pool electrical and thermal requirements. The
issues are the abi I ity to use the co-generation system electrical and thermal
output as it is produced .
3. Electrical rate structures, especially such factors as standby charges, demand
charges and rates .
4. Natural gas rate structures, especially volume discounts based on higher
usage, seasonal price fluctuations, and co-generation pricing discounts .
5. Electrical interconnection cost burdens, especially relaying, service entrance
cost, etc.
6. Availability of utility incentive programs to partially offset the capital costs .
The most favorable scenarios for co-generation would be to find that the electrical
and thermal needs of the pool are fairly constant on both a 24-hour basis and on

an annual basis. Generation equipment could be sized to serve the pool needs
and recovered heat could be used for pool heating. It would be worthwhile to
explore different electrical interconnection scenarios including parallel operation
and independent/transfer switch utility backup options. Discounted gas
percentages and utility incentive percentages could further enhance the
economics. The ultimate feasibility could be determined by a computer
simulation analysis, which covered all of the above items .
Photovoltaic Cells
Photovoltaics (PV's) are composite materials that convert sunlight directly into
electric power. In recent years, the efficiency of the cells has increased to where
PV panels can be placed on new or existing facilities. The installed cost of PV
panels has decreased dramatically in the last few years, and the panels are smaller
in size. As a result, Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV's), now in production,
can be incorporated into many building elements such as roofs, the building
cladding, or window systems .
PV's generate direct current (DC) electricity, which generally must be converted to
alternating current (AC) before it can be used in building systems. The conversion
process requires electronic devices between the PV module and electrically
powered appliances. While PV panels have become very efficient, typically
producing 9 to 10 watts per square foot of panel area, they still would have a
utility connection for high-peak days or if the PV's output produces less than the
total facility load. Though current utility agreements do not allow the sale-back of
excess power to the utility grid, future energy demands may make this a viable
option, further increasing the pay back of the system .
However, even with a utility connection, the offset of the PV's can decrease utility
demand significantly, thus reducing utility bills. Currently, there are several
incentive programs that are available to facilities interested in PV's for power
production that can offer incentives up to 50% of the installation costs .
Key items to keep in mind when deciding on a system would be:
1. Initial up-front installation costs .
2. Amount of roof area available. The amount of area will set the amount of
PV panel surface area to collect energy .
3. Orientation of the PV panels. Though newer technology makes orientation
less critical, a south-facing surface is most efficient.
4. Type of collector material. Though the method of collection is the same for
most all PV arrays, the quality of the film material used will determine the
life of the system .
5. Available incentives to help offset installation costs .

A Note on Public/Private Partnerships and Sponsorship
With the escalating cost of funding municipal facilities, there is a movement afoot
for government agencies nationwide to consider options for alternative revenue
sources. Cost recovery across the gamut of programs is currently being
considered. Two methods of external funding are: 1) public/private partnerships,
and 2) sponsorships. Public/private partnerships are agreements entered into
between the City and a private individual or company. They are generally
established with joint ownership and share decision making rights concerning the
facility or program. Both parties invest in the capital and operating costs .
Currently there are no known outright partnerships for the pool complex .
Considerably more common are sponsorships. In these circumstances an
individual or company may donate money or materiel to an agency in exchange
for naming rights, marketing consideration, etcetera. Folsom Aquatics Complex is
an example of a facility that has pursued sponsorship in an active manner-from
donations of pizza to the on-site concession, to placards identifying health care
sponsors of the lifeguard/first aid supplies, to private donor walls, to signage
throughout the complex. Such sponsorships can be a one-time benefactor
donation, or can be ongoing, annual naming rights to a particular venue
component. It is recommended that the City actively pursue sponsors to help
offset the cost of the pool facility at Alga Norte .

Roseville -Some specific comments from the tour participants (summarized):
• The architecture I buildings generally had a ni ce appearance, yet were "very
blacki sh."
• The parking lot was shared with th e high school; hence, it was completely filled
with student parking .
• Poor wayfinding I signage system.
• The administrati ve offices were very poor .
• The lobby area was uninviting and cold, and the materials I finishes/ colors
looked worn .
• The lobby area was too small, out of scale, an d not functional.
• A lack of sh ade areas for seniors and families.
• Not enough restroom facilities .
• Locker I shower areas: not accessible friendly, no privacy curtains, and no
place to sit and change clothes .
• Negative impression of th e ca re and maintenance of th e resources .
• The complete fac i I ity had a dated design, from an aesthetic perspective
--
• The materi als, finishes, and colors of the building
and interior locker rooms I showers were not
msp1nng .
• The combination staff room and first aid room is
not optimum .
• Good use of solar hea ting for the competition
pool .
• Fun play toys are present at th e wet play structure
FACILITY ENTRY feature, but OUtdated .
• Did not like going through the locker room to access the pools (as a non-
swimmer or as an observe r).
• Didn't see any permanent lifeguard stations around the pool areas .
• Too institutional.
• Large, nice complex--but not optimized in te rms of warmth of design .
• Like the va ri ety of pools in the complex .
• Clean looking first impress ion, although too small of an entrance from a
distance .
• The reception area i n the lobby is too small.
• The fitness I weight room was a mess, cold and unusable for meetings .
• The changing areas are too small.
• The arrangement of the pools is unsatisfactory.
• Need more continuity in the overall layout of the pool experiences .
• Th e concession area is nice, but too small.
• Liked the rental opportunities for birthday parties .

• Very entrepreneurial when it came to fundraising

• First impression? Not impressed.
• Th e lobby is institutional.
• The image for the City of Roseville is very poor .
• Do not like the joint-use with the adjacent high school.
• Need a better signage program integrated into th e design .
• Th e materials are dated on the architecture I bui I dings .

• The floor is cold in the restrooms .
• Overa ll impression of the pools? Unattracti ve and no "arrival" experience.
• The open views out to th e adjacent park are nice .
• No good tree areas .
• Wind could be a problem .
• The decking I paving are just

• Need to better separate the pools

• Need better equipment storage .
• The materi als I finishes I colors of

• Metal corrosion is prevalent.
• Need better art.

• Concrete floor is R I R, not ti le??
• Be aware of corrosion factor.
• Be aware of chemica ls on metal -bright colors .
• The metal roof is fading .
• Steel under stucco & concrete is corroding .
• The "Deck Level Gutter" is noted .
• Not much of an "arri va l experience" coming off of the main vehicular entry.
• Do not like the chain-link fabric fencing within the facility, surrounding th e
base of the water slide. It seems co ld and institutional, since chain-link fencing
is not located anywhere else on the site. This fencing should be a black metal
picket type fencing to match the rest of the site .
• The maintenance building seems dark and cramped. It should have a higher
ceiling, with more natural light in lets .

• A parapet styled roof on the maintenance building would better hide the large
visible heater stacks I vents.
• Fai rly impress ive approach to the facility (positive impression)-however, upon
entry, the facility seemed too small (negative impression).
• The lobby area is way too smal l.
• The reception area is marginal at best.
• Need a larger space for the administrative offices.
• The meeting rooms I community rooms are inadequate, and there should be
more .
• Changing areas were adequate .
• No family changing rooms .
• The overall cleanliness was not very good .
• Exce llent viewer seating, with overhea d
shading element.
• Probably could incorporate additional
amenities .
• They have one 1M and one 3M diving
boards; could incorporate one additional of
each at minimal cost.
• Need more landscaping .
• Has cover for bleacher seat ing, but need more trees .
• Pool layout was adequate, but could be improved .
• Very windy during our site visit.
• Pool depths meet minimum standards .
• So lar blankets on pool.
• Adequate good visibility for lifeguards .
BLEACHERS BY COMPETITION POOL
• The backstage office for lifeguards and operations staff is too sma ll and not
clean, without clear views of the pools from w ithin the facility.
• Adequate access and safety for delive ries and vendors .
• Though this facility had many good features, overall I felt there were more
negatives than positives. They need to increases th e size of the classroom to
1 ,000-1 ,200 SF (two classrooms divided
into 600 SF would be recommended), and
storage space needs to be increased by
about 500-1 ,000 SF .
• The concession stand needs to be
increased to about 300 SF .
• The grass area is great, but some shade
trees would be a nice addition .
• I think the seat ing area is overkill, don1t
need as much. Could take th e savings and
improve the play pool area (i.e. more
water spouts, buckets, etc).

• I did not care for the entry area. Could be opened up to view the pool areas for

• The administrative area was basically non-existent. It could be designed to
overlook the entire pool areas.
• The locker rooms were more than adequate .
• The 50M competitive pool is excellent, but could add additional diving boards
(one additional of each type) .
• The 25 YO pool could increase the lanes from current 4 up to 8, with the 2 out
side lanes having steps the entire length of the pool for lessons (i.e. both ends
of the pool start at 3.5 feet depth and go up to 4 feet depth, with a 4.5 feet
depth in the center section of the pool) .
• Over all had some good ideas but could make some changes for overall
improvement.

Folsom -Some specific comments from the tour participants (summarized):
• High-class design, and facility. Almost ostentatious. Brick fac;ade rea lly great.
• Adjacent landsca pe areas pleasing and functional (used for parties etc.).
• Use of corporate sponsors effective, but will need policy decision.
• Solar component within the shade structure is a plus .
• It is eviden t that the facility has a full-time custodian. One could tell that the
fac ility was very nice I clean .
• One could tell that the Pool Manager and th e Director take a lot of pride and
ownership in the facility .
• Too much brick .
• Did not notice the signage I wayfinding
system .
• The facility takes adva ntage of public I
private opportunities (espec ially liked the
sponsorship ti les w hich brings the
community ties into the complex to provide
a sense of ownership) .
• Great access for deliveri es I vendors.
• N eed more equipment storage .
• D efinitely a fun place to be .
• Grea t sound system .
• N eed a larger 6-8 lane rec reation pool.
SHADE STRUCTURE
• Agree with tour guide that middle pool shou ld be enlarged, and competitive
pool decreased .
• Don't like water slides. Think this vernacular would be great for Ca rl sbad on a
downscaled version .
• Underwater music? Give me a break!
• Security system good, only better with digital recording .
• Need more benches and lockers in the locker
I shower areas .
• Only one family locker I shower area .
• The movable bulkhead in the competition
pool took too much space and casted too
much.
• Needed more landscape I planting areas .
• Li ked the skylights in the pump room .
• Liked the independent pump system
coNcEsSION STAND operati on capabi I ity for each pool.
• Positive impression of the brick and tiles.
• Th e carpet in the support spaces is not good -wet.

• The stairs in the recreational pool are a great fea ture for swim lessons.
• The magnetic menu boa rd at the concess ion
stand is a good feature that can be easily
changed and modi fied.
• The individual showers (with their own
changing area and privacy curtain) are a great
feature. A nice personal touch .
MOVABLE BULKHEAD ON COMPETITION POOL
• Liked the use of tile and bri ck within the
shower I locker room facilities. It created a
sense of richness in w hat is usually an
institutional looking element.
• Liked th e fact that the shower I locker room facilities are hea ted, w hich is very
important for an outdoor aquati c facility. It ca n help moti vate people to go the
aquati c center to go swimming even when it's cold outside, since they know
th at they can at least warm up and feel comfortable when they are in the

• Good paving-scored, textured, colored.
• Signage was not clear - integrate into the

• Very nice first impression. Don't need so sHoWER/LocKER RooM

• Lo bby area: Not a lobby, but a gated eternal entry.
• Administrative offices: Good location; add w indows for view; maybe add
second story; materi als I finishes I colors not fa ncy but good .
• Didn't see any meeting rooms, community rooms, fitness I weight rooms .
• Locker & shower rooms: The use of bri ck inside was not really necessary; good

• A contract with Coke provides $60,000 per year (x 5 years) for them to
supply their product exclusively within the facility (including concessions
and soft drink machines).
• A contract with McDonalds provides $4,000 per year to have their logo on
th e top of the waterslide element.
• The snack ba r grosses about $9 4,000 per yea r in sa les, and nets about
$45,000-$50,000 annual profit from those sales.
• Kaise r Hea lth Care pays a sponsorship for the First Aid office.
• A resident fa mi ly pass costs $199 per year, a nonresident pass costs $249
per yea r.
• This facility hosts 122 rental parties per year, currently at $199 each (up to
15 people in each group).
• Cost recovery for the facility= 63% (could vastly
increase this amount w ith more instructi onal pool
lanes).
• Though th e recreation pool wlsl ide is ve ry
adequate, the instructional pool should be
increased to a minimum of 6-8 lanes, using the 2
outside lanes for lessons.
ENTRY TO FACILITY
• At either end of the instructional pool, the depth @ 3.5 ft graduating to 4.5 ft to
the middle (providing 2 outside lanes) should accommodate the number of
children needing lessons. A smaller pool wl 6 lanes is los ing too much money
on lost lessons.
• The outdoor showers incorporate a triple-faucet stainless steel module mounted
against a wall (x 5 locations= 15 showers, which is great).
• The lifeguard I administration offices suggest to overlook pool area wl good
visibility should have a good P.A. system and C.O. changer for both above and
below water.
• Seating area is adequate.
• Grass area is planned for shade trees .
• Pool parties are available.
• The snack bar would be better with an
increase in size to 16 x 16 FT or 16 x
17 FT. Also, incorporate a bui lt-in
refrigerator I freezer w ith a small riser
for a mini stage above the surge tank.
• The movable bulkhead is nice, but it is
not needed at this time. Approximately INSTRUCTIONAL POOL
$45,000 could be used for a sco reboard I timing system. I would rather see
underwater viewing for filming and coaching (for strokes I ki cks) for about the
sa me price.
• This was by far th e best of the 3 fac iliti es.

Questionnaire Summary
At the February public workshop, in addition to being asked to participate in a
working session to discuss options and summarize concerns and preferences,
participants were asked to take the time to review the design options and complete a
basic questionnaire. Of the over seventy attendees, sixty-three completed at least a
portion of the questionnaire. In general terms, the majority of attendees felt the
critical function of the facility was to provide for the long-promised competitive 50
meter pool venue. As the majority of options met this need, a great deal of support
for the "other" faci I ities is noted. The provision for plenty of space for the
underserved swim lessons was considered a critical factor, and opportunities for
recreational/lap swimming was also important. Finally, the majority of respondents
indicated that a timely realization of this facility was crucial. The following summary
represents the full results of the questionnaire:
In response to the question of which was the respondents' preferred design
alternative:
3 8 respondents preferred Option 6
12 respondents preferred Option 2
7 respondents preferred Option 4
5 respondents preferred Option 5
1 respondent preferred Option 1
0 respondents preferred Option 3
In response to the question of which was the respondents' second choice of design
alternative:
15 respondents preferred Option 5
14 respondents preferred Option 4
13 respondents preferred Option 6
12 respondents preferred Option 2
2 respondent preferred Option 2
0 respondents preferred Option 1
In response to the question of what revenue sources would be appropriate to
consider, the following summarizes the number of affirmative responses. Only
slightly more than half the overall respondents addressed this question-and many of
those who did simply circled all the sources together-without distinguishing amongst
them .

QUESTIONNAIRE
THE PLANNING OF AN AQUATICS COMPLEX
Welcome to the Alga Norte Community Park Aquatics Complex Master Planning Workshop. Your
involvement in this workshop will contribute to the design of the City's long-awaited second aquatics
complex. The City's consultant team is seeking your input to help determine the final composition of
facilities to be provided within the aquatics complex. There are many issues and options to consider in
designing the complex. Please take your time in reviewing the options -talk to staff and other
community members, and fill out the following questionnaire with your thoughts. Your comments are your
chance to guide the City and their consultants in developing an aquatics complex designed to meet your
needs!
We thank you again for taking the lime to help us!
DESIGN OPTIONS
We have developed six conceptual designs to illustrate a range of available options:
1) CIP Budget Option -This option provides the facilities currently approved in the Capital
Improvement budget. This includes a 50-meter competitive pool and a 9,500 square foot (sf)
support building .
2) Competitive Pool Option-This option provides a 51-meter competitive pool with moveable
bulkhead, a dive tank suitable for waterpolo play, an 8-lane warm-up/instructional pool, and a
9,500 sf support building .
3) Recreation Pool Option -This option provides an 8-lane warm-up/instructional pool with
side steps, a recreational activity pool with waterslide, a tot wet play pool, and a 12,000 sf
support building .
4) Combination Option -This option provides a 51-meter competitive pool with moveable
bulkhead, a 10-lane warm-up/instructional pool with moveable bulkhead, a recreational
activity pool with waterslide, a lot wet play pool, and a 12,000 sf support building .
5) Combination Option-This option provides a 50-meter competitive pool, an 8-lane warm-
up/instructional pool, a recreational pool with waterslide and tot wet play area, and a 10,000 sf
support building.
6) Combination Option -This option provides a 50-meter competitive pool, an 8-lane
instructional pool, an activity pool with waterslide and tot wet play area, a dive tank suitable
for waterpolo play, and a 10,000 sf support building .

COST RECOVERY
A cost recovery program will allow for operational losses to be minimized. This is an important
consideration for both the short and long term viability of this facility. Below are some examples of
methods used to maximize the ability of a facility to realize some cost recovery benefit
Designing components of the facility for swim lessons would tap into a robust revenue
source while meeting the needs of a large, previously un-served, group of residents ( 1608
waitlisled swim lesson students over Summer 2002).
Designing the facility to meet the recreational needs (i.e. family programming) of the
community would realize entrance fee revenues while cultivating future participation in aquatic
programs.
Concession sales (i.e. snack bar) not only bring in additional revenue from
recreation/competition patrons, but also allow the facility to provide complete entertainment
packages such as birthday parties.
Sponsorship allows for companies or individuals to give financial support by paying for their
name and/or logo to be displayed within the facility.
The following is a list of potential cost recovery options.
Circle those that you feel would be appropriate for this new aquatics facility in Carlsbad:
Standard Revenue Sources
Recreation Entrance Fees
Memberships Passes
