Bradstreet, Parks and Recreation Director DATE : April 4, 1980 SUBJECT: Grant Funds for Tennis Court Lighting D The City has been allocated $4,366 under the Roberti-Z'berg Urban Open Space and Recreation Program Act. Last year, the City applied for and received $6,000, which was used to purcha: picnic tables, benches and barbeque stands for various City parks. This is a block grant, so the funds are allocated on a per capita basis to agencies within designated urban areas. To be eligible for these funds,they must be encumbered by a fully-executed agreement by June 30, 1980. There is currently $7,000 budgeted for lighting the two tennis courts south of the proposed pool site. Additionally, the Cit Council, in their Capital Improvement Priority List, has plans to light the nine tennis courts owned by t'he School District. When these courts were built the City provided $5,000 for the electrical stub outs for future lighting. The School District has no need for lighted courts for its programs, so these would be for general citizen use. Since, there is some question regarding the outcome of the tennis courts adjacent to the proposed swim complex, it is recommended that the City light three tennis courts owned by the School District. These lighted courts would be open to th public during non-school hours. The original $7,000 budgeted for lighting two courts is now inadequate and the department has determined that it would be as economical to light three courts as two, because of the la: out of the high school courts, and the requirement for fencing if additional posts were required. Additionally, this would provide one more lighted court for public use. The estimate to light the three court is $16,900. It is prop( that the $7,000 already budgeted be carried over as a continu: appropriation for next fiscal year, that the City use $4,366 : grant funds and that the remaining $5,534 be provided by the Parks and Recreation Trust Fund for adult sports activities. * A. 0 e I This is more clearly outlined below: $ 7 ? 000 Continuing Approprriations 4,366 Grant Funds 5,534 Parks and Recreation Trust Fund $16,900 TOTAL In summary, it is recommended the City light three tennis COUI on school property and that the City apply for a grant in the amount of $4,366. This will also require continuing appropriations of $7,000 DLB:MDL:vI~ -2- 4 ,* -+ 0 @ -YIuIA* - c; MEMORANDUM TO : Frank Aleshire, City Manager FROM : David L, Bradstreet, Parks and Recreation Director 2 i DATE : April 8, 1980 SUBJECT: Roberti-Z' Berg Block Grant The following information regarding the history and background 1 the tennis court lighting project and suggested alternative projects for possible funding under the Roberti-Z'Berg program is submitted for your information and direction. TENNIS COURT LIGHTING BACKGROUND FY 77-78 I.) In October, 1977 the Parks and Recreation Commiss and staff recommended that due to the congested c ditions at the two. existing lighted tennis courts Laguna Riveria Park that grant monies be pursued building and/or lighting two additional courts as feasible. FY 78-79 2) The project was incorporated into the 78-79 Capil $7,000 was appropriated to light two tennis courl at the Monroe Street courts. Improvement Project program as priority no. 33, i 3) The project was deferred to the 79-80 CIP progra pending swimming pool complex construction. 4) In February, 1979 staff was directed to update b for the lighting project,with the followin resu a) two courts adjacent to swimming poo,l - $10,60 b) two courts at Carlsbad High School - $ 9,30 c) three courts' at Carlsbad High School - $13,5C FY 79-80 5) In September, 1979 the Engineering Department requested information on construction projects f fiscal year 79-80. 6) Staff supplied Engineering with the requested ir mation regarding the $7,000 lighting project. 7) In budgeting for the swimming pool, Engineering planned to incorporate the $7,000, which had previously been earmarked for tennis court lighi into- the swirmning pool complex project 9 for par1 lot lighting. +: 0 0 *4 t 8) According to the Finance Director, as of April 8, 1980, the transfer of funds has not been made, an there is still $7,000 iv2ilable,,for the tennis co 1TgFtin.g project. 9) On April 1, 1980. Parks and Recreation staff was directed to update costs, for materials only, to light three courts. The estimated cost is $16,9C 10) On April 4, 1980 an agenda bill was submitted, requesting City Manager and City Council approval to execute the Roberti-Z'Berg Block Grant agreemc to light three tennis courts at Carlsbad High Scl DISCUSSION Staff feels that this lighting project should be given a high priority for the following reasons: 1) The City of Carlsbad has only two lighted tennis courts, bo1 of which receive heavy daily and yearly usage. 2) The National Standards call for one lighted tennis court fo~ every 2000 persons in the population. According to these; standards, the City of Carlsbad should'have fifteen lighted tennis courts. 3) Due to the increasing popularity of tennis in the country, i well as this area in particular, there is a high public dem, for additional lighted tennis court facilities.
