ITEM EXPLANATION: At the December 6, 1988 meeting, City Council members discussed Proposition M results. Although Proposition M failed to gain the 2/3 vote necessary for passage, the consensus of the City Council was that the 62% yes vote was a mandate of the voters to provide the facilities that would have been built had Proposition M passed. The Council decided to form an ad hoc committee representing a broad cross-section of the community, to provide additional public input on financing facilities that would have been built under Proposition M. Staff was directed to return with documents to establish a citizen's committee whose purpose is essentially two fold. First, the committee will be charged with the task of confirming specific recreational facilities as identified in Proposition M, i.e., golf course, tennis facilities and other recreational amenities. Secondly, the committee will assess and recommend alternative funding mechanisms available to finance this recreational enhancement program. Staff has additionally developed a work plan which will allow for approximately six (6) weeks of committee evaluation and return to Council with a final report and recommendation by March 7, 1989. If Council should decide to consider this issue on the June ballot, the necessary documents must be submitted to the County Recorders office no later than March 23, 1989. In the selection process of committee members, staff recommends that each Council member appoint two (2) representatives. Additionally, it is recommended that the Mayor assign one (1) member from the Parks and Recreation Commission and one (1) at large member to serve as an alternate. The attached is a work plan for the committee to accomplish its function. Should Council have further direction for this committee, the resolution and work plan should be amended accordingly. FISCAL IMPACT: With the exception of staff time the formation and recommendations of this committee will have little or no impact. I EXHIBITS: I 1. Resolution No. f9-f . 2.
