INFO AB# 804-7 TITLE:
MTG. DATE: 08/16/04 INTERIM USE OF SAFETY CENTER BALL FIELD
ACTION L STAFF: PRICE I I I
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Accept and file staff update.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
The Pine Avenue Community Park is anticipated to begin construction by the beginning of 2005.
The site currently provides a baseball/softball field that is actively used year round. As a means
of offsetting the impact to user groups from the loss of an activity playfeld, the Safety Center will
be scheduled on an interim basis to accommodate the loss of field time at Pine Avenue.
The Safety Center field will be available for "scheduled use" only until Pine Avenue Park is
completed and then the scheduled use will revert back. However, if the Safety Center site is
developed for a Public Works facility or any other function, the interim use of the ball field will
terminate. That said, staff is relatively certain that the Safety Center site will be available on an
interim basis until the new ball field at Pine Avenue Park is completed.
