This item would be the State Parks and Recreation Commission's ideas regarding Ponto Beach and the Carlsbad coastline in general. Dave Bradstreet asked to add the CPRS Banquet item to the agenda. UNFINISHED BUSINESS; A. Analysis & Recommendation on Facility Use Regulations Marsha Backlund gave the staff report on this item, referring to the report included in the packet, and the recommendation of staff as contained therein. In answer to questions from the Commission, Mrs. Backlund stated staff preferred to have the option to decline co-sponsorship. The Commission accepted staff's recommendation on facility use regulations. Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright X X X MINUTES Page 2 November 21, 1983 COMMISSIONERS B. Lifeguard Request for North Beach Area Dave Bradstreet gave a report on this item, stating he had discussed this with the City Manager and wanted to get all the figures on the usage of the beach, number of rescues, etc., to make a recommendation to the City Council. The State would be responsible for the lifeguards, but would need increased funds to cover this need. The Commission directed staff to continue pursuing this matter, with letters and data to be sent to the State to enable them to assess the need for lifeguards in the beach area from Buena Vista Lagoon south to Oak Street. C. Park Dedication Requirements - Calavera Hills Master Plan Dave Bradstreet reported that 90% of the Commission had visited the area, and he stated he would give a brief review of the proposal. Mr. Bradstreet used a wall map to indicate the two parcels that are presently proposed as a park site, totalling approximately 16 acres. This does not fulfill the developer's requirement for park space in the Calavera Hills area, and it has now been proposed that another 20 acres be dedicated to the City instead of park-in-lieu fees due. This 20 acres has a density of 1.5 units per acre, and would not be economically feasible for the builder to develop. The City could either develop this additional 20 acres by allowing outside groups to come in and build their own ballfieids, or could hold the land for several years and then sell it for a profit. Mr. Bradstreet stated that staff's recommendation was for the City to accept the area totalling 20 acres and forgive the $130,000 park-in-lieu fees due. If the developer builds more units than proposed, then he will be responsible for park-in- lieu fees on those additional units. The Commission discussed the feasibility of accepting this land instead of collecting the money for the fees due, with the Commissioners divided on their feelings. It was explained by Mr. Bradstreet that the land must be designated as general municipal in order to be sold at a later date. It was discussed that the Commission should recommend that the money from any such sale of land not go into the general fund, but be allotted to Parks and Recreation for the building of parks. In order for the land to be sold, there would have to be a zoning change made, but it was determined that if the land were owned by the City, that would be easier to accomplish. Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright MINUTES Page 3 November 21, 1983 COMMISSIONERS The Commission recommended the City accept the two areas indicated by the developer, totalling 20 acres, (Z2 and Y) in lieu of $130,000 park-in- lieu fees. The Commission also recommended that any funds that are derived out of the sale of that dedicated land go to the Parks Fund. Council Member Lewis stated he did not believe the Council would agree to the second recommendation made in the motion regarding the funds from the sale of the land. However, the Commissioners agreed they wanted this recommendation made. The Commission recommended any increase in the density from that now accepted or projected for this area would result in the developer being responsible for park-in-lieu fees as required. Kelly NEW BUSINESS; A. Request to Speak by Mrs. Andrews Re; Project Chairperson Dahlquist reported on this item, stating the City Council had already acted upon this. The Planning Commission approved the filling in of the finger area, but the City Council denied it. Her recommendation was that the Commission go on record for following the plans that have been made. The Commissioners discussed this topic, and the consensus of opinion was that they did not want to commit themselves to a stand on the land use element, as the general plan needs to be revised. Council Member Lewis commented there is going to be a meeting with Planning, staff and Council, and he recommended the Commission send representatives to that meeting. The representatives from this Commission would be Commissioners McFadden, Cochran and Popovich. The Commission requested their representatives to emphasize that Parks & Recreation would like to be included in the planning process on any projects that pertain to their area, prior to any changes in the master plan. B. Police Shooting Range - Macario Canyon Park Doug Duncanson, Park Superintendent, gave the staff report on this item, stating the City Council allotted funds for this range. He used a wall map showing the two potential sites for this shooting range: 1 - Hidden Valley and 2 - the middle section of the entry area. Staff recommends the westerly site be adopted as the site for the temporary shooting range, which is site #2. Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright Dahlquist Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright X X MINUTES Page 4 November 21, 1983 COMMISSIONERS The Commission accepted staff's recommendation to locate the temporary Police Shooting Range at Site #2, the westerly site. Chairperson Dahlquist requested permission to take Item 7A. Senior Citizen Site Location Study, out of order and the Commission concurred. A. Senior Citizen Site location Study Chairperson Dahlquist reported on the meetings held with the Sr. Citizens' representatives and Mayor Casler and Council Member Chick, and the report issued as a result of those meetings. She stated this would be an off-agenda item at the November 22, 1983, Council Meeting, and gave some of the major points in the report. The Senior Citizens will have use of the recreation hall Monday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and will be responsible for set-up and take-down. Parks & Recreation will be in charge of the scheduling for the Center, with priorities to be: 1, the City; 2, Senior Citizens' Association; 3, Others. The Saturday night bingo game charge will be $30 per hour. The long-range plan is for the Senior Citizens to take over complete use of Harding Street Center after construction of the Safety Center. Dave Bradstreet added that the Senior Citizens were to take over where HUD and Research and Analysis are located, and some time down the road after another Community Center is built, the Parks and Recreation staff will move out. C. Election of New Chairperson Chairperson Dahlquist announced the election of officers would be held at this time to enable the new Chairperson to take office January 1, 1984. Commissioner McFadden was nominated for the office of Chairperson, and the motion was made to aceept Mrs. McFadden as Chairperson by acclamation. Commissioner Wright was nominated for the office of Vice-chairman, and the motion was made to accept Mr. Wright as Vice-Chairman by acclamation. Vice-chairman McFadden took over the Chairing of the Meeting, as Chairperson Dahlquist had to leave. Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright X X MINUTES Page 5 November 21, 1983 COMMISSIONERS D. Christmas Potluck Dinner Set for December 19, 1983 Dave Bradstreet reported the potludc dinner is set for Monday, December 19, 1983, at 6:00 p.m. The meeting will be held from 6:00 to 7:00 and the dinner will start at 7:00 p.m. Each person is to bring a covered dish and a tree ornament. It was asked that this year each person give his own "history" and not that of his neighbor. E. Stage Coach Park Development Dave Bradstreet used two large maps to show the two alternatives for this development. Staff recommended the second alternative, although it is more expensive. There would be much more use from this area by developing as shown on the second alternative. This park is approximately two years away as far as being used. The grading costs will be high, but will result in much more usable space. The Commission accepted staff's recommendation to develop according to Alternate |2 for Stagecoach Park. COUNCIL REPORT; Council Member Lewis reiterated his thought the Commission should send representatives to the meeting with the Planning Commission and Council. Commissioner Conti commented that he felt projects should be co-ordinated, such as the widening of Alga Road and the grading being done for the new golf course along that portion of the road. B. Tree Committee There was a discussion about a future meeting of this Committee. C. Educational Park Concept This concept was dropped. D. Levante School Development Plans Commissioner Donovan brought this matter up at the last meeting, and Dave Bradstreet had a map showing the site. It was decided that a misunderstanding had caused the concern that some of the fields would be lost to the new school, but that would not happen. DIRECTOR'S REPORT: Dave Bradstreet added to his report that his Department had expanded to include the Building and Maintenance Department. Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright MINUTES Page 6 November 21, 1983 COMMISSIONERS ADDITIONAL BUSINESS; A. Community Center at Magee Park Dave Bradstreet gave the staff report on this item, stating he was asking the Conmission's permission to investigate the feasibility of building a 10,000 to 12,000 square feet building for a Community Center at Magee Park. He stated Magee Park falls within the funding area for block grants, and when the City no longer has Harding Street Center, a Community Center would be needed. He stated Magee Park was geared for Senior Citizen use, and the City does not utilize the area to the fullest extent, and it was felt a Community Center building there would be very compatible with the area. The Commission directed Dave Bradstreet to investigate other options open to the City for the use of block grant money other than building a Community Center in Magee Park. State Parks & Recreation topic (CPRS banquet) was added by Dave Bradstreet. He announced the banquet would be December 7, at 6:30 p.m., at Tom Ham's Restaurant in San Diego. The Commissioners can attend without charge, but must pay for their companion. ADJOURNMENT; By proper motion, the meeting was adjourned at 7:08 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Harriett Babbitt Minutes Clerk Popovich Donovan McFadden Conti Cochran Wright FICTITIOUS BUSINESS NAME STATEMENT FILE NO. 83 24311 The following persons are doing business as: DEFT.

October 14, 1983 TO: Parks & Recreation Director FROM: Administrative Assistant, Parks & Rec. CO-SPONSORSHIP OF ACTIVITIES/PROGRAMS Discussion The Parks & Recreation Commission at their meeting in September directed staff to prepare a report on the co-sponsorship of various programs and activities. The department is very selective about the events it co-sponsors. We examine how the activity can benefit both organizations. Generally, specific criteria is used to determine whether or not a group can be sponsored: The activity should: 1. Create a positive public relations image, or 2. Bring in more participants, or 3. Generate revenue Since July of 1982, the department has co-sponsored four organizations including: 1. North Coast Aquatics-Gong Show 2. San Diego Swim Masters - 4 Swim Meets 3. United States Synchronized Swim - Swim Meet 4. Junior Women's Club - Haunted House There also is the case where the department will contact an organization and ask them to become involved in an event. This included: 1. Pea Soup Andersen's - Triathlon 2. Senior Citizens' Association - St. Patrick's Day Luncheon In order to get an idea of how other cities deal with this situation, ten cities in San Diego County were contacted. The responses were: 1. Oceanside, San Marcos, Lemon Grove, El Cajon, Poway, National City, and Chula Vista - No Policy 2. Escondido - No written policy. The department does, however, have the option to draft a contract and receive 10% of the profits. 3. Vista - The groups pay the base fee charged for use of the facility plus 10% of gross receipts. 4. La Mesa - Written rules & policies Attachment A CO-SPONSORSHIP OF ACTIVITIES/PROGRAMS October 14, 1983 Page 2 Alternatives 1. Keep the status quo. Staff will decide whether or not to co-sponsor an organization. 2. Adopt rules and regulations regarding co-sponsorship. 3. Collect 10-20% of an organization's net profits. Recommendation Staff recommends alternative I. Staff will continue to decide whether or not an organization should be co-sponsored.

RECEIVED OCT 0 7 1983 DATE: July 27, 1983 TO: Morris Vance, City Manager FROM: James T. Porter, Director of Parks and Recreation RE: In-Service Training Today, I conducted an in-service training program for our recrea- tion division staff including Supervisor Cathy Brendel and Sr. Recreation Leaders Jean Cole and Evie Daniel. We covered the following topics: 1. Recreation Division Goals. Co-sponsored programs were stressed with a main emphasis on getting others to provide activities with the department supplementing them. It was felt that the City's bottom line obligation in community recreation was to provide for land acquisition, providing facilities, administration and basic maintenance. Anything over the aforementioned basics should be fee supported. 2. Co-Sponsorships and Contracts. It was felt that we should revise our fee schedule for facility usages to increase the costs for commercial recreation activities, i.e., teen dances, softball tournaments, etc. We should also charge fees for department co-sponsored activities equivalent to the old com- mercial recreation fee, plus 10% of gross receipts. This way if we felt the program was in the best interests of the community, we could offer to co-sponsor the activity. We would also have better control of what's occurring at the park. 3. Facility Usage Rules. Several changes were made, including reclassifying various groups of users. Upgrading fees for the group picnic pavilion was discussed. A revised facility usage schedule will be forthcoming. 4. Facility Lease Agreements. We explored expanding our lease with the Y.M.C.A., including the possibility of allowing the "Y" to take over running the Tiny Tot program. It was felt that, due to the impending remodeling of the Community Center, we shouldn't modify the lease at this time. We discussed re- locating the Kulture Karavan office, the Historical Society office and the Y.M.C.A. usage areas. This will be discussed further when we begin our remodeling. It was felt that we should not lease the whole facility, and that it was important to retain portions of the Community Center for general community usage. 5. Recreation Classes. It was felt that the old method of provid- ing recreational instructional programs were a thing of the past, If we were to develop new classes, they should be shorter in duration and have an expressed following. New marketing tech- niques were needed in advertising.

SEVENTY-FOURTH DISTRICT October 19, 1983 Ms Shirley Dahlquist Chairperson Parks and Recreation Commission City of Carlsbad 1200 Elm Avenue Carlsbad, California 92008 Dear Ms I appre/oirate your sending me a copy of your letter con- cerning lifeguards between the area north of Oak Street and the mouth of the Buena Vista Lagoon in Carlsbad. A member of my staff has looked into the situation and found that there are some problems preventing the State Parks Department from complying with your wishes. State Public Resources Code Sections 5003 and 5007 define the powers and duties of the Department and limits it legal authority to spend money for care, maintenance or control on lands which are not part of the state park system. The system is allowed to enter into contracts with political subdivisions such as cities and counties in order to care, maintain or control lands not under the Department's jurisdiction. The beach in question above the mean high tide is privately owned with the exception of three, 50-foot-wide stairway accesses owned by the City of Carlsbad. It is my under- standing that these accesses are not suitable for towers; land below the mean high tide is unsuitable for towers; and the Department is not empowered to place facilities on private property. Thank you for keeping me apprised of your concerns. RobrerrC. Frazee Assemblyman, 74th District Attachment B November 16, 1983 TO: CITY MANAGER FROM: Parks & Recreation Director CALAVERA HILLS MASTER PLAN PARK DEDICATION REQUIREMENTS Background Calavera Hills Master Plan requires between 19.26 and 21.1 acres of land to be dedicated for park purposes. This acreage was based on different figures supplied by the developer and City staff. In order for the City to meet their community park guidelines, the developer agreed, if certain densities were increased, to dedicate two parcels totalling 17.8 acres for park land that is centrally located and is adjacent to one another. This dedication of 17.8 acres will leave a deficit of between 1.4 and 3.1 acres, which has a value of $124,410 to $281,880. Developer Estimated Units City Estimated Units in May MFD 2,293 2,560 SFD 866 936 Park Acres Required 18.3 21.1 Acres to be Dedicated 17.86 17.86 Deficit 1.43 3.24 Fee Requirements $124,410 $281,880 To fulfill the developer's remaining park requirements, he proposes to donate to the City for general municipal purposes an additional 20 acres, Area Y and Z-2 (refer to attached exhibit). The developer also agrees that if he builds more units than he has indicated, up to the City's maximum density, he then would pay the appropriate park fee for each additional unit constructed. Recommendation Accept the 20 acres of land, Area Y & Z-2, for general municipal purposes with a condition that the developer pay park fees for each additional unit that may be constructed beyond his projections up to the City's maximum density. Alternatives 1. Accept the 20 acres of additional donated land for general municipal purposes in lieu of park fee requirements. 2. Reject the 20 acre donation and require the developer to pay a park fee between $124,410 and $281,800. Attachment C CALAVERA HILLS MASTER PLAN PARK DEDICATION REQUIREMENTS November 16, 1983 Page 2 Potential Use of the 20 Acres - Open Space - Agriculture - Athletic Field Development (outside organization) - Sell Land for Future Housing Development Development Issues - Access - Grading - Sewer - Soil Types - Water - Slopes - Electricity - Land Use Compatibility Analysis/Discussion Investigation has found that the subject parcel will sometime in the future have access to: - Sewers - Water - Electricity - Entry Ways The land in question has steep slopes, Area Y is relatively flat but very •rocky, and the total acreage will require extensive grading. There is enough cut and fill to level approximately ten acres of usable land. Drainage could be a major consideration. The existing densities would have to be changed to make it economically feasible for housing development. The current zoning is "Estate." Outside athletic organizations may find the land attractive for field develop- ment. Some of the land may be conducive for agriculture purposes. Finally, the City may choose to leave the area as open space. There is not enough Park-In-Lieu funds in District II to develop the 17.8 acre community park. To date, the district only has $56,000. It is estimated that the cost to construct the park site will be approximately 1.2 million dollars. Revenue from PFF is to be channeled into the park development program in the future.
