UNFINISHED BUSINESS;
A. Use of Cadencia Park
Dave Bradstreet, Director of Parks and Recreation,
gave the report on this item, stating at the December
meeting, Cadencia Park use was discussed and the City
Council's direction for staff to look into other sites
and come up with cost figures to upgrade them. The
Commission revised its recommendation on use of the
facility, and staff discussed that recommendation with
the users of the field, the homeowners and Mike Glass,
representing La Costa Youth Association. Mr. Glass
asked Mr. Bradstreet to state their agreement with the
recommendation of the Commission. Mr. Bradstreet
stated the homeowners wanted a couple of conditions in
the agreement and all parties have agreed.
Mr. Bradstreet stated staff looked at various sites,
but felt no money should be spent to upgrade a site on
a temporary basis. League usage of Cadencia Park
would be only until a City-owned park site was
available. At that time, Cadencia would revert to a
practice facility. The League play would be completed
as close to noon on Saturday as possible.
Mr. Bradstreet added that of the eleven sites
investigated, seven were not within the City's
jurisdiction and it would not be feasible to spend
money on those.
The Commissioners felt the City Council should be
urged to pursue the completion of other fields as
quickly as possible.
Commissioner Dahlquist recommended the position of the
Commission should be reiterated to Council as passed
by motion at the December 19, 1984, meeting.
Commissioner Donovan questioned the port-a-potty
situation, and Mr. Bradstreet answered there is to be
no port-a-potty at all on the field on Saturday.
Parks and Recreation Commission accepted the agreement
as stated previously: "Cadencia Field remain an
active league field until there are adequate fields
opened in City-owned parks. At that time, Cadencia
Field should revert to a practice field. If, at any
time in the future, the need arises for an active
league field, Cadencia Field should be considered to be
re-opened."
The portable restrooms will be eliminated and
league games will be sheduled in the morning with
the attempt made to conclude as close to noon as
possible, with the starting time on Saturday
mornings to be 8:00 a.m.

B. Kelly Tree Farm
Commissioner Dahlquist asked about this item, which
was brought up at the December meeting. Dave
Bradstreet stated he had no information at the
present time, but would report at the next meeting.
NEW BUSINESS;
A. Relocation of Building on Twin Inns Property
to Leo Camllo Ranch
This item was withdrawn from the Agenda.
B. Kawasaki's Use of Agua Hedionda Lagoon
Mr. Gary Bozych, Kawasaki Corporation, addressed
the Commission requesting access to the south
shore of Agua Hedionda Lagoon to launch jet skis
for testing purposes. He stated this area is
next to the designated ski area now. They have
contacted SDG&E, who owned the land now leased to
the City, and they are agreeable to a sub-lease.
Mr. Bozych stated they are only asking for
access; there would be no building—everything is
portable. They would truck in the equipment, do
the testing and leave.
Marsha Payne stated the road goes through the
tomato field, and is gated, making it
private. Kawasaki Corporation would provide
adequate insurance.
In answer to query, Mr. Bozych stated Kawasaki
would only ask for this access until the City
felt it was necessary to change the agreement.
Mrs. Payne stated the testing would only be done
during the week, and not on the weekend, and
would cause no conflict.
Commissioner Dahlquist asked whether they were
asking for exclusive use and staff answered they
would not have exclusive use. It was determined
that other people could picnic or use the area
while they were testing.
There was a discussion about the noise level,
with Mr. Bozych stating the skis they would be
testing would be the same as those using the
lagoon.
Commissioner Regan commented about the mud in the
area during rain, and Mrs. Payne said that had
been explained to Kawasaki, with the stipulation
they would not use for three or four days
following any rain.
Mrs. Payne stated the sub-lease would be on a
year-to-year basis, with 30-day option to cancel.

Corporation request for access to the south shore

drawing up the proper agreement.
C. Calavera Hills Park/School Issue
Dave Bradstreet reported he was prepared to report
on this matter, and Mr. Casey Dunlap, Facility
Manager for the School District, was present to
answer any questions. Mr. Bradstreet used a
transparency to show the proposed school site, and
referred to Attachment C in the packet. He said
the school district would like the City to purchase
six acres and the school district purchase four
acres. Portable classrooms would be placed on the
site, with a permanent facility to be built later.
The City would acquire the six acres through
dedication or purchase, and develop that land. Mr.
Bradstreet said this was to be "joint" use, with
the school using the fields exclusively during
school hours, and the City using after those hours.
The City would build the fields and play areas.
Mr. Bradstreet stated the total acreage the City
will have in Calavera Hills for a park will be
20.32 acres, with eight acres already dedicated.
However, the exact number of acres the developer
will dedicate to the City is not known at this
time.
Mr. Bradstreet said the City Attorney thought there
might be a problem as far as the Ouimby Act is
concerned, with exclusive use of the property by
the school district. The City could purchase the
six acres or try to have it dedicated. To purchase
the land would cost $80,000 per acre, and the City
could end up with a $900,000 investment to provide
a facility adjacent to an elementary school site.
He stated the element calls for the City to utilize
school facilities as special use areas. However,
this type of concept of purchasing part of the
school site would necessitate a change in the
element to co-incide with that proposal.
Mr. Bradstreet restated the proposal of the City
purchasing or acquiring six of the ten acres
needed, with the school district purchasing the
remaining four acres, and the City building the
fields for joint use by the school and the City.
The City would do all the development and the
maintenance issues have not been addressed at this
time.
Mr. Dunlap stated this would be a further step in
the joint use agreement between the school district
and the City. They need a school site, and need
four acres for the buildings, and the City needs
park sites within the City.

January 21, 1985 COMMISSIONERS
Commissioners questioned the number of people to
live in this area at buildout, and compared this
with the number of people in the southern quadrant
where a park is desperately needed. Mr.
Bradstreet stated this land is available now and
he has been directed to go ahead with the park in
this area. In answer to query as to why Calavera
Hills Park was being considered before
Stagecoach, Mr. Bradstreet said because the land
and funds were available and he had been directed
to proceed with this park and.
Commissioner Donovan stated she did not see
anything "joint" about the proposal presented this
evening. The Parks and Recreation Director stated
the school district wants the City to buy the land
and develop it, and he felt the proposal needs more
study.
Mr. Dunlap stated the school district needs ten
acres of land and they would be willing to buy
four acres and allow the City the use of the
facility after school hours.
Commissioner Dahlquist commented that it is
illegal to restrict the use of public land.
She inquired whether there was any extra acreage
available in Calavera Hills. Mr. Bradstreet
stated there was none, inasmuch as the developer
agreed that any excess land use would be paid to
the City in fees—not land.
Commissioner Dahlquist stated she felt the
terminology should be standardized and refer to
City activities and "outside" activities. She
also felt there was no advantage to this, except
to the school district.
Commissioner Conti stated there were two legal
objections to this proposal and he felt the
Commission should wait until there is a legal
interpretation.
Chairman Wright stated this would involve
spending approximately one million dollars in an
area that has adequate park land, while other
areas need to be developed—particularly
Stagecoach Park. He agreed with Commissioner
Dahlquist that the City needs to develop the land
it has, particularly in the south portion. He
stated he wanted to direct staff to get an
interpretation on the legality of the question.
Chairman Wright reiterated the Commission does
endorse school sites next to existing parks, but
this is different and he did not feel the City
could legally participate in this type of
proposal.

January 21, 1985 COMMISSIONERS
The Commission discussed the wording on the usage
of school facilities after school hours, and
agreed this was to be free of charge.
Chairman Wright stated the Commission would
direct staff to get a legal interpretation on
this proposal and the Civic Center Act. He
added the City Council/school district liaison
committee should know of the reservations this
Commission has about the educational/park
proposal.
Review of C.I.P.
Dave Bradstreet gave the presentation on this
item, using transparencies the same as in the
packet and given to the Commissioners today.
He went through these two reports in detail,
reading from the transparencies, showing the
projects proposed and the dates they might be
completed. In answer to query as to why these
school/park projects were shown on the project
list, Frank Mannen, Assistant City Manager,
explained that some projects shown on the report
might not be viable and may even be illegal, as
suggested by the Commission. Those projects
would be dropped from the report upon
determination they were not viable or legal.
City Manager Frank Aleshire clarified the report,
stating the Department submits a list of projects
they might want to spend money on during the next
year. Ttie Commission is asked to give opinions
on those projects, and the City Council would
schedule public hearings on most of them before
any action would be taken.
As far as the school/park items, Mr. Aleshire
stated this was to be studied, and had been
requested by the City Council. However, the
Council may choose not to follow through. He
stated he had gotten a different opinion today as
to the legality of this type of proposal, and it
had been stated that it was legal to have the
joint agreement to develop the school/park site.
Mr. Aleshire suggested the Commission invite the
City Attorney to one of their meetings.
Commissioner Dahlquist asked when the Kelly
project is built up the hill, would it be
possible to get an entrance to Macario, and felt
this development should be moved up from the 115
position.
Dave Bradstreet answered, stating there are no
utilities to Macario or any access to the area.
The City Council priority is for community parks,
and although there are things going on in the
Macario area, other things will be coming up
first.

January 21, 1985 COMMISSIONERS
Commissioner Donovan asked for Stagecoach to be
moved out of the #5 position and made #4, with
Calavera Hills moved to #5. Dave Bradstreet
answered that Calavera Hills has been funded and
Stagecoach has not. Stagecoach is 11 for the
next fiscal year. He added the funding for
Calavera is a carryover from last year. In
explanation, the figures shown in the 1984-85
column should be "arrowed" over to the next
column.
Commissioner Morrison questioned the TOT, and and
asked why this no longer went to Parks and
Recreation. Frank Mannen said this was never
designated for one purpose. At one time it was
for special purposes, but that was changed a
number of years back. The bed tax was never
allocated by ordinance.
Commissioner Regan suggested these reports on
projects should be brought to the Commission in
October or November, to get their input.
Parks and Recreation Commission accepted the
Amended CIP report; with the figures to be carried
forward from the 1984-85 column; Alga Norte to be
in the 1985-86 column.
Update the Parks and Recreation Committee
Assignments
Dave Bradstreet will have a list of new committee
assignments mailed to the Commissioners.
Chairman Wright explained that Committees meet as
the need arises, with no regular meetings
scheduled.
Change of February 18, 1985, Commission Meeting
Since February 18, 1985, is a Holiday, the
Commission meeting date was changed to February 25,
1985, at Levante, if the hall is available.
Council Report
Council Liaison Pettine reported the Parks and
Recreation Department will be competing with others
on the budget hearings, but he hoped they would be
a top priority. He also expressed pleasure at the
solving of the Cadencia Park problem.
Committee Reports
Commissioner Morrison had asked for information on
the Latchkey Program, and stated there would be a
committee meeting before the next Commission
meeting.

Additional Business
Tamarack/El Camino Triangle
Commissioner Donovan stated she had gotten
telephone calls from citizens asking why the City
was landscaping part of some strips of land that
was part of a private interprise, and Dave
Bradstreet answered the Department had made a
mistake and thought the land was the City's. The
City improved the land and then found out it
belonged to the Woodward project. He stated the
City is maintaining this land now, but eventually
this will become the responsibility of the
homeowners association.
Levante Lot
The recommendation was made that something be
done with this lot—and it was noted that if the
lot were sold, this would eliminate the access to
the open space.
Agenda Item Request
Commissioner Dahlquist asked that the Hunt
Properties project be placed on the agenda for
Commission discussion.

LARWIN SPECIAL USE AREA BALL FIELD DEVELOPMENT
Background
On November 19, 1984, the Parks & Recreation Commission directed staff to
prepare a master plan for ball field development on the Larwin park site
located in District 2, north of Elm Street, east of El Camino Real. The
Commission further requested staff to contact the area homeowners association
for any volunteer assistance.
History of Land Dedication and Park Plans
o CT 72-21 Tanglewood on 2-11-77
Dedicated a total of: 7.81 acres
o CT 74-25 Tanglewood on 6-11-81
Dedicated a total of: 10.75 acres
' o CT-74-4 Quail Ridge on 6-16-81
Dedicated a total of: 4.0 acres
22.56 acres
Under the old park master plan the City was going to develop this 22 acre
site into a community park.
In June of 1982, the revised Parks and Recreation Element under the park
inventory matrix included the Larwin site as a possible community park
location.
However, after a site analysis, the consultant recommended that the Larwin
site be sold or traded for areas of higher recreation value because the land
was not conducive to community park development.
Staff has designated the Larwin site as open space and has relocated the
proposed community park to the vicinity of the Carlsbad High School site
located north of the Rancho Carlsbad Mobile Home Park. The rationale in
locating the proposed community park adjacent to the high school was that
it best met the conditions of the educational park concept.
Ball Field Master Plan Analysis
In order to determine the feasibility of developing the Larwin site into
a Special Use Area (ball field), staff has prepared a master plan including
/ cost estimates.
Attachment A-l
February 15, 1985
Page 2
The initial grading plan prepared by Rick Engineering indicates that there
is room for only one youth ball field, a small off street parking area,
and a space for a restroom. The cost to develop the proposed facility has
been estimated to be $215,000+.
Staff has been in contact with the area homeowners and homeowners association
to see if they would be interested in contributing towards the development
of this special use area. To date, the homeowners association has been non-
committal. The area homeowners along the eastern boundary of the subject
site indicated that they do not want a ball park facility next to their
homes. They would, however, like the City to develop a residential park
setting similar to Holiday Park on the flat area just west of them.
Staff has also been in contact with a potential volunteer person that would
have graded the ball field site, but feels that because there is only room
for one field, they cannot justify the cost involved for the minimal amount
of recreation use.
Summary
The Revised Parks and Recreation Element recommends that the City concentrate
on the community park development program and to continue the joint use
and development of school areas. Building the field in the Larwin area
would help in alleviating the existing ball field shortage. If the Commission
wishes to recommend to the City Council to go ahead with the proposed develop-
ment plans, it will cost approximately $215,000. Staff has included Larwin
as a possible project for consideration in the 85-86 CIP.

JANUARY 25, 1985
TO: PARKS & RECREATION DIRECTOR
FROM: Parks Superintendent
KELLY TREE FARM - DONATIONS
The Parks Division contacted Mr. Sippel, Manager of the Kelly Ranch Christmas
Tree Farm in early January regarding tree donations. To date, no response
has been given.
Staff has sinced researched the feasibility of obtaining trees from Kelly
Ranch. The analysis of this was that it would not be cost effective because
of the hand labor necessary to dig and ball-out each tree.
The Soil Conservation District has Mondell Pines availabe for $10 which are
comparable in size and are already balled into burlap. These trees are also
more drought-tolerant and insect and disease resistant than the Monterey Pines
at the Kelly Christmas Tree Farm.
Therefore, staff recommends not obtaining trees from the Kelly property but
rather using the Mondell Pine from the Soil Conservation District. It is also
recommended the Mondell be used in a tree planting program in undeveloped
areas or for replanting in various park sites.

' look forward to them.
Addenda: I saw paddle tennis being played last weekend -
two courts with 4 players on each - all mature adults
(sometimes known as senior citizens). It looked like
a good alternative to tenn-is and provided more action

TAMARACK POINTE - LANDSCAPE STRIP
In response to the request for information regarding the property adjacent
to Tamarack and La Portalada, the following data is given:
1. Tamarack Avenue improvements were dedicated as a condition of
CT 76-12, Resolution 6760.
a) This included a 30 foot right-of-way on each side of the
road which was to be landscaped.
b) The landscaping consisted of irrigation, trees and hydroseeding.
c) The hydroseeding was basically unsuccessful because of
vandalized irrigation, weed competition, and poor germination.
2. Along with the extension of Tamarack, La Portalada Street was also
extended to intersect Tamarack.
3. The new intersection of Tamarack and La Portalada created a triangle
-v of land at the northwest corner of this intersection.
a) This triangle area was also landscaped by the developer, Calavera
Hills Company, who also dedicated Tamarack.
b) The poor landscape job created requests by citizens to improve the
area.
c) The Parks and Recreation Department was informed that this triangle
is part of the road right-of-way dedication.
d) In December of 1982, a Boy Scout, for an Eagle Scout project,
coordinated with City staff the re-planting of this triangle area.
The re—planting includes drought—tolerant, low-growing, flowering
ground cover and native—type trees.
e) Subsequent to that planting, the Parks and Recreation Department
was informed that the triangle property, except for the 30 foot
right-of-way, did not belong to the City. The Parks Division
has been providing maintenance to this landscaped triangle.
4. The area east of La Portalada and north of Tamarack is a portion of
CT 84-14 being developed by the Woodward Companies.
a) A meeting and subsequent letter (see Attachment A) has outlined the
landscape improvement requested by the Parks and Recreation Department.
b) Condition 55 and 56 of CT 84-14 (Resolution #2307; Attachment B),
states that prior to final map approval, the "Developer will landscape
— } the off-site "triangle1 area..." Additionally it states, "Developer
shall be responsible for making arrangements satisfactory to the City
Council for the maintenance of the described area..."

c) To date, no final map approval has been granted.
d) Staff is in the process of notifying the developer that no final
map approval will be given until such time as condition 55 and
56 of CT 84-14 are met and necessary agreements have been worked
out.
The following attachments are given as information items:
A. Assessor's Parcel Book showing Tamarack right-of-way dedication.
B. Portion of tentative plan map of 84-14.

Dear Commissioners,
I am writing to request your permission for our ski club to hold regular year-

Bristol Cove Boat & Ski Club was formed about one year ago and now has 66 members.
During our first year we held 6 tournaments at Fiesta Island on Mission Bay and
have received many compliments on our safe, efficient sporting events. These
tournaments have been our major source of fund raising and we have used the proceeds
to buy equipment to make them safer and more entertaining for spectators and
participants.
I would also like to thank you for your cooperation and invaluable help during our
trash clean-up day some months ago, when club members walked the shores of the
lagoon and picked up debris.
I hope you each had a chance to view our 3rd Annual Christmas Parade of Lights.
We had more participants than ever before and noticed numerous cars stopped on
Adams Street to watch.
I look forward to the opportunity to discuss water-ski tournaments on Agua Hedionda
Lagoon with you at your earliest convienience.
Very truly yours,

approximately one month to complete.
The agreement between the City and School District for the District's extended
use of the pool will be presented to the Council for their approval on Tuesday,
February 19.
The practice schedule for the youth and teen track meets will begin the third
week of March. The contestants will compete locally and will eventually
reach the finals in the Los Angeles area.
On March 16, the Ail-Star basketball teams for the 3rd and 4th, the 5th and 6th,
and the 7th and 8th grades will be involved in the San Diego County Championships.
This activity is sponsored by S.C.M.A.F. (Southern California Municipal Athletic
Federation).
The Recreation Division sponsored a teen dance on February 8. It was an extreme
success with over 180 participants.
On February 7th and 8th, the City and ARC presented the "Footlight Fantasy" at
the Cultural Arts Center. This was a theater arts program for the handicapped.
Over 650 people enjoyed this marvelous play. Many thanks to Carol Behr and
the Recreation Division for all their hard work and dedication to this project.
