MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Jeremy Laurentowski, Parks & Recreation Director
BY: Stephanie Anderson, Recreation Services Manager
DATE: 01/03/2024 Regular Meeting
SUBJECT: Consider Request from Moorpark Girls Softball Association to Install
Permanent Batting Cages at Arroyo Vista Community Park; and Making
a Determination of Exemption Under the California Environmental
Quality Act in Connection Therewith
BACKGROUND
Since 1997, Moorpark Girls Softball (MGS) has entered into several Use Agreements with
the City for use of ballfields at Mountain Meadows and/or Arroyo Vista Community Parks.
The term of the initial Use Agreement was for five years at a cost of one dollar per year.
At that time, MGS was allowed priority use of both softball fields at Mountain Meadows
Park. In 1999, the Agreement was amended to allow use of the two existing softball fields
(fields #1 and #2) at Arroyo Vista Community Park (AVCP), plus a temporary field which
MGS would eventually install as softball field #3. In 2004, softball field #4 was constructed
and subsequently this field was added to MGS’s Use Agreements.
Until 2012, the financial provisions of the Use Agreements did not change significantly.
However, in 2012, due to budgetary constraints and rising park maintenance costs, all
Youth Sport Organizations with Use Agreements were charged an hourly rate (rather than
$1.00 per year) to utilize their assigned fields. These hourly rates are approximately equal
to the costs to maintain the fields and are calculated on a three-year basis, which aligns
with the current contract term.
Currently, MGS has use of all four softball fields at AVCP as well as the snack bar and
the east side of the storage room located at the center of the ballfields (Premises). MGS’s
primary use is during their spring season, which generally runs from February through
July of each year and their fall season which runs from August through November. They
also hold tournaments at the premises.
Item: 10.I.

A provision of the Agreement requires MGS to maintain the Premises during their season,
including the maintenance of the infield areas, such as grading, adding infield mix, and
picking up trash and debris. Additionally, MGS was required to maintain the base pegs,
pitcher’s mound, home plate, backstops, bleachers, and dugouts on ballfields #1 and #3.
In addition to these routine maintenance items, the Agreement allows MGS to install
improvements at the Premises with certain conditions.
DISCUSSION
Recently, MGS requested permission to install batting cages between softball fields #2
and #3 at AVCP to enhance their program. The batting cages would be utilized by them
during their spring and fall seasons, as well as during tournaments. The batting cages
footprint would measure 60 feet by 39 feet and would include two fully fenced inside lanes
for batting practice and two outer lanes for pitching practice. The location of the batting
cages will allow for a 5 foot pedestrian clearance on the west side and 8 foot maintenance
clearance on the east side (to allow mowers and other equipment sufficient space to get
through). MGS proposal, which includes a site diagram and basic specifications, is
attached to this report as part of Amendment No. 1.
The improvements proposed by MGS will not only provide value to the MGS program
participants but will provide value to Moorpark residents as well. Currently, batting cages
are located only at Poindexter Park. AVCP, the City’s only community park, does not
have this amenity. The improvements proposed by MGS will be available to rent by the
general public – as administered by the City – when not in use by MGS.
MGS’s Facility Use Agreement includes Section 14, Improvements, which provides the
general parameters for making additional or alterations to the Premises, including the
requirement for MGS to maintain any improvements they install at their sole cost and
expense. Amendment No. 1 (attached) has been prepared to detail and specifically
approve the improvements discussed in this report. This Amendment also adds to the
Improvements section specific requirements that must be met when paid contractors are
used on a project, such as compliance with Prevailing Wage Rates and the City’s
Construction and Demolition Ordinance, in addition to working hours, storm water runoff,
and noise restrictions.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The California Environmental Quality Act (Section 21000, et. seq. of the California Public
Resources Code, hereafter CEQA) requires analysis of agency approvals of discretionary
“projects.” A “project,” under CEQA, is defined as “the whole of an action, which has a
potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a
reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” The proposed
Project is a project under CEQA.
560
Honorable City Council
01/03/2024 Regular Meeting
Page 3
The Community Development Director has reviewed the Project to determine the required
level of review under CEQA. The proposed Project is exempt from CEQA under State
CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities). This exemption applies to projects
involving the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor
alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or
topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing
at the time of the lead agency’s determination. This is an improvement to modify existing
ballfield facilities.
FISCAL IMPACT
There are no cost implications to the City, as the improvements, and maintenance of the
improvements, will be paid for by MGS at their sole cost. There may be an increase in
rental revenue for the City, from rental use of the batting cages.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE
This action does not support a current strategic directive.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement between the City of Moorpark and Moorpark
Girls Softball for the installation of batting cages at Arroyo Vista Community Park; and
authorize the City Manager to sign the Agreement, subject to final language approval of
the City Manager.

ATTACHMENT 1
562
Page 2 of 4
improvements shall be paid by MGS. Fencing, shade screens (if installed), and
synthetic turf must be repaired within seventy-two (72) hours of notification that
repair is needed. Fencing, shade screens, and synthetic turf shall be replaced if
determined by the City said material is too worn to repair or has outlived its
useful life and requires replacing. Said items shall be replaced within twenty-one
(21) calendar days of notification of the need for replacement.
Improvements made using any paid labor, hired services, or independent
contractors (collectively “Contractor”) are subject to the following conditions.
MGS is responsible for ensuring Contractor complies with these conditions.
A. All work shall be completed under prevailing wage rates. Contractor shall be
required to comply with all apprenticeship requirements as outlined in Labor
Code Sections 1720 et seq. and 1770 et seq. and 1777 et seq. All contractors
and all subcontractors must be registered with the California Department of
Industrial Relations pursuant to SB 854, and submit certified payroll reports
as required.
B. Contractor must hold a valid Class A, General Engineering and/or Class C13,
Fencing, State of California Contractor's License, and have carried a valid
Class A and/or Class C13 license continuously for the last five years.
C. Contractor shall obtain a City Business Registration prior to commencing

generated during the project from disposal in a landfill (through reuse or
recycling). Contractors have two options to meet this requirement.
Contractors may use the City’s franchised hauler (Waste Management), who
can provide temporary bins and will dispose of waste at a City authorized
facility. Alternatively, Contractors may self-haul waste to a City authorized
certified C&D processing facility. Self-haul of waste must be done in proper
hauling vehicles and bins owned by Contractor and those vehicles must be
driven by Contractor’s employees. Because this is a prevailing wage project,
the self-haul vehicle drivers must be paid prevailing wage rates for driving
C&D materials to the authorized facility.
E. Contractor must comply with all applicable storm water and urban runoff
permits, regulations, codes, and laws.
F. Contractor shall take precautions to mitigate blowing of dust and dirt and shall

on the project and shall comply with all applicable federal, state, local and
other safety laws, standards, orders, rules, regulations, and building codes
to prevent accidents or injury to persons on, about, or adjacent to the
premises where work is being performed and to provide a safe and
healthful place of employment.
3. Prior to starting work, Contractor shall verify that work areas are
completely secured to ensure separation of Contractor operations from the
public. Contractor is responsible for providing, installing, and maintaining
barricades, enclosures, and other protective equipment in accordance with
applicable federal, state, and local codes and their respective
requirements.
4. Contractor shall ensure that areas to remain unaltered adjacent to areas
of work are properly secured and protected.
K. Contractor shall leave the site and surrounding areas clean and free of any
debris or other unsuitable materials.
L. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to locate all existing utilities and
protect them from damage.
