DATE: January 29, 2009 (CC Meeting of 02104/09)
SUBJECT: Consider Status Report on Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and
Objectives for Fiscal Year 2008/2009 and Direction for Fiscal Year
2009/2010
Attached are the City Council's approved Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and
Objectives for FY 2008/2009. In approving this document, the Council included a list of
top ten (10) priorities, which consists of forty -four (44) of the one hundred sixteen (116)
identified objectives. All objectives are placed in one of three categories (0 to 2 years; 2
to 5 years; and 5+ years) based on their estimated time for completion. The completed
document also indicates which objectives were Funded (F), Not Funded (NF), or only
required Staff Effort (SE).
A written status report on the various priorities and objectives is not included as part of
this report. The City Council Bimonthly Report provides a status on most of these items
as well as other staff work efforts. Staff will respond to specific Council questions when
this matter is considered.
Since 2001, the Council has reviewed the objectives prior to preparation of the budget
with the purpose of having more correlation between the Council approved objectives
and City Manager proposed budget.
It has been our practice to maintain a secondary list of objectives. In prior years,
several items have been elevated from this list to approved objectives by the Council.
On July 2, 2008, the Council approved a list of 52 items to remain on a list of Potential
Objectives. The list of Potential Objectives is attached to this report. Six (6) additional
Potential Objectives beginning with No. 53 are added to that list for Council
consideration.

AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council & Parks and Recreation Commission
FROM: Mary K. Lindley, Parks, Recreation & Community Services Director)*
DATE: April 2, 2009 (CC Special Meeting of April 29, 2009)
SUBJECT: Parks and Recreation Commission Recommended Capital Projects
and Objectives for Fiscal Year 2009/10
DISCUSSION
Proposed FY 2009/10 Objectives
At their meeting on March 22, the Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed the
existing Goals and Objectives related to their areas of responsibility and recommended
that any objective not completed in the current fiscal year be carried over to FY
2009/10. Additionally, the Commission recommended that an additional objective be
added to design and construct a universally accessible playground for all children,
including those with special needs, and to explore the availability for grant funding for
the projects. The Commission also recommended that the feasibility of combining
existing objectives VII A. 10 (public art at AVCP) and 11 (location and design of a spray
park) be explored.
Proposed Capital Projects
The Commission also reviewed currently budgeted park improvement projects and
discussed possible new ones for inclusion in the FY 2009/10 budget. The Commission
recommended that all capital projects currently budgeted, but not completed by the end
of the fiscal year, be carried over to the new year. The Commission also spent
considerable time touring parks and discussing potential locations for a dog park. Their
recommendation is to construct the dog park at College View Park in the southern
portion of the park, currently leased from Caltrans. The area has turf and irrigation. All
that would be required to utilize the space as a dog park is chain link fencing, rules
signage, and mutt mitt dispensers. While not required, the City might want to include a
drinking fountain for dogs. The Commission's second choice location for a dog park

was Country Trail Park. Country Trail Park's disadvantages are its limited parking, lack
of a public restroom, and requirement for significantly more fencing.
