1. Proposition 70 - California Wildlife, Coastal and Park Land
Conservation Bond Act of 1988.
Staff reviewed the highlights of Proposition 70 and informed
Commission that he called the State regarding the question of
"adequate tenure." Adequate tenure means the land must be
owned by the applicant, or subject to a lease for a minimum
of 10 years, which is satisfactory to the California
Department of Parks & Recreation. Acquisition of the money
is forwarded upon final approval of the plans and
specifications by the State. Twenty percent of the funds can
be used for architectural costs. Staff requested Commission
to designate a project for which they would like to have
Proposition 70 Grant monies used.
The Commission considered the following projects along with
staff's recommendations:
o Monte Vista Nature Park
o Arroyo Vista Community Park
A. Push forward with Field Hockey Federations'
Proposal for a field hockey facility
B. Help defray costs of Phase I development
C. Use for electrical, water, sewer hookups and road
access to field hockey development.
D. Use for architectural fees.
o Villa Campesina
A. Parking for foot bridge area to create park access
to that end of town.

Recreation Commission 3 December 15, 1988
o Construction of Restroom facilities in City parks
o Picnic Facilities or shelters in City parks
Commissioner Crockatt also stated he would like to see the
money go towards the development of the Downtown Park.
However, since the City does not have ownership of land for
this proposed park, he cannot request this now. If the City
does acquire property for the Downtown Park, he would
consider changing the application to request the grant funds
be used for this project. Commissioner Wheeler also
expressed interest in being able to change our application at
a later time.
Staff reported briefly on the various zone areas indicated on
the zone map and the money allocated to each zone.
MOTION: Commissioner Arambula moved and Commissioner Crockatt seconded
a motion to recommend that the monies from Proposition 70 be used for
the Arroyo Vista Community Park, Phase I, development. Motion carried
4 to 1, with Commissioner Radich opposing.
Commissioner Nainoa stated he would support the Motion but
does not agree with the philosophy that the application could
be changed at a later time.
