The motion was carried 4 -0. Commissioner Dubreuil was absent. 8. DISCUSSION /ACTION ITEMS: A. 1998/99 Parks Capital Improvement Budget. Staff Recommendation: Commission to approve a recommended list of Park Capital Improvement Projects for inclusion in the FY 1998/99 Budget for City Council consideration. Ms. Lindley presented a summary of the Agenda Report. Commissioner Badoud suggested that since $10,000 was previously budgeted for AVCP Phase II Conceptual Design and the low bid was for approximately $13,000, that an additional $3,000 be budgeted in FY 1998/99 for this project. He also recommended that the City delay improvements to unimproved parking lots 1 and 2. Commissioner Thompson expressed concern about proceeding with AVCP Phase II in light of the issue of funding park maintenance. She indicated that she could not support the additional allocation of $3,000 to complete the design project. MOTION: Commissioner Badoud moved to recommend the allocation of $3,000 to complete the AVCP Phase II Conceptual Design and to defer improvements to the parking lots. Commissioner Oberg seconded. The motion was carried 3 -1, with Commissioner Thompson opposed. Commissioner Dubreuil was absent. Commissioner Oberg stated that he was not in favor of replacing the destroyed gazebo at Poindexter Park at this time, using park improvement funds, unless the City is able to identify a structure that is better able to withstand vandalism. He stated that he would even be willing to see the City spend more money if a stronger structure could be found. C: W\COMM &COU\PRMINMAR. WPD Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting March 2, 1998 Page 3 Commissioner Thompson concurred and suggested that the Commission and staff speak to the various vendors who will be present at the CPRS Conference for suggestions. Commissioner Badoud stated that a wooden gazebo is more prone to damage and that the City should consider a structure made of a different material. Commissioner Thompson stated that she believed that the cost estimate for a permanent goal post at Campus Canyon Park was too high. She also stated that at the time the last park tour was conducted, the Commission discussed planting more trees along the north wall and moving the proposed new goal post as far south as possible. Ms. Lindley stated that she would confirm the cost and note any adjustment. Commissioner Badoud stated that some of the play equipment at Campus Park may have been replaced within the last couple of years. This equipment would not need to be replaced, thereby saving money. Commissioner Thompson stated that the tot lot equipment was replaced. Commissioner Oberg suggested that the Commission consider reducing the scope of the equipment replacement, thereby reducing the cost to approximately $30,000. Ms. Lindley stated that she would make copies of the bid proposals the City received on play equipment replacement so that the Commissioners could evaluate which equipment to delete. MOTION: Commissioner Badoud moved that a decision on Zone 3 be deferred until after the Park Tour in March and the CPRS Conference. Chair Parvin seconded. The motion was carried 4 -0. Commissioner Dubreuil was absent. Commissioner Oberg suggested that the Commission defer a decision on replacing the play equipment at Peach Hill CAM\COMM &COU\PRMR, MAR.

MOTION: Commissioner Badoud moved that the Commission recommend funding the resurfacing of parking lots at Peach Hill Park but not replacing the play equipment. Commissioner Thompson seconded. The motion failed 2 -2, with Commissioners Parvin and Oberg opposed. Commissioner Dubreuil was absent. Commissioner Oberg asked Ms. Lindley to explain the idea behind the security gates for Country Trail Park. Ms. Lindley stated that they would be used to close the park when it floods due to heavy rain. Commissioner Badoud stated that since the park rarely floods, the gates may not be needed. Commissioner Oberg suggested that staff identify other fence options that would cost less, such as the orange temporary fence that was used in February. Chair Parvin stated that she would like to see something other than the orange fence, something that looks more attractive and fits in with the existing fence. Commissioner Badoud suggested that the Commission defer any expenditure to resurface the parking lot at Mountain Meadows to a later year. MOTION: Commissioner Oberg moved to defer all improvements in Zone 5 to a later year. Commissioner Badoud seconded. The motion was carried 4 -0. Commissioner Dubreuil was absent. Commissioner Oberg stated that he was in favor of deferring a decision on improvement to the play equipment for Glenwood Park until the Commission's April meeting. C: N\COMM &COU\PRMINMAR. WPD Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting March 2, 1998 Page 5 Commission Badoud asked that consideration be giving to installing lights for the basketball courts. He asked staff to get a cost estimate for the April meeting. Commissioner Oberg stated that he would rather see the play equipment replaced first before considering basketball court lights. MOTION: Commissioner Badoud moved to defer a decision on Zone 6 until the April meeting. Commissioner Oberg seconded. The motion carried 4 -0. Commissioner Dubreuil was absent. MOTION: Commissioner Thompson moved to forward the Commission's recommendations for park improvement projects to the Budget and Finance Committee for consideration. Commissioner Parvin seconded. The motion carried 4 -0.. Commissioner Dubreuil was absent. The Commissioners concurred to ask staff to agendize the deferred items for the April Commission meeting. B. Schedule Parks and Recreation Commission's Bi- annual Park Tour. Staff Recommendation: Schedule a Park Tour for the Commission and staff. Commissioner Badoud asked if staff could identify a tentative schedule as to when the Commission would be at each park. This would be used to notify the public in the event members of the public wanted to be present. He also asked that the schedule be posted on the City's cable channel. Ms. Lindley indicated that this could be done. The date of Sunday, the next Park Tour. this date and time. C:\M\COMM &COU\PRMINMAR.

Staff Recommendation: Commission to select two of its members to serve on an ad hoc committee to review the approved park donation guidelines, identify steps to implement the donation program, and return to the Commission with findings and a recommendation. Commissioner Badoud stated that he agreed with the staff recommendation and indicated that he was not available to serve on an ad hoc committee at this time. MOTION: Commissioner Oberg moved to form an ad hoc committee comprised of Chair Parvin and Commissioner Thompson to review the existing Park Donation Policy and to recommend its implementation. Commissioner Badoud seconded. The motion carried 4 -0. Commissioner Dubreuil was absent. 9. ANNOUNCEMENTS /FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS: Commissioner Thompson requested that consideration be given to conducting the CPRS Conference debriefing in a more informal setting as was done several years ago.

WPD APPROVED: JANICE PARVIN CHAIRMAN 1 2 - A-9 CITY OF MOORPARK PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT TO: Parks and Recreation Commission FROM: Mary K. Lindley, Director Community Services DATE: March 24, 1998 (Meeting of April 6, 1998) SUBJECT: Consider Proposed Park Capital Improvement Budget for FY 1998/99 At its meeting on March 2, 1998, the Commission was asked to review the Park Improvement Fund (212) and to provide the City Council with a recommendation on park capital improvement projects for FY 1998/99. At that time, the Commission made several recommendations and deferred consideration of projects in certain parks until after the Park Tour, scheduled for March 29. In summary, the Commission made the following recommendations in regards to park capital improvements: Allocate $3,000 in addition to the $10,000 that was allocated in FY 1997/98 for completion of the AVCP Phase II conceptual design. This action was in response to the bid proposal the City received to perform the design work. Defer all improvements in Zone 5 (Mountain Meadows area) to a later year. Defer consideration of improvements for replacing the gazebo at Poindexter Park, improvement in Zone 3 (Campus Park area), and improvements in Zone 4 (Peach Hill area) until after the Park Tour and CPRS conference. Staff has provided revised and updated attachments, following the recent park tour, to aid the Commission in its decision making process. Attachment A is an updated report on the status of the Park Improvement Fund (212) and the fund balances in the various zones. Attachment B is a list of the various park improvements that the Commission may wish to take into consideration. Where called for, I have revised the estimated costs for certain projects. Staff recommends that the Parks and Recreation Commission identify park capital improvements for FY 1998/99 for consideration by the City Council.

C OM 9--2 CITY OF MOORPARK PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT TO: Parks and Recreation Commission FROM: Mary K. Lindley, Director of Community Services DATE: March 24, 1998 (Meeting of April 6, 1998) SUBJECT Review Proposed Recreation Programs, Special Events, and Projects for Inclusion in the FY 1998/99 Budget The City is in the process of developing its budget for FY 1998/99. The Recreation Division has submitted a draft proposal for programs, special events, and projects which is being presented to the Commission for its review and comment. By way of background, the Recreation Division concentrates the majority of its operations and activities at the Arroyo Vista Recreation Center. The Division is supervised by a Recreation Superintendent, Shelly Shellabarger, and its activities include classes, special events, youth and adult sports programs, day camps, teen programs, and general recreation promotional efforts (recreation brochure). This agenda report serves to summarize the proposed activities for FY 1998/99. Recreation classes are provided by the Division using contract instructors. The instructors enter into a contract with the City to provide services. The City collects the registration fees and shares the fees with the instructors, usually on a 60/40 split (instructor receives 60 percent of the fees, the City retains 40 percent). Most classes are held at City facilities. Recreation classes are designed to be self - sustaining; that is, they should generate enough revenue to cover all direct and in- direct costs attributed to providing the service. From time -to -time, this requires staff to evaluate class fees. During FY 1997/98, staff has attempted to eliminate classes that have not proven to be popular and to add new classes that would be of interest to Moorpark residents. Eliminating classes that tend to cancel due to low registrations saves the City money on administrative costs. As a result, we have seen a decrease in our cancellation rate. Additionally, staff installed a new registration software program that makes it much easier to process and track recreation registrations, and in March, staff successfully implemented credit card transactions which greatly facilitates the registration process and enhances our customer service. Staff plans to continue with these efforts in FY 1998/99. C ADOC S\AI)MIN\RECPROGS. C OM Recreation Program FY 1998/99 Budget Review March 26, 1998 Page 2 With the loss of the park maintenance assessment district, the Council's Budget and Finance Committee is currently recommending for Council consideration a significant reduction in the number of special events for FY 1998/99. Additionally, the City Council took action in March to proceed with the 1998 3rd of July Fireworks event and to eliminate the 1998 Community Celebration. To that end, staff has looked at focusing its efforts on a limited number of special events and restructuring those events so that they generate sufficient revenue to cover a significant portion, if not all, of their costs. Additionally, staff plans to solicit more interest from volunteers, thereby reducing some part-time staff hours. Staff is proposing the following special events: ► 3rd of July Fireworks ► Easter Egg Hunt - Consider charging a nominal fee and soliciting donations ► Halloween - Consider charging a nominal fee and soliciting donations ► Visits with Santa - This event was discontinued in FY 1997/98. It has the potential of generating revenue in excess of its expenses. Staff would like to offer the program again. ► Christmas Holiday Event - Staff is working on a new event to replace Breakfast with Santa. A fee would be charged. Craft Fair - This event has traditionally netted some revenue. Staff will evaluate ways to increase the event's net revenues in FY 1998/99. The Division sponsors several youth sports leagues, including Junior Basketball, T -Ball, and Roller Hockey. Additionally, throughout the year we attempt to offer sports camps and/or demonstrations. This past year, our basketball and T -ball leagues were very successful. In fact, this Winter we could have expanded the number of basketball teams, but were limited due to the competing need with MBA for indoor gym space. We continue to have difficulty generating sufficient enrollment for roller hockey. Staff recently met with a private roller hockey firm that plans to present a proposal for organizing and operating a youth roller hockey league in Moorpark. Our tennis classes can also be considered under youth and adult sports, although we handle them like a recreation class. Interest in the City's tennis classes is always very strong. CADOC S\AI )M1N\RECPROGS. C OM l � Recreation Program FY 1998/99 Budget Review ` March 26, 1998 Page 3 i Like our recreation classes, our youth sports leagues are designed to be self - sufficient. The fees we charge should cover all direct and in- direct costs. To hold costs and fees to a minimum, the Division relies on volunteer coaches. During FY 1998/99, staff plans to increase publicity for our youth sports programs. At the suggestion of Commissioner Badoud, staff is attending opening day for each of the Moorpark youth sports organizations to distribute information. The Division offers several adult sports leagues including softball, basketball, and volleyball. Over that last couple of years, we have not been successful in getting enough interest to hold a volleyball league. In its place, we have offered "open gym" volleyball where adults can participate in a "pick up" game. This past year, the Division very successfully implemented a new women's league that rotates to a different sport each season. The league consists of approximately 45 women who started with basketball, are now playing volleyball, and will move on to basketball again in the Spring. Adult sports leagues are designed to generate additional net revenue over and above their costs. Staff is mindful that fees need to be competitive with surrounding jurisdictions. Staff plans to continue with adult sports leagues in FY 1998/99. In addition to youth and adult sports leagues, the Division also offers "open" gym time when adults and youth can use the basketball facilities. In the past, open gym has always been available at no cost to players. In an effort to offset the Division's costs for staff time and facility use, we have begun a demonstration program which involves charging $2 for open gym on Sundays. This demonstration will be evaluated in June to determine whether or not it should continue and/or be expanded to cover all open gym time. Surrounding jurisdictions also charge a nominal fee for open gym use. The Division has traditionally offered a summer day camp for kids. Camp includes fun activities, crafts, games, and excursions. The fees generated by Camp have typically generated revenue in excess of its expenses. Last year the Division experienced less net revenue than in years past. Staff is evaluating ways to reduce Camp costs, and is also considering fee increases. No final recommendation has been made regarding camp fees for FY 1998/99. Additionally, staff is proposing a Winter Camp and Spring Camp to fill C:\D0CS\ADM1N\RECPR0GS.00M Recreation Program FY 1998/99 Budget Review March 26, 1998 Page 4 the needs of working parents during school breaks. The initiation of these camps will depend on enrollment. The City has a very small budget for teen programs. Unlike most of the other programs under the Recreation Division, teen programs are generally not intended to net any revenue and are often offered at no cost to the participant. Over the last three months, Division staff have been working hard on evaluating existing teen programs and identifying new activities that have the potential of generating new interest. To that end, for FY 1998/99 staff proposes after- school teen drop -in activities at AVRC. Two days a week would be set aside for games and crafts. We have purchased a ping -pong table, foosball table, and video games for use on the AVRC big- screen T.V. Twice a week the portable skateboard ramps will be set up for use by skateboarders and in -line skaters. Fridays will be set aside for special activities like band jams, pizza parties, etc. As a part of the Budget and Finance Committee's preliminary efforts to cut general fund expenditures to make up for the loss of the park maintenance assessment, the teen coordinator position, along with other part-time recreation staff hours, was identified for elimination. Should these hours be eliminated in the final budget, the Division will need to rely on full -time staff to carry out these activities to a greater extent. The use of volunteers will be critical since teen activities require supervision. The new items proposed by staff for implementation in FY 1998/99 have not been presented to the City Manager, the Budget and Finance Committee, nor the City Council. They represent department staff's preliminary ideas. The Commission is being asked to consider staffs proposals and to provide comments regarding the addition or deletion of programs. Review the proposed Recreation Division programs for 1998/99 and provide staff with comments. C ADOCS\ADMINMRECPROGS.
