Consider 3rd of July Event for the Year 2000. Staff Recommendation: Provide a recommendation to the City Council regarding a 3rd of July Fireworks Event in 2000. Ms. Lindley gave a brief overview of the history of the City's fireworks event, and stated that due to the loss of the former parks' assessment district, it was necessary to eliminate this annual event in FY 1998/99. Since the passing of the current park assessment, it is now feasible to amend the budget to include a fireworks program if approved by the City Council. As in the past, the City will solicit businesses and organizations for contributions. The Commission supported staff's recommendation, and Chair Dubreuil suggested the City advertise for volunteers to serve on an ad hoc committee. The committee would assist staff with the planning and organizing of the event. MOTION: Commissioner Catrambone moved to recommend to City Council the inclusion of a fireworks event in FY 1999/2000, and to consider the formation of an ad hoc committee of volunteers to assist the City.

CALL TO ORDER: September 19, 1999 The meeting was called to order at 12:15 p.m. 2. ROLL CALL: Present: Commissioners Joseph Catrambone, Thomas Pflaumer, Sandra Thompson, and Chair June Dubreuil. Commissioner Tina Hare was absent. Staff Present: Mary Lindley, Director of Community Services; Allen Walter, Supervisor of Maintenance and Operations; and Patty Lemcke, Administrative Secretary. 3. PARK TOUR: Community Center Park Chair Dubreuil inquired as to utilizing this park for placement of some of the seniors' amenities, since its location is next to the Senior Center. Ms. Lindley explained that the Community Center Park is very heavily used during the day, and the size of the park could not accommodate the seniors needs. Villa Campesina Park The installation of play equipment at some future date was discussed. Ms Lindley stated that two picnic tables are currently on order. Glenwood Park Ms. Lindley pointed out a large portion of open sand area by the playground equipment, and utilizing it can be addressed at a later date. She also stated that plans and cost to install the necessary equipment to meet ADA standards will be provided to the Commission. Commissioner Dubreuil indicated that when the time comes to consider a Skatepark, Glenwood Park should be considered. Arrovo Vista Communitv Park It was noted that the handicapped parking spaces at the gravel parking lot need to allow easier access into the park. There are currently wooden poles being used as car stops, which impede entrance directly from the lot. The Commissioners discussed the placement and aesthetics of the storage bins belonging to the sports organizations. The location of the proposed restroom was also discussed. The location for the senior sports was discussed. Tierra Rejada Park This park is very heavily used on the weekends, and park staff has done a great job on keeping it well maintained. Mr. Walter informed the Commission that basketball hoops are on order. They are continually broken from participants "hanging" on them. Peach Hill Park Since the purchase of new play equipment is scheduled in the near future, types and styles were discussed in general. It was suggested that a more "challenging" theme may be considered for this park, focusing on children 6 years of age and older. Mr. Walter explained that the drinking fountain behind the backstop needs to be replaced, and it will be located to another spot. Campus Park Mr. Walter explained that the restrooms are temporarily closed to repair a plumbing problem. MAPLemcke \M \Commission\Park Tour - Sept.doc This neighborhood park tends not to be heavily used on the weekends. This is probably due to its location. Griffin Park The Commissioners all agreed that the new play equipment looks great. One piece needs to be repaired, and since the installation has been so recent, it was discussed that another piece of equipment may be better suited for the structure. This would eliminate having to replace the same part again, if the replacement breaks as quickly. A ramp to complete the ADA requirements for the playground will be researched. Campus Canyon Park Ms. Lindley stated that replacement of the play equipment is scheduled for this fiscal year. It was noted that parking is a problem. Mr. Walter stated that the park is heavily used all week. Parking can be a problem, and since space is very restricted, it does not seem feasible to install a parking lot. 4. ADJOURNMENT: The Park Tour was adjourned at 3:10 p.m. APPROVED: Respectfully submitted: June Dubreuil Chairperson Patty Lemcke Administrative Secretary M: \PLemcke \M \Commission\Park Tour - Sept.doc AGENDA REPORT PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION CITY OF MOORPARK TO: The Parks and Recreation Commission FROM: Mary Lindley, Director of Community Serviced Prepared by: Allen Walter, Supervisor of Maintenance and Operations DATE: October 18, 1999 (for November 1, 1999 meeting) SUBJECT: Parks Quarterly Report July 15 to October 15, 1999 • MONTE VISTA PARK: Sunridge Landscaping began regular maintenance on October 1. Park staff had been performing all maintenance (trash, weeds, etc.) to aid in recouping renovation costs incurred when the park was reopened on July 1. Some new growth of ground cover is apparent and the overall appearance is good. • VIRGINIA COLONY: Staff up- graded the raised planters with agapanthas and raps to improve the Park's entry appearance. • GRIFFIN PARK: The irrigation enclosure along Campus Drive was planted with pyracanthas to improve the appearance of the Park and hide the fence enclosure. Sunridge Landscape was notified of a gopher problem and they added additional traps. If needed, they will seek outside assistance from a pest control company, as per contract. The balance of the new playground equipment was delivered on July 19, and installed. The playground "stepping platform" was broken from normal use and was removed. The contractor is replacing the broken section with a different style and more durable platform device. • CAMPUS CANYON PARK: The replacement picnic table was delivered and installed. Parks Quarterly Report Page 2 Three Magnolias behind the ballfield backstop are diseased and will soon be dead. They will be replaced with three Carrotwoods, which are resistant to the bacteria that infected the Magnolias. Staff is working with Pederson Fence Company to schedule and coordinate replacement of the wrought iron fence along the west -side of the park. • CAMPESINA PARK: Table designs were researched for installation at the two designated picnic areas. Four manufacturers were contacted for bid requests. Bids close October 25. An irrigation problem was corrected by Sunridge. The well water was damaging the sprinklers, causing poor irrigation of the park. Sunridge installed a filter, which corrected the problem and increased the irrigation flow. Vandalism to the sprinklers is also a weekly problem. • PEACH HILL PARK: The softball lights were replaced and two light sockets on the northwest side were moved to redirect the light from a residence after a complaint was received. Sand and debris were placed in the men's room urinal, and a plumbing service was called to repair. Park staff has found several sand 'bee" nests in the playground sand. Control measures have begun, but the problem is still present. This is a seasonal problem that occurs in late summer. A large Pine tree located along the north wall split and required Delta Tree service to respond. The limb was removed. Eight additional trees were thinned to prevent damage. The drinking fountain behind the backstop needs to be replaced. All securing devices inside the fountain have become rusted and will no longer support the water bowl in place. A new I -beam fountain can be purchased for approximately $1,090. • ARROYO VISTA PARK: Tennis court construction is completed. A cost is being prepared for a 2- program clock to operate the tennis court light settings. This allows for two separate programs to follow the days of the week, since weekend court Parks Quarterly Report Page 3 times are different than weekdays. Pederson Fence Company enclosed the tennis court electrical boxes. Staff is also obtaining cost proposals for landscaping. The red curbs at the Center were re- painted. A pump truck was ordered to clean out the sewer pump storage facility. To prevent costly sewer pump grinder repairs, this service will be conducted on a quarterly basis. The mainline in the lighted ballfield was repaired, and watering has now been returned to the automated sprinkler. The south slope by the tennis courts slid down onto the turf. The soil was wet and loose. City irrigation was turned off on the slope but the with tennis court construction and irrigation modification /repair the valves may have been returned to the on position by the tennis court contractor. The slide did not damage the park's turf. Weed abatement of the area just east of the football field at AVCP, near the line of Pepper trees was conducted after the City received notice from the Ventura County Fire Protection District. In addition, the Pepper trees had to be lifted; i.e., the lower branches removed. The weed abatement was necessary because activity has increased and the adjacent area is now used for parking. The work was completed and the Fire Department was notified. The electrical transformer that operates the well controls burned out on two occasions as a result of Packer Football's use of a connected electrical outlet. The outlet has been disconnected and Packer is operating a small generator on Saturdays to power its sound system and scoreboard. Bookman and Edmonston Engineering tested the well water on September 28. This was part of a project undertaken by Calleguas Water District. The City was provided with the test results of the AVCP well water. • POINDEXTER PARK: Recycled fibar from Country Trail Park playground was spread in the planters. Parks Quarterly Report Page 4 Wall caps along pavilion wall bench were replaced, after they were broken by patrons. Unknown person(s) turned off the backflow on two occasions. Some turf loss occurred. Sunridge removed the handles to prevent further problems. The out field baseball fence became unhinged, making -urf maintenance difficult. The fence was removed after Li_zle League season ended. • COUNTRY TRAIL PARK: Eleven replacement trees were planted to replace eleven frost damaged trees. The trees were monitored until no regrowth appeared and were dead. • CAMPUS PARK: The phone company replaced the parts of the telephone that were vandalized. Campus Park restroom sewer system has been damaged by tree roots. The existing pipe is clay and has been broken by the large tree roots in the park. The new pipe, plastic PVC, will have to be installed from the restroom to the street. The cost is $5,600. The restrooms will be closed until a new pipe can be installed. The repairs should be completed by November 5. • TIERRA REJADA PARK: Unknown persons vandalized the windscreen in the court closest to the basketball court. This was the second time, making the damaged section irrepairable. A replacement panel was located and installed. • ALL PARKS: City backflows located at city parks are being re- certified by in -house staff. Park staff completed the park playground annual inspection, and rototilled all park playgrounds the week of September 7. A water audit of all parks was conducted to determine budget vs. use to date. Report on file. MEMORANDUM TO: Steve Kueny, City Manager FROM: Stephanie Shaw and Eric Dombrowski, Recreation Coordinators DATE: October 15, 1999 SUBJECT: Quarterly Report on Recreation Programming Summer Quarter: June - September 1999 This memo serves as a review and analysis of summer 1999 Recreation division programs. This report also reflects staff's efforts to identify direct costs for each program. Direct costs are all costs for a program with the exception of staff time. Part time staff costs are included in the total cost for each program. Coordinator and Superintendent hours are indicated at the end of each program section. SUMMER CAMP Summer Camp revenue increased in 1999. The reinstatement of the "choose your days" registration policy, a slight decrease in camp fees, and extensive publicity are factors contributing to this increase. While the number of children participating in Camp decreased slightly, the average daily attendance saw a sharp increase. Staffing continues to be an issue. The sudden departure of the Camp Director impacted heavily on the full -time staff. Additionally, the loss of several camp staff members toward the end of the summer and resulted in a staffing shortage which required full -time and office staff to fill in.

The Junior Basketball League continues to be the most popular youth sport's program. The price of the program in the upper division was raised due to an increase in shirt prices and referee fees, which did not negatively affect the registration numbers.

One major change that was a contributing factor to the revenue decrease for the 1999 season was the fact that only one basketball camp was offered as opposed to two in previous years. The instructor was not able to hold two this year. Skyhawks Sport's Academy was also added to the camp instructor list this season but only 2 out of 4 camps ran.

MOORPARK PARRS AND RECREATION COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT TO: The Parks and Recreation Commission FROM: Mary R. Lindley, Director of Community Services/,r- DATE: October 20, 1999 (Meeting of November 1, 1999) SUBJECT: Consider a Name for the Park in Specific Plan 92 -1 (Carlsberg) DISCUSSION On September 29, the Commission was asked to consider a name for the park under construction in Specific Plan 92 -1 (Carlsberg). The Commission recommended that this item be brought back to its November meeting to allow members additional time to consider potential names. The City has a Park Naming Policy (see Attachment A) which was last approved by the City Council in 1994. In summary, the policy states that the Parks and Recreation Commission will consider park names and forward a recommendation to the City Council. Names may be selected that identify the geographic location of the new park, or, when possible, the street on which the park is located. In special circumstances, the park may be named to recognize a national or historical event. Names proposed by the Commission will be considered by the City Council. The approved name will be adopted in the form of a Council resolution. At its September 29 meeting, the Commission requested that staff identify potential names in Spanish and Italian (the residential development planned for the Carlsberg Specific Plan is called Serenata, which is Italian for Serenade). The attached list (Attachment B) contains possible park names for the Commission's consideration. Additionally, the September 29 Agenda Report included three possible names: Carlsberg Park, Mesa Verde Park, Science Park. STAFF RECOb24ENDATION Staff recommends that the Commission select a name for the park in Specific Plan 92 -1 and forward its recommendation to the City Council for consideration. attachment Attachment A City Park Naming Policy (Adopted on August 10, 1994) 1. The City Council will direct the Parks and Recreation Commission to make recommendations on names for all new park projects during or before park construction. 2. City parks may be named in a manner which identifies the geographic location of each park. Whenever possible the name of a street, or the street upon which the park is located, may be part of the park name. In special circumstances, park names could be designated to recognize a national or historical event. 3. The City Council will consider the Parks and Recreation Commission's recommendations and will adopt the chosen park name by resolution. Attachment B Name 1. Valle del Sol 2. Villa Serena 3.

Lindley, Director of Community Services DATE: October 26, 1999 (Meeting of November 1, 1999) SUBJECT: Consider Playground Equipment Design for Peach Hill Park BACKGROUND At its September 29 Special Meeting, the Commission selected a sub - committee, tasked with developing a recommendation for playground replacement equipment for Peach Hill and Campus Canyon parks. The sub - committee is comprised of Chair Dubreuil and Commissioner Catrambone. This Agenda Report serves as the sub - committee's recommendation regarding Peach Hill Park. The adopted FY 1999/2000 Budget includes $50,000 to replace the large wooden playground equipment at Peach Hill Park. There are no plans to replace the surface material (sand), so the total budget will be allotted to the purchase and installation of play equipment. The subcommittee met twice. The first meeting was held at Rancho Simi Community Park in Simi Valley. The purpose of that meeting was to look at the play equipment manufactured by Miracle. Based on positive comments from the subcommittee members, a Miracle representative prepared a draft design, which was reviewed by the subcommittee at its second meeting. The design provided with this Agenda Report (Attachment A) is a result of the subcommittee's input. The subcommittee felt that the new equipment should offer more challenging play opportunities and features not found at the other parks. The proposed design consists of equipment with a main "center stage" (base height - 616 ") from which kids can access a number of Peach Hill Playground Equipment page 2 challenging slides and climbing apparatus, and a secondary "center stage" (base height - 31), with less challenging features. Note that the main stage has a slanted "climbing wall" (height - 616") feature that is not present at any of the City's existing park playgrounds (Attachment C). Additionally, while not shown on the plans, the proposed playground design includes a set of four swings (two bays with two swings each - Attachment D), to replace the old wooden set that is currently in place. The total estimated cost to purchase the equipment is $35,000. The estimated removal and installation cost for the project is $15,000. The City will need to bid the installation work; therefore, the cost may vary after bid proposals are received. The total estimated project cost, including purchase and install, is $50,000. The proposed playground design leaves little, if any, contingency for unseen project adjustments. The subcommittee expressed an interest in an independent tire swing, in addition to the proposed four -swing set. The estimated cost to purchase and install a single tire swing is approximately $2,300. Proceeding with this option would exceed the existing budget. An alternative to consider is to replace one of the proposed swing bays (two swings) with a tire swing. The subcommittee will meet again to discuss the design for the proposed playground equipment at Campus Canyon Park. A recommendation will again be forwarded to the full Commission. STAFF RECOHMNDATION Staff recommends that the Parks and Recreation Commission approve the Miracle playground equipment design (Attachment A).
