Section 3.7 of the Master Plan, Facility Needs Analysis, identifies a list of park facilities that were requested by the community and that reflect the current trends in park and recreation facility development established by the National Recreation and Parks Association (NRPA). According to Table 3.1 of the Master Plan, a splash/water play pool (splash pad), is a facility that is desirable and should be available to the residents of Moorpark. With a current population size of 35,000 residents, the City of Moorpark would require two splash pads within the City park system. In addition, on May 15, 2013, the City Council approved the City of Moorpark Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and Objectives for FY 2013/14. Under Departmental Goals and Objectives, Section VI, Reinforce and enhance Moorpark's attractive community character and safeguard its desirable resources, the City Council approved Item 7, Select location, design, and construct a water spray attraction at one or more selected City Parks. On August 26, 2013, staff provided the Parks and Recreation Commission information pertaining to the City's desire to install a splash pad at one or more City parks, as well as imagery relating to this type of amenity. In an effort to move this project forward, staff established a list of criteria that should be considered when evaluating possible locations for a future splash pad, such as visibility, parking, environmental exposure, existing facilities, etc., and the Parks and Recreation Commission determined that Arroyo Vista Community Park (AVCP), Tierra Rejada Park, Peach Hill Park, College View Park, and the downtown area on High Street are the locations that should be considered for this type of amenity. 1 Parks and Recreation Commission March 3, 2014 Page 2 On September 28, 2013, the Parks and Recreation Commission took a tour of the five locations and on November 4, 2013, the Parks and Recreation Commission determined that Arroyo Vista Community Park would be the preferred location for a splash pad. The Commission also agreed that College View Park would be a suitable location, but could not recommend this location until a determination has been made in regards to the development of the fire station proposed for the north side of the park. In addition, the Commission felt that a splash pad would be appropriate on High Street if this use could be incorporated into the overall design and circulation concept for downtown. DISCUSSION During the November 4, 2013, Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting, the Commission requested additional information on the different types of water spray features and confirmation on the type of water feature being considered. Due to the differences in initial installation and infrastructure costs, overall maintenance and staffing costs, and certain liabilities, staff feels that a 'splash pad', as opposed to a `water park', is the type of feature being considered at this time. The two water spray features differ as follows: According to Wikipedia, "A splash pad is a recreation area, often in a public park, for water play that has little or no standing water. This is said to eliminate the need for lifeguards or other supervision ... Typically there are ground nozzles that spray water upwards out of the splash pad's raindeck. There may also be other water features such as a rainbow (semicircular pipe shower), a mushroom shower, or a tree shower. As well, some splash pads feature movable nozzles similar to those found on fire trucks to allow users to spray others..." According to Wikipedia, "A water park is an amusement park that features water play areas, such as water slides, splash pads, spraygrounds (water playgrounds), lazy rivers, or other recreational bathing, swimming, and barefooting environments. Water parks in more current states of development may also be equipped with some type of artificial surfing or bodyboarding environment such as a wave pool or FlowRider." The major difference between the two types of water spray features, ultimately resulting in an increase in costs and liability, is in regards to the water level of the water feature. Splash pads generally do not have standing water, thus do not require staff supervision. Water parks are generally larger water features, with water depth commonly exceeding 12" and require higher infrastructure costs, staffing and supervision per current Health and Safety Code requirements. On November 4, 2013, staff presented to the Commission three options for the location of the future splash pad. However, the Commission requested additional information on the future use(s) of the existing multi-use court prior to making a recommendation, as the location of the multi-use court is integral to the overall use of the area surrounding 2 Parks and Recreation Commission March 3, 2014 Page 3 AVRC and circulation through the site. Since then, staff has also had an opportunity to finalize the plans for the recreational trail system for AVCP and has revised the exhibits that were presented previously to the Commission in order to provide an accurate representation of AVCP as it currently exists, as well as future projects that impact the general areas being considered. In addition, staff has provided two additional options for the Commission to consider. One consists of the area between the existing gazebo and tot lot and the other is north/west of AVRC as suggested by the Commission. Staff has contact several manufacturers that specialize in the construction of splash pads and has determined that on average, most mid-size splash pads are located within an area approximately 50' x 75', not including additional areas for seating or a walking path. The industry standard is one park user for every twenty-five square feet. Based on this information, the splash pad can accommodate up to approximately 140 users at any given time. Staff has also discovered that the structure that houses the pumps and filtration equipment vary in size, but generally consist of a walled structure approximately 15' x 20'. This size will generally accommodate three pumps with accessory equipment, such as filters and piping. Staff has presented the options shown in Attachments 1 through 5 utilizing these sizes as a general guide for discussion purposes. It should also be noted, that along with the splash pad, a certain amount of space needs to be provided for accompanying structures and amenities, such as a shade structure, picnic tables, shade trees and walkways. Staff has included a general layout of these amenities for each location to provide the Commission with a generalized concept for each option. The actual size, design and a detailed cost estimate will be presented at a future date. Option A (Attachment 1): The splash pad is located south of the multi-use court and east of the tennis courts. Option B (Attachment 2): The splash pad is located where the future pool site is located, north of the multi-use court. Option C (Attachment 3): The splash pad is located where the multi-use court is currently located. Option D (Attachment 4): The splash pad is centrally located between the gazebo and tot lot. Option E (Attachment 5): The splash pad is located north of AVRC. In order to visualize the future layout of AVCP and long term uses of the park, staff has identified the existing and proposed facilities, particularly as they relate to the areas adjacent to the recreation center. The future facilities are shown on Attachments 1 through 5 and consist of an aquatic center, the expansion of the AVRC gym and a recreational trail system. These future facilities are identified below with the related objectives approved by the City Council for FY 2013/14. 3 Parks and Recreation Commission March 3, 2014 Page 4 VI.B.1. Consider options for funding construction and maintenance of a community aquatic facility. The original master plan for AVCP included an aquatic facility located south/east of the AVRC gym. The approximate location of the facility is where the existing tennis courts are currently located. However, in 2002, the City Council approved a conceptual plan, prepared by Martinez Amador Architects, Inc., for the aquatic facility. The approved facility location encompasses the majority of the area on the east side of AVRC, between the recreation center and parking lot B. Due to budgetary constraints, primarily related to long term maintenance costs, the project was postponed until a partnership could been established with a local interest group that would commit to the long term maintenance of the facility. The aquatic facility included a competition lap pool, a small wading pool for young children, and an auxiliary restroom/concession building. VI.C.1. Expand Arroyo Vista Community Park gym. The plans and specifications for the gym expansion project were completed in 2007. The project generally consists of the expansion of the gym area to include a full basketball court and bleachers, and encompasses the area east of the existing gym. VII.A.20. Develop a conceptual plan and cost estimates for a formal walking path around the perimeter of Arroyo Vista Community Park. VII.A.26. Develop conceptual design plan and cost estimates for widening the access road within Arroyo Vista Community Park (AVCP) to accommodate bike lanes/paths and sidewalks. The City recently had plans and specifications prepared for a bicycle trail extension from the pedestrian bridge on the east end of the park, to the connection of the existing bicycle path north of AVRC along the access road, as well as a one mile recreation trail that extends around the perimeter of AVCP. The plans and specifications were approved by City Council on February 5, 2014. Staff has prepared a brief analysis of each option for the location of a future splash pad: Option A: Depending on the future uses of the multi-use court, the splash pad will be somewhat obscured from view, as seen from the northern portions of the park, due to the fencing material utilized for roller hockey or other activities that warrant a fully fenced court. Staff is concerned that if basketball is recommended by the Commission as an alternative use of the multi-use courts, this use may not be compatible, as basketball generally caters to a much older age group than a splash pad. Due to the fact that splash pads are relatively safe and do not require staff supervision, staff anticipates that a very young age group will utilize the splash pad on a regular basis. This location is also somewhat far from the restrooms located within AVRC. However, the location is directly adjacent to an existing tot lot and these two compatible uses may 4 Parks and Recreation Commission March 3, 2014 Page 5 be attractive to young children. Option B: Staff feels that this splash pad location will conflict with recreation programing, as the splash pad is directly adjacent to AVRC and the open turf areas that are frequently used for camp programs. The location may create a conflict with users of the splash pad and other park patrons that travel to and from the recreation center, as the splash pad is somewhat centered within the overall circulation system around AVRC. This area was also previously approved by the City Council for an aquatic center. However, there is ample parking and restrooms within close proximity, and the splash pad could be moved away from the multi-use court in an effort to separate non- compatible uses. Fencing adjacent to the parking lot should be considered to maintain an inward use of the facility. Option C: As discussed during the November 4, 2013, Parks and Recreation Commission meeting, staff recommended Option C, as it is staffs opinion that the addition of a splash pad will over utilize the general area to the east of AVRC, without additional changes to the adjacent areas, such as the elimination of the multi-use court. As mentioned previously, the future aquatic center, gym expansion and recreational trail system are all desirable and are future objectives approved by the City Council. In addition, the turf areas directly adjacent to the north and east of AVRC are utilized by many programs administered by the Recreation Department, such as summer camp activities, and staff feels that it is necessary to preserve these open areas for many of the activities that are scheduled throughout the year. This option is within close proximity to the parking lot, restrooms, and compatible uses such as the existing pavilion, tot lot and future aquatic center. Option D: It is staffs opinion that this location would be an appropriate location for the future splash pad. This option was not considered during the November 4, 2013, Commission meeting. The general area is relatively small considering the amount of space required for the splash pad, and the visual impact as seen from the parking lot and access road is somewhat obscured due the electrical equipment and pavilion north of this location. However, the existing and future walkways could be moved to accommodate this use, and this location is visible as seen from interior park locations. This location is directly adjacent to compatible uses, such as the existing playground and pavilion, and there is ample parking within close proximity. The restrooms are not necessarily close, but considering the advantages, staff feels that this location would be acceptable due to the fact that it is centrally located between AVRC and the softball fields, and would not conflict with current or future amenities adjacent to AVRC. Option E: During the November 4, 2013, Commission meeting, this area was considered by the Commission as a possible location for the splash pad. Staff feels that this area would conflict with recreational programs, as this turf area is utilized on a regular basis by camp programs. Staff also feels that this location would impact available parking within lot A, which is needed for patrons visiting the recreation center. However, this location is within close proximity to the restrooms and does not conflict 5 Parks and Recreation Commission March 3, 2014 Page 6 with futures uses planned for AVCP. It is also visible, there is ample room for the amenity and it would provide a positive visual impact for patrons visiting AVCP. FISCAL IMPACT As mentioned during the November 4, 2013, Parks Recreation and Commission meeting, the costs of splash pads vary depending on the overall size of the structure, the number of spray features incorporated into the overall design, and infrastructure costs, such as water service, drainage, the slip resistant surface material, and the size of the concrete foundation. Staff has obtained a sampling of several designs from various manufacturers for comparison purposes. According to the manufacturers, based on the designs shown in Attachments 6, 7 and 8, a budget of approximately $250,000 would provide the City with an opportunity to design and install a mid-size splash pad. However, this cost does not necessarily consider the type of water system. Staff recommends a recirculating water system, where the water source is filtered and treated in underground storage tanks, and recycled back through the system for use in the facility. However, the cost of this system is approximately $100,000 to $150,000 additional, depending on the size of the splash pad. Another option would be a drain to the sanitary sewer system, which would reduce the initial installation costs considerably, but would increase overall costs due to the high costs of water. A typical spray park utilizes approximately 500 gallons per minute (gpm).. For comparison purposes, running the park eight hours a day during three months in the summer, and an average of three hours a day the remainder of the year, would cost approximately $160,000/year at current water rates. This option is also not sustainable, and given the current drought conditions and the long term effects on our natural resources, staff does not recommend this option. However, there may be an opportunity to utilize the well water at AVCP and install a below ground infiltration system. This option will most likely not . reduce initial installation costs, as the costs of filtration equipment generally associated with recirculating systems will roughly equal the costs of additional below grade infiltration equipment. However, the long term maintenance costs will ultimately be reduced, as water costs at AVCP are minimal due to the available well water. The site will need to meet certain criteria for percolation purposes and the water source will need to be evaluated for this type of use. Staff recommends that the Parks and Recreation Commission make a recommendation to the City Council to approve the splash pad location identified in Option D. Staff will prepare a detailed cost estimate and a series of design options based on the size(s) of the spray park samples shown in Attachments 6, 7, and 8, and a preliminary budget of $250,000, and will present these options to the Parks and Recreation Commission at a later date. As mentioned previously, staff recommends deferring any decisions relevant to College View Park until a final determination has been made on the design and location of the fire station proposed by VCFD. 6 Parks and Recreation Commission March 3, 2014 Page 7 STAFF RECOMMENDATION 1.

Analyze alternatives to better utilize the roller hockey court at Arrovo Vista Community Park as a multi-purpose court and consider options as part of Capital Improvement Program adoption. The multi-use court at Arroyo Vista Community Park (AVCP) has not been regularly used for league sports since February 2006. Since that time, the court has been sporadically rented for various. events, but it remains one of the more underutilized features of AVCP, having only been rented 61 days in the last 8 years, an average of 7 days per year. The court is also in need of repairs and the bleachers had to be removed because they did not meet current building code. Staff has put together four different options for the Parks and Recreation Commission to consider to better utilize this park facility. DISCUSSION Option A— As is This option would involve leaving the multi-use court as-is and refurbishing the court for roller hockey use. At a minimum, the project scope would include resurfacing the court, rebuilding the hockey enclosure, and repairing the chainlink fencing. Undertaking a full refurbishment, which would make the court usable into the evening and provide a place for spectators to watch, would require the addition of light standards and associated coin operation machine, and bleachers. The costs for this work are outlined on the next page: 16 Parks and Recreation Commission March 3, 2014 Page 2 Chainlink Repair $1,400 Rebuild Hockey Enclosure $4,700 Resurface Court $11,500, Sub-total Minimum Scope $17,600 Light Standards (8) $36,000 Coin Operator $2,500 Bleachers $14,000 Sub-total Add'I Scope $52,500 TOTAL PPROJECT COST $70,100 Option B— Combination Basketball Court/Roller Hockey This option involves a complete repurposing of the multi-use court to allow for both roller hockey, basketball, and other court uses such as futsal or pickleball. The layout of the court would include three National Basketball Association (NBA) regulation size courts, with the roller hockey and other sporting games overlayed to accommodate additional uses. The minimum project scope to make the court usable for both uses requires basketball hoops that cantilever minimum 6' over the existing fence, padding, rebuilding the hockey enclosure, repairing and retrofitting the chainlink fence, adding four chainlink gates, and repairing and striping the court surface. As with option A, undertaking the full refurbishment, which would make the court usable in the evening and provide a place for spectators to watch, requires the addition of lighting standards and associated coin operation machines, and bleachers. Attachment 2 details the proposed layout. The costs for this work are outlined below: Basketball Hoops, 6' Ext (6) $11,800 Rebuild Hockey Enclosure $4,700 Basketball Padding $2,500 Chainlink Repair/Retrofit $2,800 Chainlink Gates (4) $1,400 Court Surfacing/Striping $11,500 Sub-total Minimum Scope $34,700 Light Standards (8) $36,000 Coin Operator $2,500 Bleachers $14,000 Sub-total Add! Scope $52,500 TOTAL PROJECT COST $87,200 Option C — Basketball Only This option involves setting the multi-use court up for basketball only. The layout would include three high school or NBA regulation size courts. The minimum project scope for 17 Parks and Recreation Commission March 3, 2014 Page 3 this operation includes demolition of the existing fence/enclosure, the addition of six standard basketball hoops, and resurfacing and striping of the court. As with the other options, undertaking the full refurbishment would require the addition of light standards and associated coin operation machines. Attachment 3 details the proposed layout. The costs for this work are outlined below: Demo fence/enclosure $4,500 Standard Basketball Hoops (6) $9,000 Court resurfacing/striping $11,500 Sub-total Minimum Scope $25,000 Light Standards (8) $36,000 Coin Operator $2,500 Sub-total Add'I Scope $38,500 TOTAL PROJECT COST $63,500 Option D — Demolish Multi-use Court This option involves removing the multi-use court entirely in order to make way for a better use of the area, such as a splash pad. The costs for this work are outlined below: Demo fence/enclosure $4,500 Demolish court $18,000 TOTAL PROJECT COST $22,500 As mentioned previously, the multi-use court is currently underutilized. It is also in need of repair in order to keep the court open for public use. It is staff's opinion that Option B would make the best use of the court, but does not feel that a full restoration is warranted at this time. Staff recommends making the repairs to the chainlink fencing and court surfacing and installing two basketball courts at this time. The wood enclosure originally installed for roller hockey is in need of repair and staff recommends removing the paneling until a partnership is formed with a local interest group or roller hockey league. The same would be true of the lighting and bleachers, as these would primarily be utilized for organized league play associated with roller hockey. The court can be lined to accommodate other uses, such as volleyball, pickle ball and futsal, and staff can budget in future years to install these amenities as needed based on current trends in recreation. It should be noted that the Parks and Recreation Master Plan (Master Plan) states that the City of Moorpark already has a surplus of basketball courts. There are currently twelve basketball courts at various locations, which is five more basketball courts than what is required, based on the current population of approximately 35,000 residents. In addition, there has been no interest from residents in a roller hockey league since the last league terminated their use agreement in 2006. Lack of interest from the community 18 Parks and Recreation Commission March 3, 2014 Page 4 does not support the multi-use courts continued use as a roller hockey rink at this time. FISCAL IMPACT Staff recommends that the Parks and Recreation Commission make a recommendation to the City Council to approve Option B, and include a budget of $24,600 the repair of the court surfacing, fencing and the installation of two basketball courts. Basketball Hoops, 6' Ext (4) $7,800 Basketball Padding $2,500 Chainlink Repair/Retrofit $2,800 Court Surfacing/Striping $11,500 Sub-total Minimum Scope $24,600 STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve staffs recommendation of Option B and recommend a budget of $24,600 to the City Council to repair the multi-use court and install two basketball courts.

Full-time staff costs have been estimated based on actual reported program hours, plus a percentage administrative hours (such as supervising part-time staff who work in multiple program areas, delivering mail to City Hall, ordering supplies used in multiple program areas, etc.) Work hours spent on non-recreation related tasks, breaks, and leave hours are not calculated into full-time staff costs. The process of calculating full- time staff and overhead costs is refined each year, to provide the most accurate cost- estimates possible. EVENTS 3rd of July Fireworks Extravaganza The 3rd of July Fireworks Extravaganza continues to be Moorpark's signature event. The event took place on Wednesday, July 3 beginning at 4:00 p.m. at Arroyo Vista Community Park. The admission fee was raised by $1.00 this year, to $5.00 per person. Children under 5 and event staff were admitted free of charge. Live entertainment was expanded to include an additional stage with a total of four bands playing this year to celebrate the City of Moorpark's 30t anniversary. Performances included the Daddy O's at 4:30 p.m., Teardrop Garage at 5:00 p.m., Ray and the Rhythm Beat Band at 7:00 p.m., and Full Spectrum at 7:30 p.m. The event also featured food booths, games and attractions, and the presentation of the American flag. Event attendance was slightly lower than last year, with approximately 11,300 people at Arroyo Vista Park. It is estimated that several thousand more viewed the display from 26 neighboring parks and shopping centers. Overall, the event ran smoothly. No incidents were reported this year. The fireworks display was provided by Zambelli Fireworks again this year. The display ran smoothly. Parking and traffic egress plans which were instituted several years ago continue to be successful. Direct costs for the event were up from 2012 due to the increased size of the firework show and increased performances for the City's 30 anniversary. Revenue increased significantly, due to the $1.00 increase in the admission fee. It should be noted that costs for management staff who worked the day of the event were not included in cost calculations.

CAMP MOORPARK Summer Camp was held June 13 through August 20 at the Arroyo Vista Recreation Center. Camp Moorpark was offered ages 4 years 9 months to 11, and included sports, games, arts and crafts, special guests, theme events, parties, trips, and movies. Adventure Camp, for ages 10 to 14, included trips to theme parks, beaches, local hang- outs, movies, malls, and museums. Changes were made to Camp Moorpark and Mini Camp this year. As the Mini Camp program has been run essentially as the youngest Camp Moorpark age group, Mini Camp was incorporated back into Camp Moorpark. 4 29 Additionally, on-site care was added for older Camp Moorpark participants (previously, campers age 7 and up had no on-site option on trip days.) The camp season was much shorter this year; 46 days compared to 60 last year. Total enrollments decreased this year, due to a shorter camp season. However, average daily attendance increased. The shorter camp season also resulted in lower part-time staff costs, and lower direct costs (field trips, bus costs, arts and craft supplies, etc.), as well as lower revenue. Full-time staff costs increased, due primarily to additional time spent by the Recreation Superintendent training the new Recreation Supervisor on the program, as well as handling issues related to the hours restrictions from the Affordable Care Act. In addition to the budget summary of the program as a whole, an individual financial analysis of each camp program is included in this report. Direct costs are reflected in the program for which the expenditure was made, and part-time staff costs are accounted for based on the program the staff were primarily assigned to. Overhead and full-time staff costs were allocated based on average daily attendance.

SUMMER CLASSES Summer classes began in June and concluded in August. There was a reduction in class offerings made in an effort to decrease the cancellation rate, which was successful. Enrollments decreased significantly this year, and accordingly revenue also decreased. Due to the decline in enrollment and revenue, classes were not able to meet the minimum cost recovery requirement this season. Staff will analyze class offerings, increase marketing efforts, and analyze other agency offerings to ensure classes for all interests and ages are offered, and subsequently increase participation and revenue. 6 31 Summer Classes 2013 2012 2011 Classes Run 79 88 80 Enrollments 518 663 758 Direct Costs $30,292 $39,762 $46,304 F/T Staff $20,503 $16,231 $18,885 Overhead Costs $4,711 $4,523 $4,852 Gross Profit/ Loss $9,822 $17,930 $21,918 Net Profit/ Loss Per Partici•ant =EMI $4.26 $2.39 Class demographic summary: Ages Served Preschool Youth Tween Teen Adult (under 5) (5-10) (11-13) (14-17) (18+) Enrollments 84 227 39 8 160 Cost Recovery summary (Category: Recreation Classes and Specialty Camps) Recovered Minimum Target Percent Direct Costs Recovered: 100% 100% 100% Percent Division Indirect Costs Recovered 39% 75% 100% Minimum Recovery Met: No Target Recovery Met: No SUMMER ADULT SPORTS LEAGUES All participants in adult sports leagues are at least 18 years of age.

Both divisions were included in play-offs, and play-off games were held on both nights at the end of the league season. This league continues to fail to meet minimum cost recovery. Staff continues to work on increasing revenue and reducing costs to meet the requirement. Some of the cost saving measures that will be implemented beginning in Winter 2014 include reducing awards and eliminatin• the head official contractor •a ment.

Participant figures below do not include use by youth sports organizations prior to July 1, 2012. Also not included in participation is use by the public without permits, or use by City-run programs included elsewhere in this report. Field costs for rentals (but not use by youth sports organizations) were included in the 2011 calculations. Beginning with 2012, field use costs for both rentals and youth sports organizations (who now pay hourly fees) have been included. It should be noted that costs for rentable facilities including picnic pavilions and tennis courts are not yet included in cost calculations. 10 35 Youth sports organizations operating under agreements in the summer (June, July, and August) included Moorpark Girls Softball (June only), Moorpark Little League (June only), AYSO (August only) and Packer Football (July and August only). Beginning July 1, 2012, changes were made to youth sports agreements. Under the new agreements, youth sports organizations pay an hourly fee for field use (previously, the groups paid only $1.00 per year.) The fee charged is well below the City's cost to maintain the fields. Youth sports organizations began paying hourly fees for their fall 2012 leagues, some of which began in August. Both gross and net revenue increased significantly this year, due in part to increased rental activity and in part to fees paid by youth sports organizations.

This Independence Day celebration features entertainment, vendors, games and attractions, and an aerial fireworks display. DISCUSSION The 2013 Fireworks Extravaganza was held on Wednesday, July 3, from 4:00 to approximately 10:00 p.m. at the Arroyo Vista Community Park. Event features included live entertainment, games and attractions, food vendors, and the aerial fireworks display. Admission fees were increased by $1.00 this year, from $4.00 per person to $5.00 per person. Children 4 and under were admitted free of charge. Entertainers, vendors, staff members, and some sponsors were also admitted free of charge.

Announcements and sponsor recognitions were also made during the intermission. In addition to the above described activities at the stages, the event featured special attractions, games, and vendors. A small fee was charged to the public by the vendors providing the special attractions. Attractions included bounce tents and other inflatable attractions, face painting, a climbing wall, laser tag, paint ball game, non-motorized rides, and carnival games. Attraction vendors included Jolly Jumps and Kids Jumping for Joy. Recreation staff led a variety of picnic games near the attraction area. These games were free of charge, and included gunny sack races, hula-hoop contests, tug-o- war, relay races, and more. A variety of patriotic novelty items were awarded to participants. The number of food vendors decreased this year, with eighteen food booths this year compared to twenty-seven last year. Food vendors were located at three food courts, with six vendors in courts #1, six in court #2, and six in court #3. Food courts were located near the recreation center, the ball field snack bar, and the football field. Items sold included tri-tip, seafood, pizza, funnel cake, kettle corn, fries, shave ice, and many other items. Other vendors included Band Boosters selling items such as glow necklaces, inflatable items, and patriotic knick-knacks. The American Legion distributed hundreds small flags to the public free of charge. The Moorpark Explorers post also sponsored a booth. The Moorpark Explorers Post worked with the Sheriffs Department on parking and traffic control. A City staff person was also assigned to parking to assist with communications and oversight. The north side of the access road was striped by Public Works to maximize the number of parking spaces available in the park. This continues to be effective. Permit parking for vendors and staff was again located in lot C. VIP and disabled parking was located in lots#A and B. Police services were provided by the Ventura County Sheriffs Department, and a fire inspector was on site for the day. Volunteers from ARES provided radio communications. This assistance continues to be a valuable asset to the smooth running of the event. This year, American Medical Response was contracted to provide medical standby at the event. No major incidents were reported this year. The primary issue with the event continues to be the large amount of pedestrian and • vehicle traffic exiting the park at the end of the event. The traffic egress plan, which has been in place for the past several years, was utilized again this year. Barricades were aligned along the center of the road to delineate between pedestrian and vehicle traffic. The sidewalk on the south side of the access road and the entire inbound traffic lane were reserved for pedestrian traffic, with vehicles limited to the outbound lane. Pedestrian crosswalks were established at key points to allow pedestrians to cross the road without disturbing the traffic flow. The park was emptied of vehicle traffic in approximately an hour and a half. 38 Parks and Recreation Commission Page 3 Sponsorships increased this year. Last year the City received $2,100 in sponsorships. This year, sponsorships totaled $3,000. Sponsorships included $1,000 from Anderson Rubbish Disposal, $1,000 from Moorpark Country Club, $500 from Wayne J. Sand and Gravel, and $500 from City Ventures. Sponsors were recognized in print advertising and with announcements during the event. They also received complimentary event passes, and either a certificate or plaque. Direct costs for the event were up from 2012. Direct costs increased primarily due to the increases fireworks and live entertainment that was included this year for the City's 30th anniversary. Revenue increased significantly, due to the $1.00 increase in the admission fee. It should be noted that costs for management staff who worked the day of the event were not included in cost calculations. Estimated costs for competitive service employees from other divisions are included in the full-time staff cost calculations. A budget summary is included in this report. Attendance at the event was slightly lower than last year's attendance. This year, approximately 11,300 people attended the event. It is estimated that several thousand more watched the fireworks display from nearby parks, shopping centers, and homes. The Fireworks Extravaganza continues to be a successful event. Zambelli International was contracted for the aerial fireworks display this year. Staff again worked with the City's sound engineer to develop the musical accompaniment that was used during the display. The display ran smoothly this year and staff received many positive comments about it. The Simi Valley fireworks display had a tragic accident this year, in which 28 people were injured. The report by the State Fire Marshal indicates that the explosion was the result of a malfunction in one of the shells used by Bay Fireworks. . The investigation concluded that a five-inch diameter two-part shell went off inside a mortar tube, resulting in an explosion and several subsequent sympathetic explosions. The explosions sent debris from the fireworks, the racks holding them, and the mortar tubes in all directions from the launch site and into the crowd. The chances of this type of accident occurring at Moorpark's show are low, as there are several physical barriers between the launch site and spectators (including a restroom building, some trees, and two fences), and spectators are located only to the west of the launch site (the north, south, and east areas are in the restricted zone where spectators are not allowed.) Staff will work closely with the 2014 fireworks vendor to ensure Moorpark's show continues to be safe. A wrap-up meeting was held after the event. Event staff indicated the event was well managed and no major problems were encountered. Suggestions to refine the event were solicited from those at the meeting. Suggestions for future years include (in no particular order): • Continue to schedule at least two staff at the top gate from 10:00 a.m. until the gates open; possibly increase the number of staff scheduled during vendor check-in. 39 Parks and Recreation Commission Page 4 • Continue to find ways to reduce the number of people sneaking in to the event, especially through the restricted zone. • Continue to use police bike patrol, it is very effective. • Continue to schedule police officer at gate 30 minutes prior to opening gates, as this helped with traffic. • Continue to use ARES, they are very helpful. • Continue to schedule a police car for outlying parks. • Continue to improve coordination and communication between gate staff and admission staff just before and when gates open. • Continue to improve coordination and communication between admission staff and parking staff. • Close the high school parking lot gates. Keep traffic moving until gates open at 3:45 p.m. (do not allow early parking or waiting of vehicles.) • Make sure that the caution tape completely covers the dirt paths at the entrance by the high school. • Acquire new radios with better sound quality for City staff. • Work with Performance Nursery to improve security. • Provide ATM machines for the public to use during the event. • To improve parking, only let 5 cars down at a time; Put a ticket on the window of the 5th car to indicate who has paid rather than using a lot of radio traffic between admission staff to coordinate this. • Include in marketing materials that no outside BBQ are allowed in the park. • Add one police officer to the back entrance to monitor for security and safety. • Purchase more flexible delineators (barricades for bridge) • Inform the fire department and American Medical Response that the pedestrian bridge provides access to the park in case of an emergency. • Have a clean-up/tear down meeting prior to the day of the event. • Make sure all the trash cans are set out prior to the start of the event. • Modify the volunteer waiver form to make it clear ARES operators are covered by worker's compensation • Have ARES at the lights off areas during the countdown to assist with coordination of turning lights off and on. • Pick up all cones from the surrounding neighborhoods right after the event. • Get more speakers for the sound system to allow music and announcements to be heard throughout the park. 40 Parks and Recreation Commission Page 5 • Provide an ADA accessible attraction area. • Make sure all food vendors tape down their cords and cables.
