City of Moorpark
AGENDA REPORT
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Christine Adams, Director of Community Serviceill�`�
DATE: December 6, 1993 (Meeting of December 15, 1993)
SUBJECT: Consider New Name for West Meadows Park,
BACKGROUND
At the City Council meeting on November 3, 1993, the City Council
took action and formally approved new park names of Mountain
Meadows Park and Tierra Rejada Park, for North Meadows Park and
South Meadows Park, respectively, as recommended by the Parks and
Recreation Commission.
The Parks and Recreation Commission had also recommended that the
City Council consider the name "West Ranch Park" for West Meadows
Park, but this suggestion was rejected by the City Council.
At the November 3rd meeting, the City Council directed staff to
consider alternate names for the site currently named West Meadows
Park.
The newly adopted Park Naming Policy reads as follows: 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, or a Moorpark resident
who has made significant contributions to the City.
Using this as a guideline, staff is suggesting two alternate park
names for the City Council to select from. They are:
Timberidae Park (for the street. that is immediately in the
southwest corner of the park).
Country Trail Park (for Mountain Trail and Countrywood
streets, which merge near the park.)
RECOMMENDATION
Direct staff as deemed appropriate.
