Director of Community Development R. DENNIS DELZEIT City Engineer JOHN V. GILLESPIE Chief of Police RICHARD T. HARE City Treasurer Philip E. Newhouse, Director of Community Services t� 7/31/90 SUBJECT: Consider Adding Fourth Tennis Court, Lighting Four Tennis Courts and Eliminating Basketball Court at South Meadows Park Development plans approved for South Meadows Park include a full - length basketball court. and three regulation tennis courts with provisions to add i future fourth tennis court. The above - mentioned facilities also have been planned for future lighting. On July 23, 1990, the Parks and Recreation Commission unanimously recommended consideration be given to adding a fourth tennis court, lighting a "I four courts and eliminating the basketball court. The Commissions recommendati.or is based upon two primary points of consideration: 1. Economics - It is more cost: effective to construct the fourth tennis court during construction of the park than adding it at a later time. The cost of adding the fourth tennis court in addition to the concrete slab will _nclude; moving the existing perimeter chain link fence and adding additional fencing, modifying existin:: court lighting and adding 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864 The Honorable City Council Page 2 7/31/90 additional lighting, net and net posts, playing surface color coated and striped, and possible regrading of the area where the court will '>e constructed. 2. Community Use - Four courts will allow greater opportunities for recreational play by the community, more flexibility for tournament play and opportunity to provide more revenue producing classes to offset the maintenance and upkeep of t -he tennis courts. Additionally, the tennis courts will offer an expanded dimension of non - duplicated city recreational opportunities to the residents of Moorpark which currently do not exist. Basketball courts are already in nearby North Meadows and Glenwood Parks. The tennis courts to be constructed at South Meadows Park are located in the east end of the park near the intersection of Tierra Rejada Road and Mountain Meadow Drive. The court area is bound by Tierra Rejada Road to the north, Mountain Meadow Drive to the east, continuance of the park to the west and residential homes to the south. In designing this park, considerable thought was given to the placement of the tennis courts The closest tennis court to the homes south of the park, of the four to be built, will be located approximately fifty (50) feet north of the south property line of the park which is defined by a 6 -foot high block wall. The furthest court to be built is approximately 80 feet from the south property line. Should the tennis courts oe lighted, the nearest light to the south property line of the park is 63 feet. When designing the tennis facili --ies, the developer provided two distinct features to mitigate the tennis court lighting should the courts be lighted: 1. Selection of light fixture:; Each of the four tennis courts are proposed to be lighted with a six - fixture lighting system. The fixture mounting height will be 22 feet. The fixtures selected for installation are called a shadow -box fixture. This is a box type fixture with the opening on the bottom which means the light will oe directed downward onto the court surface not into t:he sky. Additionally, the shadow -box fixtures can be fitted with a cutoff shield. The cutoff shield concentrates the light onto the The Honorable City Council Page 3 7/31/90 playing surface and reduces the spillage of light into the atmosphere. Cutoff shields can be purchased to allow zero back light spillage (see enclosed diagram). 2. Landscape buffer: An additional consideration provided by the developer to mitigate light spillage from the tennis courts into the rear yards of the homes south of the park was the provision of an extensive landscape buffer approximately 10 feet in width which pralle.ls the south property line. The landscape buffer consists of large dense trees and shrubs. The trees at maturity will be approximately 60 feet in height with a spread of 45 feet. If necessary, additional trees could be planted south and adjacent to the tennis courts to provide additional buffering. Additionally, tennis wind screen; can be added to help reduce light spillage from the courts. If this was implemented, the court fence line post size woi,id need to be increased to support this addition. Urban West Communities has been approached and appraised the Commission's recommendation to Council. Mr. Tom Zanic of Urban West Communities indicated he would only be interested in adding the fourth court if i1 were at no additional costs to UWC and would not require design changes which would alter or delay development of the pa,k. Mr Zanic anticipates the cost of adding the fourth tennis court (excluding lighting) to be between $20,000 and $2`;,000 and is in addition to deletion of the basketball court Should the Commission proposal t)e approved, funding to light the tennis courts would be provided from the Neighborhood Park portion of the Mountain Meadows Park Improvement Funds. In discussions with Urban West Communities, costs to light the four courts would be approximately $17,800. Should the Council not approve the Commission's recommendation to add the fourth tennis court but wish to consider lighting the three approved tennis courts, the costs would be approximately $12,500. Funding for the three sets of lights could be taken from the South Meadows Park non - designated funds ($15,000) in this zone Current projects approved by Council for development in the Mountain Meadows zone total $44,500. Council also included $22,500 in non - designated funds ($15,000 at South Meadows Park and $7,500 at North Meadows Park) for a total expenditure of $67,000, as The Honorable City Council Page 4 7/31/90 North Meadows Park: Restroom $40,000 Security Lighting $ 4,500 Misc. Improvements $__,_', 500 $52.000 South Meadows Park: Misc. Improvements $15,000 ZONE TOTAL: $.67,000 Staff estimates there will be approximately $63,483 available for projects in this zone in FY 1990/91. (This does not include interest earned for FY 1990/91.) If the tennis court lighting was approved for three courts, it could be funded from the non - designated funds in this zone, which would leave a zone fund balance deficit of 111,017 before interest earned is applied to this zone.. Staff contacted Southern California Edison to obtain a per hour cost to operate the lights should the courts be lit. (Staff will be checking with other cities to see what their per hour court lighting costs ar( ) COURT LIGHTING Six (6) - 1000 watt metal halide lights per court (60 kw) 60 kw /hr x .11246 cents per ho, _ $6.7476 ($6.75) per hr cost. Assuming the lights would operate, four hours daily, cost per week would be: 7 x 4 x $6.75 = $189.00 with an annualized cost of $9828.00, x three courts quals $29,484.00. Should the Council desire tc ecover the lighting costs, options available are: A. Coin operated lights. Persons using the lights would pay a set amount per half or full hour for the lights. A coin box would be installed at each court and you would deposit money into a coin box to energize the lights B. Include the lighting costs in the Parks Assessment Districts annual budget: and spread the costs on a city wide basis. Additionally, tennis class fees could be adjusted to offset a portion of the lighting costs as well as revenue earned from tournaments applied to the lighting costs.
