It deserves careful consideration as the city seeks assistance to enhance this area. Slated for park purposes, this plot is approximately 30 acres in size. It is located be- tween Adams and Yorktown Avenues, west of Coldwater Drive and east of the Newland Shopping Center. About one and one half acres feature the historic Newland House (museum), Newland Barn (community meeting room), and visitor parking. This historic blufftop overlooks a water retention basin and a portion.of that land is an Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Area (ESHA) and will always remain available to indigenous flora and fauna. Discussions for enhancement have suggested that a neighborhood park be developed to serve the community. Other attractions may include, but not be limited to, a senior citizen multi- purpose center, a 3-par pitch and putt nine-hole golf course for daytime use only, and a small pro shop. There will be no driving range. Additional amenities are listed below for your perusal. Keep in mind that the area is linear which may limit many active uses. Only security lighting is planned for the park. Presently, the city is requesting your assistance in the development of a design concept for Bartlett Park. The actual construction of the proposed park is unfunded. At this time, we are concerned with hearing your recommendations for Bartlett Park. Please complete the survey and return to: Huntington Beach Community Services Department Bartlett Park Master Plan 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Surveys must be returned by: SURVEY 1. Are you interested in seeing the 30 acre Bartlett Park developed for community use with a neighborhood park, senior citizen multi-purpose center, and a 9 hole pitch and putt, day use only, golf course?* Yes: No: Comments: 2.

Survey results will be reviewed by the Community Services Commission at a future noticed public input meeting.

All households within 1,000 feet of the Bartlett Park site will be sent a survey and automatically notified of the public input meeting.
