Discussion of Environmental Evaluation 9AR.T11 lb. Approximately 25,000 cubic yards are estimated to be graded over a 16 acre site. A grading plan will be required, along with a compaction -report. The area will primarily be developed into passive recreation space made and covered with landscaping. No significant adverse impacts to the soil area anticipated . AIR 2a. Temporary impacts to air quality will result from project grading activities. Air pollutants will be emitted by grading equipment and dust will be. generated daring grading and site preparation. Given the limited size of the park area, the air pollutants emitted by grading equipment are not expected to be significant. A diesel powered scraper is the most common equipment used for grading operations. Emissions rates for a grading scraper are as follows: r9llWr_c EMUSipil- aw (in grams per hour) Carbon monoxide 660 Nitrogen oxides 7.020 Hydrocarbons 284 Sulphur oxides 210 Particulates 184 Source;: AQMD handbook, April 1997 For this type of project, two pieces of heavy equipment are normally expected to operate at one time. based on this assumption, if both pieces of equipment ol-mated for eight hours per day, the following emissions would result; 23 pounds per day of carbor, monoxide, 99 pounds per day of nitrogen oxides, 10 pounds per day of hydrocarbons, 7.4 pounds per day of sulphur oxides, and approximately 6.5 pounds per day of particulates. These emissions are considered very minor. With 1 mitigation measures, no significant impacts are anticipated. RAM 3b. Absorption rates may increase slightly as a result of the additional plant life. The increased ruttoff from the proposed parking lot should counter balance the additional nb�,;••rbtlon in landscaped areas. Environmental Checklist (3075d) i No significant impacts are anticipated. g, It. The landscaping on the site will create: additional demands on the City's water supply. The existing developed park that surrounds this parcel get its water 1 from two wells within Huntington Central Park. Jim Jones, Park Mainte:natice Supervisor, tilt indicated that these two wells could supply the necessary water for this new development. The Green Acres + Project, making available tertiary treated sewerage for irrigation of landscaped areas may increase available water for the park. The Irrigation system installed in the park shall be capable of linking tip with the Green Acres System. With mitigation, no significant impacts are anticipated. PbA.rLUIFl= 4a,b. The site is currently barren with the excepticn of two mature trees. y The Parks, Trees and Landscape Division cuts the wild grass lied weeds, 1 primarily non-nature ruderl species, down p^riodically as part of Its maintenance program. The vegetation is greatly disturbed, with no y endangered plant specie.. at the site, No significant impacts are anticipated. C. The site is currently Covered with not:-native grass and weed species. The landscaping proposed for the site would be made up of species typically found in our Central Park area. As the landscaping for a } majority of the proposed project area will be consistent with existing i landscaping, no new specks will Le introduced. 1� With mitigation, no significant impacts are anticipated. Sa,b. Please tree discussion under EU 11_UEE, 4a,b. The proposed project area is extremely disturbed with a limited ruderat biotic community. No reduction in diversity or number of species of animals, including endangered species, is anticipated to take place. The use of native species should be encouraged at the site to provide benefits to native animal and plant species in the area. Using existing Central Park landscaping as a guide, no new non-native species should be, Introduced in this area. With mitigation, ne significant impacts are anticipated. t Environmental Checklist -8- (3071d) NATURALAF. MES 9. Please see discussion or WE1JU 3g and h. No significant impacts are anticipated. MEC=EC_UATlQN 13a. The traffic genera lion number for a passive recreation area in a neighborhood park is approximately 6 tripends per acre . Given the 16 acres to be developed, the number of trips generated per day should be Approximately 96. This is not coiisidered a significant number of trips and should not significantly impact the local circulation system. A parking lot is planned to be provided with the new development.

The project area formerly contained a large archaeological deposit, CA-Ora-142. The site: was recorded by 1-Iafner and McKinney in October of 1969 and was described as a large shell midden of great age. CA-Ora-I42 was completely destroyed in 1963 and 1964 by the Calirornia Department of Transportation. The material from the site was used in the construction of freeway off ramps. No excavation work was ever accomplished at the site. As the archaeological information available at the site has been completely destroyed, the grading required for park development can not do any additional harmto a cultural resource. Should any archaeological material be discovered during grading, grading should cease, the City Planning Department contacted, and an archaeologist consulted to determine the appropriate course of action. No significant impacts are anticipated. 1V. Determination (To be completed by the Lead Agency) On the basis of this initial evaluation; I Find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the .,aviransnent, and a NEGATIVE- DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case ..�, because the mitigation mrasures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project.

Development mould include open/passive area with trees, grass, walkways and picnic facilities in keeping with the 19B6 and 1988 surwty results. Parking and expanded rest rooms would also hive to be included since the existing facilities are already impacted to the point of not being able co har.1le the current service levels on busy days. 1 The City's landscape architectural firm has provided a preliminary cost estiry to of $1 .6 million for developing the sixteen acres.

RECO WNDATION Approve solicitation of proposals for the development of a golf facility on ' thirty to forty acres of undeveloped land in Huntington Central Park. ANALYSIS Staff is requesting direction from City Council to determine if a golf facility should be constructed on an undeveloped section of Huntington Central Park. On the west side of the park, there are approximately sixty acres available south of Huntington Lake and the F.questrian Center, between Golden (lest and Edwards Streets. This includes the former A.C. Clarion property and the undeveloped parkland currently used for equestrian trails. East of Golden West and south of Talbert, there are forty-five to fifty acres available north of the proposed mobile home relocation park and existing gun rat►ge. This acreage does not inciude the mushrowe farm ( twenty-five acres). There are also plans to construct a three par qol f course as part of Ocean View Mobile Home Estates. There are positive and negative aspects to developing a golf facility in the park. Considerations in fervor of a facility include: there is only one public course in Huntington Beach Meadowlark Golf Course); a large, manicured, green turf area would be aesthetically pleasing and enhance the overall view of the Park; it is staff's intention that the city would not ;have to pay for the development or artintenance of that portion of the park; and; a facility would be revenue-generating. The negative aspects to be evaluated are: a single recre,ation4l use would. monopolize a large portion of the park; if problems such a!; errant golf balls could not be mitigated in the desi ore Irocess, the city would receive public complaints; if the course is on the �q Md ola .9��p1ws.wa>.+r.t,�ap:atKli�.tn:s��hiila;r�, .. :r ..a,r �... :,•.C.t :ii.. .�..S.:�S:ti,Y�Jt*�sK1+s�w�.cc.a+rat�++Ma....aav�.�...�r.+«w� {S)— 1 REQUEST FOR CITY COUMCP" ICTION r001 14ARCH 6, 1989 HUNTINGTON CENTRAL. PARK GOLF FACILITY PAGE TWO west side of the park, a portion of the park currently used for equestrian trails would have to be utilized; the city only owns 193 of the 300 encyclopedia lots on the west side of tna park (estimated purchase price for the 107 lots is over $1 .6 million); part of the area on the east side of the park has county limitations requiring the city tc pay a The of any revenue to the county; and if the course is lighted, there could be a negative impact on any surrounding residential areas. On flay 13, 1987, the Community Services Com fission reviewed the possibility of a golf course in Huntington Central Park. At the time, the commission voted against having a concessionaire build and operate a golf course in the park even with the stipulation that the developed property revert to the city at the end of the lease period. Potential concessionaires have approac',ied the city with golf proposals. These ' proposals range from simply a golf driving range to an executive-size, eighteen hale golf course with clubhouse and restaurant. If City Council approves putting a golf facility in the park, staff will prepare a Request for Proposal and submit it to Council for review.

AECMNDATION Approve the, resolution and direct staff to apply for $S66,000 in funding under the Proposition 70 Per Capita Grant Program with the money designated for use in the development of Huntington Central Park, h!IALYSIS The California Park and Recreation Department has indicated that the city can receive $566,000 in funding from the Proposition 70 Per Capita Grant Program, The resolution along with a completed application form must be submitted to the !state by January 13, 1989. Staff is proposing to develop the sixteen acres west of Golden west Street at Talbert Avenue, This area is surrounded on three sides by developed parkland and on the fourth side by Golden west Street, Development would include open/passive area with trees, grass, walkways and picnic facilities in keeping with the 1986 and 1988 survey results. Parking and expanded rest rooms would also have to be included since the existing facilities are already impacted to the point of not being able to handle the current service levels on busy days. The city's landscape architec,ural firm has provided a preliminary cost estimate of, S1 .5 million for developing the sixteen acres. There will also be an additional cost of $160,000 for curbs, gutters and a sidewalk along Golden West Street added to this project estimate to provide a "finished ed e" along "the street.

AMYSIS Staff feels that the City Council 's intent at the time of forming the Huntington Central Park Equestrian Center Committee was to have a coimmittee composed of boarders representing specific rows and/or barns to insure a good line of communication on a contir,:ing basis, and for a fair democratic system to exist on the committee for the hearing of matter_ related to the equestrian center. The City Attorney indicated in an August 10, 1988, memo that the wording utilized In forming the committee was too broad for this specific definition of a boarder representative. To eliminate confusion and provide a clear definition of who may be a boarders' representative or an alternate, staff recommends that a representative mist board a horse in the row and/or barn being represented.

Mr. Engle further stated that Ids. Shue had accordingly removed her horse from the stable. QUESTION PRESENTED Can Meg. Shue remain on the Cquestrian Center Committee? 8RIRF ANSWER Yes, unless the procedure is amended. ANALYSIS The relevant provisions governing the grievance procedure are summarized as follows; 1. Problems of the "Equestrian Center users" are to be resolved by the procedure. ( Emphas�"aigded. ) 2.. "Concerned Boarders" are to ,submit written issues to the Committee. j ��CiMM711.1M'.AR•Jl1WYfMi.J'i1p Y1+�./��.[itiZ.vC.1fL7Cfn,s•.?!w�•hrh`4i r.1in • CeCy�.„ :;*?zai::T.;.;(,. `s,•..-. . r��.• ....:4'z,:.•s:,tCau:R!..ra,ar`wYrK`1fiy1 3 . Tile Committee consists of management and community services respresentatives and "representative or representatives for each row of paddocks and each barn with one representative for each twenty stalls in a given cluster and two representatives for c waters up to forty stalls ." (Emphasis added. ) 4 . The Committee will hear grievances, find facts, etc . and "function as an advisory body to the management and City Council regarding center services, facilitiea and operation. " (Emphasis added. ) I note that there are no provisions for removal of a representative nor is there a requirement that the representative be from among the group represented. The operative term in the procedure appears to be "a representative for each group." Accordingly , I find no requirement in the procedure adopted by the City Council which would require the removal of a duly elected representative for a given group. if the intent of the City Council in Adopting the grievance procedure was to require that a representative be 1) a boarder and 2 ) from amongst the group represented, then the procedure should have been drafted accordingly. ' Additionally, since the scope of issues to be presented concerns all Equestrian Center "users" (NOT JUST DOMWERS) , with respect' to services, facilities and operations, it would appear that disqualification based upon boarder status would be inconsistent with the broadly drafted coverage of the procedure. w x... .. • . � �, :i... .•M i.1 ti.1.{,ji}l.'- �.tit--';.'a ti.ir gl'.p4R'�RA'MRiMMr� y CONCLUSION ~Since there are no requirements in the grievance procedure for representatives to be boarders and there are nc removal requirementar i find no authority to remove Ms. Shue from her elected committee member position absent an amendment to the procedure adopted by the City Council . 0 IL MUTTON Clay Attorney /cib 3- yIrwrMw.-_•- '^.M�N.M.�r.rrr lM[/W.^w..ti�.w-....+w+...�..•..,[:r t:3 y. i ii.Liilr..:i:71'Cr►N�'r811aiS'�1�+{1V�':L'd�'iv:�idbACk.� ,.

This General Obligation Bond would be paid back through the General Fund by instituting a trash collection fee. The children's library wing to utilize $1.600,000 of General Fund money available because of the additional revenue to the city returned from the Public Facilities Corporation (PFC) funds. The General Dbligation Bond funding for $26,400,000 and General Fund for $1,600,000 would pay for the $28,000,000 in park projects. MOTION 0: A General Obligation Boni for an additional $7,000,000 would be utilized to pay for other city unfunded capital improvewnt projects such as renovating flood contrnl channels. This bond would also be paid for through the General Fund by instituting a trash collection fee. The General Obligation Bond to develop the park and for other capital improvement projects would total $339400.000 ($26,400,000 for the pork and $7,000,000 for other city projects). 11MAL.YSIs At its August 3 Meeting, City Council referred the proposed master plan funding of Huntington Central Park back to the Community Services staff for further research. ►Own t,Ay...w-.�.w.-.. ..... �.-.�....r......r.+r...,.wr✓�..-..�....... ... _. ...-...........�...r.......r•...�-..•..

Renovation Protect is eliminated from the master plan based on a staff's concurrence with a councilperson who indicated that the area is naturally a meadow, not a lake. It would be more realistic and cost-effective to retitle the area Taibert Meadow. 1 Staff was directed to look into ways to generate revenue. Staff explored the options of a golf course, softball field and parking ;deters. It is estir--ted that a nine-hole executive golf course with driving range woul( met approximately $100,000 per year in revem* to .the city. Due to the ,�.rge number of acres required and the survey result dtich pointed toward a more q y s passive Park, a golf course is not proposed at this time. Staff also reviewed the possibility of developing two softball fields. A separate revenue bond for S1,500,000 could be used to build this complex and then it could be paid for- with user fees from the adult softball program. Currently, the adult softball leagues consist of only 42 percent Huntington Beach residents; therefore, staff does not recommend this option. r 'REQUEST FOR CITY COUI L ACTION t"14% PAGE THREE HUNTINGTON CENTRAL. PARK MASTER PLAN AND FUNDING There exists 1,468 parking spaces within the park system. If metered at fifty cents per hour, they would generate $260,000 per year after the second year. There are 345 additional parking spaces proposed in the master plan, plus an undetermfned inumber in the swimming pool/gymnasium/recreation center area. This would generate an additional SE0,000 for a total of $320,000 annually. If parking meters are implemented, it is '"aff's recommendation to offer a free parking pass to residents. This wo<<` reduce the overall parking revenue by an estimated 50 percent, but would he promote the use of the- park by Huntington Beach residents. Several methods exist for funding this master plan proposal. A $26,000,000 General Obligation Bond could be put before the voters for the entire Huntington Central Park master plan. It is estimated that the annual cost of a $26.000,000 General Obligation Bond at 6.." for a thirty year term would be 29.60 per $1,000 of assessed evaluation for a Household. Staff retzmends a General Obligation Bond, where the city pays back fie bond with General Fund monies. If the General Fund is used, the bond issue is not put before the voters. Currently, the city pays the trash collection fee for housing of four units or less. All others directly pay for trash collection. Based on 44,000 out of 68,000 housing units, the cost per household is approximately $4.75 per month to generate $2,500,000 annually to pay back a $33,400,000 General Obligation Band. Council could enact this new fee, thereby charging each household for trash collection instead of only a portion of Huntington Beach residents. The $3,500,000, or a portion thereof, in General Fund monies now earmarked for this pay,wnt could then be redirected to pay back a General Obligations Bond, This bond could be used to ccNnplete Huntington Central Park and other city unfunded capital improvement projects such as renovating the flood control channels. Unfunded capital improvemnt projects have been prioritized by each department. City Council would determine the overall city priorities once the funding program is adapted. It is estimated that $2,000,GOO per year would be needed for the park and another $500,000 per year for the other unfunded capital improvement projects in order to pay off a $33,406j000 bond ($Z6,400 000 bond for the park and $7,000,000 bond for other unfunded c-ipital projectsi.

Install parking meters in the park system, and use the revenue to pay back the bond. This would reduce the cost of the bond to each household. 5. Install parking meters in the park system with free parking passes for local residents. 6. Place a 326,000,000 General Obligation Bond befori the voters to pay for the bew recreation facilities. 7. A General Obligation Bond alternative is to present each project as a separate entity so the residents could vote for those facilities they want to see developed in the park. For example, a resident might vote for the j $10,740,000 for passive/natural areas, but vote against the bandstand bond ` issue. 8. Instead of a bond, development could be on a "pay as you go" basis. i Institute a trash collection fee, thereby freeing up existing General Fund ; monies for constructing facilities in Huntington Central Park and other f unfunded capital improvement projects such as flood control channel inprovenents as the money becomes available. This avoids the necessity to pay interest as is the case with a bond. 9. Consider professional survey of citizens' needs related to Central Park and capital improvements related to the city.

Also, include in the master plan a swimming pool , cwmunity center with gymnasium, equestrian trail improvements, and Phase I improvements to the existing amphitheater. A SZ5,000,000 obligation bond will be presented to the voters as a vehicle to pay for this development. MOTION 02: Huntington Central Park master plan should include only Phase I of the amphitheater at a cost of $80,000 and omit the botanical garden. STAFF RErC"ENOATION: MOTION #I : A high pepcentage of the undeveloped areas of Huntington Central Park should be developed in an open, passive way for the people who .:ant to stroll through the park and have picnics and family outings. Of the total number of acres available, 4 acres, or 4.1t could be used to provide other recreational outlets such as are available with an aquatic complex, community center and gymnasium. MOTION 02: Staff also recommends that a major bond issue be developed to provide ail necessary funding for the full development of Huntington Central Park. 'Ibis would include all elements of the finally adopted Master Plan. It is further recommended, that the City Council direct staff to prepare and present a complete analysis and comprehensive financial plan. MO e/�i M 04 4 REQUEST FOR CiTY COUNCIL ACT" June 5, 19$. HUNTINGTUN CENTRAL PARK MAST . PLAN Page Two AM LYSIS On July 12, 1986 and August 18, 1986, City Col►ncil conducted joint study sessions with the Community Services Commission and staff. It was dete nnined that a survey would be sent to Huntington Beach residents through the water bill. In the interim, on February 17, 1987, City Council approved Phase I of the amphitheater at a cost of $214,000 and phase I of the bandstand for $72,000. On March 2, 1987, the survey results were tabulated and City Council referred the survey and master plan to the Community Services Commission and staff for review and recommendation. There were 46,500 surveys distributed through the water bill , mobile homes, civic center and recreation centers. Twenty-seven percent or 12,600 responses were sent back to the city. Overall , the public wanted the undeveloped sections of the park to be passive, open grass with picnic and playground areas. There was also interest demonstrated in same of the more active types of recreational facilities. Survey results are attached. The cormiission and staff are in agreement with regard to creating an overall passive park with open grass, trees, picnic, playground, garden and lake areas. They are also in agreemrt that there should be a swimming pool , community center with gymnasium and equestrian trail improvements. While the Community Services Commission does not recommend the botanical garden, staff s t environments d be included. C ii i o also feel o van a of garden envlron s caul � ss n Y 9 feels that renovation in the amount of $80,000 for the amphitheater is satisfactory. Staff would like to seek complete renovation and improvements totaling $660.000. Also, staff has included the bandstand, though the commission has opposed this facility's development in the park. Commission and staff feel that a c i ty of our size should have a complex with a swimming pool, gymnasium and recreation center, Huntington Beach is a beach city without adequate aquatic far,llities to make residents "water safe, " It is also felt that, with such a facility, the city can maximize its aquatic potential for senior citizens, adults, youth and the handicapped. The community center with gym^asium can meet a wide variety of recreation interests on a relatively small plot of land. It provides the city with the opportunity to maximize the use of the park for the greatest amount of people. Commission and staff are proposing using a ports,)n of the disc golf course (approximately four acres) for the site. This will not impact the existing passive park or the undeveloped park acreage. The Community Services Commission has not had an opportunity to respond to the children's library wing or improving Talbert Lake. The Library Patrons Fousidation, Library Board, Friends of the Library and Friends of tt„,i Children,*, Library have expressed support for the children's wing. Talbert Lake is included due to the public cornents about the lake drying up each sim mr and the impact on the wildlife. t . i REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACT r June 5, 1987 HUNTINGTON CENTRAL.

Thompson Fro► ax Dompan, Director City Administrator Community Services Subject HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK Date February 18, 1987 . • SURVEY RESULTS Per City Council direction, the Huntington Central Park survey was sent through the water billing to 46,000 hones plus an additional SOD surveys wtire distributed through comaunity centers, the civic center and mobile home parks. There were 12,560 respunses, which represents a 27 percent return rate. The attached results indicate the public is primarily interested in maintaining passive areas within the park, but there is also interest demonstrated for a variety cf active facilities. lie believe the results are not clear cut and do require some interpretation. Aiong others, there is the ' question of passive areas versus a passive park. A considerable amount of the park is passive now. Out of a total of 202 developed acres, 139 acres or 69 percent of Cie park now developed is passive/open, Developed parkland is an area where specific improvements have been spade. These can be facilities such as a picnic shelter or an area that has been developed as a passive/natural area. The undeveloped park southeast of Talbert and Ell 's could be examined as a potential area for active and passive recreation. This could be clone while minimizing activity on the currently developed park to a very few new facilities that will not impact existing passive areas. The top three types of activities on the survey results (pass ivelnatural areas, picnic area and playground) already exist in the developed area of the ppark. We t;ave proposed similar park activities south of Talbert and east of Goldenwest. Sully Miller Lake was the fourth highest priority on the survey, but the park already has two lakes in the developed section. We feel the city should nut duplicate facilities before it looks at new types of recreation so that the city can meet the leisure time desires of s larger segment of the population. If this premise is approved by you and City Council , the city could point its efforts toward developing priorities numbered five through ten. which are off-street improvements, co minity center. botanical garden (or tea garden?). aquatic complex, softball fields and gynmasium. The survey indicated that S9.3 percent to 76.4 percent of the people ranted these facilities as either their high or low choices - - both of which show a desire for such facilities in the park. With the purchase of the twenty-five acres known as the Mushrow Farts and A. C. Ravion's ten acres, only limited funds are available for development. If we are to move forward with facilities in Huntington Central Park, we will have to explore alternative funding sources. ^ 1,r ^ i 1 i HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK '�EY RESULTS Page Two With your approval , we feel this survey information should he transmitted to City Council recommending that the matter be referred hack to the Community Services Comission and staff for review and Nrfaritization within thirty to forty-five days. After this initial step his been accomplished, a City Council study session should be conducted to review the park survey results, approve the master plan projects and detem.ine the funding sourcas for development of Ifuntington Centre] Park.

We contacted Robert WfIliams , President of American rnlf Comnany. mmrtr.rican Gnlf Com^panv leases and nperat(Is Meadowlark Golf Course. It also develops golf courses. Mr. Williams indicated that American Golf would definitely he- interested in huildinq and operating a golf course in Huntington Central Park. OVERVIEW ripresentative from hierican f?nlf and city staff made i site visit to the park to evaluate the feasibility of developing a golf course and possible locations within the park. On the +cost sides of the park there are approximately sixty acres available south of Huntington Lake and the Equestrian Center between Gnldenwest and Edwards. This includes the A. C. Marion property and the undeveloped pr-kland currently used for the enuestrian trails. East of Goldenwest and south of TAlbert, there Are forty-five to fifty acres available north of -the proposed mobile home relocation hark and existing gun range. The minimum area required for a nine-hole executive Golf course is thirty acres and would be apprnxinateiy 1,800 to 7,000 linear yards. Twenty-five acres is needed for a par three, nine-hole course that wnuld be about 1 ,7AE1 yards long. These figures include area fnr a driving range, which the American Golf representative feels is necessary to mnake such an operation prnf i table. American Golf wnul d al sn irefer to hive the fncil i tv l i Blaze(', especially the driving range. Eighteen-hole courses regvire at least twice as much area. Until a conceptual site plan it arepared, the exact area needed, facilities and cost cannot he deterY.iined, host ttr+erican Golf Company is building the David L. Baker Executive Golf Course on rounty property at Mile Square earl; in Fountain Valley and the specifics art that course can provide sore generalized data rejarding probahle costs for a course in Huntington Reach. The David L. Baker Executive Course will he eighteen-holes on sixty-three acres. - It will he approximately 3,ono yards long. It: will include banquet facilities, a pro shop. locker room, maintenance and and driving range. The invest%,nt for American Golf is projected at 3 million to 3.5 million dollars. i• ' . HUNTINGTON CENTRAL r'1 Paige Two j EXECUTIVE GOLF COURSt ' Though an eighteen-hole course is preferable, American Golf Company feels 3 nine-hole executive or par three golf course with driving runile would be feasible. 'The 1981 llltrasystens report is not in agreement with American Golf. It indicated that a course would have to have a restaurant, bar and hotel to he profitable. That report estimated annual rent to the city of 515O,0O0 for an eighteen-hole qolf course with the associated complementary uses. i f POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE ASPECTS I f PROS GQNs 1. With Seacliff Golf Course now private, 1. A single recreational use would there is only one public coarse monopolize a large pnrtic,n of (Meadowlark Golf Course) the park. 2. A large, manicured, {green turf area 2. If problems such As arrant golf mould be aesthetically pleasing and ,'galls could not be mitigated in enhance the overall view of the nark, the design process, city would receive public complaints. 3. City would not have to pay for the development. 3. If carirse is on west side of park , a portion of the park 4. City would not nave to maintain currently used for equestrian that portion of the park. trails would have to be utilized. Trails could maintain the same 5. A course mould be revenue-generating length, but the area would he for the city (tM:adowlark Golf Course reduced from about forty-five paid the city over W 0,00O in acres to twenty-five acres. F Y 85/tit 1. 4. City owns only 189 of the 300 encyclopedia lots on the west side of the park. Estimated purchase price for the ill lots is $1 .57 million. 5. Part of the area on the east side or the park has county limitations requiring city to nay a portion of any revenue to the county. 6. Lights will have an impact on any surrounding resideirtial areas. CONCLUSION In conclusion, there ;,re points for and against devclopfnq a golf course in the park. Staff feels that sixty acres woula be an excessive amount of area for a single use; thirty acres Might be nare reasonable. The Huntington Ventral Park survey did not address the issue of a gnif course in the park, therefore, ai conclusion as to public demand cannot be rude at this time. If mitigating measures could be designed into a golf course, a nine-hole course with driving range might be a viable alternative for approximately thirty to forty acres in Huntington Central Park. 1 HUNTINGTON CENTRAL Psi �"� Page Throe EXECUTIVE GOLF COURSL Should City Council decide it wants to pursue the possibility of a golf course in the park, a feasibility and•design consultant who specializes in golf courses should be retained. Staff contacted the Southern California Golf Association's Director of Communications, Mr. Bob Thomas. Ile indicated that the assxfAtion does not provide such services, but he did recoewnd two possible consultants. Also, staff concurs with the Ctwwunity Services Cornilsslon's unanimous motion of February 11 . 1907: "The Community Services Commission supports a position of having r golf course viewed as a legitimate option for possible inclusion in Central Park. It urges the City Council to take no action on the golf course at the present time, but: would urge that it, along with other facilities in thA survey, he considered together. It is also recomnended that both the survey and the aol f course be referred to the Cornission in a tir.+oly manner for t, review and reccmirendation to City Council regarding the overall r prioritization of fac,ilitfes in Huntington Central Pdrk."

In summary: 1 ,468 parking spaces are available in Central Ptirk, Central. Library, community centers and Greer, Worthy and Marina Parks . Meter location maps are attached. - A twent -five cent per hour fee would generate approxi-- mately 165,000 annually; fifty cents per hour would be $330,000. - First year expense to the city would be approximately $455,000 (parking meters, vehicle , equipment and operating costa) . -- Second year coot $71 ,000. - At twenty-five cents per hour, the program would pay out at the end of the fourth year, realizing $94,001 over expenses. At fifty cents per hour, the payout would be at the end of tho second year with a gain of $259,000 annually. Parklijg Meter History •• The Community Services Commioaion recommended at its June, 1979, meeting, that the City Council look at alternative methods of financing, park maintenance. One alternative was to install. parking; meters in Huntington Central Park and at the community centers. At its meeting of November, 19T9, the City Council unanimously voted to entabliah a policy of no parking meters in any public parks . If you need additional information or input, please advise.

It was determined that a survey would be sent to Huntington reach residents through the water bill. In the interim, on February 17, 1907, City Council approved Phase I of the amphitheater at a cost of $214,000 and Phase I of the bandstand for $72,000. On March 2, 1987, the survey results were tabulated and City Council referred the survey and master plan to the Connunity Services Commission and staff for review and recommendation. There were 46,500 surveys distributed through the water bill , mobile homes, civic center and recreation, centers. Twenty-seven percent or 12,600 responses were sent back to the city. Overall , the public wanted the undeveloped sections of the park to be passive, open grass with picnic and playground areas. There was also interest demonstrated in some of the more active types of recreational facilities. Survey results are attached. The commission and staff' are in agreement with regard to creating an overall passive park with open grass, trees, picnic, playground, garden and lake areas. They are also in agreement that there should be a swimming pool , community center with gymnasium and equestrian trail improven_nts. while the Coemnmunity Services Commission does not recommend the botanical garden, staff feels a variety of garden environments could be included. Commission also feels that renovation in the amount of $80,OW for the amphitheater is satisfactory. Staff would like to seek ccw plete renovation and irmprovements totaling $660,000. Also, staff has included the bandstand, though the comission has opposed this facility's development in the park. Commmission and staff feel that a city of our size should have a complex with a swimming pool , gymnasium and recreation center. Huntington Beach is a beach city without adequate aquatic facilities to make residents "water safe." It is also felt that, with such a facility, the city can maximize its aquatic potential for, sinior citizens, adults, youth and the handicapped. The comaurmlmnity center with gyrnna:iu►m can meet a wide variety of recreation interests on a relatively small plot of land, It provides the iity with the opportunity to maximize the use of the park for the greatest amount. of people. Commission and staff are proposing using a portion of the disc goi ; course (approximately four acres) for the site. This will not impact the existing passive park or the undeveloped park acreage. The Commo0ty► Services Commission has not had an opportunity to respond to the childre n's library wing or improving Talbert Lake. The Library Oatrons Foundation, Library Board, Friends of the library and Friends of the Children's Library have expressed support for the children's wing. Talbert Lake is included due to the public comments about the lake itrying up each summer and the impact an the wildlife. . .1 1 1 t 1987 RN:QUGST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION � June 5,HUNT AGTON CENTRAL. r�MASTER PLA14 Page Three Facilities proposed for the park are delineated below: FACILITMS COWISSIUN STAFF Passive/Natural Area 9,740,003 s 9,740,000 (open space, picnic, play areas) Sully Miller Lake �350,000 t150,000 Swimming Pool 4,D00,000 4,000,000 Community Center with Gymnasium 6,000,000 5,000,000 Amphitheater 2,000,000 660,000 2,000,000 2,000,000,OUO Garden Huntington Lake 275,000 2750000 Bandstand -0 1751000 Equestrian 'Trail 500,000 500,000 Children's Literary fling - - 2,000,000 Talbc.rt Lake 1 ,000,000 Total $24,245,OQU b2i1,000,000 A portion of a major bond issue can be substantially offset by pledging manias from the Park ulucostion of the hondPtn�thet Fundo and Hunti Huntington tleacheresidents.• . thereby reducing the ct Comission and staff support the general ot)ligation bond to finance the Huntington ewillj Park rovideeaelopment. if comp iC concept lete an ly isand c o pehen sive financial plan. a bond issue, staffplan.

The Community Services Commission and appointed suhcomnittee reviewed ,taff recommendations for performing arts facilities in MCP. While the Commissioners were understanding of the need for lighting to accommodate evening program'i and attract professional groups, the Commission approved staff recommendations providing the lighting In Phase 11. The Commission voted to approve the subcommittee's recommendation far the construction of a bandstand in the City of Huntington Beech. However, while the i Commission was supportive of the swwr concert series program, a motion to locate t1,* bandstand in HCP did not pass. Throughout the review process of both or these projects, discussion included the need to encourage a partnership approach to financing these projects. Staff has recommet,*1 the establishment of a performing arts foundation to draw support from corporate contributors and local businesses. While the concerts in the park accomwc+dsted at the bandstand facility would be free to the public, the summer theater program, facilitated at the amphitheater would be revenue generating. The estimated total cost of the amphitheater would he $609,000. The estimated total cost of the bandstand construction would be $1600000.

It is clear that there is an accelerated gr--wth in the Cityms interest in supporting the arts. Fortunately, rt±a-e are s ;1 gro,;Ys s.Ka 1=ve existed for a number of years which are well place-d co take advantage of this support and can therefore provide the city with perfarmtiances-of good quality which ;rill bring even more popular support. In our research, however. it became quite clear that these groups are very fragwented and have relatively weak associations with the city. Indeed, city support has been slight itself. 4 particular ly wlmen you compare it with other cities of sirallar size in the county. The Allied Arts Board has recognized this fact with one of its strongest reconraendations, that of creating immediately the position of a full-time arts coordinator. We strongly applaud this "rove on the part ' of the city, which will be completed this s- moer. This will tend to give an important voice to the arts in Huntington Beach where it is needed the most -- in the city government. The Allied Arts Board seen a large "Center for hots" sane years down the toed. The upgrading of the Central Park amphitheater and a building to house the interim Center for the Arts are seen as steps toward this ambitious goal. This is a prudent plan and its success hinges on the strategy developed at.the present time and that is the thrust of this report. = THE CIVIC PERFOliKM ARTS GRMS 1K RMIPGPOK BEM31 COP i We can identify the following performing arts groups: a) The Huntington Beach Concert Band - t b) The Huntington Beach Playhouse (community theatre) c) Various dance companies throughout the City d) Proposed summer theatre group (Golden West affiliation) Thrum groups hem more differences the similarities due to the nature of their craft and this fact alosae ssltes it eEstrelrifficwlt to aatisf' ell of their needs ,n any one facility, let alone a very specialised sad limited one an propaeed by the Allied Arts Hoard, that is, the upgrading of the Central Parr anphitheeter. by examining them groups and heir individual. needs we can clearly see he challc=3M. - A) M HIWIMCM BEMM CINCERT BAND Thin le a very -old established group that has more of a following outside the city than in it, due in large nessnre to the lack of a suitable city facility. Financial support by the city has not a been significant until recently. The present City Council has recognized the value of supporting �--j this type of group. In our opinion this is a major performing arts group that the city is fortunate to have available. We feel that'if a Suitable how could be found for its group it would he an instant popular success and; tend to i.wreaae the support for all performing arts groups in the city, r as well as increasing civic pride. However, this group has very spa=ialized news. They include: r 1. Room an stage for sixty ple7ers, plus their stands and instruments. d x 2. Risers arranged in three tiers. 4 3. Sound- sbell to direct the music- toward• the audience. 4. Lights for reading the- score s.ed. to we she bond at night. 5. Very large-and- open grmmy area for s large- audience to gather together, picnic. and to sit and 1 listen. It is anticipated that these concerts would- be free to the public. 6.- Public address system to announce selections. It can, readily be seen that the ses11 amphithaatser- in the park is not suitable for this group, nor could'it be- rinetvated to fit, the requirements within a reasonable budget in our opinion. The SsgMthestr+e is suitable for sell quartets and the like that may be put together from the concert head: Of course, other estobliibed sa1e21 musical groups could also be invited in to play in the amphithmter.

It is important that thin proposed interim theatre =t be smeller than the present location of tbs My and that the ovrxk3ad be less thaw they are paying at present. It should be a thrust stage Frith the audience an three siden, seating between one and a }calf to two hundred patrons. ?here ore a number of possibilities we have explored. We do not feel that an interim theatre be located within Central Park unless it is part of the library. The Central Perk Library has a theatre water-planned east of the entry --- also a children's wing is slated to be added soon to the r; West of the entry. Thfs atruucture alght incorporate a theatre space of modest proportions suitable for carmarui,tf theatre. Often such a space can doable are a lecture and demonstration space. Childrav'a theatre done by tsae comawnity theatre is also an attractive possibxity. A pernmumt free standing buildint of simple design alight also serve if it were located in or close to Qmsral Park. (fit Lary alma Bast of the library would be suitable.) This would automatically u provide parking and a city connection. Of course. the proposed Center for the Arta cotad provide a home.tbmt wad- tie most sgttable. But it'should be.noted that the comaonity theo.tre does not creed elabouite facilities sad that a modest pl&ce chat they could call and use as their own sight actually be prafw r&4. they started in a barn and that could still serve well today, had it not - i been torn down for new development. An intaresting and intriguing powibility involves The Main Street Library. This building is suited to a mall stage in its largest room►. which has a h:[gh ceiling necessary for groper lighting of theatrical functions. 14hat is especially exciting .8 the potential of tying in a number of cultural aspects of the city for maximum potential and use. The library would shift to an arts eaphasis, S with cultural arts bm"O arts related shop, record and video tape checkouts, film and television E showing*, arts lectures, etc. Naturally, any especially popular function now provided by the library could be retained. regardless if it were arts related or not. But the main thrust of the Bain ? r Street Library would be towarda the arts. That being Um cam, a built—in theatre would be a natural. During the day the library would make use of the apace. aad after 7 p.m. the Buntington Beach Playhouse would be in residence. The Playhouse is a good group to have associated with the library because the audience (older, establiabed) that supports one, is likely to be a patron of the other. "The FAim m Report", which details the advantages of the proposed city lease o: purchase of the Edison, facility.,on Main Street for a visual arts center points out that the Center could be "v1suaily linked with the Ykin Street Library to provide an aesthetically pleasing introduction to the Super Block itself." We enthusiastically agree. Such a step west not be taken lightly or timidly, hotieyer. It would require a comitnent to do everything necessary to properly integrate the two buildings and their various aspects into a cocoon cultural purpose. To be svcceseful, funding must be sufficient. The Huntington Beach Playhouse has some funds available which could defray the theatrical equipment costs (lights, spend). The rest of the funding for renovation of the space would have to come from city sources. The 8untiDgton Beach Playhouse is also exploring redevelopment possibilities. The final decision must be node by their board, of course, and we would only recommend that the city take a serious interest in this group as their own civic enterprise and provide all assistance it can to help community theatre thrive in Huntington Beach. SUFFM It ergs to be noted here that staffing needs inevitably follow construction of new facilities for the arts (or anything else). These new activities fall under the purview of the Cultural Affairs i Director and he or she will require a staff person for secretarial and cowsunication work. In i addition, we womWexpect that the setting up of the bendahell, watching the asphitheatre. and other jani.toral md security tasks would increase those particular budgets to some extent. Volunteers can S be wed effoctIvely. particularily to parking. abdfence asnagewat, and ticket sales and promotion. j A •fir cf ewwatioU have been left out of the first phase that sbonld be included later.

SUPPORT FACILITY An important concept for t,ic Arts in Huntington Lath is the idea of synergy, that is, the ability of tha- -hole to be greater than the stem of it's psrts, In huzan terms. this gleans that the s,parate arts organizations will have a greater impact on the community if they are related in some way so they may support each other and be more successful. ibis is the rationale for having the Cc=unity Band and the summer theatre program both in the save Central Park locale, with the PL.in Library adding audience potential and acting as a magnet for the new arts attractions, The Main Street Library could be yet another example of a ccming together of the arts for greater 1r-pact. rr the FAInnn Building directly across from the Main Street Library is, as planned, turned into an Arts Center, the library can play ` vitai role. We would suggest that the Yzin Street Library be revamped as an Arts Library. This would mean an emphasis on records, tapes, lectures, demonstrations, drama, films, etc. in the library's collections and activities. Those activities and collections that are now used the most (arts related or rot) could rermin. of course. Others of little patronage would b� dropped or cfoved to other locations in the system. Coorni..ation with the Arts Center wog.=e be vital on the wany various arts projects and programs supparted by both over a tvDical One such protect would be having a resldent theatre company at the library. Although this is unusual, it is not unique and has been successful befo-e. The cost stunning exaWple is the Folger library in Washington U.C., where research on Shakespeare and perrorxances at the library go hand in hand. Both activities support each other and the marriage is perceived by the public as exciting - as indeed it is. A natural resident for the library would he the iluntington Beach Playhouse, which is looking for a new home. This group is well established and has a loyal following of taany years standing. It is very respectful of its audience and is a responsible organization. _ 3 i Other reasons to give the !isin 5:.:—t '.ibrary this mission include the following: The library has the proper hai;,ht and space for a theatre is its gain roos. 2. The library is not a dynamic element in the city at the present tine and is ripe for a new mission. 3. The library at the present time does not use all of the space it has available. 4. Many of the patrons of the Playhouse are older residents, as are the patrons of the Main Street Library . and so the audiences will reinforce each other. 5. The patrons oL the Arts Center will also be compatible with the theatre and library audiences. i. Parking at the Arts Center in the evening is available. 7. Support areas for the theatre, such as office space, dressing and make-up, restrooss, etc., can be located in the ;ibrary without strdetureal changes. 8. The Cemunity Playhouse has done children's theatre, which is desirable in this new library content. 9. The Coum-.W.y Playhouse has funds for the extensive lighting nee-is of the proposed stage. 10. Roth the library and the Playhouse have indicated interest in the concept. There is potential here for some exciting work in the arts. It will require careful study and planning to icli-!w rhrough on the concept, since it is vital that the project be done in the best manner possible. The quality of *-he execution will be directly reflected in the qulaity of the performance of both the library and the theatre in the nrop3sed Arts Library. r -a MAIN STREET Ue `A f �+a Tv SUPPORT FA "AWTV \ l , 1 aua UWA" UgHgARSAL ASSEMBLY j Itow MV� f fI\ w j1uxvm KAU � 1 iAiAffuwwBE LTI-PUMP 2 LATFOR ———— } FIADWc Foot/ �� �.• OFF1Cf ALE IRST Flom Arr••ra r Ir RONI YEO FAIR ARCHITECT �r i r", ' t f 4 I t {. . � f �` i t 1' t i ...� ♦;,_,1 .v-., `�J ��. ��.. �����;� iF,;i ';Y�� �'�� � � .. . � •�,j�y. -f � S�; ���� � �1� 4 •r. •1; .. •,� r, - .. �-1 t ,. ^;}"' T- 3—P&A 00 se ���r t .ArRiLt,� t aUNLMITED 11OZ2 GARDEN GROVE BLVD, ■ GARDEN 04OVE CALIFORNIA 92643 M (714)537-0847 J June 23, 1986 i } Ilan I ao 500 Jasmine Aveaue i Corona Delmar, California 92625 Ions We have just received your letter in eeference to the Central Park Amphitheater .

My experience has been that many schools and civic stage :~roas are not suitable for dance. A good example is the several stages ubed at the Orange County Fair, A raised, smooth, wooden floor is the beat to dance on, A ceinent floor io very undesirable because it can cause injuries to the dancers. In ad- dition, ehanBinA rooms should be as close to the stage area as possible. I hopo you have a budget that will allow for a professional-looking facility.

Good performance:apaeea for dance are difficult to find especially in the Huntington Beach area. We would be interested in one performance per year in May or early June.. The company performs pieces ranging from full length narrative ballets to thort conteaporacy works. We would be interested in both full concert% and participation in group festivals.

Out mail— ing tiat includo n at,out 5,000 names. In regard to stage site, a GU' x 30' area is needed to do major works. More importantly, however, is the type of flooring used. I art► sure you •s,4 are alceady aware that a concrete type of flooring is dangerous for dancers. If you need further information, please don't hesitate to contact Me Sincerely, r { 1` Kristen Olson Potts Artistic Director r 1 INTERNATIONAL DANCE ENSEMBLE, INC.

Dunaj would be interested in participating in whatever activities are planned. I am familiar with that amphitheater and it is not suited to our i group's performance in its present state because there are no dressing rooms or other plane for costumes. The floor of the stale is a little rough for many of the dances we ,perform and wou d have to be improved . The r:eating capacity must also be expended and some form of enclosure for control of the tioket sales would seem to he necessary. Dunaj Folk Ensemble performs folk dances from several countries of Europe and the Middle Last. We also perform an Appalachian Mountain Clog Suite which we will be taking to Yougoslavla to perform in Summer, 198? . The nature of our performances, at leaot the longer ones, requires costume ohahges, thus the need for drites- ing roor�s. Somf: of the dances are performed barefoot, hence the need .for a smooth floor.. We are very flexible in our productions and -an either provide a full-lea th program or we can be one of A series of groups. Performances can be from fifteen minutes to an hour and half. 'We dn free performances on occasion, however, our minimum fee for most performances is $230.00. If I may be of assistance in planning something, please do let me know.

Beach Central Park Amphitheater Dear Mr. Yeo, Sea and Sage Audubon Soeiaty has asked that I communicate with you regarding the proposed expansion of the Huntington Beach Central Park Amphitheater and the potential impacts that may result from such a project. I am most grateful for this opportunity to provide some input pertaining To--The importance of Huntington Beach Central Park to the region's birds and other life forms. A11 concerned parties greatly appreciate your solicitation of relevant information. As a biological consultant and avid nature enthusiast, I have spent hundreds of hours enjoying the bird life at Central Park. Because of Its proximity to the coat and luxuriant vegetations few (if any) placer In routhern California can match Central Park's abundant in diverse bird population. (See enclosed checklist) . People have come from as far ateay as northern California, Arizona, Washington, and several other wastern states to see the birds of Central Park. In fact , i have recently run into birders from Great Britain at the Park! In any ease,people routinely drive down from Pasadena, Los Angoles, etc. to anjoy nature at the parks it is simply one of the beat remaining places In coastal southern California to observe birds at all seasons. Of the birds on the enclosed checklist, approximately 40 species have been confirmed as breeding upecien within the Parki I 'm sure that we will amid more in coming years. I ant presently conducting a survey of the breeding birds at the park for the Orange County Breeding Bird AtIcas this year it the second in a five year project. I have already detected a number of breeding species that are very rare or unusual for Orange County or southern California in general. In particular, I know of only one or two locations other than Central Park where Common Koorhen and the coastal Orange crowned Warbler breed In Orange County. It is also evident from the enclosed checklist that a number of s eciou that are very rare in California have been ober:rveds most of Usne have been penciled in because the birds do not occur in southern California often enough In other locales to warrant Inclusion on a standardized checklist. As an example, two Yellow-throated Yfreos were seen in Central Park in 1985 (one in spring and one in fall) t only one has ver been seen in San Diego County. Although nature onthuniasts realize that we must share the park with a number of other, often competing "Special interest" groups, we are nevertheless reluctant to accept changes at the Park when they further degrade remaining habitats and result in the lose of the remaining native wildlife. Of most; concern ore those species marked with an "E" on the enclosed checklist] all are state and federal endangered species and dll were present at the park within the recent past. Note that the Least Bell's Vireo is only one Of' four endangered species on the w 2) lieti we are concerned that all may be affected by the construction phase of the proposed project and by the human pressure that must Certainly reeult once the amphitheater in fully functional. Of the four endangered apscion listed, it is conceivable the California Least Tern may be the species most adversely affectedi individual birds or groups of five or more are routinely 6nan Foraging on the periphery of the lake and often pass within a few meter© of the existing amphitheater. Thus, we believe that an environmental impact review may be necessary and that the potential iapacta to the Fark'n rowaining wildlife be carefully considered with pattibular emphasis on the extent of jeopardy to the aforementioned, endangered bird species. We sincerely hope tbat a "No Project" alternative is seriously considered and that", ark in recognized as the extraordinarily valuable nature reserve that It in. Again, we thank you very much for the opportunity to easement an the proposed amphitheater project at Huntington Beach Central Park and genuinely appreciate your zoncern for the wildlife therein, IIM Loren R.

When the costs are known, a determination would be made on the involvavment and use by the YMCA based on the YMCA's fiscal contribution to the project. ANALYSIS The YMCA was originally given a three year ground lease on February 10. 1982, of four acres in Huntington Central Park to begin, construction of a pool , recreation center and gymemnasium. When the YMCA could not meet its obligation in three years, the City Council approved an extension of one year. On February 10, 1966. the Y was given a three month extension to May 10, 1986. The YMCA does not have the necessary funds to build a facility in the park and would now like to explrre a cooperative venture with the city. At its June Ili, 1986 weting. the Community Services Comermission approved the master plan for Huntington Central Park with a natatorium, recreation center and Uwasivam top priorities for the park. The Cons+mission recamended the city move ahead +pith these facilities and the softball fields as soon as � possible based on the availability of funds. i The Conti ssion was to take action on the YMCA involvement in Huntington Central Park at its July 9, 1966 meeting. Due to the lack of a quorum, the Commission did not Meet; however, the Commission Chair and staff feel that based on east discussions, the Commission would be in agreement with the proposed recommendation. �1 1 No 4104 r.�- F'MiC'VG1�Gt11�.A' F i ,I 1 _i1 YMCA INYOLYEMEr-MN--*4NTI('bN CENTRAL PARK Page Two POSSIBLE FUNDING SOURCE Park Acquisition and aevelopwnt Fund Revenue Sharing Funds Redevelopment Funds Proposition 43 Grant ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1.

Eight months lapsed before a new executive was hired, and due to a normal time for orientation, we are just getting up to speed again. we have anticipated for the past ye,4r to a year and a half, that a major gift from $1.5 to 3 million dollars from FOP, a health maintenances organization, would crime through. The delay has been due to the necessity of FHP adhering preri.saly to regu- lations not forth by the State of California. At this point, _ money could be forthcoming £Korn FHP as early as July, or as late an 2-3 years from now. During the past two months, Frank Mola has offered assistance in the Construction of the facility by keeping the costa of labor and materials to a minimum. Nothing more specific has been tied down at this point, Currently we have $175, 000 in the bank, and approximately $600* 000 in collectible pledges; for a total of $775,000. Our initial Flans for the phase I development of a fasailitV was A 35, 000 square foot plant by Parkin Architects at $81 per y square foot finished.

The 33, 000 squares foot facility was figured at $45 per square foot for a cost of $1, 575, 000. The pool would cost an additional $300, 000 for a total of $1, 875, 000. Thant prices do not include furnishing, equipping, or start-up. Both of the above facilities includes Gymnasium, pool, ad- ministrative offices, locker facilitiese, weight. room, Caxdiovas- cular fitness lab, meeting rooms, day care center, and handball/ racquetball Courts. We propose the followiggt 1) The YMCA will place available funds and pledged funds in escrow to be used for the project. 2) The YMCA will continue its fund raising efforts and pleige all capital ponies raised toward the project. 3) The City will provide the balance of the funds necessary to build the project. 4) Tr YMCA will staff, operate, and umirtain the facility it no additional coats to the City. 5) ThoCity can choose to build the facility where they feel it would beat serve the community' s needs. This inin effort between the City of Huntington Heach. and a non-profiL organization has been successfully done with the Boys and Girds; Club of Huntington Valley. we feel this could be ano- ther opportunity to bring about a benefit to our overall commun- iuy.

I � RECOMMENDATION } � t`t 1. Adopt a master plan for development of Huntington Central Park commencing July 1 , 1986, as funds become available with the following priorities: 1. Natatorium 7. Day Use Picnic Area 2, Gymnasium 8. Theme PlaY9round 3. Recreation Center 9. Sully Muller Lake 4. Softball Comp'%ex 10. Group Camping S. frisbee Golf Course 11. Equestrian Trail/Linear Park Linkage 6. Practice Slicer/Footbail Fields 2. Approve the development of the softball complex in two phases: t Phase I to be two softball fields and the parking lot. Phase It will be a third field, conce3sion building and batting cage. WI MS On January 12, 1981 , City Council approved a contract vith Ultwasystems, Inc, to i prepare a feasibility study for the development of Huntington Central Park. Ultrasystaoa provided a list of revenue-producing activities that could be included in the parts. On August 17, 1981 , City Council rejectod the ideas of a golf course and hotel while approving an equestrian canter, sports fields snd the passibility of fast food facilities where appropriate. On February 1 , 1982s Council approved the ground lease agreement with the YMCA. The equestrian center has been constructed.. A plan for 11 500 linear feet of equestv�ian trails within the park is scheduled for completion fn FY 1989190. r, P104 . � .+..w!+..rt.r.,..w•....+.. w►.u•.-r•VMt�:7:.:-. t S:.7.r no.......tr. ......�.,..a. ., xt= yr .-..... .'�"N;Tr...1]h":. ..;4..'tr a,r..r..reraw w.a.w... '? i r HCP MASTER PLAN Page Two On June 11, 1986, the Com►ounity Services Commission established priorities as listed in the Recomrendation. The natatorium, gymnasium and recreation center are projected for development prior to the softball fields for a number of reasons. The adult softball leagues have reached a point of equilibrium where those teams that register are being accepted into the program. No Huntington Beach team is turned away. The variou,; youth softball and baseball programs have also reached a point of balance. One program declines and its fields are distributed to other organizations. An example of this is the demise of the Ocean View American little league this past year. Also, the youth population Ws been on a decline as represented by the closure of local schools. If there is a desire shared by the local groups, it is for lights for night Tufts, not new fields. But this doesn t appear to be a major necessity and will not impact their continued existence. The two-field softball complex is scheduled for development in FY 1986/87. The Ca ital Improvement Projects budget includes $103800000 for this project. When the softball complex is developed, it is felt that it should ultimately consist of three fields, a concession building and a batting cage. The three fields would make it easier, to con►ls►ct tournaments and yet would not adversely Impact the area. Also, the conce;slon and batting cage will be revenue-producers with a positive clash flow, based on research data collected by the city's architect. A two-phased development would allow the city to move ahead on the two fields, then complete the protect in the second phase. The Commission felt gnat a city of our size should have a complex with a natatorium, Vmasivm and recreation center. It was with this idea in mind that the Comm ssiorr recommended on February 1 , 1982, that the YMCA be given a three-year ground lease agreement. because the city did not have the necessary funds to move ahead with the project. This was followed by a one-year extension and then a three-month extension. Tne final extension expired MAy 10, 1986. Today, the YMCA cannot meet it•; obligation and the city can build a project in a phased development. The cost of the facilities is estimated as follows: Natatorium - $2.9 to 3.4 Million Gymnr,sium - $1 .5 million Recreation Center - $2.5 million Softball Complex Phase I - $1 .6 million .Softball Complex Phase II - $1 .0 to 1.5 million TOTAL: $9.4 to 10.4 million The natatorium is recommended as tht number one priority because Huntington Beach ;s a beach city without adequate aquatics facilities to make residents water safe". it is also felt •that, with such a facility, the city can maximize its aquatic potential for senior citizens, adults, youth and the handicapped. ./w..•V..w..�.-.�._.._.._��...rn.++..+bar•..rN..:N++tUr•......wr.+«..•.-.-....•.,.._.......... ....... r....rww..�«r,,.�..rr..4,G1�Wa1:rS :X,•:'•f:: r•...�......w�.r,•�.......� � r r! • HCP MASTER PLAN Page Three It is projected that the natatorium, gymnasium, recreation center and softball complex could be built within the next five years. In order to accomplish this, the city would have to Make them a high priority cl-Wwide and then explore all available sources of funding, but it is felt by the Conrnuni ty Services Comission and staff that City Council should adopt these tour facilities as a top priority and approve the master plan as a whole to provide overall future direction. POSSIBLE FUNDING SOURCE Park Acquisition and Development Funds Redevelopment Funds Revenue Sharing Funds Proposition 43 Grant ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Approve the priorities, with the exception of making the softball complex as the first priority. P. Approve the priorities excluding the natatorium, Wrinasium and recreation t center.

SET = L � • ,��� M � ���PLAN , � City of Huntington Beach Cardoza-•DiLallo-Harrington was given the task to re-evaluate facilities proposed in the Economic Feasibility Study and subsequent revised masterplan. Options for consideration and study included: Softball Sports Field Complex Gun Range Refurbishment Gymnasium/Natatorium/Rec Ctr � . Sully ?tiller Lake Phase It RV Canping/Mobile Hose Relocation Japanese Tea House/Gardan AWhI theater/Playhouse Huntington Lake Frisbee Calf Course Relocation Open Natural Areas Equestrian Trails/Holsa Chic& Park Linkage Group Camp Area "Atlantic" (Theme Playground) i� SOFTBALL SPORTS FIELD COKPLEX + Ob ective: Provide two to three league-play softball fields with adequate parking, concess Ion/reatrootr building, and appropriate associated amenities. {, Although three (3) areas of Central Park Would lend themselves for the softball complex, the area selected for this facility is adjacent to Golden West, south of the Nature Center and north of the present frisbee golf course. This area Is ideal in that the existing rough grade provides for an approach at ;tlwe Talbert signal and .-eceaaed areas for the fields that would mitigate name reound and night: lighting. The centralized »ocation, direct access rrom Golden West, and prcximity to the future recreation center/natatorium complex art of a great advantage. -The alternatives proposed maintain 90% of the existing mature trees and { peripheral walk system that Will separate the fields from the current picnic ' and open play areas. To further mitigate noise and field lighting fro■ the residences along Lakeview a berm and further mass planting is proposed on the west side of the fields. Orientation of the fields is of a Concern for competitive play. However, Community .service's staff feel that night play will consume 80% of their reservatiorhs. the Community Service's requested distance of 3501 from hoseplate to canterfield has been mat on all fields. As a revenue-producing facility, a concession/restroom building is proposed. This structure will not only serve the immediate needs of the participants and spectators but will provida !or a central cant rel point .for security and field moni toring. To '> enhance the complex, a combivatton betting cage Is proposed to not only provide Mani• up practice for the players, who currently seek this activity elsewhi+re, but: provide an additional income resource. 77 .. .. A/a:M r'�tw..\.Kf'V�R•..N:af:7tWrM`wwu�r.rMF;.4 I � t GUN RANGE REPURAISIMNT Objective: Provide gun shop, class room and appropriate support facilities, Le: children'ra play area and parking, for an outdoor handgun (only) facility for police and public use. Some major concerns relative to the positioning , of a gun range facility Within Central Park are its juxtaposition to other recreational amenities, mitigating sound, and controlling "stray" bullets. The best alternative to accommodating these needs is found in the design of ranges that are recessed below ground level with appropriate bullet "traps" or. "eyebrow catchers" and partial of full overhead systems (not necessarily roofs). This being the case our first alternative is to move the range to the county transfer station area, should this acreage be acquired. This area is not only currently graded with below ground access but the soil structur• is more stable than that of the currant site. The second alternative is to ebuild the range facilities on the current site but with some major regrading and roil stabilization% by soving the facility to the county transfer station adjacent to Gothard, access would be greatly enhanced. In addition to developing a regular parking facility, a major building is being proposed providing space for range officer control, a pro shop for sales/rental of also and accessories, and classroomw for hunter safety and other courses. Since the sport tends to be family oriented, areas for picnicking and children's play equipment aria nestled into a pleasant Ltmosphere of plant material and rolling mounds, kunge safety is of the utmost concern and the National Rifle Association has explicit recommendations for developing, s�intaining, and operating outdoor pistol ranges. Pathough estimates for construction range from $200 to $10,OOO per firing point, funding iaay be avRilsble from the Pittman-Robertson Actio a f*deral assistance program ov revenue bonds. GYMNASIUM/NATATORIUM/RECREATION CENTER Objective: Provide for a triple-gym gymnasium with locker roots, natatorium with x 25yd Olympic pool, and accompanying recreation centers The complexity of providing the multiple uses described is simplified by a very accommodating site and the ability to modularly combine or split the facilities. Budget phasing and "controlling rights" will affect the final outcome of the configuration. Critical to the design is direct acceusibility from Golden West and traasitions to a wide variety of recreational users that Would normally be a spare consideration, especially a competitive-quality softball complex. L•ocAting thLs complex on the bluff to the east of Huntington Lake, betwton the equestrian center and rho proposed softball complex offara the widest versatility and marketability. The addition of a civic complex as being proposed will greatly enhance the recreation services provl6ad by the City and offer tha residents another source of coussinity pride. 2 `1 •-•..ra.n.�, _ ....a...+--•a••.v..zea,q•41:1:... f.+.'iY A:. :. -'era...• .. . ., ra.r`..i!_• .. a• .•..i••1i t- wi�./..:, . .. .. :l..ri.:f':Lh7Lf'Lllfi r.%c`I:M ^Ml.r� •+•r.+w�a.• SULLY MILLER LAKE PHASE I1 — MOBILE HONE RELOCATION — R V CAMPING Objective: Provide appropriate facilities for fishing with the possibility of incorporating a tackle shop and snack. bar. Work vith mobile home relocation project and design of current mushroom farm area for future recreational vehicle camping facilities and day use picnicking. Although specific plans and construction documents are not due to be completed until fiscal year 1989/90, the area of Sully Miller lake and the immediately adjacent areas impacting the lake are a key factor in the masterplen effort. The first phase of the mobile home relocation effort has been completed. The efforts extended in the next phases o: relocation should consider the mutual and long-term benefit of design that encompasses "naturalistic" settings for future recreational vehicle camping. Another consideration is the aesthatic Impact from Within the site and as viewed from Golden West and surrounding facilities. Alterations to 0 lake edges themselves are being proponed to provide "picnic niches" in very aturaiistic surroundings with a view of the lake and "walkable" access from the future phases of mobile hoses or recreational vehicles. A fishing tackle/rental shop and parking area is being proposed for the area adjacent to Ellis, Docks or piers into the lake will provide a "lazy weekend advanture". Another alternative considered is for thu area at the corner of Golden West and Ellis when the current mobile home relocation site reverts to recreation/ leisure type of activity 3n ten to fifteen years. This corner may be the choice location for a theme restaurant that is a (1) direct correlatiou to t:bra sgwstriaa community and future . residential *states being developed south of E11is or (2) nautically oriented and over lookina'Sully Miller Lske. JAPANESE TEA HOUSE/GARDEN Objective: Evaluate the possibility, appropriateness and economic feasibility of aSister-City Japanese tea house and garden. Much study has gone into the potential location of it Japanese 'Tea Garden. Central Park would seem to lend itself very well to such a facility. Two possible locations were considered. One, in the area on the intermediary- bluff to the east of Huntington lake and the second, on the slope to the west of the literary Harden at the library. Costs of such a project depend upon size and complexity of the garden and tea house. To be feasible, it will be necessary to scale the project to our potential sites and determine what assistance can be received from outside, interested parties. In the past twelve months, the City Administrator has been coordinating with representatives of Sister City, Anjo, Japan, who have Indicated they would be willing to work with the city an the design, architecture, labor and matertals to bring to fruition a tea garden in 11CP west of the library. 'We feel that by scaling the facility to a reasonable area of approximately d quarter of an acre and using the natural landscaping now existing, this project is feasible. Even though the tea garden is not included in the recommendation, staff will be bringing this project back to Council as a separate item once negotia- tions have been finalized with Anjo. 3 '� ��, '+. }1M1'�1�,`�'., ;�zs•a-:l . •, . .c.,.,:.�,',.��.T��. +.r.:.' t - t;:3hfi''lyy5+%.�Y� � a AMPHITHEATER/PLAYHOUSE Objective: Incorporate enlargement of existing amphitheater (will be 300 capacity) and coordinate efforts with architectural consultant exploring possibility of buildLng a playhouse. At this point in the masterplan study, it is felt that the impact of an enlarged amphitheater would necessitate an overall re-evaluation of the current pedestrian and vehicular circulation systems near the library. As far as the playhouse, there is the question of appropriateness Within Central Park. It is the current recommendation of Cardona-DiLallo'-Harrington and the Community Services staff that an adequate site is not readily available to support the needs of the peripheral faci littea, is: direct access from a major arterial and sufficient parking, either by a structure or open land allocation. HUNTINGON LAM Ob ective: Provide for shoreline atabtlitation, fishing pier, and pedal boat operation dock. The impact of developing the aforementioned facilities is not directly related to the current masterplan effort since there are no recommendations being made to alter the shoreline configuration or adjacent current recreational facilities. Slated for fiscal year 1987/88, specific plane and construction documents would be very easily prepared following a re-evaluation of the necessary re-circulation system to Improve the water quality. Also at that lisle minor changes would be recommended for the pedestrian system along the east side of the lake directly at the bottom of the slope for easier security patrol. FRIS888 GOLF RELOCATION Objective: Provide re-location for or modifications to existing course if =J or recreation center/natatorium/gymnasium in proposed for bluff area. Since the best site for the recreation center/natatorium/gymnasium is proposed for the bluff area west of Golden West, the frisbee golf course will have to find a new hose. The best area for relocation of this activity is a "reverse V area that wraps its way from the Talbert parking area down and in and behind the proposed recreational vehicle camping area. This landfil l area will be appropriately graded and landscaped to provide even the best of players an awaiting coursed but with the unpradictnble settling this course may take on now very competitive challenges. 4 .._.�. _.......w.—..,.....-w••......d.t�yllaM`.•h.rc,iu•«. .. .....__..... .. r. .`. :YO ...:*4.�.•0.\1 ;.«. ':.rl:.',\Z nf.vr.at ; r. .w. w..... ..w.. «w.ry..^"�.gIYR OPEN NATURAL AREAS Objective: Analyze potential uses for projected open/natural areas. There are essentially three key "open/natural" areas within the legal boundaries of Central Park. These are (1) the current landfill area at the cornur of Cothard and Talbert, (2) the elongated area to the east of Gulden West, mouth of Talbert and north of the current mushroom farm area (future recreational vehicle camping), and (3) the very large arEa to the east of Edwards and north of Ellis, inclusive of the "midden" area known for its Indian artifacts. Due to the nature of the current .landfill area settling for the next several decades, it is the recommendation of Cardoza-DiLallo-Harrington that this area be developed as on open play area with turf, trees, and irrigations Wide spaces within that area would accommodate a family and informal group "pick-up field sports", soccer, or a "practice" area for softball teams prior to competition in the major complex to the west of Golden West. The second area along the east side of Golden West is also a former landfill area and not only has a continuous settling problems but in the lower station near the current mushroom farm, a methane gas emission concern. The upper portion of this area immediately south of Talbert has been elated for family picnic and possible major theme-oriented playgound facility. The lower portion has been considered for a gravel-type parking area in the likely event that with the future build-out of the theme playground area, day use area adjacent to the recreational vehicle site and use demand in the future frisbee golf area additional parking will be required. The recommendation for the large area to the east of Edwards and north of 19111s, inclusive of the "aatiddea" area known for its Indian artifacts, is that it remain in its "natural" state without a manicured landscape. This area is and should be utilised for the equestrian trail system. L UESTUTAN TRAILS/80LSA CHI CA LINEAR PARK LINKAGE, Ob ectivea Provide modifications to existing system relative to encyclopedia lots, Dols& Chien Linear Park, proposed road alignments, mir_den area, existing equestrian facility, proposed planning modes for adjacent residential. At this point in the analysis of the large open space dedicated to the equestrian trails, Cardona-DiLallo-Harrington is recommending adhering to the trail alignment approved in the March 1984 Equestrian Trail Masterplan Study. Contact has been made with Ron Tibbets and the staff at Orange County Environmental Agency regarding the progress being aauade on the design for the Bole& Chica Linear Park. At this time it is the mutual agreement of all concerned that' tha eventual "link" into Central Park occur at the Intersection of Edwards and Lakeview Drive. These areas will be reconsidered or altered at such time as the Ellis/Edwards "cutoff" is constructed. 5 .w+•...... ..y... .. s..\.1�MLr..f'..'U i\SSA\' )tT'.\.4i r.�ai\\`.......• �,.. ...., ..,./...1:.:4 t':f•l.:Wr�^,1C.:. ... f_ �w.•l1.fYMNi4a TTIM�>r.Yi'JM GROUP C/J4P AREA Objective: Evaluate the effectiveness and appropriateness of a group camp facility being proposed by the Public Works maintenance staff. The plan as presented to Community Services and Cardosa-DiLa1lo-Harrington by Jerry Lochmann and Daryl Smith is •nary comprehensive and articulate. Recognizing that minor adfistments prior to final construction documents will need to be made to accommodate American Camping Association regulations and a detailed user analysis, the only major area of concern is the entry/parking transition area south of the corporate yard. ATIS (or therm! playground) ONactire: Study the feasibility of incorporating a facility similar to Atlantis in Garden Grove. Information obtained from Garden Grove indicates that Atlantis Is a thriving and adventuresome facility. Depending on the land area allocation or budget constraints, an alternative type of "theme" playground could be proposed. Thin could range from the wild and exciting adventure of "Indians Jones" to exploring caves and tunnels to something more sedate as a haritago play adventure or exploring the "old west". This facLlity is being proposed for inclusion in the picnic/open area at Talbert and Colden Nest. , t' 1 6 �,rt�•r...w.w.My..w..wrY/I..y1MM.......+R�^..'+•�.M_�...w..+•.Mw r.M.Mr. _t L1 �' CITY OF HUNTINGTE'fN BEACH INTER-DEPARTMENT COMMUNICATION HUMTINGT1ylY RKH Alicia Wentworth Ron Hayden To City Clerk From Acting Libra Director Subl t REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS Date December 20, 1985 Thin is to, inform you that the Community Servicee Department has ` sent the attached letter and Request for Proposal Project I, i, Central Park Amphitheater and Project II , Construction of Theater in Central nark to the following consultants : Mr. John von Sseliski, Coate Mesa Stewart Woodard i Associates, Costa Me$A Mr .

To meet this need, City staff has prepared a plan to expand the existing parking lot by eighty-nine spaces. The expansion would also include fights that are needed to insure safety. These additional eighty-nine parking spaces would also serve for overflow parking for the library. The cost of this project is $369500. The Lummunity Services Commission voted in favor of recommending this project io Council at its September 11, 1985 meeting. FUNDING SOURCE Park Acquisition and Development Unappropriated Fund Balance. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Do not expand parking lot at this time. 2.

ANALYSIS With the construction of the new equestrian center , part or the eques- trian trail established in 1973 by grant :unds wan displaced. Thle has created concern on the part of equestrians who have horses boarded outside the park boundary. They feel they are being denied access to j the new center and are losing riding trails within the park. With the growth occurring in the city , equestrians are faced with containment , ttat only on private property , but also un city-owned land. There is a need to master plan equestrian trails within UP and to establish a policy as to how much land '_s ,to be utilized in HCP for equine use. However, this MS1Z require some time and starf. reels that an immediate solution is needed. Also, a solution must be provided concerning the displacement or a portion of the trail by tile, equestrian center to in- sure that the equestrians are provided with an identifiable , quality trail of approximately lo,000 linear feet in length. Representatives of t%e equestrian community have also raised the iceue i that they are being dented a trail through the trees in the .new aquas' `-� Irian center which was the location of the old trail.

There have been numerous meet- ings with represent ativec of the equestrian community, the Mayor, members or the City Council, the City Administrator and Mr. Milligan , lessee of the equestrian ,renter. Twa basic alternatives have evolved from those meetings : ( 1) c;hall the cit;.* underwrite the lesnee ' s lia- bility for the temporary grail and require the lesuee to relinquish property frdm his lease, or (p) Shall the city develop a, new trail that would become part of the future master plan. Several exhibits are .included to explain the issues and delineate the area, in question. The Community Services Commission randewed this approved theter at its reeommendationsrafd regular meeting ref March 30, 1.83, staff. With an established trail system, there is a definite need to mn3ri- the railing as well as the trail. Since the trail system was origi - nally developed, it has deteriorated badly . The railing needs constant repair. The city has attempted to do this maintenance with volunteers . Presently, there is no funding for city farces to do ^ this work. It is, therefore , recommended that a minimum license fee be established for all horses boarded within the city of )Jun. tington Beach. Revenue from this license fee would be used so havelimplementcd for c- nance of the horse trails and fencing. b such a fee and if Council approves the recommendation, staff will investigate the procedures of those communities and incorporate them into a resolution for Council consideration. FUNDING SOURCE; Park Acquisition and Development Fund ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Do not replace the portion of trail displaced by the equestrian center. Retain only the trails which remain and construct no additional trails until park is master planned. 2 . Allow a temporary equestrian trail around the outside perimeter or the existing equestrian center with no trail or outside fence construction and accept additional liability to the city and to ` Better Built Enterprises . 3. Allow a temporary equestrian trail around the outside perimeter or the existing equestrian center and incur cyst of construction of a trail and fencing to separate Golden West Street , the Marion property and the Frisbee golf course .

Equestrian Use in Huntington Contral Park This year, the city entered into a long-term lease for a permanent , Cirnt- class equestrian center in Huntington Central Park. The old Feynolds ' stables, which encompassed ten acreu, were expanded by a 25-acre facility, totally fenced, which will include boarding facilities, horse rental service, show arena/salen pavilion, training rings and, yltimately, a clubhouse or restauranv.. The equestrian community In Huntington Beach is concerned that development of the new equestrian center has displaced a portion of the equestrian trail which was developed under a $10 ,000 federal grant in 1976. Stich grant required the city to build the trail and maintain it thereafter. Originally , members of Trail 100, an equestrian group in the city, vol- unteered to maintain the trail and, in fact, spent considerable time depositing tree chips and other material on the trail. For some years , the city attempted to keep the trail railing repaired; however, because the original railing was not properly constructed, it has deteriorated and undergone heavy vandalism. Trail 100 memberu also worked diligently to patrol the fence to keep four-wheelers out of the park. They did a good job. The city park ranger has continued with that patrolling and hart an extensive citation program to limit access to the trails by other than equestrians. With the development of the new equestrian center, it in logical at this time to master plan the equestrian trail system from the center to the ingress and egress points where the future linear park will connect as i well as with the equestrian estates being master planned to the south of the park. The majority of land in HCP did not have a master plan. An the Commission is aware, it has worked with staff and Council for almost , three years to identify the uses that were desired by the public for 11CP. This work entailed meetings and public hearings as well as a market analysin and master plan proposal by Ultrasystems. The proposal by ultra- systema was submitted to Council and reviewed on August 17, 1981. At that time, Council approved those portions of the proposal it desired and instructed staff to proceed to develop same . The equestrian center was one of those projects approved. This Council instruction resulted in a proposal from Better Built Enterprises to expand the city's equine facil- /— ity from 10 to 25 acres on property located adjacent to Golden Went Stree.l the A.C. Marion property to the south and the Frisbee golf course to the w' north. Council approved Better Built 's proposal and contract on Octo- ber 25, 1982 .

Construction has been held up due to the exceptionally rainy weather In the past few months . As mentioned, Trail 100's concerns are for the elimination of a portion of the grant funded trail. Equestrians with horses boarded outside the park are concerned that they are being denied access to the riding trail, In addition to what they feel is a reduction in total riding area. The equestrian community had thought that the trail was. to be a permanent i trail system in HCP. In discussing this matter with staff, it was deter- mined that the grant funded trail was never considered permanent t: cPnuae the land had never been master planned. Also, portions of the trail were on land privately owned by absentee landlords. The city is endeavoring to acquire these encyclopedia lots for inclusion in Central Park. however . until the land is totally acquired , the eq-jestrians are trespassing on private in—perty . For years , the equestrians have used the open space, which is mostly agricultural or oil producing, freely. With the i;rowt1i occurring in the city, the equestrians are being faced with contaimient ! of their activity and denial or riding an private property. Hence , their f justifiable concern as to the loss of trail in HCP. Obviously , there is a need for a master planned equestrians trail in HCP as we,.l as in the whole city . The Development Services staff have been working toward that goal for many years. The new equestrian center makes the attainment of that goal more necessary. In my meetings with the equestrians , the Mayor, City Council and City Administrator, the major issue was that the trail be maintained in the equestrian center where it had criginally been. On numerous occasions, I have attempted to e:;plain that Better Built Enterprises did not desire a public trail through the equestrian facility. Mr. Milligan, President i of Better Built , is providing a trail head for access from the center to the trail system in 11CP. However, he felt that there was consldevable liability created to his operation if a trail were created through the facility. I have attached a letter from Mr. Milligan outlining his con- cerns on the matter. In addition, in diaeussions with the City Risk Manager, Ivor 01tsham, he agrees that the city would be exposed to un- neceseary liability and cost to indemnify Better Built against all Inci- dents involving a trail through that property. It is Important for Commission and Council to understand that when the grunt funded trail was built, it was approximately 1D9350 feet long ae nn Identified trail on the map. Additionally , equestrians , motorcyclists and four-wheclern created )1 ,275 feet of additional trail by riding in open fteldn. Within the last four years , we have almost eliminated rour- whoclern and motorcyclists from the park through strict enforcement. The trails created by those vehicles have been disced but were eventually recreated by the equestrians. They are currently using an additional thirty acres of land which has not been master planned far use at this time. The use of that land is not an immediate problem. I raise this issue in order to inform Commission and Council that in the park , prior to deleting the portion of trail by the equestrian center development , _. there was a total of 14,625 feet of trail. The portion deleted totaled 5,120 feet, which leaves 9,505 Peet of remaini:ig, identifiable eqvestr'i�n trail and represents a reduction or approximately 845 feet from the total number of feet allocated in the original trail. Staff is recommend- ing replacement of approximately 1, 300 square feet of trail on the nor- Community Services Commission March 30, 1983 Page Three thern side or the equestrian center between the lake and the Frisbee golf course with a turn-around area near Golden West Street. Two F'riabee golf toes would have to be moved. We are proposing that this trail be totally fenced so as to contain the horses on the trail and prevent conflicts with other users of the park, not to mention keeping houses from bolting out onto Golder West Street . Mr. M:.11igan will rence one side and the city the other. If adopted, the staff recommendation would provide riders with a trail through extensive Eucalyptus ~Tees and various terrains and elevations , all enhanving the quality of the ride. This particular portion of the trail. could become a permanent leg of the system through the parlt . It would be an equitable solution in that it not only provides the lfore- mentioned amenities, but alt3o exceeds the number of feet in the nriginal trail. This recommendation certainly limits the city's liability, meets the needs of the equestrians , provides a permanent solution , and appelars to solve a lot of problems. The alternative suggested by the equestrians would create additional problems. They have Asked to be allowed to use ube street- right-or-wny in front of the equestrian facility and a ten-toot sLrip of the center' s property which is adjacent to A.C. Marion 's property. Mr. Plilligan questior-, allowing a trail across two roadways into his center and giving street cess to run-away horses . Also, i£ ttip trail were placed in the strc- t right--oi'-way in front of the center and adjoining the highway , . fencing would be required in addition to extensive movement of earth to create Tampa for a newly installed city water vault. Once Golds" West Street it improved , this portion of the trail would be deleted , thereby negating any investment made to create the trail. :+dditiona.11y, develop- ment; of the trail adjacent to the Marion property would be on a nevere grade , requiring a cut of the grade and installation or a retaining wall and fencing to separate the trail from the Marion property. This trail would empty out onto private property, oo encyclopedia lots which the city has not yet acquired. Unlecs the city is willing to accept the liability associated with this propose: as well as the cost of building the trail, staff Feels the equestrians' auggestion should be rejected. The city could allow horses to ride on the present grade and along the front of the center to make the loop, but, we honestly reel, the city would be accepting tremendous liability. This is a policy decision that has to be made. by Commission and Council. Starr reels that any future development of trails should be based on a master plan or concept acceptable to Commi.asion and Council . We anould not spend money on a project that will have %;o be redone in the future. Or additional enneern is that as development occurn around the park and the city continues to grow, we will be ,faced with a need to separate equestrian trails and use from other park Lsers for the sake or llahilt�y.

This proposed temporary riding trail will have, a tremendous adverse affect on our planned services and activities. we will no doubt have to reevaluate some of the city requirements in our contract. We do not feel we can, in good conscience , provide horses to the general public to ride on this trail, with built-in hazards to our hor.seu and riders. The trail , as planr:ed, will create two funnels to the fast moving, heavily travaled Golden West Street. it would be only a matter of time before: a horse woule. rtin away or btalt into oncoming traffic at either the north or south side of our property. The activity► in our riding arenas would be greatly affected by the constant disturbance of trail traffic. The distractions caused by riding up and Sown this trail would create hazardous conditions within our center. The liability of any lawsuit will have to be addressed by the city.

Estimated cost for grading and fenaingt $163,000. ti ANALYSIS: i AM Xj Ti 18, 1963 meeting, the City Council authorized staff to prepare a master plan of equestrian traits for Huntington Central Perk. Staff contacted Cardoza Dll.allo Harrington, , City's contracted landscape architects, to master plan the equestrian trail utilizing the system that presently exists; and, to provide alternatives. On March 90 19840 City staff met with Equestrian Trails, Inc. President, June Transue and Trail Coordinator, Mary Bell, to discuss the alternatives proposed by staff and the landso" � architect. The cquestrian representative:( Indicated that their organization would ba satisfied wlth Alternatives "A"and "E''. They requested three it©ins: 1) A connection to the Ltnoar Park from the equ !3trIan trail; 2) AE facilities In the Huntington Central Park be compatible; and 3) 11* trail hc.., a "permanent" system. These three issues would be met under Alternatives "A"and W. 'They also Indicated that the, view points or rest areas Included by the )andscape3 architect should be omitted as the trail if, riot long enough to warrant such areas. 'rho rest areas might also attract the genera) public who would Impact the arch and create sarety hazardu for ti►e people on foot hnd on horseback. Taking the trail into and through the more activo areas (Alternatives "13" and "C") by the picnic shelter, snack bar and open play areas was a concern of staff and Commission. i Potential problems would be cmated by having the general public recreate In such close proximity to the horse trail. Also, problems could be anticipated with children running through the trail or climbing or sitting on the fence. 11in area would be impacted by too many diverse groups with potential hazards to all. i The Nature Center hss averaged over 20,000 visitor s in the past two years. Looping the i equestrian trail around that facility (A1ternativc "i.") would creme a distraction from Its } Intended purpose. Horses and Nature Center groups would not be compatible. A »umber of 4 trees dnd shruos would have to be eliminated, especially on the north side where extensive planting has been done for screening pur?osex Several asphalt paths used by pedestrians, bicyclists and service vehicles Intersect the proposed trail system, thereby creating a hazard for the equestrians.

The trail also extends to a hitching post area near "Breakfast in the Park", allowing equestrians the opportunity to ride and dine. Graded Trail preliminary cast Is $13,000. Alternative C - Provides for a 1,700 linear toot extension, completing the loop back along the linear edge of the bluff at Goldenwest; providing a very naturalistic experience. Graded Trail preliminary cost is $9,000. Alternative U - Wraps completely around the Nature Center. Staff Ceels this would also create prohlems with the location since it would p;o around the Nature Center and would involve a lot of modifications to that area. Graded 7Ytt(L preliminary cyst !s $18,000. Alternative E When and If the tornporary trail along Goldenwest and A.C. Marion's property has been removed, this alternative offers a 11000 linear t »t line to the Initial system. The trail currently constructed along Taylor Street could remain with a trail turnaround at Goldenwest. Graded Trail preliminary cost Is $6,000. 'file Trail 100 group requested the following three Items be considered In the equestrian trail proponel: 1. A connection to the Linear Park from the equestrian trail. 2. That all fac;lities In :he park be compatible. 3. That the trail be a "permanent"system. diary Sell, Trail 100 representative, stated the group Is In suplwrt of Alternatives A and R. They are concerned about maintenance costs and request that "elaborate facilities" not be In the trail system so that maintenance costs could be kept to a minimum. Staff felt the rest areas delineated on the master plan ,mould ba removed, thereby saving aofateueticn and maintenance cost3. When the ten foot cerement Is taken with tho widening of Goldenwest Street, the trail along Goldenwest (across from the Mushroom Farm) wW be removed. Staff Informed Commission that the equestrian licensing fee ordinance Is on the next Council Agenda if approved, the ordinance will institute a $25 license fee for equine. i 0470e Tile trails will be open for cross-country meets sponnered by the high school districts and other non-equine activities. BETTY KENNEDY asked where the public would be allowed to gain access to the trail system. Daryl Smith stated that the horses would have to be unloaded at the stable on Ellis, from A.C. MarIon's property or on Milligan's pror,)erty. Maybe the City should consider an unloading lot for the public to drop off horses. NORMA VANDER MOLEN felt the facility is not really a "publin" facility and has a "problem" with the fact that the: facility is not more available to tine public. TOM COOPER expressed concern about the access to the Linear Park. Ile Is concerned that there might be an exorbitant construction cost for this access. Ile felt that before he could endorse the master plan, he would need to know what the cost would be for thwt access, Staff feels the access would be some typo of overpass. GENE FARRELL stated that he would not support the master plan unless the public has aeons to the trail. Ile felt there should be some type of guarantee on the City's part, ttat the "public" can awe the equestrian trail. NORMA VANDER MOLEN felt the license fee should include residents and nonres1.dents. She is concerned that ";residents" will be the only ones supporting the maintenance of the trail Staff stated the equine ordinance will be controlled by stable owners and collected by the stable ownars only for those horses boarded within the nity limits �.

Lighting was indicated as a major need of half of the groups who play in the Fall. The survey was circulated prior to the comple- tion of lighting facilities at Gisler and Dwyer. These additional lights should alleviate much of this problem. Only one Spring group indicated lighting was a problem. With the exception of a few playorr gamea , lighted fields are only used for practice. Each group has definite boundaries and any rields developed would solely benefit the group in that geographical location, with the exception of playoff nr tournament play. Projected school district enrollments attest to the fact that the South population in Huntington Beach is expected to decline approximately twelve percent the next four years . Lower partleipa•- tion is already evident in some or the youth sports activities. Our experience indicates that the adult softball program in the community sa well as the surrounding Area, is very popular and the sports complex will provide the facility to accommodate the adult softball needs rather than organized youth groups of the community. t i • j i 1 : EXHIBIT " D r. . ... _ _�...�,•./w..w+.r•,w....+✓-....•......�..�...........�......_..........-..•......r••...•.•n.-r•ace•.:she•.e�KK.Y.1..•Iv.s�:gilw..MMita0.Y7.XS�MM;.aiRkM."""^'".^, o f"e rS R '• '^� l; AWArf orr �J •a IFUMt'I V*WAC 1:_k4t, w 11 "'; __ -._.. ......«or,Var.w.�wnY u.,aa vt'..wna.y.�aa.w.r.� ..r+.. �.. ....•�1.4i!J:•.Lfr;: .....:•:i.[..... :am;.l7y;.N,Wwi•,t.a':;��.NIYiLA a�W�►,,.fF..+_wM^'r�^""`!•'wl ell's k/ r� CITY OF wuNrINGTO" BoACH INTER•OEPARTMENT COMMUNICATI N [WWA NINAC" To Jeri Chenelle , Admin.

Moorhouse, Director, Community Services subject: Huntington Central Park Acquisition - 009,60o Matching Fund i Grant - Recreational Vehicle Park Statement of Istte, Recomnwndstion,Analysis, Funding Source, Attentive Actions,Attachments, STATEMENT OF ISSUE The State of California approved a grant for the clty for a recreational vehicle project in Huntington Central Park in July of 1!)80. That grant will expire as of June 1, 1983. A policy decision is needed by the City Council as to its desire to use the grant for e. recreational vehicle park In HCP. RECOMMENDATION Authorize staff to proceed with fulfilling requirements of the state grant by updating the appraisal of properties for a recreational vehicle park in BC?. ANALYSIS In July , 1980, the City was successful in obtaining a grant t'or construc- tion of a recreational vehicle park at the corner of Gothard and Ellis . Thia property is adjacent to the Sully VIller Lake and owned by the Ooeanview Mushroom Growers and the Sully Miller Corporation. At the same time, the Community Services Department was developing a proposed master plan of HCP which wan subsequently reviewed and updated by Ultra systems. In 1981, the City Council deleted the parcel proposed for the RV park from the HCP proposal. At that time, the city sought and obtained a transfer of the matching fund grant to apply to the property at the corner of Golden West and Elli.a which included the mushroom farm and four privately owned parcels. All of this property was placed in, a plan- ning mode study which was uubeequently reviewed by Council and acted upon. Because there has been no final decision with regard to the RV use or acquisition of land for that use, staff has been unable to proceed to meet the requirements of the hatching fund grant. The .State Department: of Parks and Recreation Land And Water Conservation Fund Project No. 06-00963 requires the city to submit appraisal and preliminary title reports to the state by June 1, 1983. These reports were done In the pact but would have to be updated and a decision made by Council as to whether staff should proceed. Failing to submit the required reports will result in the city losing the $609,600 matching fund grant, The funds would be made available to other jurisdictions. �.y...r.. -- _ .......w......,«.v.w.a..w i,a..r. ..-......«_._ .....-.�— ...n•r...in.�-.wvawV.YiYf.l'..+iW:1.:..!Lt�,•".r:AI;�YJ%(v?.r�.���� f: , i t. 10 101 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION April. 7, 1983 Page Two 5ub.1 ; Huntington Central Park Acquisition - $609,600 Matching Fund Grant -- Recreational Vehicle park With the city's matching funds, the total funding for the acquisition or property for a recreational vehicle park would arourit to $1,219,200.

Moorhouse, Director, Community Services Sect: Huntington Central Park Equestrian Trails 401 Statement of iww,Re=....wMation,Analysh, Finadins Souns.Aftwedw Action, Attechn"IS: STATEMFIiT OF ISSUE There is a need to relocate the equestrian trails that were displaced by the new equestrian center development. A complete master plan of equestrian trails for Central Purk needs to be established and a policy decision made on how much acreage in Central Park should be master planned specifically for equine use . RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Prepare and adopt a master plan of equestrian trails for HOP; 2. Authorize construction of fenced equestrian trail between the Friabee golf area and Taylor Street to ineet the temporary needs of equestrian use and relocate the displaced trails; 3. Authorize appropriation of $10,000 from Park Acquisition and Development Fund to construct rcnci.ng for the equestrian trail recommended in #2 above. 4. Authorize starf to prepare a proposed resolution establishing a horse license fee with revenue to be used for trail maintonance . ANALYSIS With the construction of the now equestrian center, part of thq eques- trian trail established in 1973 by grant funds was displaced. This has created concern on the part of equestrians who have horats boarded outside the park boundary. They feel they are being denied access to the new center and are losing riding trails within the park. With the growth occurring in the city, equestrians are faced with nontalnment, not only on private property, but also on city-owned land. 'There Is a need to master plan equestrian trails within HOP and to estaL•lish. a policy as to how much land is to be utilized in HOP for equine use. However, thiw wrill require some time and staff feels that an immediate solution is needed. Also, a solution rust be provided concerning the diaplacement: or a portion of the trail by the equestrian center to in- sure that the equestrians are provided with an identifiable, quality trail of approximately 10,000 linear reet: in length. Representatives of the equestrian community have also raised the issue that they are being denied a trail through the trees' in ;he now eques' - trian center which was the location of the old trail. TheF have recom•- no 4M . , ket. i.';, .`•, .ii;M�r. a+.li:�:.i.%;k,'.Pitiiiti,`j�i'�'��t� �I'�t'' REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION April 6 , 1963 Page Two Sub, : Huntington Central. Park Equestrian Trails mended that the city restore the trail or construct a loop going com- pletely around the equestrian center. There have been numerous meet- ings with representatives of the equestrian community, the Mayor, members of the City Council, the City Administrator and Mr. Milligan, lessee of the equestrian center. Two basic alternatives have evolved from those meetings: (1) Shall the city underwrite the lessee' s lia- bility for the temporary trail and require the lessee to relinquish pFd� dirty from his lease, or (2) Shall the city develop a new' traiil that wciiild becotii part o,^ the future master plan. Several exhibits are included to explain the issues and delineate the Area in question. The Community Services Commission reviewed this matter at its adjourned regalar meeting of March 30, 1963 , and approved the recommendations of staff. With an established trail system, there is a definite need to main- tho oailing as well as the trail. Since the trail system was origi- nally developed, it has deteriorated badly . The railing needs constant repair. The city has attempted to do this maintenance with volunteers. Presently, there is no funding for city forces to do this work. It is, therefore , recommended that a minimum License fee be established for all horses boarded within the city of Huntington Beach. Revenue from this license fee would be used solely for mainte- nance of the horse trails and fencing. Other areas have implemented such a. fee and if Council approves the recommendation, staff will invest.iga.te the procedures of those communities and incorporate them into a .resolution for Council consideration. - FUNDING SOURCE Park Acquisition and Development Find ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Do not replace the portion of trail displaced by the equestrian eentmr. Retain only the trails which remain and construct no additional trails until park is master planned. 2 . Allow a temporary equestrisri trail around the outside perimeter or the existing equestrian center with no trail or outside Tence construction and accept additional liability to the city and to Better Built Enterprises. 3. Allow a temporary Pquestrian trail around the outside perimeter of the existing equestrian center and incur cost of construction of a trail and fencing to separate Oolden West Street, the Marian property and the Frisbee golf course.

Moorhliuf aAnc . March 28, 1983 •u..xtT . Rqueetrian Use in Huntington Central Park This year, the citr entered into a long-tewrm lease for a permanent, first-. class equestrian center in luntington Central Park. The old Reynolds' stables , which encompassed ten acres , were expanded by a 25-acre facility, totally fenced, which will include boarding facilities, horse . rental service, show arena/sales pavilion, training rings and, ultimately, ,a clubhouse or restaurant . The equestrian community in Huntington Bernh Is concerned that 'deve]lopment of the new equestrian center has displaced P. portion of the equestrian trail which was developed under a $10,000 federal grant in 1978• Such grant required thr: city to build the trail and maintain it thereafter. Originally, meinbers of Trail 100, an equestrian group in the city, vol- unteered to maintain the trail and, in fact, spent considerable time depositing tree chips and other material on the trail. For some years, the city attempted to keep the trail railing repaired; however, because the original railing was not properly constructed, it has deteriorated and undergone heavy vandalism. Trail, 100 members also worked diligently to patrol the Pence to keep four-wheelers out of thu park. They 'did 'a good Job.. The city park ranger has continued with that patrolling and has an extensive citation program to limit F,caes3 to the trails by other tnan equestrians. With the development of the new equestrian center, lt .is logical at this t1se to matter plan the equestrian trail uystem from the center to the ingreas and egi1ess paints where the future linear park will. avnnedt as well as with the equestrian estates being master planned to the south of the park. The .majority of Land in HOP dill not heave .a master plan. As the Commission is aware, it has worked with Staff and Council for,almost 'three years to identify the uses that were desired by the public for HOP. ` This work entailed meeti.ngo and public .hearinga as well as a market analysis and matiter plan proposal by Ultrasystems . The -proposal -by Ultral systems was subpitt.ed to Council. and reviewed on August 17, 1981. At : that time, Council approved those portions of the proposal it desired and, instructed starf, to proceed to develop saane. The equestrian center, was one or those projects approved. Thia Council lnst tion resulted in s proposal Cram Better Built Enterprises to expand city'n equlne► facil=. tty from 10 to 215 acres on property located adj; to Oolden West Street, `tha 'A.C.

Construction has been held up due to the exceptionally rainy weather in the past few months . As mentioned, Trail 100' s concerns are for the elimination of a portion of the grant- funded trail. Equestrians with horses boarded outside the park are concerned that they are being denied i :cess to the riding trails in addition Lo what they feel is a reduction 1,. total riding area. The equestrian community toad thought that the trall was to be a permanent trail system In NCP. In dl=t3sing this matter with staff, it was deter- mined that the grant funde,i trail was never considered permanent because the land hhd never been matter planned. Also, portions of they trail were on land prf.vately owned by absentee lardloids . The city is endeavoring to acquire these encyclopedia lots for inclusion in Central Park:. However, until the land is totally acquired, the equestrians are trespassing on private property . For years , the equestrians have used the open space, which In mostly agricultural or oil producing, freely. With the growth occurring in the city, the equestrians are being faced with containment of their activity and denial of riding on private property. Hence , their ,justifiable concern as to the lose of trail in HCP. Obviously, there Is a need for a master Manned equestrian trail in HCP as well as in the, whole city . The Development Services staff have been working toward that goal for many years . The neig equestrian center makes the attainment of that goal more necessary. In ray- meetings with the equestrians, the Mayor, City Council and City Adm1histrator, the major issue was that the trail be maintained In the equestrian cejntet, where it had originally been. On numerous oeoaslons, I have attempted to explain that Better Built Enterprises did not desire a public trail through the equestrian fat:il.ity. Mr. Milligan, President of Be*tter quilt., is providing, a trail head for access from the center to the trail eystem in 11CP. However, he felt that there was considerable liability crested to his operation if a trail were created through the facility . I have: attached a letter from Mr. Milligan outlining his con- cerns on the matter. In addition, in discussions with the City Risk 1.4arnager, Ivor. Gitsham, he agrees that tho city would be exposed to un- necessary liability and eont to indemnify getter Built against: all inch dents involving a trail through that property. It is important for Commission and Council to understand that when the gratit funded trail was built, it was approximately 10,350 feet long as an identified trail on the map. Additionally, equestrian, motor'oyclists and tour-wheelers Created 4,275 feet of additional trail by riding in open fields . Within the last four years, we have almost eliminated four- wheelers and motorcyclists from the park through strict enforcement. The trails created by those vehicles have been disced but were eventually recreated by the equestrians . They are currently using an addttI onal thirty acres of 'land which hos not been master planned for,uee al. this time:. The use of that land is not an immediate problem. 17-aiee this issue in order to inform Commission and Council that in the park,, prior to deleting the portion of trail by the equestrian center developments there was a total of 14,625 feet of trail. The portion deleted totaled 5,120 feet, which leaves 9,505 feat of remaining, Identifiable 'equestrian" trail ,and represitnts a reduction of approximately E4; feet from. the total number of feet allocated in the original trail.. Staff -if) recommend- ing replacement of approximately 1.,300 square feet or trail on the nor- a� i Community Services Commission March 30, 1983 Page Three thern side or the equestrian center between the lake and the Frisbee golf course with a turn-around area near Golden West Street. Two Frisbee golf tees would have to be moved. We are pruposirg that this trail be totally fenced so as to contain the horses on the trail and i prevent conflicts, with other users of the park, not to mention keeping horses from bolting out onto Golden West Street. Mr. Milligan will ferice one side and the city the other. If adopted, the staff recommendation would provide riders with a trail through extensive Eucalyptus trees and various terrains and elevations, all enhancing the qua of.' the ride. This particular portion of the trail could become a 1:,rmanent lets of the system through the park. It would be an equitable solution in that it not only provides the afore- mentioned amenities, but also exceeds the number of feet in the original trail. Thin recommendation certainly limits the city's liability, meets the needs or the equestrians, provides a permanenv solution, and appears to solve a lot of problems. The alternative suggested by the equestrians would create addi-ional problems . They have asked to be allowed to use the street right-of-way In Front of the equestrian facility and a. ten-foot strip of the center's property which is adjacent to A. C. Marion' s property. Mr. Milligan' questions allowing a trail across two roadways into his center and giving street access to run-away horses. Also, if the trail were placed in the street right-or-way in front of the center and adjoining the highway, fencing would be required in addition to extensive movement of earth to create ramps for a newly inutalled city water vault. Once Golden West Street Is Improved, th.Ld portion of the trail would be deleted, thereby negating any investment mule to create the trail. Additionally, develop- ment or the trail adjacent tc the Marion property would be on a severe grade, requiring a out of the grade and installation of a retaining wall and fencing to separate the trail from the Marion property. This trail would empty out onto private property , or encyclopedia lots which the 'city has no:. yet acquired. �a Unless the city is willing to accept tcie liability associated with this proposal as well as the cost of building the trail, :staff feels the equestrians' suggestion should be rejected. The city could allow horses to ride on the present grade and along the front of the center to mabce the loop; but, we honestly feel, the city would be accepting tremendous liability. This Is a policy decision that has to be made by Commission and Couric: il- Staff feels that any futures development of trails should be based on a master plan or concept; acceptable to Commission and Council.. We should not spend money on a project that will have to be redone in the future.. Or additional concern is that as development occurs around the park and the city continues to grow, we will be faced with a need to separate equestrian trails and uao from other park users for the sake of liability. vam:cs A•ttaohnent : Eddie Milligan better 4 Better Built Enterprises, Inc Equestrian F.+fcffities Designed & Manufactured 701 W.

Moorhouse Director, Community Services City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Daar Mr. Moorhouse I have met with the Mayor, Councilman Kelly, the City Admin- istrator, yourself, and some equestrians on numezous occasions concerning the public riding trail. I have always stated that I would cooperate with the City Council with regard to the release of a 10' strip of land along the A.C. Marion property south to Bolden West Street. This proposed temporary riding trail will have a tremendous adverse affect on our planned services and aotivitieas. We will no doubt have to reevaluate some of than city requirements in our contract. We do not feel we can, in gmd conscience, provide horses to the general public to ride on thin trail, with built-in hazards to our horses and riders. The trail, as planned, will create two funnels to the fast moving: heavily traveled Golden West Street. It would be only a mattar of titm before a horse would run away or bolt into oncoming traffic at either the north or south side of our property. The activity in our riding arenas would be greatly affected by the constant disturbance of trail traffic. The distractions caused by riding i up and down this trail would create hazardous conditions within our center. The liability of any lawsuit will have to be addressed by the city. The city will have to' indenu,ify us and our operation against any lawsuit which may occur by the location of this temporary public trail. Sincerely, Better Built nterprises, Inc. Pb Eddie J.

Thompson, City Adininistra tX40 Prepared by: Vincent G. Moorhouse, Directors Community Services Subject: Huntington Central Park Sports Complex Statement of Issue, Recommendation, Analysis, Funding Source,Alternative Actions, Attachmentmet/ STATEMENT OF ISSUE City Council has approved the development of a sports complex in Huntington Central Park. There is a need for Council to decide if such complex will be developed and operated in house or by private enterprise. RECOMMENDATION Authorize staff to formulate a request for bid proposal for the private development of a sports complex in Huntington Central Park. ANALYSIS In August 1981, the City Council approved five recreation projects within Iuntington Central Perk: expand the shooting range , develop an equestrian center, a sports complex and a YMCA facility , and include fast food operations where compatible. The shooting range agreement with the Police Officers ' Association is in its last four years. The City Administrator is presently negot+ating with the Association con- cerning this facility. The YMCA and the city have entered into a long- term, lease agreement for the development of a YMCA facility which should be completed and open to the public in the early part of 1985. The equestrian center lease has been approved by Council and the center Is in construction. The i'ast food concessions will be developed at such time as there 13 a need. Of major concern at this time is a policy decision on the sports com- pinx. The primary issue is the availability of funding for this project. Due to an aggressive park development program in the past three years and a slow economy which has resulted in a considerable reduction in Park Acquisition and Development Funds , the city at this time does not have the $1 million, to build a sports complex. The Community Services Department has been. approached by two private fiiana interested in developing and operating a sports complex on a Tong-term contract. If developed by the private sector, the city would realize an annual Income of $150,000 from the sports complex. An estimated $200,000 per year in maintenance costs would be eliminated and the total cost of development- would be borne by the private developer. Such developer, in turn, would have the opportunity of making a profit, amortizing his investment over the term of the lease and, at the end of such lease, the total facility would revert to the city. � Mp iA1 i REQUEST FOR CITY COV:�CIL ACTION February 233, 1983 Page Two Subj : Hunzington Central Park Sports Complex In order to allow the private sector to operate such a facility , the city would probably have to grant certain concessions, such as, night lighting, controlled commercial advertising around the field, and consumption of fool and alcoholic beverages in a controlled envwron- merit . On the other hand, if Council desirer, the city to develop and operate the sports complex when funding is available, the city would realize ! approximately $219,000 net profit a year. Presently, the city oper- ates one of the rest softball programs in the county, if not the utate. The city is recognized as a lender in this field. It in felt , that the city could very well operate such a program at the sports I complex and make u good profit. The primary decision concerning the ` city' s operation of the facility is the willingness of Council to allow the Park Acquisition and Development- Fund to accrue certain }' monies and to place a high priority on the project. Before the city expends design money for the facility, this major policy decision must be made. Staff has formulated a five year park development program (Exhibit "A") . It in estimated that approximately $6.7 million will be needed In the next five years to complete this program, which doer not Include purchase of approximately 24 acres known as the mushroom farm property (estimated value : $6 .7 million). Based on the present building trends and projections for development through 1987 , esti- mated income will be $6.7 million. Therefore, all Indications show that if the city were to develop the sports complex, funds would not be available for such development before 1988. An alternative would be to delay other park projects to make funds available for the sports complex . Past experience has shown that such an approach has not been acceptable to residents who have waited several years for development of a neighborhood park. Private Development Advantages -- $1 million savings in development cost -- $40,000 savings if developer is required to construct parking lot -- $200,000 savinga in maintenance per year -- $150,000 income to city per year City► Development Advantages -- Control of development , operation and use of facility $219,000 annual income over expenses : Softball Leagues $490,000 eConceasiona 50,0.00 Sub Total $51100000 Less Expenses - 21LOOO (Officials & Maintenance) NET $219,000 01ncome based on $500,000 gross sales at 10 percent return. Concee- sionaires will develop at own expense. 1 ors /1 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION February 23, 1983 Page 'Three Subj : Huntington ,Cbntral Park Sports Complex I FUNDING SOURCE j Private developer; Par:c Acquisition and Develop..ment Fund ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1 .
