Source: Belinda Smith 335-1255 ATTESTED September 25 , 2001 Orig. Dept. Community Development JOHN SWEETEN, CLERK OF cc: County Administrator THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Auditor-Controller AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR IBY , DEPUTY i I I I I I i i I I BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS It is the policylof the County to utilize park dedication funds to meet local park needs. This action is consistent with that policy. Ambrose Park is a 15-acre community park located at 125 Memorial Waylin the unincorporated community of Bay Point. The park includes a swimming pool, basketball and tennis courts and is within the Ambrose Recreation and Park District service area, and serves the entire community of Bay Point. Improvements at Ambrose Park include replacement of playground equipment, benches and picnic tables. The playground equipment will meet American with Disabilities Act Standards. Renovation of the playground will increase overall park use, improve safety and bring it up to current code. Improvements to the Ambrose Community Center located at 3105 Willow Pass Road include the installation of lighting in the parking lot to improve safety at the facility. Ambrose Community Center is extensively used for a variety of purposes including lunch for seniors, youth recreation, municipal advisory council meetings, and other types of community activities. Both projects are consistent with the use of park dedication fees for renovation and improvement pursuant to Division 920 Park Dedication of the County Zoning Ordinance. The total cost of the projects is $88,504. Park assessment funds will be used for park maintenance. i It has been the practice of the County, when responding to requests for park dedication fees, to review park plans, capital improvement plans, business plans or other planning documents to ensure that facilities will be maintained, funding sources and costs are identified, and improvements are consistent with the needs of the community. Other entities such as the Kensington Police Protection and Community Services District and the San Ramon Fire Protection District have prepared and submitted plans as a condition of reimbursement. I The Ambrose Recreation and Park District currently does not have a comprehensive business plan for capital improvement and maintenance for Ambrose Park or Ambrose Community Center. Asa condition of funding, the Ambrose Recreation and Park District shall be required to prepare, at their own cost, a five-year business plan for Ambrose Park and Community Center within nine months of receiving park dedication funds. Technical assistance can be provided by the Community Development Department for the preparation of the business plan. Patti J. Lambert, General Manager of the Ambrose Recreation and Park District has agreed to this requirement. i I i I I I I i I I I I I I I I I
