Recommendation:
Staff recommend that Parks and Recreation Commissioners report their observations and experiences with their assigned parks in accordance with the decision by the Commission in April 2024.
body
Background:
The Parks and Recreation Master Plan Goal 1.2 (Planning) is to maintain and improve existing facilities, parks, trails, and open spaces. In October 2022, the Commission assigned parks to each commissioner to report their observations and experiences with their assigned parks throughout the year, with a more comprehensive update April of each year.
In accordance with this decision, reports will be given by each commissioner.
Analysis:
Each commissioner will provide feedback in the form of a presentation (visual presentation with photos) to document and share their experience with each assigned park and discuss consideration for prioritizing maintenance needs and improvements on an annual basis each April. Scheduling of presentations in April ensures that all feedback is issued prior to the expiration of terms, which occur in May every two years.
Assignments were issued and will be presented in the following order:
1. Sunset View Park and Hilltop Park - Commissioner Kiran Gidwani
2. Reservoir Park and Signal Hill Dog Park - Commissioner Linda Edwards
3. Raymond Arbor Park and Hillbrook Park - Commissioner Pam Dutch Hughes
4. Signal Hill Park, Heritage Point Park, and Calbrisas Park - Vice Chair Tim Anhorn
5. Discovery Well Park and Panorama Promenade - Chair Caroline Kiss-Lee
