BACKGROUND: On September 10, 1992 the Parks and Recreation Commission convened a Task Force workshop for the Sports Park Master Plan. Seventy-five people attended the meeting including various representatives from youth and adult sports organizations, neighborhood associations and interested individuals. Those attending the meeting broke into 15 groups of five. Each group developed and set priorities for two lists of concerns. One list included desired programs and facilities for the park and one list identified park site constraints and opportunities. After gathering input from the Task Force, the Master Plan architect has been assembling technical information from City Departments. These Departments include the Community Development Department, Field Services- Di -,-inion, Ena_ineerinc Division , Police Departmen t and Corlmur.i `t_ Services Department. Schoer epreser, -:�G -:�i'Task on the 'ask Force are Donna Burt f roa -he Superintenden _ Office and Bill Teter f ron the District's Maintenance and Opera ions Department. Ms. Bur"- attended urtattended the first Task Force meeting. At the meeting she provided a status report on the progress on the school design. The City `s design firm interviewed Mr . Teter regarding input for the Sports Park. Both are on the Sports Park Task Force mailing list and have received all communications sent to date. The architect and staff are also coordinating the master plan with the current planning project for the neighboring elementary school. Randy Westrick represents the City on the School Planning Committee. Representatives from various City Departments and the City's architect have made presentations to the School Planning Committee when needed. Planning for the school is in the conceptual stage. The architect has also met with various potential park user groups to gather information on specific program and facility needs they may have. These groups also provided demographic data on their groups. The information received has included the number of participants in their programs, the types of facilities needed and the locations where they currently operate their programs. The project architect is currently taking the information developed and drafting a Design Development Report and alternate site plans for the Sports Park. These documents are anticipated to be available for Task Force review within the next 30 days. A copy of the project schedule and a map of the site is attached for the City Council's information. Please note a change on the Project Schedule. When the Master Plan design contract was approved, the City Council asked that the process be accelerated. For this reason the City Council will be asked to adopt the Design Development Report and approve the Preliminary Site Plan simultaneously. Staff will continue to provide the City Council with periodic updates on the progress of the plan. Rand estrick" Rec tion Supervisor Susan M.
