City of Hermosa Beach -- 03-25-97
PARK IMPROVEMENTS: HERMOSA VALLEY PARK
Recommendation
It is recommended by the Parks, Recreation and Community Resources Commission that Council:
Background
With the UUT fund balance of over $1.6 million, the Parks, Recreation and Community Resources Commission selected a subcommittee (Koppel/Dunbabin) to identify pressing capital improvement needs in our park and recreation facilities. These recommendations were approved by the Commission at their February 19, 1997 meeting.
In order to ensure that the Greenbelt remained the top priority for these funds, the Commission forwarded and Council subsequently approved an allocation of $300,000 for the Greenbelt improvement project which is currently in the design phase.
Analysis
In order of priority, the Commission recommends improving the following park and recreation facilities:
The Commission advises that each of the facilities be master planned to serve a unique function in the City. That is, parks would be specialized to meet certain community needs (e.g., Clark Field as a sports complex, Valley Park as a passive picnic park) and future improvements would be geared as such.
To that end, a list of recommended improvements for Valley Park has been identified by the Commission to include the following: VALLEY PARK IMPROVEMENTS
As many capital needs in the parks have been deferred through the years, the Commission and staff look forward to expediting these improvements in order to obtain the best use of these funds and to provide our park system with the attention it needs and deserves.
Fiscal Impact: None
