CC 20161101 04 Traffic Circulation & Safety Issue Adjacent to Del Cerro ParkRANCHO PALOS VERDES CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: 11/01/2016 AGENDA REPORT AGENDA HEADING: Regular Business AGENDA DESCRIPTION: Consideration and possible action to address traffic circulation and safety-related issues on Park Place adjacent to Del Cerro Park. RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION: (1) Review and consider implementing options and direct Staff to return with details on their implementation. FISCAL IMPACT: None Amount Budgeted: N/A Additional Appropriation: N/A Account Number(s): N/A ORIGINATED BY: Nicole Jules, PE, Deputy Director of Public Works REVIEWED BY: Michael Throne, PE, Director of Public Works APPROVED BY: Doug Willmore, City Manager'.` 1 ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: A. Del Cerro Park Program of Utilization (page A-1) B. Del Cerro Park Quitclaim Deed (page B-1) BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: At the September 6, 2016, City Council meeting, during the discussion of the Del Cerro Park update, the City Council directed staff to explore options to address the issues of traffic circulation, access and safety along Park Place adjacent to Del Cerro Park. Park Place is experiencing the unintended consequences from the deluge of visitors to the preserve and the traffic and parking issues that have arisen with the sharp increase in preserve use over the recent years. The circulation, access and safety issues have now focused on Park Place as Park Place is the only access road that leads to the 17 public parking spaces at Del Cerro Park. 1 Problem Description: With the ever increasing demand to access the Nature Preserve, traffic circulation and parking continues to be a challenge for the residents that live on Park Place. The issues include: No available on -street parking for residents of Park Place and their guests. When the City established red -curb restrictions on Park Place to accommodate emergency vehicles and improve traffic flow, all of the on -street parking was removed, resulting in no on -street parking of vehicles along the street. Constant stream of traffic entering Park Place seeking available parking at the 17 spaces in Del Cerro Park. Most of the property underlying the 17 parking spaces are not part of the street right of way but, rather, part of Del Cerro Park. Parking at these 17 spaces are governed by Municipal Code Section 12.16.030 which states "No person shall be or remain in any park or municipal building at any time between one hour after sundown and one hour before sunrise..." Continuous after-hours activity in the Park and Preserve. It has been observed by the residents in this area that night-time activities in the park and Preserve are a regular occurrence and safety/security is a problem. Possible Options: In an effort to address the concerns raised by the residents in this area, the following options (or any combination thereof) are available for the City Council's consideration. Staff held two public meetings with representatives of Park Place, Del Cerro, Burrell Lane, Island View and Valley View to discuss the issues in depth and potential solutions 2 to the problems. Potential solutions are grouped into Recommended and Not Recommended categories based on the viability of the option. 9 RECOMMENDED OPTIONS Option Description Pros Cons No. Signage 1 Establish Time-limited (2- • Prevents long-term parking and Creates a higher turn -over rate HR) parking at Del Cerro possibly creating more parking resulting in increased traffic on Park opportunities Park Place 2 Restrict Overnight • Eliminates any parked vehicle • Does not address circulation Parking on Crenshaw on Crenshaw Blvd overnight issue on Park Place Blvd possibly reducing after -hour .

These options are straight -forward solutions that can be implemented with little to no delay or difficulty. Options 8 through 11 are options that will require approval from external organizations and/or require large capital expenditures that will need to be vetted through the CIP development and budget process. In particular, Options 9 and 10 pose difficulty with implementation due to restrictions imposed by the National Park Service (NPS) and the Program of Utilization (POU). See Attachments A & B. Both Del Cerro Park and Upper Pt. Vicente Park were granted to the City as Federal surplus property through the Department of Interior. The NPS monitors the City's adherence to the POU and therefore is the approving agency for any changes to the property and subsequent amendments to the POU. The POU governs the land use for both properties. In previous interactions with the NPS for activities at Upper Point Vicente Park, the NPS expressed that the City would need to address the unauthorized uses, primarily the farm and the helipad, before it would consider amending the POU. It is important to note that the residents in this area expressed a strong desire to entertain Options 8 through 11, as they feel these are the best options that will directly address the problems of traffic circulation and safety/security.

The report on pos- sible reuse possibilities prepared for the City of Rancho Palos Verdes and funded by the Economic Development Administration is included in the Appendix of this application and provides more de- tail on the physical setting. 1. Soil Conditions The NIPS site is composed of two, soil types, Altamont Clay loam and Altamont clay adobe. Both types have a relatively low bearing strength, and exhibit ad sequently, both are somewhat uns structures or dense development, slopes of 10% or more. 2. Slope Conditions itable for support or high-rise especially when associated with Most of the mainNIKE site falls within two slope.classes: (a) 0-10% slope and (b) 10-25% slope. The first slope category, 0-.10S, is suitable for development. The second category presents :.. problems for construction and environmental protection: water run- off is dl:efi.cult to control, grading cuts must be more extreme, and so forth. As noted above, when Altamont clay loam and Altamont cls adobeare asg_oo aced with slopes exceed s 10%, soa z� n ab- -i--Ii+v hc_r-rimt4A a. nrnh1 am _ Three major parts of the main site have slopes of less than 10% and therefore are suitable for development. The NIKE site ad- ministration buildings are located in one -of these areas and the rifle range in another. It is also important to note that portions of the main NIKE ' site are "sea cliff" hazard areas, as designated by the General. Plan and the Southern Coastal Zone Commission, The Commission has designated lands to be in this hazard category if they are located above a 20t slope line drawn from the coastline. According to Commission standards, these areas should not be used for develop- ment unless a detailed study of -the specific area reveals that it is suitable and safe for development. This area is not., however, in the portion being requested by the City in this application. The upper 4.49 acre portion is generally level, with the ex- isting structures located on top of a terrace formation. 3. Hydrology The soil types of the site have low permeability and porosity. Therefore, control of rain runoff and erosion must be consldexed. A-11 0-4/03/01.-13:26 FAX 1 415 744 4043 NPS PWR PGSO U013 9. 4. Landslide Potential Approximately 1.5 miles east of the main site is an area which is an active landslide, Portuguese Bend. The NIKE site itself is considered to be an area of "moderate ground response" characteristics. Although areas in this category are not expected to experience landslides or liquefaction, City and County stand- ards recommend that seismic and soil reports be prepared.for such an area prior to high-cost, high -occupancy, or. critical use develop- ment. 5. Wildlife and Plant 'Habitat Considerations The Southern Coastal Zone Commission and the City have iden- tified wildlife and plant habitat areas for protectioh and presenta- tion. That portion of the main site which is on the ocean gide of - Palos Verdes arrive falls within a "Class I Priority" zone. The. habitat *types deemed worthy of protection are the tidal pool areas, the coastal sagebrush, and the seacliff zones. The area on the inland side of Palos Verdes Drive is generally covered by vegeta- tion which is not considered endangered but is worthy of protection in its natural state. 6. Location and Surrounding Land Use Consideration Generally, the land continuous to the main NIKE site has not .4 been densely developed. The site is bordered on the southwest by a Coas�_ Guard Station which operates a lighthouse and a radio facility. It is bordered on the south by a strip of coastline about 300 feet wide which is owned by the Los Angeles County De- partment of Beaches; this strip is -used as a fishing access route from the top of the sea cliff, which is 150-200 feet above sea level', down to the beach below Palos Verdes Drive. The land directly to the east of the main site is occupied by the Salvation Army training school and headquarters and that to the southeast by Marineland, a commercial reareational'facility, now owned by Twentieth Century Fox Corporation. A portion of the northern border of the site adjoins land developed for single- fajaily homes and the Golden Cove shopping area.. The remainder of the northern border is contiguous to undeveloped land. The upper site -is bounded by -a single family residential area to the east and vacant land, zoned for single family residential use, on all other sides. i. Transportation Facilities The main site is bisected by Palos Verdes Drive, one of the major arterial roads serving the Palos Verdes Peninsula., This. four-lane,road with divider strip is a proposed scenic highway and also the route'o,f,a proposed bikeway. The arterial provides spectacular open vistas over the Pacific Ocean at numerous points. A-12 04/09/01 13:27 FAX 1 415 744 4049 NPS PWR PGSO 0 014 .. 10. �.�.1 A traffic count made in 1973 measured a total 24-hour traffic volume of about 98.00 vehicles. The peak hour traffic registered 877 vehicles. The main site is served by a second major arterial, Hawthorne Boulevard, which intersects Palos Verdes Drive only a few hundred feet north of the site. Hawthorne Boulevard is a four -lane road with a 24-hour traffic volume of about 10,000 vehicles at a point near the site. The peak hour volume is about 1000 vehicles. Thus, Palos Verdes Drive and Hawthorne Boulevard at present provide adequate automobile access to the site. As is true of the Log Angeles area as a whole, there is no "mass transit" service to the site. The upper site is served by a major arterial, Crenshaw Boils yard. This arterial stops, however, at the site entrance and cannot be extended in the foreseeable future due to the active landslide area to the south. r"+ 8. Existing Structures At present there are six major buildings on the main NIKE site. The'site has additional facilities associated with its former military use, including underground missile storage silos and at- tendant fuel, testy and assembly areas. There are also pre -World War IT shore gun emplacements, Coast Guard radio antennas, and miscellaneous activity areas related to the requirements ,of a NIKE installation. Lastly, on that part of the site west of Palos Verdes Drive there is, as -noted above, a rifle range. • Almost the entire site is bounded with chainlink fence. The upper site contains five major buildings and served as a radar control station as part of the NIKE base facilities. The facilities are situated on top of a knoll having a precipitous slope to the southwest and facing the ocean and are fenced with chainlink fence. Figures 3, 4, and 5 show the main and upper sites with existing buildings (buildings are further described in the Appendix, by number). A-13 NeO3/01 13:27 FAX 1 415 744 4043 NPS PWR PGSO IM015 11. NEED A. Existing and Proposed Facilities Recreational activity areas in Rancho Palos Verdes include sites which have been sett aside or are proposed for either active or passive use. These sites are structured to various degrees to allow spec;.fic site activities to take place. The following groups recreational facilities into active rec- reational areas and passive recreational areas. This grouping was utilized in order to most accurately reflect the intensity and type of site use provided by an individual: facility. A fur- ther breakdown within active/passive groundings organizes recrea- tional facilities under the level of government which controls.- and.. operates the. facility. ' 1. Active Recreational Areas Ye recreational facilities include 205 acres acres of that is a.Count o f Consequently, there is presently only one sma 1 developed community park. The total ac- reage figure does not include a significant amount of recreational areas supplied by Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District 1"`•. facilities. It is difficult to calculate the acres supplied by * existing and proposed school sites. Prior to incorporation of the City, the County did not require parkland or fees to serve new development and residents were forced to rely on the use of school facilities. a. Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District Facilities Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified school District is the largest supplier of public active recreational facilities within the City. The School District provides these facilities for many age levels in the form of open play areas, paved court areas, gymna- siums, etc. Tennis courts are available on a first-come, first-- served basis. All other activities, such as baseball and foot- ball, must be arranged in advance. It call be assumed that inter- mediate and high school sites contain facilities which fulfill the needs of young adults and adults, while elementary schools provide recreational activities designed for the young. The city is operating a summer program at Miraleste Pool and constructed tennis courts at Miraleste High School under agreement with the School District, b. Los Angeles County Facilities Los 'Verdes Golf Course is'a fully developed 1.65 acre site which is operated by the County. This facility contains a'18 hole, par 32 course with associated facilities (clubhouse, banquet facil- ities, coffee shop, lounge, pro shop, two comfort stations, locker and shower rooms, and parking for 300 Gars).

Rancho Palos Verdes Facilities Rancho Palos Verdes Park RY4K MAX This fully developed 11 acre City park contains highly structured activity areas. These consist of sports activities, children's play apparatus, picnic facilities, concession potential, and a recreational activity building. Recreational programs are provided at the park activity building, These programs are de- signed to offer activities for a wide range of age groups (3 years to senior citizen) and are presently operating at full capacity. Crestmont Park n �sE-rAex • Crestmont Park is a 29 acre site which fronts on Hawthorne Boulevard between Verde Ridge Road and Locklenna Lane. This site' is one of three sites that has been declared surplus by the Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District. The purchasing of this site by the City will take place over a five year period and is planned to be developed into active ei hborhoad ark. Facilw ity development may in.itLilly be provx a by private organizations in order to eliminate financial burdens that would usually fall on the community. No'plaxis have been developed. 2. Passive Recreational Areas a. Los Angeles County Facilities Friendship Park This 123 acre park site of which 97 ar_res are within the City, is on the eastern boundary of Rancho Palos Verdes, just, north of Twenty-fifth Street. Designed use capacity of this park is approximately 1000 persons, with access being obtained from out- side the City, off Ninth Street. The purpose of Friendship park is to provide a public facility which will give upland recreation- al usage near shoreline areas. Development plans call for con- struction of moderate day -use facilities, various scenic vista points, a nature trail, and minimal landscaping. The southwest corner of the park is designated as a landslide hazard. Shoreline Park Shoreline Park consists of a 53 acre park which lies adja- cent to the eastern boundary of the City, between the shoreline and Twenty-Fif+,,h street. Preliminary development plans propose light day use facilities. Abalone Cove This Park includes 82 acres, located along the south side of PalosVerdes• Dr ve' ouE%'�ietwean• Sea Cove and Peppertree Drives. The partially developed beach area park was only recently ac- quired by the County and one portion opened to the public :the summer of 1975. A-15 04/03/9.1--13:28 VAX 1 413 744 4043 NPS PWR PGSO f�J017 13. This facility will be primarily a nature study area, rather than a high density bathing beach. The only improvements have been reinforcing and modification of existing improvements (paddle tennis courts, parking lots, picnic areas, associated buildings, and infrastructure systems) where they needed repair or we4e below standards, and the installation of four portable lifeguard stations. The headlands and other tidal reef areas will be closed at minus tides except to guided or monitored walks in special, environmental corridors. Point Vicente Fishing Access Point Vicente Fishing Access lies on the ocean side of Palos Verdes Drive South, between Point Vicente Lighthouse and Mariheland.

Peninsula has been one of the fastest growing areas in Los Angeles County; its population has doubled in each decade from 1940 to 1970. By 1970, the population bf the Penin- sula had reached nearly 65,000, having increased at an annual rate of 8.1% during the 1960s. The bulk of this growth occurred in the unincorporated County area of the Peninsula,, including the adjacent area to the east near Western Avenue which had an increase during the decade from 14,453 persons in 1960 to over 40,000 in 1970. The three incorpokated communities of the Penin- sula experienced slower growth during this period and accou:zted for a combined population of 'approximately 22,000 persons by- 1970. A-16 -- . ........................:.... 14. Since 1970 there has been a marKed slowdown of growth on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Due to declining in -migration to Los Angeles County overall, economic downturns, and more restrictive growth policies on the Peninsula, population growth for the Penin- sula declined to 3.0 percent annually during the 1.970-1973 period. Population growth was down significantly in each Peninsula city and most significantly in the unincorporated County area, which had a decline in annual growth rates from over 11 percent in the 1960s to 3.8 percent in the early 1970s. Rancho Palos Verdes had A population of 37,800 persons (esti- mated by the Los Angeles Regional Planning Commission) as of the date of its incorporation, Se tember 1973. The estimated 1960 pop-' ulation of the area which is now incorporated into Rancho Palos i Verdes was approximately 1.0,000 persons, indicating nearly a four-' fold increase in 13 years. As in the rest of the Peninsula, pop--- ulation growth has slowed considerably since 1970, dropping from 13 ,percent annually during the 1960s to 3.2 percent in the early 1970s. For the future, the expectation of continued growth is re- flected in population and housing growth projections for the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The demand potential 'for residential housing in Rancho Palos Verdes is expected to increase 2.5% on an average annual basis from 1970-1990. These estimates reflect demand po- tential considered in light of the amount ofIland which will be '"'•• available for development of housing, and in light of public poli- cy considerations. Households in the Peninsula area are significantly larger than in most communities in Los Angeles county. in 1970, average household size for the Peninsula was 3.75 members, compared to 2.83 persons per household in Los Angeles County as a whole. Larger household sizes are typical of suburban areas with large families, limited rental housing, and fewer non -family households. Household size in Peninsula communities has remained fairly stable in recent years. Like most growing suburban' -areas, Rancho Palos Verdes is characterized by a high proportion of children under 20 years of age and parents age 30 to $4. Correspondingly, there is a rela- tively low proportion of persons over 65 living in the area. Forty-five percent of the population of Rancho Palos- Verdes is under 20 years of age; nearly 42 percent is between the ages of 30 and 54; and only 2.5 percent is over 65 years of age. Resi- dents of Rancho Palos Verdes are on average slightly younger than Palos Verdes Peninsula residents as a whole. The median age of Rancho Palos Verdes residents is 28.8 years, compared to 29.9 years for all Palos Verdes Peninstla residents. incomes in Palos Verdes peninsula communities were substan- t-ially higher than Los Angeles County averages in both 1960 and 197b. -Median family income for .the Peninsula rose from $13,170 in 1960 to $24,930 in 1970, a percentage increase of 81 percant. A-17 04/03/01 13:28 FAX 1 415 744 4043 NPS PWR PGSO [a 019 Family income of Rancho Palos Verdes residents Was slightly lower, than that of other Palos Verdes community residents in both 1960 and 1970. Median family income in Rancho Palos Verdes in- creased 73 percent during the decade to $21,603 in 1970. The highest income area on the Peninsula was Rolling Hills, with a median family income of $36,379 in 1970. There are two aspects to the demand for recreational and open space.. First, there is the regional demand, generated by the pop- ulation of the greater Los Angeles area. Regional demand relates to major park and recreational areas which offer the visitor an opportunity for a variety of recreational experiences. With the rapid disappearance of the supply of public open space in the Los Angeles area and, at the same time, the demand increasing, an im- balance between demand for and supply of recreational area is evi- dent throughout the area. In contrast, there is a local demand for recreational and open space, which is generated by thi popu- lation of the Palos Verdes Peninsula and the City of Rancho Palos Verdes in particular. The to elates to the need for areas for passive activ tv as well as active recreations areas such as ball fields, tennis courts, etc., and other types of facilities. As indicated in the prev'lous section, approximately 176 devel- oped acres are available for active recreational activity (exclu- sive of school sites). Since 165 acres of this are a golf course, only 10 acres can be considered a developed community park. Using the generally accepted standard of four acres per 1000 population �--' for local needs, an existing deficit, with an existing population of nearly 42000, of over 150 acres is evident. While this does not include the use of school sites as recreational areas, which would -tend to reduce the deficit, it also presumes that the cur- rently undeveloped County facilities adjacent tb and within Rancho Palos Verdes will be developed to planned levels. Currently the General Plan of Rancho Palos Verdes provides for an additional 1,710 acres for residential development, and approxi- mately 8000-9000 additional people. Utilizing the same standard for future needs, another 40 acres will be needed in addition to the existing deficit. �L 4 CeXtW ilization of the 4.49 acre upper site and approxi- mate y pproxi- matelY 6.6 acres of tFie x side i more aG ive rec- �.�mtnriSTh�Rnol'� , res lona ac 1 :3 WOIl eglri o overcome the curewn eficit an to meet the future nee s o the City. The additional 68.1 acres of proposed passive on.is based upon both the need for additional open space as well as con sideration of environmental factors associated with this portion o the site. As in11 i 1 Gated in the environmental assessment of the site (see Appendix), tk�e sensitivity of this portion of the site dictates a low level of development. • W4.103101 13:29. -FAX 1 415 744 4043 NPS PWR PGSO 01020 The particular sites chosen for open space and recreation land would provide needed activity areas for the resident popu- lation. Their location in the western. portion of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, in and adjacent to the coastal zone along the Pacific, would provide recreation areas in proximity to a large portion of the resident population. The anticipated volume of use of sites would be Limited b,nsqe on the senstiyitq of the anditsei_f-- t e potential active recreational area at the main site might eventually have annual volumes at full development of 60-,000, significantly less for the open space areas., and 30,000 for the upper neighborhood site. An identified need of the current and future -recreation pro- gram is for building space for recreation classes and organized group meetings. At present, Rancho Palos Verdes City park has one building which is used for this purpose, plus staff offices. This facility is small and is used to capacity. There are many community groups seeking space for their activities. . Some wquld be'will,ing to donate time and money to the City to provide space for cooperative use. There are no usable structures on that portion of the main site for which applIgation is being. made. The upper site contains five main structures. One of these can be eliminated from poten- tial use due to its type of construction. The other four struc- tures could provide space for recreation programs and group meet- ings, compatible with the concept of a neighborhood park facility. ''rhe need exists,. but the major question is the suitability of the particular structures and costs of renovation and maintenance.

As can be seen by examination of the Re -use report Cin the Appendix), al- ternative uses of the site have been examined with the full partici- pation of other interested public agencies in mind. It appears that the best "mix" of uses for the site would be as an adminis- trative site for a number of public agencies with.the open space and recreational portions being administered by the City of Rancho Palos Verdes and Los Angeles County. Perhaps the single most important resource gelating to the site and its vicinity are the superb views to the site and panoramic vistas from it. Point Vicente and the site of the proposed Civic Center are significant focal points which are highly visible from a number of vantage points in the surrounding area. in addition, these focal points afford excellent 2700 "view sheds" of the coastline and ocean. The point will offer exceptional views of surrounding marine habi- tats, surface geology,'and additionally, vantage points to view the annual migration of the Californii Gray Whale. views to the site are of considerable importance because these focal points are architectural features which tend to focus viewer attention from a variety of view locations along major -public routes and lands. Because of these considerations as well as the recommended designa- tion of Palos Verdes Drive as a scenic corridor and highway, visual .qualities of proposed development should be compatible with local characteristics and should take advantage of, but not obstruct, views from nearby vantage points.

The.major access point to the main site will continue in its pre- sent location from Hawthorne Boulevard.

The portions of the main site proposed for recreational and open space use by the city do not include existing physical improve- mentw of use and would require demolition. This includes several gatehouses or control stations, theatre building (T-8), generator building (S-201), kennels,, and chainlink fence. The vast missile storage and launching area present a still unsolved problem. The ground level concrete area will lend itself to providing a visfa The undercrround area r vid c e r ati se, but no ng is proposed at this time, on the other hand, these unde- cround areas maw need to be,permanently sealed off. The upper site of 4.49 acres contains structures and facilities associated with its foxmer role as an Integrated Fire Control (IFC) Center. The recreational uses proposed will leave the existing topography and much of the existing vegetation intact. Further- more, the low level of outdoor use by these activities will not be threatened by adverse geological conditions. Finally, these ;�- activities will, if the proper landscape design is instituted, en- Nance the visual quality of the area. Four of the existing build- ings might be suitable for use for recreation programs and meeting rooms. The City would like to keep the flexibility of further evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of utilizing some or all of the four buildings and the platform or of demolishing all of them and making the site totally passive. The guard house, small storage bdilding, building S-310, and the chainlink fence would be removed. The upper site contains a joint use access easement. This easement is not incompatible with the proposed park use. The existing access drive would be continued. A-21 64'03/01 14:30 FAX 1 415 744 4043 NPS PWR PGSO [1023 19. CAPABILITY As a newly incorporated City (1973), Rancho Palos Verdes is in the initial stage of developing a City administrative and support structure to accommodate the service needs for an estimated cur- rent population of nearly 42,000 and the ability to meet the needs of an ultimate-D-onulation of approximately 50 000. The City does not yet have a capital improvements program. Currently, the city contracts with Los Angeles County for a number of services, including police, roads, animal control, building and safety, engineering, and recreation services. The operating bud- get for the current fiscal .year (1975-76) for recreation services is $125,000 (see Appendix). This budget includes park adminis- tration, grounds maintenance, and construction and repair, with a staff of two full-time and 26 part-time personnel. Itis antici- pated that eventually the City might take over all operations re- lated to the providing of recreation services. In terms.of capital budgets related to the acquisition and de- velopment of recreation and•open space sites, the City is in the Process of acquiring -two surplus school sites from the Palos Verdes Unified school District'to increase the supply of recreational land. To initiate the purchase of the Crestmont and Highland School Sites, $405,500 has been provided in the Capital Improvements and Acquisition Fund in fiscal year 1975-76 for the first installment L, on these sites. For fiscal 1975-76, funds were transferred from surplus in the general fund,•the Environmental Excise Tax Fund, and the Revenue Sharing Fund to the capital Improvements Fund. Ad- ditionally, monies totaling $100,000 for design studiep related to parkland development were appropriated and included -in this fund. The major sources of funds for acquisition and development of parkland are the Environmental Lxcise Tats and Parkland Dedication from subdivisions. At the present tj.me, there is an unappropri- ated balance of $862,927 in the Environmental Excise Tax Fund. There is interest an the part of several community groups for working with the City to develop these facilities. The City is, however, committed to a fiscal philosophy•of carefully programming future long --range costs, rather than only short-range expendiency. This analysis, relative to volunteer resources, has not been ac- complished, since acquisition of the site was uncertain. Recently, a Parks and Recreation Committee was appointed by the City Council to provide pglicy guidance for the development of recreational land and programs. :-27 A-22 0 /03/01 13:30 FAX 1 415 744 4043 NPS PWR PGSO Q024 20.

The CiV would be re at recreational an open space land at the main NIKE site and 4.5 acrag sate on Crenshaw Boulevar . It has een as SM r purposes of fiscal impact analysis that there will be no cost of acquisition; thus, the City would bear only development and maintenance costs. It is estimated that during a five-year period, beginning 1978-79 imat 000 will be re uir d for develoment o acre area including sorts nic areas and tennis courts Table Maintenance during the - same period 'fox is eveloped area will start at �o�igly $•5,000; by 1982, at full development, the annual cost will approximate $33,000. For the larger open space and passive recreational area, it is again, assumed that there will be no site acquisition cost., Total development cost is estimated at ,' 84,000, b ,s q6 nnn d mol it;on cost. The ntenance co would increase gradually ram about 2,800 and level off at approximately $14.000_annually. For the recreational area at the upper site, composed of 4.49 acres, it is estimated that for Alternative (1) costs would be approximately $3,500 for total, demolition and $25,000 for develop- ment, with annual maintenance estimated at'$1,000 per acre, Al- ternative (2) costs would be approximately $1,500 for partial demolition and $50,000 for development (primarily in partial reno- vation of structures), with annual maintenance estimated at $1,500 per acre.
