CITY OF PALM DESERT New Business Item A. / Ar � = DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY SERVICES k It*ie P- "44 vitt aAiy Parks and Recreation Commission Memorandum • TO: Parks and Recreation Commissioners FROM: Jennifer Nelson, Management Analyst DATE: May 4, 2021 SUBJECT: Memorializing the late Coach Paul Thompson at Hovley Soccer Park In January of this year, the Desert lost a longtime youth soccer coach, mentor and friend to many; Mr. Paul Thompson aka Coach Thompson. At the February 2, 2021 Parks and Recreation Commission meeting, it was requested that City staff present some options of memorializing Coach Thompson at Hovley Soccer Park, his favorite hangout. After researching available options, staff is recommending the following actions: 1. As benches in Hovley Soccer Park are in need of repair/replacement, replacing a bench near Field Five in memory of Coach Thompson with the following inscription: COACH PAUL THOMPSON ALWAYS IN THE GAME (see attached) 2. Coordinate with the Palm Desert Youth Soccer Association requesting them to honor Coach Thompson at the upcoming soccer conference in February 2022. The cost to the City would be approximately $2500.00 for bench replacement and an additional $500.00 for the inscription. For item No. 2, staff does not foresee any additional costs to the City.

CITY OF PALM DESERT New Business Item B. iiiticai,et = DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY SERVICES k 14*ie W- "44 vitt aAiy Parks and Recreation Commission Memorandum • TO: Parks and Recreation Commissioners FROM: Randy Chavez, Landscape Supervisor DATE: May 4, 2021 SUBJECT: Civic Center Dog Park Shade Structure Replacement On March 15, 2021, the City experienced a severe wind event that blew over a light standard in the Civic Center Park parking lot. The pole landed on top of one of the fabric shade structures in the large dog park and caused severe damage; to the point where the entire structure was deemed unrepairable and had to be removed. With the extreme Desert temperatures, providing shade is very important to the City's dog park customers not only for comfort but for protection from the sun. Staff is recommending replacing the structure as soon as possible and would like direction from the Commission on the type and style of structure to be installed. The options, installation timeframes and costs are below. Staff is asking the Commission to select one. Type of Structure Installation Amount Timeframe Installation of Fabric Shade Structure- 3-5 months $25,000 currently used in Civic Center Dog Park Installation of Steel Shade Structure — 3-5 months $50,000 currently used at University Dog Park Although the steel structure is double the cost, the lifespan is approximately 30 years and requires little maintenance. However, there is a concern that it may retain more heat than a fabric structure. Steel structures are installed at the University Dog Park and staff has not received calls regarding the heat issues. The fabric shade structure has a similar lifespan but requires the shade fabric to be replaced approximately every 5-7 years (or sooner if vandalism is involved), at a cost of approximately $7,000 each time. The benefits are that it is less costly to install and it is cooler. 11 • woe" April Report on the Civic Center Park—Jerry Dawson My observations after multiple visits on various days & at various time of day: 1. People enjoy being there—often greet one-another; most wear masks; walk but also ride bicycles, scooters, skates or skateboards; dogs on leash. 2. Larger groups use the gazebos, but families like to find a shady spot on the grass. Sometimes two or more family-groups will assemble while social-distancing between family groups. 3. The 'tot-lots' are well used, as are pickle-ball, basketball and tennis courts. Swim-lanes are generally occupied; People invent games and exercise with ropes, discs and balls all over the park and conduct work-outs in the amphitheater. I am left with the following thoughts: 1. Roses in the Desert Rose Society's rose garden are in full bloom. Labeling each variety would be helpful for enthusiasts and appreciated by admirers. 2. Duck Food dispensers should be re-considered. Twenty-five cents is too expensive for most people and the dispensers are never supplied with packages of food. The whole effort is not working as an educational. 3. The wooden railing tops on all three bridges over the Lagoon will need to be refinished or changed to a harder surface in the future. 4. Do we have a system that tells us when it is appropriate to expand the number of EV charging stations? 5. Every time I park under the Date Palm Trees in the Aquatic parking lot, I am filled with pride that the City elected to keep those stately trees. 6. If you have not visited the Desert Holocaust Memorial recently, it would be worth a contemplative visit. • Wil� lei M ® • - DESERT RECREATION DISTRICT Date: April 30, 2021 To: Palm Desert Parks and Recreation Commission From: Brenda Nutcher, Community Services Coordinator Subject: April 2021 updates Palm Desert Community Center and Gymnasium The center is open.

The dining area was so successful that in May of 2021 the City Council directed staff to extend the existing contract to maintain Lupine Plaza through the summer. At that time, the City Council also requested staff work through the process of establishing a permanent Lupine Plaza. At the June 10, 2021 City Council meeting, the City Council voted unanimously to: 1. Direct staff to prepare an RFP and hire a design firm to create a permanent outdoor dining area that is inviting, welcoming, and enjoyable for a variety of users. 2. Create an ad hoc subcommittee to work through design consideration and to assist with public outreach efforts. The ad hoc subcommittee will consist of the following members: • Staff members from Public Works and Development Services • Mayor Pro Tem Harnik and Councilmember Nestande • 1 Planning Commissioner • 1 Architectural Review Commissioner • 1 Parks and Recreation Commissioner • 1 Art in Public Places Commissioner • 1 Board Member from the El Paseo Merchants Association • 1 - 2 Property owners adjacent to Lupine Lane The subcommittee will meet as needed and is expected to have the first meeting in August 2021. Staff believes the make-up of this subcommittee will ensure adequate public participation from stakeholders in the community. Additional public meetings to vet the design will also be scheduled with the public at large to solicit feedback before finalizing design options.
