PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
APPROVED MINUTES NOVEMBER 1, 2011
IV. CONSENT CALENDAR
A. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF TUESDAY, OCTOBER
4, 2011
Mr. Ryan Stendell clarified that on Item A, Civic Center Tennis Court
Replacement, paragraph five, the first sentence should read "Staff
suggested scheduling a `General Cahuilla Park Users' meeting in
November", since the meeting is intended for all the Cahuilla Park
users, not only pickleball players. Commissioner Housken added that
on the same item, paragraph four, line one should read "four pickleball
courts 'at Cahuilla Hills Park' are not enough", since Palm Desert
does have pickleball courts in other parks.
Upon a motion by Chairman Guyer, second by Vice Chair Dawson, and 7-
0 vote of the Commission Board, the Consent Calendar was approved with the
above clarifications.
V. NEW BUSINESS
A. PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE PARKS AND RECREATION
COMMISSION BYLAWS
Mr. Stendell stated that as the City approaches build out and with the
current budget constraints, it will be some time before construction of
the last few pending parks begins. Therefore, staff would like to shift
the Commission's focus on how to maximize space use in our current
parks.
The Desert Recreation District (DRD) and Family YMCA provide
excellent programs on behalf of the City and are long-term recreation
providers to the City. Staff sees their expertise as a natural fit and
believes that the best way to involve them in the City's recreation
aspects is by inviting them to become members of the Commission. If
the Commission agrees, a motion to City Council to approve a revision
of the Parks and Recreation Commission By-Laws is needed.
Vice Chair Dawson stated that because this Commission serves an
Advisory Commission and represents the Palm Desert residents, the
following should be considered before a motion is presented:
• Is the Commission recommending that these two entities be on
the Commission knowing that they are contractors to the City?
Would this give the wrong public perception?
• What is the purpose; to seek the organization or a specific title
and/or individual?
• Will both agencies be official members of the Commission?
2
PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
APPROVED MINUTES NOVEMBER 1, 2011
To the first concern, the City Manager, Mr. John Wohlmuth, responded
that a conflict would only exist if money and/or contractual services are
involved. If the agenda includes an item that affects any member
directly, the individual cannot participate in that particular discussion.
On the second concern, he stated that the City Council appoints
individuals; therefore, each organization will be required to nominate
the individual that will represent the organization. The Commission will
then give its recommendation to the City Council for approval.
Finally, Mr. Wohlmuth clarified that the agencies do not have to be
official members of the Commission; they can become ex-officio
members. This means that they can participate in the discussions, but
they cannot vote on the motions.
When asked to comment, Mr. Kevin Kalman of the DRD thanked the
Commissioners for considering making the DRD a member of the
Commission. He stated that their organization used to be a member of
the Commission; therefore, he believes returning their organization as
an official or ex-officio member would be beneficial. Mr. Rob Ballew of
the YMCA shared the same sentiments and agreed with being an ex-
officio member if it's what the Commission prefers.
Commissioner Barnard was not sure how this would be a benefit, since
both agencies have contracts with the City. Mr. Greenwood clarified
that the DRD and YMCA provide recreational services to the City
whether they have a contract with Palm Desert or not. Both agencies
are being invited as providers, not as contractors. Commissioner
Rodriquez asked if there was another reason for this change, since
both agencies attend every meeting and are available to answer any
questions and/or concerns the Commission might have. Staff stated
that the benefit would be that both agencies would be allowed to
provide input without restrain. Currently, they only participate in a
discussion when they are asked to. Commissioner Kelly stated that the
Palm Desert residents appreciate the work both agencies provide and
believes the Commission would benefit from their participation. Chair
Guyer added that the main reason for this change is the lack of new
park constructions. The Commission's role is changing to more of a
programming role and the YMCA and DRD can assist.
Vice Chair Dawson agreed that the both agencies should be allowed to
participate in all discussions as ex-officio members of the Commission,
but each agency must designate specific individual to represent them.
Commissioner Hall added that it was important for the Commission to
be viewed as inclusive, not exclusive. She asked if this could open
issues with other groups and/or organizations that might want to be
become part of the Commission. Mr. Wohlmuth clarified that the
3
PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
APPROVED MINUTES NOVEMBER 1, 2011
application process is opened year round to any individual and/or
organization that wishes to become a member of the Commission. It is
up to the Commission and the City Council to give its approval.
The Commission concurred and recommended that the YMCA and
DRD become ex-officio members of the Commission; each agency is
to appoint a specific individual to represent them; and their absences
are to be handled in the same manner as the absences of the official
members. Mr. Wohlmuth clarified that the initial motion needs to
include a recommendation to the City Council to modify the Bylaws as
recommended by City staff.
Upon a motion from Vice Chair Dawson, second by Commissioner Kelly
and a 6-1 vote of the Commission with Commissioner Barnard opposing, the
above recommendations were moved forward to the City Council for approval.

VIII. PRESENTATIONS AND UPDATES
A. CAHUILLA HILLS PARK PROPOSED BEGINNERS TRAIL WALK
As requested in the previous meeting, Commissioner Kelly and Vice
Chair Dawson joined Mr. Stendell on the beginners trail initial walk.
The three agreed the trail was easy enough for beginners and
incorporated all of the Commission's requests. Mr. Stendell will
approach CVAG Trails Subcommittee to discuss the project's
feasibility.
B. DOG PARK USERS GROUP MEETING
Mr. Stendell reported that last week's Dog Park Users Group Meeting
included 15 attendees; a much lower attendance than the initial
meeting, which included 50 attendees. The news that some areas will
not be overseeded was received well. Some residents asked if they
could form volunteer groups to help with the maintenance of the dog
parks. In addition, a couple from Canada offered to donate money if
they were guaranteed the funds would be used only for the
maintenance of the University Dog Park. Mr. Stendell noted that none
of the attendees were critical of the parks; on the contrary, aware of
the changes in the level of service, they were looking for ways to help.

PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
APPROVED MINUTES NOVEMBER 1, 2011
C. FAMILY YMCA OF THE DESERT
Mr. Ballew reported that the USA Swim Team, which starts today,
included 20 participants. The DVL Water Polo, held on Saturday,
October 29, 2011, at the Aquatic Center, included six high school
teams and a total of 441 visitors. The concession stand is adding early
morning coffee, juice, bagels and fruit on a trial basis and future plans
include adding lunches for nearby businesses and/or a Swim & Eat
Service. In December, an Idaho college will bring 16-20 swimmers for
swim team classes and the Masters Water Polo Regional Tournament,
which is scheduled in March, could bring up to 35 teams.
The Desert Empire Insurance sponsored the Careforkids Program this
Saturday, October 29, 2011, distributing new bikes and locks to 46
children throughout the Coachella Valley (23 from Palm Desert). In
addition, 240 children are currently enrolled in this year's Flag Football,
registrations for basketball are in process, and this year's Hoedown is
Saturday, November 5, 2011, at the Agua Caliente Casino.
Although bleachers were brought in for the DVL Water Polo, staff
agreed more bleachers were needed to better accommodate visitors.
With the type of events being scheduled at the Aquatic Center, staff
believes purchasing the bleachers will be better than getting them from
other organizations, since they can be used for other events.
Vice Chair Dawson stated that the City's Newsletter has the Aquatic
Center's opening hours listed inaccurately, since general admission
does not open at the same than for the swimmers. The information
needs to be clarified as soon as possible. Chair Guyer asked for any
comments of why the annual pass is not selling well, but staff stated
that this item will be addressed in the next meeting.
The Aquatic Center's end of the month report was as follows:

D. DESERT RECREATION DISTRICT
Mr. Jeff Ronci stated that this may be the last month the DRD uses the
current reporting structure. He believes the new software, Active
Communities, will bring more usable information to the Commission.
Palm Desert is currently going through overseeding, so the October
and November rentals have been affected. Because of the returning
residents, there are a large number of walk-ins, but with the current
software, it cannot be reflected in the reports.
The New Volleyball Program is meant to teach children at an early age
the basics of volleyball, so they can become interested in the sport by
the time they reach high school. The Soapbox Derby will be held on
Saturday, December 10, 2011, on Gateway Drive in Palm Desert.
There will be two rally races and there is a currently a waiting list for
the sponsored derby carts.

VIII. COMMISSIONER COMMENTS
- Chair Guyer stated that other cities have formed non-profit
organizations and asked if the City could do the same to help with
maintenance of the Palm Desert parks. Mr. Wohlmuth explained the
process of forming this type of organization and noted that he would be
hesitant to add a competing foundation to all the non-profit foundations
in the valley. Chair Guyer stated that he would like staff to further
research the item.
- Vice Chair Dawson mentioned that he has noticed that miscellaneous
items (i.e. tape) are regularly hanging from the gazeboes. He asked
what can be done so residents can hang items without using tape. The
Commission also asked if the deposit can be used if the pavilion is not
left clean. Mr. Stendell responded that the problem lies in determining
which group is the offender, since pavilions are regularly occupied.
Staff will further research Vice Chair Dawson's request.
- The Commission was informed that the police evacuated the Civic
Center occupiers on Monday night resulting in seven arrests. The
occupiers will be allowed to use the park during the hours of operation,
which is Dawn-11:00 p.m. The police will ensure that they stay off the
premises after the park is closes.
IX. ADJOURNMENT
With no further business or discussion, and with the Commissioners'
unanimous concurrence, the meeting was adjourned at 9:45 a.m.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS
PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT: DISCUSSION OF ENTRY FEES AT THE PALM DESERT AQUATIC
CENTER.
SUBMITTED BY: Ryan Stendell, Senior Management Analyst
DATE: December 6, 2011
Attached is the Palm Desert Aquatic Center's end of the month reports for July through
October and executive summary outlining expenses and income. In addition, Mrs. Karen
Creasy has included a snapshot of the existing fee structure, statistics on usage of various
passes, and accumulated zip codes for users of the Aquatic Center.
User feedback is overwhelmingly positive with regards to the fees. Drop-in swimmers
have commented that fees are inline with other similar facilities. Most repeat customers
purchase the long-term passes (25-punch pass or 3-month pass) or signup for masters
swimming program, which offers a discount over general admission rates.
Staff believes that the annual pass is a good way to capture upfront revenues for the entire
year; however, it does not seem to be selling well. Currently, a user must use the annual
pass 12 times per month in order for the pass to pay for itself, while a 3-month pass pays
for itself after 13 visits. Staff is looking at making the gap wider between the two passes
and more appealing to a swimmer looking to use the facility year round.
Therefore, included in the fee structure snapshot are potential ideas of how the annual
pass fees can be reduced, which will allow the pass to pay for itself if used 10 times a
month. Staff has also discussed the addition of a reduced offseason, 3-month Winter
Pass for the months of November through January.
The proposed rates on the attached fee structure are ideas that City and YMCA staff
have discussed. However, due to the newness of the facility, staff is apprehensive to
make any immediate changes. At this time, staff is only asking for the Commission's
opinion and/or suggestions.

PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT: DISCUSSION RELATING TO FORMATION OF A 501c3 NOT FOR
PROFIT ORGANIZATION FOR FUTURE PARKS AND
RECREATION PROJECTS
SUBMITTED BY: Ryan Stendell, Senior Management Analyst
DATE: December 6, 2011
At the conclusion of the November Parks and Recreation Commission meeting, Chair
Guyer requested information related to 501c3, no-profit organizations, and how it could
potentially help the City's Parks and Recreation facilities. The City Attorney and City's
Finance Director have indicated that the City could form such an entity; however, they are
costly to create and require regular oversight and staff management. Estimates for the
creation of such an organization could reach $20,000. The Coachella Valley currently has
many non-profit organizations competing for funding; therefore, staff does not anticipate a
great opportunity to gather funds.
In the past, staff has found ways to take donations in similar ways to the 501c3
organizations. For example, Homme-Adams Park and Joe Mann Park were both products
of donated land. In addition, the Finance Department has indicated that they can create
any number of restricted trust funds that can be used for specific purposes. However, in
these cases, they rely heavily on the donator's tax professional, so the donation can be
structured correctly.
At this time, staff does not recommend forming a non-profit organization, since the City
has the ability to function similarly to a not for profit corporation without having the burden
of creating and managing an additional entity.

SUBJECT: UPDATE ON CAHUILLA HILLS PARK USERS GROUP MEETING
SUBMITTED BY: Ryan Stendell, Senior Management Analyst
DATE: December 6, 2011
The Cahuilla Hills Park Users Group Meeting was held on Wednesday, November 16,
2011, at 5:30 PM. There were approximately 50 people in attendance primarily to show
support for the pickleball community. After a brief presentation, some of the pickleball
users commented on the large volume of pickleball play and inquired about converting the
second tennis court at Cahuilla Hills to four dedicated pickleball courts. They were
informed that this has been previously discussed and the process that needs to be
followed was explained.
At the meeting's conclusion, a few of the non-pickleball users approached staff with
specific questions, which will be discussed in more detail during Tuesday's meeting.
