BITTER Senior Office Assistant City of Palm Desert, California CITY OF PALM DESERT DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT MEMORANDUM TO: PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION FROM: JEFF WINKLEPLECK, ASSOCIATE PLANNER DATE: DECEMBER 13, 1995 SUBJECT: ROLLER HOCKEY RINK I have been in contact with the City of Garden Grove regarding the cost and operation of their newest roller hockey rink. The rink measures 180 feet by 70 feet and includes a 6 inch slab, boards with sound proofing, fencing, lights and bleachers . Attached is a breakdown of the project costs (prevailing wage) . The issue of liability and injuries was also brought up. They indicated that while there have been some minor injuries (scrapes, bruises, twisted ankles, etc. ) no claims have been filed against the city since their first rink opened in 1989 . As for operations, the rinks are left open and unsupervised. They said they used to lock them, but the kids would just climb the fence. There are signs indicating required equipment and hours that the rink is open. The rinks can be reserved for league play or practice.

Folkers, ACM/Public Works Director SUBJECT: IMPROVEMENTS AT IRONWOOD PARK DATE: December 7, 1995 We have received additional cost information as shown below to provide a better turf area as well as improving the access at park. The breakdown is as follows : Amendment $ 3,500 Sod 11,000 Concrete 12,250 $26,750 Contingency ( 10%) 2,675 $29,425 We feel that all of this work can be completed for under $35,000, and it would appear that the funding source should come from the park fund; however, there are no funds for these improvements at this time in either the Public Works operational budget or the current Capital Improvement Program. 6rI HARD J.

Gaugush Gregg Holtz Tom Theobald Norse INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM CITY OF PALM DESERT TO: Phil Drell, Acting Director Department of Community Development/Planning FROM: Richard J. Folkers, ACM/Public Works Director SUBJECT: FOLLOW-UPS FROM PARKS & RECREATION MEETING ON 11/8/95 DATE: November 20, 1995 * Ironwood Park We have investigated the site and agree that it has been very difficult to establish good turf. Last Thursday morning, November 9, Tom Theobald and I reviewed various aspects of the Ironwood Park. In the past we added a soil amendment to the soil; however, there are still spots where the turf cannot grow because of the high concentration of gravel material . It would cost approximately $15,000 to sod the 1 .5 acres at Ironwood Park, and both Tom and I would recommend these items be done. Also, we have a problem with park users kicking the decorative rock around in the parking lot resulting in our recommendation to install concrete in certain areas and remove the decorative rock. The estimated cost for this work is $12,250 . As a result, the total estimated cost for these improvements is $27,250, and it would be our recommendation to begin work on these improvements as funding is available in the parks account. * Replace Tire Swing The tire swing was replaced on Tuesday, November 14 . * Task Force - Maintenance Schedule for the Tennis Courts A meeting has been scheduled with the appropriate staff and Dan Barnes for today, November 20, 1995. ra RIC RD J.

Folkers, ACM/Public Works Director SUBJECT: PROBLEMS WITH DOGS IN THE PARK DATE: November 22, 1995 Attached are four pieces of information, some of which you have already received, detailing problems with dogs in the park. I had intended to bring this item up at the Executive Management Team meeting this week. In any event, it appears there is a problem with people allowing their dogs to run without leashes in the park and apparently the police do not respond as rapidly as the Coachella Valley Recreation and Park District staff desire. Copies of this memorandum are being sent to Steve Bloomquist, John Wohlmuth, Phil Drell, and Tom Theobald for their information. C:7iARD J. F ERS, P.E.

Additional lighting might be the solution to this continuing problem. Lighting as well as patrolling by deputies, I hope, might make this an undesirable area.
