By Minute Motion, approve and authorize the Mayor/Chair to execute the Project Funding Agreement. Commission Recommendation The Parks and Recreation Commission have actively been with staff on finding a long-term solution to the north sphere dog park concems. At its November 2013 meeting the Commission approved a recommendation to the City Council supporting the expansion of the Freedom Park-Dog Park. Staff Report Freedom Dog Park Expansion Page 2 of 3 January 23, 2014 Back�round University Dog Park: Contract No. C33250A For some time staff has been managing a growing parking problem at University Dog Park. The University Dog Park was designed and constructed as a neighborhood park meant to service those homes in the immediate vicinity and only minimal parking was provided (13 spaces). The community was also planned and built with a network of bike lanes and sidewalks to maximize connectivity of the neighborhood. Unfortunately, the housing market prohibited the construction of the residential homes leaving the roads and parks constructed with no residents in the area. Many users find the north sphere location convenient for them and the use of this park appears to be much more regional than ever expected. Users have been parking illegally in the bike lanes in this area, which has been un-noticed until several complaints were received from cyclists. The Sheriff's Department has received several complaints from cyclist stating it is dangerous to utilize the bike lane along University Park Drive with cars parking illegaliy and exiting with animals. Through discussions with the Parks and Recreation Commission, staff was tasked with identifying a solution for this problem. In reviewing the parking problem at University Dog Park many users simply state, "why not just eliminafe the bike lane and/or build more parking. " A lot of effort goes into master planning a large residential community. Connectivity and provided amenities are what can make a neighborhood desirable. Staff believes it to be somewhat short sighted to tinker with a planned community prior to it even being constructed. Freedom Dog Park: The constraints of the University Dog Park have showed us that what we are lacking is a regional solution in the north sphere of the City. Freedom Park is the City's regional park in the north sphere, and was constructed with a smal! dog park and ample parking. Staff believes that the dog park at Freedom is extremely undersized and could be enlarged very easily utilizing the turf area to east (see attached exhibit). Staff would propose to create a new fenced in area which would become the new large dog area, and then remove the barrier of the existing dog park and that would become the sma�l dog area. This would leave a dog park of a comparable size to both University Dog Park and Civic Center Park. Staff has estimated the cost of this total project not to exceed $100,000.00 broken into the following categories: 1. Fencing Alterations: $55,000 2. Lighting Upgrades: $20,000 3. Shade Structure: $20,000 4. Landscape Alterations: $5,000 Staff would re-use as much existing furnishings and equipment as possible to keep costs down. For instance, there are ample benches in the area to accommodate the expansion Staff Report Freedom Dog Park Expansion Page 2 of 3 January 23, 2014 Contract No. C33250A rather than buying new benches. Any flat concrete work will be handled by our City Yard crews as well. Municipal Dog Parks have continued to gain in popularity. The City of Palm Desert is clearly providing more space than any other jurisdiction and exceeding national standards. Staff does believe the expansion of the Freedom Dog Park would provide a regional solution in the north sphere and go a long way to ease the parking issues we have at University Dog Park. Fiscal Analvsis Construcfion Cosfs: Although the General Fund would initially advance the funds for this work, it is the intention of the Successor Agency to reimburse the City for the costs. Only in the event there are no funding sources available from the Successor Agency would the General Fund have to pay for the work. Ongoing Maintenance: The expansion of this park will add approximately 15,000 square feet of dog park space. There is no question that maintaining dog park space is more expensive that general open space within a park. We can expect to see a slightly higher (10%-15%) higher premium for maintaining this space. Staff's estimate is a maximum of $2,500.00 in additional yearly maintenance. � Prepared By: --�i��- � Ryan Stendell Senior Management Analyst vie ed d Concur: aul S. Gibson, Director of Finance � M.
