PRESENTATIONS 5.a Lew Sbrana: Performing Arts Facility Lew Sbrana a former band teacher at the Healdsburg High School and Director of the Healdsburg Community Band addressed Commissioners in regards to a Performing Arts Center Facility. Mr. Sbrana’s opinion was that the City is lacking an adequate Performing Arts Center. He commented that he has used several halls, gyms and venues for performances; however none of the venues are adequate due to capacity, lighting, acoustics, seating, etc. He further added that the center could be used by: Healdsburg Community Band, New Horizons, Healdsburg Chorus, Healdsburg Ballet, and Healdsburg Jazz Festival among others. The ideal venue and venue possibilities was discussed. Mr. Sbrana mentioned that the Healdsburg Unified School District (HUSD) has spoken about building an auditorium, and that one has been proposed for 2016. He suggested that the City and HUSD may want to consider this as a joint project or collaboration between both parties. Among the venues that were discussed were the Cerri Site being a center for performing arts, or other possibilities such as the Community Center. 5.b Tayman Park (Aaron Bugarske and Becca Hughes): Villa Chanticleer Operations Update Aaron Bugarske and Becca Hughes presented Commission an update on Villa Chanticleer operations since the transfer between the City of Healdsburg and the Tayman Park Golf Group in September of 2014.

Since the transfer they have seen a 50% increase in weddings, proms and regular user group bookings. Staff is onsite 24/7 which allows for more site visits, as a result in more bookings. Staff has increased their marketing efforts to include: The Knot and Here comes the Bride, Wedding Expos, use of social media, as well as styled photos shoot with local vendors to promote the venue. Commissioners inquired about issues such as parking, finances, liquor licenses, resident discounts, etc. Staff commented that there have been no major issues.

Chairperson Mitchell commented that the Villa was managed under the City of Healdsburg for about 20 years. Commissioners commended the work that was done to enhance the Villa Chanticleer. 6. OLD BUSINESS 6.a Director Themig reported that he met with Mr. Wilcox and a group of individual from the baseball community after the June meeting to talk about replacing turf at Recreation Park and the Healdsburg Little League (HLL) fields. The project sponsor would be Healdsburg Little League; the project would be performed by Delta Blue Grass which would be placing Bermuda Grass on the outfield of Recreation Park. The meeting was to talk about specific questions which included: • The scope of work at Recreation Park would include; the area behind the backstop and the infield area, as well as some area around the infield that borders the outfield for dust control. • Delta Blue Grass would be doing most of the work to include turf replacement, prepare the site, and irrigation work. Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes July 8, 2015 Page 4 • Delta Blue grass presented three turf options: The one that was recommended was the Celebration Grass which has a shorter dormancy (late fall to early spring), seeded with rye grass. • Healdsburg Little League would be required to coordinate the use of reclaimed water, which is currently not permitted by the water board. The city does anticipate being able to use reclaimed water as long as it does not go into the storm drains. It must be hand watered. • It would need to meet city standards and the proposal does, the council would grant HLL the right of entry to do the work. • Would the project require prevailing wages? If HLL holds the contract it would not be required. • The project would be granted entirely by donations; donors would not be able to receive any benefits, it would be a goodwill donation. Commissioner Tripathi had reservations about the project which included: turf being used, maintenance, additional work for the limited parks staff. Other items that were discussed were the timing of the project and the fact that the city is in a drought, the use of reclaimed water was emphasized. He suggested that a prototype be done first. Superintendent Licea mentioned that it would require more maintenance work and that there would be a 30-40% water savings. Director Themig clarified that the only action to be taken was toward the Recreation Park field since the Little League fields are under the jurisdiction of the HUSD. Commission opened the discussion to public comment. Mr. Wilcox addressed Commission and told them that the money was ready to be used. He further commented that the user groups are doing a lot of the maintenance work already, where the city is not maintaining the park properly. On a motion by Commissioner Bugarske, seconded by Commissioner Widick, recommended to the City Council approval of Request to Grant Healdsburg Little League the Right of Entry to Recreation Park to replace the Infield Turf, Make Irrigation System Modifications, and Other Related Work. The motion carried on a roll call vote with Commissioners Hyde and Tripathi opposing. (Ayes 5, Noes 2, Absent 0) 6.b Plaza Sign Request Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes July 8, 2015 Page 5 Director Themig presented the request to place a sign at Plaza Park which was proposal from Council Member Mansell. At the last meeting, there were questions about the design and the purpose. Themig shared several of the concepts for design, information on content and the location which was discussed with the Commissioners. Commissioners came to consensus in support of the sign. After discussing location possibilities, one of the ideas was to mount the sign on the Plaza Park shed, additional information is needed. At public comment Ray Holley remarked that he was opposed to the concept of the sign. He believes it will become an issue. On a motion by Commissioner Widick, seconded by Commissioner Bugarske, approved to table the Plaza Sign Request until the next meeting. The motion carried on a voice vote. (Ayes - 7, Noes - 0, Absent-None) 6.c 2015-2020 Project List and Work Plan Commissioner Birdsong left the meeting at 7:47 P.M. Director Themig talked about the 2015-2020 Project List and Work Plan List. He talked about the work plan projects and assigning a proposed timeline based on the next five years. The Parks and Open Space would not be initiated until 2016. City Council approved about $5,000 HVAC and roof work at the Community Center. i. Parks and Recreation Commission Tour Follow-up Items on the Parks and Recreation Commission Parks tour have no funding for improvements; this would be incorporated in a Capital Investment Plan. Some of the items from the parks tour were discussed between the Commissioners. Commissioner Hyde suggested that they take the current list revisit the parks and prioritize the list. Director Themig voiced that there are no funds for the in the capital budget or operating budget, he added that the Commission could make a recommendation to City Council. Commissioners agreed to revisit the parks and prioritize the items. Themig suggested a workshop with Council to seek opportunities to move forward with items, suggested that a conversation take place to learn about the Commission’s priorities. Commissioner Tripathi suggested they prioritize as a Commission as and see if there are any points of alignment with what the City Manager’s priorities are, and others items on the list. Item requested to be kept on the agenda. ii. Community Center Improvements Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes July 8, 2015 Page 6 Themig commented that HVAC work has been approved. Second, there is interim work for customer enhancements and safety issues that will be done as Measure V work, and third is to have an improvement funding plan for the overall vision of the Community Center in 2017. 7. NEW BUSINESS 7.a Cerri Site Adaptive Reuse Design Process On June 15th, Themig presented a proposal to City Council to move ahead on the schematic design for the Cerri Site. There are three options: • • • 1st Option- move forward with the Cohen Warren Plan 2nd Option- take the Cohen Warren plan and look at all possibilities 3rd Option- start all over and start a new process Direction was given from City Council to do a hybrid and take the Cohen Warren Plan and have the public engage in the process. On Monday night, they would like more discussion with public engagement. At the meeting there were other questions that arose about the project such as what other purposes besides the Farmer’s Market can it serve, will it need parking, etc. Themig reported that Council has already taken action to engage the public and would like to listen to suggestions since it has been 8 years since it was discussed. There was a plan to have a joint meeting between Planning and Parks and Recreation Commission which has now been delayed. Commissioner Widick commented that he would like more direction from Council. 7.b Plaza Concert Series Discussion Supervisor Haskell gave some history in regards to the concert series. She reported that in 2006 funding was done thru the Redevelopment Agency and was given $18,500 for the performers. In addition to the performance fees, bands expect meals, alcohol, marketing, and other additional benefits. Haskell mentioned that when selecting bands for the Tuesday in the Plaza Concert Series budgetary consideration is very important. Haskell gave examples of how other cities budget for their concerts, some of them are support by groups, fundraised, and others budgeted. Windsor has a $69,000 budget for seven concert and the Windsor Farmer’s Market underwrites four concerts for a total of eleven, Cloverdale’s concerts are 100% supported by the Arts Alliance, the Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting Minutes July 8, 2015 Page 7 City of Healdsburg has 14 concerts and $18,500 budget, staff is tasked with fundraising for all the concerts, as well as the marketing and staff costs. When the Redevelopment Agency funds were pulled, the direction from staff was to fundraise for all 14 concerts. Haskell commented that with Dan Zastrow’s assistance they are able to bring bands due to his connections with the entertainment industry. Direction was given that staff was not to bring in big name bands, such as an episode that happened in 2006 with the Tommy Castro Band. The concerts are not to be advertised outside of Healdsburg, are not to draw big crowds that exceed plaza capacity. The size of Plaza Park limits the bands that are able to perform because of the capacity, parking issues, security, etc. Staff is tasked with finding bands that will attract large enough crowds, but at the same time should not exceed capacity, which makes it difficult for selection. Some of the higher caliber bands cost approximately $3000 per concert which is not something that can be done throughout the summer series, therefore local bands are selected and this allows for a diverse array of bands. 8. REPORT OF COMMUNITY SERVICES ACTIVITIES Director Themig reported the department has two vacancies; a Recreation Supervisor, and Recreation Coordinator position. Manager Drown gave an update on where the department is with the soccer program which starts in August. It will start two weeks later than the proposed time and will be prolonged the same period of time. 9.

He was told that the cost for the sign would be about $3,000. If the sign is to be place on the shed at the plaza, they may need to move an electrical panel which would add about $1,000 to $2,000 for the project.

APPROVED: ATTEST: __________________________________ Kent Mitchell, Chairperson __________________________________ Mark Themig, Community Services Director HEALDSBURG PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION AGENDA ITEM: 7.a. Field Use, Scheduling, and Improvements Overview MEETING DATE: September 9, 2015 PREPARED BY: Katie Gauntlett, Recreation Supervisor Jaime Licea, Parks Superintendent Mark Themig, Community Services Director BACKGROUND: At the August 2015 Parks and Recreation Commission, the Commission requested an overview of field use, scheduling, policies, and fees. Following that meeting, staffs met to assemble a comprehensive field use matrix and research existing policies and fees structures. We have attached these documents for your review. Field Use Based on our analysis, the High School, Recreation Park, and Community Center fields have the most user groups and appear to have the most use. As you know from prior conversations, these fields also experience the most wear from this use. Fees In researching use policies and fees, there was a subcommittee of the Commission who worked to develop the existing guidelines in 2013. It appears that these were used administratively and not formally adopted by the City Council. However, the fees are set by City Council each year as part of the Master Fee Schedule. They are based on a cost recovery study that the City commissioned in 2010. Improvements At this point, there isn’t a short or long-term plan for improvements to fields throughout the system. However, there are two different strategies included in the 2015-2020 Community Services Work Plan: 1. Park Commission Tour and Park/Open Space Plan Update: This work will identify issues that need to be addressed in a Capital Improvement Program 2. Development of a Capital Investment Program: This work will establish a timeline and funding for making improvements 3. Community Center Synthetic Turf Project: This work is an outcome of the needs assessment and Community Center visioning; staff has been directed to initiate the schematic design process for this project and we will be issuing an Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for a consultant this fall. Staff will present an overview of this information at your September 9 meeting. RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Informational only. If desired, the Commission may wish to establish a subcommittee to participate in these processes.

The City, through its City Council, Commissions, and staff is first obligated to preserving its parks and recreation assets for the benefit of its citizens, now and in the future. Secondary to these principals is the accommodation of requests for use of facilities by qualified user organizations (user groups). Use of facilities by such organizations is permissive and at the discretion of the City and its representatives. The purpose of these field use guidelines is to establish policies and procedures that will preserve City athletic fields and facilities; ensure equitable allocation of facilities for use by organizations/individuals; and to provide safe and playable fields. These guidelines also include the Healdsburg Unified School District (HUSD) fields as the City schedules and maintain the HUSD fields as per a joint use agreement. The guidelines provide rules and procedures for field scheduling and for facility operations and maintenance. In order to accomplish the stated goals, the Community Services Director, or his/her designee, will be responsible for field scheduling and operations in accordance with these guidelines while encouraging optimum cooperation among all user groups. The policy will outline the responsibilities of users from the initiation of an athletic field reservation with the Parks & Recreation Department through post event activities. Under all circumstances, permitted user groups assume full responsibility for the actions of any groups/individuals using fields in accordance with their permitted use. This document supersedes all previous athletic field use policies. ATHLETIC FIELD USE APPLICATIONS / FIELD SCHEDULING Athletic field use permits are issued through the Parks & Recreation Department. Field use requests are made by application (attached) and must be submitted and approved prior to field use. Applications are accepted beginning November 15th for the following calendar year. Only complete applications will be accepted. Submission of complete application does not constitute a permit. If more than one organization applies for the same day and time the City will encourage the parties to collaborate to come up with a mutually agreeable compromise. If the parties involved are not able to do so City staff will use the priority order outlined below when allocating fields.* 1. Field maintenance 2. Per the joint use agreement: City programs and activities (for City fields) / HUSD activities (school fields) and HUSD activities (City fields) / City activities (school fields) 3. Healdsburg based youth sports organizations 4. Healdsburg based adult sports organizations 5. Other users *In recognition of the scheduling practices of Healdsburg Little League, April through mid-July dates at Recreation Park which remain open after the second week in February will be reserved until mid-March. After this time additional applications received for use of Recreation Park will be reviewed and field use permits will be allocated on a space available basis. BI-ANNUAL MEETINGS Bi-annual meetings will be held to discuss field specific issues such as maintenance schedules and expectations, league schedules, tournaments, special events, facility issues, and overall timelines for use. The meetings will coincide with the start of the scheduling period for spring/summer usage and again just prior to the spring program field usage. Meetings will be initiated by City and will include representatives from the field user groups. Each user group requesting athletic field reservations is required to assign a representative to attend the meetings. PARK RULES & REGULATIONS All park user groups/visitors are required to abide by the park and field use rules and City ordinances outlined in this handbook and in the application attached. Applicant is responsible for insuring that the rules and conditions for use are communicated to all coaches, players, volunteers and others associated with the organization’s use of the field(s). PREVENTION & MAINTENANCE Mid-November through January are reserved for field renovation and maintenance. During the remainder of the year the Community Services Director or designee, and/or the School Superintendent or designee, reserve the right to close fields at any time, for needed maintenance and repairs, or for any other purpose deemed necessary due to inclement weather, unsafe field conditions or to comply with the demands of any city programs, school programs or emergency requirements. In the event a field closure, permitted user groups will be notified in advance whenever possible and alternate field space will be arranged if feasible. CHANGES TO PERMITTED USE Permitted user groups are responsible for adhering to their approved/permitted schedule(s). Any cancellations and changes to permitted use must be communicated with the Parks & Recreation Department so that field schedules can be maintained completely and accurately. Acceptable methods of communication are emails or faxes to the designated staff field coordinator. Unauthorized use of fields causes conflicts with routine maintenance and field use schedules and poses challenges in communicating quickly in the event of unexpected problems or field closures. Unscheduled/unapproved usage of a field or facility is grounds for revocation of a permit. FIELD USE FEES An $82 non-refundable application fee is due at the time that application is submitted.

Community Services Budget Overview MEETING DATE: September 9, 2015 PREPARED BY: Mark Themig, Community Services Director BACKGROUND: In August, The Parks and Recreation Commission requested that staff provide an overview of the Community Services budget. The City’s budget cycle is July 1 – June 30. Starting early in the calendar year, the City begins assembling the following year’s budget. City Council typically holds workshops on the budget beginning in May, and the budget is formally adopted in June. The City’s budget contains a General Fund budget that covers basic services like Administration, Finance, Public Works, Planning, and Public Safety. There are also a number of budgets for other enterprise operations like Electric and Community Services. I’ve included the City’s budget overview document. The FY15-16 Community Services is attached. Our budget identifies 5,108,810 in revenue, and 5,274,544 in expenditures. In addition to day-to-day operations, there are a number of project specific line items that are included in the budget: • $1,527,405 in revenue and expenditures for the Cerri Site Adaptive Reuse Project • $196,837 in expenditures for internal services like vehicles, information technology, and building maintenance • $151,100 to fund work LandPaths work at Fitch Mountain and Healdsburg Ridge open spaces • $150,000 for the Fitch Mountain Open Space management plan • $436,474 for City administrative overhead (Administration, Finance, etc.) Community Services and Finance staffs are working on a financial breakdown by service area for the TOT brochure. While we won’t have the TOT brochure complete by your September 9 meeting, we should be able to provide a service area breakdown at the meeting. RECOMMENDED ACTION(S): Informational only.

Community Center Improvement Funding Options MEETING DATE: September 9, 2015 PREPARED BY: Mark Themig, Community Services Director BACKGROUND: The Parks and Recreation Commission has indicated a strong interest in moving forward discussions around potential improvements at the Community Center. In response, staff has incorporated a proposed project timeline into the 2015-2020 Community Services Work Plan for the Community Center improvements. At this point, there appear to be major phases in the improvement process: Phase 1, HVAC and Roofing Replacement: This work is underway and addresses failing HVAC equipment and needed roof repairs. The work also includes remodeling the elementary school age designed restrooms so they are more suitable for public use. Phase 2, Customer Experience and Safety Enhancements: This work would address operational and safety issues related to the concrete areas that have shifted due to the overgrown trees, repair and replacement of deteriorating siding material, lighting modifications, and exterior repainting. Additional work would include an evaluation of office space and installation of WiFi for staff and guests. City Council has awarded a contract for the design and cost estimating for this work. Phase 3, Community Center Vision Implementation: This work implements the vision that was an outcome of the Community Needs Assessment. One of the major outcomes of the vision includes installation of a multi-purpose artificial turf area on the south side of the building that would replace the existing grass fields and some of the asphalt slab. The City will be issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for schematic design and cost estimates for this work this fall. As we look at future improvements, funding will need to be secured to move these improvements forward. Department staff met with Finance staff to brainstorm different funding options. This activity involved identifying all the different potential funding options that could be considered regardless of feasibility. The following is this list: • • • • • • • • • • • • • Community Services fund balance Ballot Measure for Bonding (increase in TOT percentage; sales tax, etc.) Bonding with other revenue sources (e.g. existing or increasing TOT revenue, revenue, ) Corporate sponsorship (naming rights) Individual sponsorship (naming rights) Bequests Sale of real estate Foundations Grants Donations General fund Development agreements Park Fees Staff will present an overview of this information at your September 9 meeting.
