Discussion and Possible Action Including Acceptance of the Presentation of the Introduction of the Mendocino County Parks Needs Assessment Phase II by Blue Point Planning and Provide Direction to Consultant for Completion of Assessment
(Sponsors: General Services Agency)
End
Recommended Action/Motion:
recommendation
Accept presentation of the Introduction of the Mendocino County Parks Needs Assessment Phase II by Blue Point Planning and provide direction to consultant for completion of assessment.
End
Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
The Board of Supervisors approved the Standard Services Agreement with Blue Point Planning for the Parks Needs Assessment Phase I on June 18, 2019: item 5f, and accepted the Presentation of the Phase I report and approved funding of Phase II on February 25, 2020: item 5e.
Summary of Request:
BluePoint Planning will present an overview of the Parks Needs Assessment Phase I completed in 2019 and share information and park maintenance and operations costs with the Supervisors to help direct the second phase of work.
The Phase I Report of the Mendocino County Parks Needs Assessment includes County parks amenities inventory, online community survey and community meeting findings, parks conditions assessment, community needs analysis, policy and parks assessment, and considerations.
Understanding that bringing the parks up to a reasonable standard of operation and function will require substantial investment and time by the County, the presentation will provide order-of-magnitude quantitative information to help the County determine the best direction for the parks. This will help to determine what Phase II of the work should focus on. Funding for Phase II includes quantifying and prioritizing planning level capital costs for safety upgrades, park enhancements, and overall improvements, as well as identify operational costs and appropriate funding and staffing levels needs. Phase II will also identify potential revenue sources for sustained operation of the parks, one-time capital improvement strategies, and possible partnerships and ownership scenarios.
The presentation will provide time for discussion and direction from the Board of Supervisors for the completion of the Parks Needs Assessment Phase II.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Not approve and provide further instruction to staff.
