Bud et Resolution A ro riatin Funds for the Reima inin South Cit Park Pro'ect
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actians relative to the City of Redding's Reimagining
South City Park Project:
(1) Accept the Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership Program grant award of $3.52
million;
(2) Authorize the City Manager to exeeute a Deed Restriction requiring that South City Park
remain an outdoor recreation use area in perpetuity;
(3) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 57th Amendment to City Budget
Resolution No. 2023-060 appropriating $3,520,000 for the Outdoor Recreation Legacy
Partnership Program grant for the Reilnagining South City Park project for fiscal year
2024-25; and
(4) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the Grant Contract (C8968023) and
all subsequent documentation relative to the grant.
Fiscal Impact
The Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership (ORLP) Program grant award of$3.52 million will
cover 50 percent of phase one construction of the South City Park (Park) improvements. The
ORLP Program requires a 50 percent match, funded by a combination of Park Development
funds (Park In-Lieu fund ($300,000) and the Park Development fund ($800,000) and a $2.4
million Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Section 108 Loan, as authorized by the
City Council (Council) at the November 1, 2022 meeting. In addition, $20,000 in match funding
wi11 be contributed by the Redding Parks and Trails Foundation.
The ORLP Program grant is reimbursement-based, as proposed, the General Fund would cash
flow the project until reimbursement requests are processed. The ORLP Program grant will not
cover overhead beyond direct costs for salary and benefits. Staff is examining alternative
approaches to reduce or eliminate this overhead expense.

Budget Resolution Page 2
Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could choose not to accept the ORLP Program grant award, limiting
the ability to move forward with the Park's phase one construction, or provide staff with alternate
direction.
Background/Analysis
On June 21, 2022, Council approved a concept to reimagine South City Park and authorized staff
to refine the concept, develop a program, and estimate project costs with the assistance of Project
for Public Spaces. On December 6, 2022, Council approved the South City Park Activation Plan
and the submission of an application for an ORLP Program grant. Staff submitted the ORLP
Program grant application, which was recommended by the State of California Department of
Parks and Recreation to the National Parks Service for the next competitive round.
In the meantime, the N�ational Park Service encouraged staff to apply for a Land and Water
Conservation Fund (LWCF) grant as a backup strategy, knowing that the National Park Service,
which funds both the ORLP and the LWCF programs, would only fund one grant per project. On
June 6, 2023, Council approved the LWCF grant application to the National Park Service for
funding of approximately $3.5 million to move forward with phase one construction of the
Reimagining South City Park Project. With the notice of award of the ORLP grant from the
National Park Service, the City will tivithdraw its application for the LWCF grant, per the
direction of NPS staff
Funding from the ORLP grant will cover phase one construction and/or renovation which
includes:
• A playground;
• Multi-use green space and lounge areas;
• Pickleball co�urt complex;
• Skate plaza;
• Basketball court;
• Fenced dog area;
• New bathrooms;
• Baseball field and bocce ball court improvements; and
• Improvements to pathways, lighting, and landscaping throughout.
It is important to note that the successful application of the grant includes a deed restriction
requiring that South City Park remain an outdoor recreation use area, in perpetuity.
Environmental Review
This action is not a project as de�ned under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA),
and no further action is required. On December 6, 2022, Council found that the project is
categorically exempt from review under the CEQA Guidelines, per Sections 15301(d) —Existing
Facilities, 15302(c) — Replacement or Reconstruction, and 15303(d & e) - New Construction or
Conversion of Existing Structures.

South City Park, Redding's oldest park, is nearly 100 years old. The park is uniquely poised to
serve the community. It has, within its boundaries, a baseball field, bocce ball courts, tennis
courts, a basketball court, walkways, and open grassy areas for picnicking, sitting, and other
informal uses. Directly adjacent to the park are the Redding Library and Tiger Fie1d along with
space for parking. The park is near two residential neighborhoods and only a short distance from
the newly revitalized downtown Redding. In addition, Redding City Hall with its ample grounds
is just two blocks away.
The park has seen some challenges since its inception. In 1964, the Council called for a special
election to se11 the park property, and the idea was rejected by the voters. In recent years, the
park had a decrease in utilization by the community and needed revitalization to return to its
original vibrancy. In 2017, the Council directed staff to prepare a request for proposals for

Re: 9.6(a)--Approve Agreement for Programmatic Plan and Schematic Design at South City
Park Page 2
projects at South City Park with the hope of soliciting new ideas for, and private investment in,
the park. The RF'P was released in 2018 and two responses were received, but neither was
funded. In June 2018, the Council directed that South City Park be fenced and closed to open.
public access and that staff work with interested community partners to develop activities to
utilize the park property. Public meetings were held and two groups proposed new uses for the
park. An agreement with Redding Tennis Club was signed in 2019. Redding Tennis Club was
anticipated to bring regular programming, community events, and updated facilities to the park,
but the work was never executed.
On November 16, 2021, staff presented a proposal to the Council, recommended by the
Community Services Advisory Commission (CSAC), to conduct a broad community
engagement effort regarding the future of South City Park. Immediately following, A board
member from the Colt 45s presented a proposal to construct an additiona] baseball field and an
entertainment stage in the park as well as conduct some improvements to Tiger Field. The
Council accepted both reports and directed staff and CSAC to continue to engage the community
in dialog regarding options to enhance South City Park through workshops, surveys, and public
meetings and to collaborate with the Redding Colt 45s organization. Tn-mid January, the Colt 45s
withdrew its proposal.
In response to the Council's direction, staff launched a series of opportunities to solicit public
opinion. Three open houses were conducted—two in-person on-site at the park, and another via
Zoom. City staff facilitated discussions and used pop-up boards to compile the ideas and
priorities from the community. Staff developed an online survey which was distributed through
the City's communication media to reach a greater audience and those who were unable to attend
open houses. From December 1 - January 19, 2022, the public survey collected almost 1,300
responses. Overall community engagement results highlighted the opinion that it is difficult to
access the park by foot or bike, and there is a perceived lack of safety.
Staff retained the services of Project for Public Spaces (PPS), a firm of multi-disciplinary
professionals who have facilitated many public placemaking community engagements efforts,
published multiple studies and reports on the subject, and assisted communities to reactivate
neglected public spaces. In February 2022, PPS staff visited Redding and conducted two fu11
days of focus groups and interviews. These discussions revealed missing elements in the
community and existing elements that can be expanded upon. Discussions delved into the
background on past uses of South City Park, the nostalgia the community holds for the park, and
the impaet of the fencing that was installed three years ago. These engagements helped increase
awareness of the options and understanding of the work needed to include the community in the
program planning of the new South City Park. Following its visit, PPS reviewed all of the
community engagement collaterals and produced the attached South City Park Visioning Plan
(Visioning Plan)whieh addresses both placemaking and activation.
CSAC reviewed the Visioning Plan at its meeting on Apri125,2022, with a presentation from the
PPS staff and several interested members of the community. CSAC members unanimously voted
to accept the report and recommended proceeding to the next level of planning with PPS.
Under the proposed contract Project for Public Spaces (PPS) will develop an initial park
improvement plan and schematic design, as we11 as a programming matrix and activation plan.
The work would be completed no later than June 30,2023.
Report to Redding City Council June 16,2022
Re: 9.6(a)--Approve Agreement for Programmatic Plan and Schematic Design at South City
Park Page 3
The preliminary design will include:
• Entrances, gateways, as we11 as subplaces and destinations within it (existing and
proposed) illustrating different programming options (e.g. seasonal events, markets,
celebrations, etc.);
• Types of experiences and programs for the park, including infrastructure needs (e.g.,
stages, storage, res�rooms, food, electrical, water, etc.);
• The character and scale for buildings in the park (if needed) including urban design
considerations, and desired type of retail, community, civic and cultural uses;
• Circulation patterns, access points,parking options,pedestrian and bicycle routes;
• Linkages to the park and between various destinations within; etc.
• High level programmatic level cost estimating.
The Programming Matrix and Activation Plan builds on the ideas that emerged from focus
groups and interviews, as well as the information froin the community survey and open house
meetings. The program will include:
• A inatrix that lists existing and proposed uses and activities, and when they occur during
the day, week and year;
• Conceptual diagrams illustrating the layout of new or proposed program elements in the
park;
• A discussion of the management implications of the proposed levels of programming;
• A list of additional and potential programming partners;
• A list of types of recreational and organized activities as well as self-directed,
spontaneous and daily uses; infrastructure, management, and maintenance needs related
to active programming (e.g., stages, storage, landscaping, electrical, water, etc.); and
thematic linkages to other community events and destinations.

SUBJECT: 4.6(c)--Approve Funding Changes for South City Park and Block 7 Projects
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the follawing actions relative to grant funding for the South City Park
and Block'7 Project infrastructure projects:
(1) Authorize the following actions related to the United States Department of Housing and
Urban Development Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Section 108 Loan
Guarantee Program (Section 108 Program):
a. Adopt Resolution approving the CDBG Section 108 Program application in the
amount of$3,737,000;
b. Authorize the City Manager to re-appropriate funding upon approval of CDBG
Section 108 Program application for design and improvements at South City Park;
c. Autharize the City Manager to execute any documents necessary to modify the
Section 108 Program application and facilitate the funding changes; and
(2} Authorize the following actions related to the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)
funding:
a. Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 70th Amendment to City Budget
Resolution No. 2021-078 decreasing existing allocations for South City Park by
$2,407,730 and appropriating $2,407,730 in ARPA funding to Block 7 project
infrastructure; and
b. Authorize the City Manager to execute any documents necessary to facilitate the
funding changes.
PiscaZ Impact
Should the City Council (Council) approve this item, it wi11 switch funding sources between the
B1ock 7 and South City Park Projects. As these are two grant-funded projects, there is no impact
to the General Fund.
Report to Redding City Council October 26,2022
Re: 4.6(c)--Approve Funding Changes for South City Park and Block �Projects Page 2
Alternative Action
The Council could decline to reallocate or switch funding sources for the Block 7 and South City
Park projects. This action wi11 limit opportunities for staff to obtain supplemental grant funding
for South City Park.
Background/Analysis
South City Park, Redding's oldest park, is nearly 100 years old and is uniquely poised to serve
the community. It has, within its boundaries, a baseball field, bocce baIl courts, tennis courts, a
basketball court, walkways, and open grassy areas for picnicking, sitting, and other informal
uses. In recent years, community utilization decreased in the park and South City Park needed
revitalization to return to its original vibrancy.
On November 16, 2021, staff presented a proposal to the Council, recommended by the
Community Services Advisory Commission (CSAC), to conduct a broad community
engagement effort regarding the future of South City Park. Following the community
engagement, on 1Vlarch 15, 2022, the Council opted to allocate Coronavirus State and Loca1
Fiscal Recover Funds, also known as SLFRF and American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), toward
the revitalization efforts of South City Park. Staff retained the services of Project for Public
Spaces (PPS), a multi-disciplinary firm that has facilitated many public placemaking community
engagement efforts, published multiple studies and reports on the subject, and assisted
communities in reactivating neglected public spaces.
At the June 16, 2022, meeting, the Council approved a concept to reimagine South City Park and
authorized staff to refine the concept, develop a program, and estimate project costs with PPS.
Construction costs will exceed the $2.5 million ARPA allocation. Staff discovered, while
investigating other grant funding opportunities to address the funding gap, that some available
grant programs do not accept ARPA funds as a match funding source. CDBG funding, however,
is an eligible source of match for most federal programs. By reallocating previously authorized
CDBG Section 108 Program funds for South City Park, rather than ARPA funding, staff may
seek out and apply for grant opportunities to fully fund the South City Park improvements.
The CDBG Section 108 Program provides communities with a source of financing for economic
development, housing rehabilitation, and public facilities. The Section 108 Program loan funds
are borrowed and s�ubsequently repaid by the City through its current and future CDBG
allocations over a 20-year term. The current loan application specified infrastructure
improvements on the Block 7 project. Necessary Block '7 project improvements include water,
wastewater, storm drains, and underground utility infrastructure to support income-eligible
housing, all of which are approved uses for ARPA funding. Staff proposes to move the Block 7
improvements to the ARPA program and the South City Park improvements to the CDBG
Section 108 Program. The change in allocations wi11 unlock more funding opportunities for
South City Park. Staff will return to the Council to obtain authority to apply for grants as needed.
Environmental Review
This action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA),
and no further action is required. Environmental studies are in progress for South City Park, and
a CEQA/NEPA determination will be made prior to construction.
Report to Redding City Council October 26,2022
Re: 4.6(c)--Approve Funding Changes for South City Park and Block �Projects Page 3
For Block 7, on November 10, 2017, after the Planning Commission held a public hearing, it
approved Use Permit UP-2017-01322, and a CEQA Notice of Exemption was filed on November
22, 2017. The NEPA Authority to Use Grant Funding document was executed by the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development on August 19, 2019.
Council Prior�ity/City Manccger Goals
• Public Safety — "Work to improve a11 aspects of public safety to help people feel secure

Recommendation
Authorize the following relative to the design, funding, permitting, engineering, and construetion
of improvements at South City Park:
(1) Approve the conceptual plan;
(2) Authorize the submission of an Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership application in the
amount of $3.5 million to begin phase one construction of the South City Park
improvements;
(3) Find that the project is categorically exempt from review under the California
Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, per Sections 15301(d) — Existing Facilities,
15302(C) — Replacement or Reconstruction, and 15303(d & e) - New Construction or
Conversion of Existing Structures; and
(4) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute a11 documents necessary to complete
the Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership Program application process.
Fiscal Impact
Approving the conceptual plan has na direct fiscal impact. This decision will set a course in
motion to secure the funding necessary to construct this park design.
The Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership (ORLP) Program grant application will request up
to $3.5 million to begin phase one construction of the South City Park (Park) improvements. The
ORLP Program requires a 50 percent match, which will be sourced from the CDBG Section 108
Loan authorized by the City Council (Council) at the November 1, 2022, meeting and additional
park development and grant funds. Funding for phase two elements of the Park project will
reguire alternate funding sources and/or additional grants.

Re: 9.6(a)--Approve Concept Plan &Authorize GrantApplication for South City Park Page 2
Alternative Action
The Council could choose to not approve the conceptual plan, decline to apply for the funds
under this grant opportunity, or provide staff with alternative direction.
Background/flnalysis
South City Park, Redding's oldest park, is nearly 100 years old and is uniquely poised to serve
the community. It has, within its boundaries, a baseball fie1d, bocce ball courts, tennis courts, a
basketball court, walkways, and open grassy areas for picnicking, sitting, and other informal
uses. In recent years, community utilization decreased, and the Park needed revitalization to
return to its original vibrancy. On November 16, 2021, staff presented a proposal to the Council,
recommended by the Community Services Advisory Commission, to conduct a broad
community engagement effort regarding the future of the Park.
Since the City Council approved a thorough community process to address the future of the Park
in November 2021, the Community Services Department has launched a series of engagements.
Three open houses were conducted — two in-person and on-site and another through Zoom.
Coinmunity Services Department staff led discussions and used pop-up boards to collect data
that reflects the priorities of the community. Staff also created an online survey in order to reach
greater community engagement and reach those who were not able to be heard or were unable to
attend open houses. From December 1 through J�anuary 19, the public survey collected almost
1,300 responses. Results highlighted the difficulty in accessing the park by foot or bike and the
perception of a current lack of safety when utilizing the Park.
Staff retained the services of Project for Public Spaces (PPS), a multi-disciplinary firm that has
facilitated many public placemaking community engagement efforts, published multiple studies
and reports on the subject, and assisted communities in reactivating neglected public spaces. PPS
made two extended site visits and convened over a dozen focus groups as well as key interviews.
At the June 16, 2022, meeting, the Council approved a coneept to reimagine the Park and
authorized staff to refine the eoncept, develop a program, and estimate project costs with PPS.
At the Council meeting on November 15, 2022, the Council requested the item be reconsidered
at the December 6, 2022, meeting.
The consideration is for the updated conceptual plan, including a revised layout including:
• Arrival and activities plaza(7,300 sq. ft.)
• Destination playground (25,200 sq. ft.)
• Multi-use pavilion(4,500 sq. ft.)
• Covered porch (1,600 sq. ft.)
• Flex lawn (26,500 sq. ft.)
• Pickleball Courts (17,280 sq. ft,)
• Youth area (12,000 sq. ft.)
• Fenced dog area (6,000 sg. ft.)
Report to Redding City Council December 2,2022
Re: 9.6(a)--Approve Concept Plan &Authorize GrantApplication for South City Park Page 3
The design draws from over 40 years of placemaking work in communities large and small,
focused on bringing neglected and underutilized spaces back to life. It ]ayers a variety of
activities, age groups, active and passive uses, and schedules to build an attractive and active
public space. The design for the Park creates a new focal entry point, a circulation pattern, an.
arrangement of activity spaces, and other necessary features such restrooms, storage, tables,
chairs, benches, bike racks, and portable play items.
The suggested program matrix (page 28-31) includes a variety of daily, weekly, monthly, and
annual events with seasonal offerings such as musical performances, specialty markets, lawn
game tournaments, chili cook-offs, Paesano Days, Library programs, and more.
Construction costs are estimated at $8-$10 mi]lion, which exceeds the existing $2.5 miIlion
budget, and staff is seeking additional funding to begin engineering and construction of the plan.
The ORLP is a National Park Service (NPS) grant program focusing on communities with little
to no access to nearby, publicly available, outdoor recreation opportunities in urban areas. The
program funds the acquisition or development of new parks and substantial park renovations in
economically disadvantaged cities or towns of at least 30,000 people. I7se of this grant source
will require the City to ensure that South City Park remain an outdoor recreation use area into
perpetuity.
ORLP includes two competitive processes. California's Department of Parks and Recreation
reviews applications, selects finalists, and then forwards the finalists to the National Park Service
for a nationwide review. Applications are due December 15, 2022, and the estimated award date
is January 1, 2024. The application will request approxiinately $3.5 million to implement phase
one of construction, which could include features such as the playground, pickleball courts, flex
lawn, entry plaza, and youth area. Staff anticipates needing additional funding sources for the
remaining project elements that will be considered by the Council at a future meeting.
Envi�^onmental Review
Staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt from review under the California
Environmental Quality Aet (CEQA) Guidelines, per Sections 15301(d) — Existing Facilities,
15302(C) — Replacement or Reconstruction, and 15303(d & e) - New Construction or
Conversion of Existing Structures. Class 1 exemptions include the minor alteration of existing
public structures and facilities. Class 2 exemptions consists of replacement or reconstruction
where the new structure will be loeated on the same site and will have substantially the same
purpose and capacity, Class 3 exemptions consist of construction and location of new small
facilities and equipment, or conversion of existing structures. The existing park will be renovated
to meet public recreational needs with modern accessible amenities that meet public safety
standards. The project will be located on the same site, will have the same purpose and capacity,
and will result in a negligible expansion of use. The action area does not have significant values
for wildlife habitat or other environmental resources and the project has no potential to have a
significant effect on the environment.
If the City receives a grant, the National Park Service wi11 conduct a coordinated National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review with the City. No fiirther action is required at this
time.

SUBJECT: 4.6(a)-- Ratify Grant Application and Adopt Resolution for Land and Water
Conservation Fund for South Cit Park
Recommendation
Approve and authorize the following actions relative to the National Park Service Land and
Water Conservation grant program:
(1) Ratify the grant application to the Land and Water Conservation Fund requesting up to
$3.5 million to begin phase one construction of the South City Park improvements;
(2) Adopt Resolution approving the City of Redding as an applicant for the Land and Water
Conservation Fund; and
(3) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute all documents necessary to apply for
the grant.
Fiscal Impact
The Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) grant application will request up to $3.5
million to begin phase one construction of the South City Park (Park) improvements. The LWCF
grant application requires a 50 percent match, funded by a combination of Park Development
funds and a $2.4 million Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Section 108 Loan, as
authorized by the City Council (Council) at the N�ovember l, 2022 meeting. This grant program
will not cover overhead beyond direct costs for salary and benefits. Staff is examining alternative
approaches to reduce or eliminate this overhead expense.
Alternative Action
The Council could provide staff with alternative direction or decline to ratify the application for
this grant opportunity. In this case, staff would contact the grant agency to withdraw the
application.
Report to Redding City Council June 1,ZOZ3
Re: 4.6(a)--RatifyApplication and Adopt Resolution for Land and Water Conservation FundPage 2
Background/Analysis
At their June 21, 2022, meeting, the Council approved a concept to reimagine the Park and
authorized staff to refine the concept, develop a program, and estimate project costs with
assistance from Project for Public Spaces. At the December 6, 2022 Council meeting, Council
approved the South City Park Activation Plan and a grant application for the Outdoor Recreation
Legacy Partnership (ORLP)program. Staff submitted the ORLP grant application, and CA Parks
recommended it to National Parks Service for the next competitive round. An announcement is
expected in the next few months.
Staff is seeking another grant to improve the chances of receiving funds for the South City Park
project. The LWCF is a National Park Service (NPS) grant program focusing on communities
with limited access to nearby, publicly available outdoor recreation opportunities in urban areas.
The program funds the acquisition or development of new parks and substantial park renovations
in eeonomically disadvantaged and park-deficient areas. The City's application for LWCF
funding requests approximately$3.5 million to implement phase one park construction. The NPS
funds both the ORLP and the LWCF programs and will only fund one grant per project. If the
City is successful with ORLP, the LWCF applieation will be withdrawn. Construction costs are
estiinated at $7 million for the following components of the South City Park Design and
Activation Plan:
• Arrival and activities plaza
• Pickleball courts
• Destination playground
• Flex lawn
• Youth area with basketball and skate plaza
• Fenced dog area
• Lighting and landscaping throughout
The California State Parks Office of Grants and Local Services encouraged staff to apply for the
grant as a backup to the previous ORLP application. The quick application turnaround did not
allow staff enough time to seek Council permission prior to the June 1, 2023 grant submission
date. If successful, the grant agreement will include a deed restriction requiring that South City
Park remain an outdoor recreation use area in perpetuity. Funding for phase two elements of the
Park project, such as the multi-use pavilion, will require alternate funding sources.
Environmental Review
This action is not a project as de�ned under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA),
and no further action is required. On December 6, 2022, Co�uncil found that the project is
categorically exempt from review under the CEQA Guidelines,per Sections 15301(d) —Existing
Facilities, 15302(c) — Replacement or Reconstruction, and 15303(d & e) - New Construction or
Conversion of Existing Structures.

SUBJECT: 4.6(a)--Adopt Resolution appropriating Park In-Lieu and Park Development
Funds for South Cit Park
Recommendation
Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 41 St Amendment to City Budget Resolution No.
2023-060 appropriating $1,100,000 for the City of Redding (City) South City Park Revitalization
Project funded by $300,000 from the City's Park In-Lieu fund and $800,000 from the City's
Park Development fund.
Fiscal Impact
The funds requested for the $l.l million appropriation come from revenue collected from Park
In-Lieu and Park Development fees. Community Services Department staff is requesting to
appropriate $1,100,000 for the South City Revitalization Project funded by $300,000 from the
Park In-Lieu fund and $800,000 from the Park Development fund. Fee revenue is used to acquire
necessary parkland, develop new parks, or increase the capacity of existing facilities.
Preconstruction and construction activities for the South City Park revitalization project are
appropriate uses of these funds. Staff identified these funding sources in previous staff reports
and grant applications as matching funds for the project.
In October of 2023, the United States Department of�Iousing and Urban Development approved
a $2.4 million Community Development Block Grant Section 108 Loan. The Section 108 Loan
wi11 fund the design and construction of infrastructure improvements at South City Park. In 2023,
staff applied for and recently received notice of an award for an Outdoor Recreation Legacy
Partnership program (ORLP) grant through the Nationa] Park Service for $3.5 million. The
program requires a 50% match ($3.5 million) for the project's total budget of $'7 million,
Considering the proposed City of Redding (City) funds, Section 108 loan, and grant award, the
available project funds will total $7 million, fulfilling the match requirement.
Report to Redding City Council May 1, 2024
Re: 4.6(a)--Adopt Resolution appropriating Park In-Lieu and Park Development Funds for
South City Park Page 2
Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could decline to adopt the budget resolution for the project, which
would require the Community Services Department to find an alternate funding source to
complete the project, or provide staff with an alternate direction.
Backg�ound/Analysis
At their June 21, 2022 meeting, Council approved a concept to reimagine South City Park and
authorized staff to refine the concept, develop a plan, and estimate project costs with assistance
from Project for Public Spaces. To move forward with the design process, on January 16, 2024,
Council awarded the architectural and engineering services to design South City Park to Gates &
Associates. The first phase of implementing the project, estimated to cost $7 million, will include
the following elements of the South City Park design and reactivation plan:
• Destination playground with spray/misting/water feature;
• Arrival and activities plaza;
• Flex greenspace;
• Pickleball court complex;
• Youth area, including a skate plaza, basketball court, lounge areas, climbing, and rope
features;
• New restrooms;
• Improvements and renovations to the existing K1 baseball field and bocce ba11 courts;
• Conversion of existing pathways to a walking/jogging loop with wayfinding and distance
markers;
• Lighting and landscaping throughout;
• Small dog park; and
• Removal of the existing tennis courts and basketball courts.
With the upcoming ORLP grant award, the City must now substantiate its match sources as it
begins to incur projeet expenses and execute contracts with the grant agency. For this purpose,
two internal funds are generally available for park construction. First, Park In-Lieu Fees, which
are collected when a subdivision map is recorded and are assigned to one of four geographic
areas, or quadrants, based on the subdivision's location. Fees are spent only on park
improvements within that part of the City, which, in this case, is the City's southwest auadrant.
Secondly, the Park Development Fund, which collects impact fees on residential and commercial
(including office and industrial) building permits to mitigate the impacts to the existing park
system and offset the costs of developing new and/or improving existing parkland. Funding the
design and construction of the revitalization of South City Park is an appropriate use of both
funding sources.
