From: Sharon Kennedy, CSC Chairperson and Clint Bohlen, Parks and Recreation
Manager
Date: October 12, 1992
Subj: Light Repair Needs at Fritz Burns Tennis Complex and Sports Complex
(Item VI. B.1.)
BACKGROUND
Attached the Commission will find quotes from two companies: Hegge Electric for Fritz Bums
Park and LaSalle Electric for the La Quinta Sports Complex. These quotations were acquired to
get a "ball park" idea of what repairs of the respective light systems would cost.
Recently, Chairperson Kennedy received comments from a tennis professional that the lights at
Fritz Burns were very needed, as the level of user traffic which she has witnessed after S:OOp.m.
at all courts while conducting her lessons has been very great indeed.
This has been verified by staff on the several occasions which staff has visited the courts during
the day and in the early evenings.
The Sports Complex field lights have been a perceived albatross to the residents of the Brock
Homes development. Staff and a consultant took light meter readings from within the Brock
development, and found the readings to reflect a severe light spill problem into the residential
area.
RECOMMENDATION
The Chairperson of the CSC requests that the Commission recommend:
1. That the staff prepare Bid Documents for the purpose of performing field and court lighting
repairs at the Fritz Bums Park Tennis Courts and the La Quinta Sports Complex; and
2. That the Council allocate $30,000 from the Lighting and Landscaping Fund for the purpose of
the repair of the Fritz Burns Park Tennis Court lighting system on courts 1 through 4 only,
including the installation of coin operated light boxes; and the repair of the Sports Complex field
lights per the suggestions made in the July 6, 1992 LaSalle proposal's 1 - 4, including the re-
wiring of the timer system and control system, and the re -aiming and shielding of the existing
lamps.

RE: Fritz Burns Park- tennis courts 1-4
Dear Sir,
Thank you for calling Hegge Electric in reference to your tennis
court lighting needs.
I have assessed the situation and come to the following conclusion;
After confering with the engineering dept. at IID, we've decided
our source of power must come from just west of court lil.
We are estimating that one half of your lamps will be burned
out or weak and assume one quarter of your ballasts are bad.
Iwould recommend we super clean all reflectors and lenses in
this process. Also all weather stripping should be replaced in
fixtures to keep dirt out of the lights.
Dirty lenses will result in a 30-40% loss of light. These
lenses should be cleaned at least twice a year in order to
maintain optimum light on court surface.
The following is a Scope of work estimated:
1. Install 200 amp service at SW corner of court #1 including all
piping and excavation needed for energizing.
2. Provide and install 4 coin operated switches at each court.
3. Remove all existing switching.
4. Install new conduits and J-boxes as needed to restore system.
5. Install new lamps and ballasts as needed 12 lamps-6 ballasts
in bid.
6. C an all lenses and reflectors.
7. Re -weather strip all fixtures.
8. Realign all lights on courts.
Total estimated cost--------------------------$10,600.00
All work to be inspected by city of La Quinta Bldg. Dept. and IID.
I hope this estimate will help you in your decision.
Thank You,
Jim Hegge

EAR CLINT,
THIS LETTER IS TO EXPLAIN THE FOUR. PROPOSALS I HAVE PROPOSED
PO YOU.
?hOPOSAL #1: AS OF DUNE 3, 1992 WE SURVEYED THE LA QUINTA
SPORTS CENTER AND FOUND FOURTEEN (14) LAMPS OUT. IT IS TO
OUR KNOWLEDGE THAT IF A CHILD WAS TO GET HURT DUE TO POOR
.IGHTING THERE WOULD BE A LAWSUIT. I PROPOSE THAT WE CHANGE
"HOSE BURNED OUT LAMPS IMMEDIATELY TO PREVENT SUCH A THING
30POSAL #2: AFTER SURVEYING ALL THE LIGHTING FIXTURES WE
?cEL7 HAT THERE IS A TREMENDOUS BUILD UP OF DUST ON THE
FIXTURE LENSES. THIS CAN CAUSE PREMATURE LAMP FAILURE AND
�AN CUT 20% TO 50o OF LIGHT OUTPUT.
FE"'POSAL 43: BY SEEING HOW MANY LAMPS ARE BURNED OUT AND BY
=DISCOLORATION OF THE OTHER BURNING LAMPS, WE FEEL THAT THE
AMPS ARE AT THE END OF THEIR LIFE EXPECTANCY. THE EXISTING
I OO WATT METAL HALIDE LAMP HAS A LIFE OF 3000 HOURS. IT
JOULD BE LOST EFFECTIVE TO YOU TO GROUP RELAMP AND CLEAN
RATHER THAN SPOT RELAMP AND CLEAN DUE TO THE COST OF EACH
_ERVICE CALL AND YOU GET A BETTER PRICE ON LAMPS DUE TO THE
LARGER QUANTITY ORDERED.
PROPOSAL #4: WE WILL GO THROUGH ENTIRE SYSTEM ACCORDING TO
THE ORIGINAL PLAN AND FIND OUT IF THE LIGHTS ARE TURNING ON
yC RDI:IGL1.
EII THOUGH UHE ABOVE PROPOSALS ARE NECESSARY, NOT ONE OF
:FEM WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE RECENT GLARE CONTROL PROBLEMS YOU
RE ZXPERIENCING. THE ONLY WAY THAT THE PROBLEM CAN BE
ARLASALLE- LEcritic pe
28-853 AVENIDA MARQUESA CATHEDRAL CITY, CALIFORNIA 92234
(619) 328.1088
iOLVED IS THAT YOU CHANGE OUT THE EXISTING FIXTURES AND
INSTALL NEW MUSCO BRAND SPORTS LIGHTING. OUR COMPANY HAS
?ORKED VERY CLOSELY WITH MUSCO LIGHTING AND WE WOULD NOT
3ECOMMEND ANY OTHER COMPANY. IT IS A FACT THAT MUSCO
SIGHTING IS THE ONLY COMPANY THAT HAS GLARE CONTROL FIXTURES.
I HAVE SUBMITTED AN ALTERNATE BID THAT INCLUDES THE PRICE OF
ZEMOVING ALL EXISTING FIXTURES AND INSTALLING NEW MUSCO
SIGHTING FIXTURES. ALSO ENCLOSED IS A COMPLETE LIGHTING
:ESIGN WRITTEN BY MUSCO LIGHTING. IT SHOULD HAVE ALL THE
_7HER :FFORMATION IN IT THAT I HAVE FAILED TO MENTION.
.HANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO LET A.M. LASALLE ELECTRIC,
:NC., ASSOCIATED WITH MUSCO LIGHTING, HELP YOU IN SOLVING
:OUR SPORTS LIGHTING PROBLEMS.

Memorandum
To: Community Services Commission
From: Lawrence Best, Vice Chairperson, CSC
Date: October 12, 1992
Subj: Palm Royale Park Design (Item VI.B.2.)
BACKGROUND
The Palm Royale Park, located at the comer of La Palma and Adams Streets in north La Quinta,
has been identified in the draft Parks and Recreation Master Plan and the City General Plan as a
park site for future development. In the Master Plan, the Implementation and Action Plans
indicate that this site is Priority One because the park Planning Area A is deficient over three
acres of park land in meeting the Quimby standard of 3 acres/1000.
RECOMMENDATION
The Vice Chairperson requests that the Commission make a formal recommendation to the City
Council at the Council's October 20, 1992 meeting that the they allocate $15,000 of Quimby fee
money derived from the Planning Area A for design services for the Palm Royale Park site.
Further, the request of the Council should include language which would request that the Request
for Proposal begin in November of this year.
The goal would be to begin development of this 2.19 acre parcel in FY93-94 in order to meet the
immediate need for parkland in the north area, especially addressing the needs of families and
youth.

Subj: AYSO of La Quinta Program Introduction (Item VI.B.3.)
BACKGROUND
The American Youth Soccer Organization of La Quinta was coordinated by one person the last
two seasons. Because of the lack of parent participation, and coordination of and support for the
program, the league had dwindled down to two teams.
The league has been resurrected by a board of nine people who have worked since August to
build a credible, successful program. Two of the board members are here tonight to explain the
program.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff requests that the Commission familiarize itself with this youth sports program.
