Community Services Commission
May 9, 2005
MEMBERS PRESENT: Commissioner Bob Leidner
Commissioner Victoria St. Johns
Commissioner Mark Weber
MEMBERS EXCUSED: Commissioner Ed Hackney
STAFF PRESENT: Dodie Horvitz, Community Services Director
Christy Kerry, Community Services Secretary
A. Interactive Water Feature
After some discussion of financial matters associated with the water
feature, the Commission decided it was in the best interest of the
community to recommend the original design with additional funding
from the Quimby account. Director Horvitz was asked to provide a
cursory analysis of the main components to justify spending the extra
fifty thousand dollars. It was moved by Commissioners Leidner/Weber to
find the necessary funds to complete the project as proposed.
Unanimous.
B. Annual Work Plan
The Commissioners discussed the proposal made by City Council to
combine the Community Services Commission with the Cultural Arts
Commission. Commissioner St. Johns said she feels that it will be hard
to absorb the knowledge and experience the Cultural Arts Commissioners
have, but it was stated by staff that Commissions have been successfully
combined in the past. Director Horvitz encouraged the Commissioners to
attend the upcoming City Council meeting where this proposal will be
discussed.
C. Other
Each Commissioner agreed that Commissioner Fleck will be missed on
the Commission. The Commission asked staff if something is done to
recognize exiting Commissioners to which staff stated the City Council
prepares a plaque thanking him/her for their service.
Commissioner Leidner provided an update on his trip to the Parks and
Recreation Conference he attended in March of 2005 with Director
Horvitz and Kristin Riesgo, Recreation Supervisor.

COMMUNITY SERVICES COMMISSION MEETING
DATE: May 9, 2005
ITEM TITLE: La Quinta Park Interactive
Water Feature
RECOMMENDATION:
M"ORItltIl:YY_4tor"
BUSINESS SESSION: A
CONSENT CALENDAR:
STUDY SESSION:
PUBLIC HEARING:
As deemed appropriate by the Community Services Commission.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
Dependent upon the Commission's recommendation, the project could require up to
$50,000 in additional funds.
WORK PLAN TASK:
Park Development.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
At the March 4, 2003 City Council meeting, the City Council approved issuance of a
Request for Proposals (RFP) for an interactive water feature for the La Quinta Park.
RFP's were sent to artists registered with the City as part of the Artist Bank, as well
as those who requested an RFP in response to the information provided in the Desert
Sun, La Quinta Chamber of Commerce Gem, the Riverside Arts Council publication and
the A/E Consultants Information Network.
At the April 10, 2003 Cultural Arts Commission meeting, the Commission reviewed
the only proposal received, "Water Dragon," submitted by Alber De Matteis. Mr.
De Matteis has experience working with the City of La Quinta, as he is the artist who
S:\Community Services\Community Services Commission\CSC Report\CSC Rpt'05\CSCRPT.24I.Interactive Water
Feature 5-09-05.doc
designed and installed the art work at Fritz Burns Park, which includes the spray
towers, sidewalk mosaics and the gates at the pool house.
The Cultural Arts Commission recommended the project for City Council consideration
along with the proposed budget. At the May 6, 2003 City Council meeting, the City
Council directed staff to contact the artist for redesign of the artwork to consist of
water spraying up from the ground.
Staff contacted the artist regarding the Council's desires. Mr. De Matteis stated that
he was unable to produce such an art piece. Staff then contacted three water feature
designers that produce the type of artwork the City Council desires for the La Quinta
Park. On August 19, 2003 the City Council considered the interactive water feature
for the La Quinta Park and directed staff to proceed with the design of an interactive
water feature that incorporates a filtration system and regular flow nozzles and
authorized a Request for Proposal to be issued for a project designer and construction
manager.
Staff received two proposals from consultants interested in the La Quinta Park
interactive water feature: David Volz Design (DVD) and TKD and Associates. On
October 13, 2003, the two design firms were interviewed and the selection committee
selected David Volz Design to begin negotiations on this project.
On November 4, 2003, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement
with DVD for the design of the interactive water feature. DVD presented a proposed
interactive water feature to the Community Services Commission at their January 12
meeting. The Commission considered the proposal; however, the cost of the proposed
project exceeded $175,000. Staff was directed to work with the designer to reduce
the price of the project, but not the amenities for the interactive water feature. DVD
was able to reduce the cost of the proposal to approximately $140,000 which includes
a 4,000 gallon storage container, a recirculating system and 10 different spray
elements.
The proposed cost does not include the rubber surfacing for the interactive water
feature. However, the City received notification that grant funds have been approved
through the California Integrated Waste Management Board ("CIWMB") for rubberized
surfacing for this project. The estimated cost of the rubber surfacing is $14,000, in
which $7,000 of grant funds can be used, with the remaining $7,000 being provided
as a matching source from the City.
The estimated maintenance for the interactive water feature is 3-4 hours a week to
check and adjust the chemicals in the storage container and to clean the drains. These
functions can be performed by the service that maintains the City's various fountains.

The Community Services Commission reviewed the revised proposal at their March 8,
2004 meeting and has forwarded the recommendation to fund the project as proposed
for City Council consideration.
At the March 16, 2004 City Council meeting, the City Council approved the proposed
Interactive Water Feature concept. The designer then completed the plans and
specifications for the project.
At the April 20, 2004 City Council meeting, the City Council approved the project
applications for grant funds for the Per Capita and Roberti-Z'berg-Harris Block Grant
Programs under the California Clean Water, Clean Air, Safe Neighborhood Parks and
Coastal Protection Act of 2002 (Proposition 40) for the La Quinta Park Interactive
Water Feature and new playground equipment at the YMCA facility and new shade
structures. The balance of the City's match for the rubberized surface beneath the
interactive water feature ($7,000) will also be paid from these grant funds. The
amount of funds allocated to the La Quinta Park Interactive Water Feature in the
application was $153,764.
The Proposition 40 applications will be submitted for approval by the California
Department of Parks and Recreation upon return of the Notices of Exemption from the
County of Riverside, which were filed on June 4, 2004.
An executed copy of the Grant Agreement for the rubberized surfacing was filed with
CIWMB on June 22, 2004, and a Notice to Proceed was received on July 7, 2004,
which authorizes the City to begin work on the project.
At the November 4, 2003 City Council meeting, the City Council approved a
Professional Services Agreement with David Volz Designs to design an interactive
water feature and then act as a construction manager for the installation of the
project.
Staff met with Mr. Volz of David Volz Design (DVD) on Friday, November 7, 2003 to
discuss the project and to begin work on the project.
At the November 4, 2003 City Council meeting, the City Council approved a re-
circulating system for the interactive water feature in order to conserve water.
At the January 12, 2004 Community Services Commission meeting, the Commission
reviewed the design as presented by Elaine Dove of David Volz Design. The
Commission recommended that the design include as many water elements as allowed
by the budget. Ms. Dove redesigned the water feature with an updated budget. At the
January 12 meeting, the proposed budget for the project was approximately $125,000
with a contingency.
SACommunity Services\Community Services Commission\CSC Report\CSC Rpt'05\CSCRPT.241.Interactive Water
Feature 5-09-05.doc
The final engineer's estimate for the Interactive Water Feature was $173,937. The
remaining funds for the project would be used from the Quimby account.
At the July 20, 2004 City Council meeting, the City Council approved the Plans,
Specifications and Engineer's Estimate for the interactive water feature with the bid
opening planned for November 9, 2004. Attachment A provides the approved water
feature design. Two bid packets were received by the City. Both bids received
exceeded the Engineer's Estimate of $173,937. California Landscapes bid the project
at $257,662 and Zondiros Corp. bid at $412,790. Both bids exceeded the established
budget for this project.
On January 4, 2005, the City Council rejected all bids for this project and staff has
been working with the architect on possible redesign of the project to reduce the cost.
The majority of the cost of the approved plans is the re -circulating system which
includes filteration, chlorination and pump systems. The actual components for the
feature are in the $5,000410,000 range, therefore, merely reducing the components
would not significantly reduce the cost of the project.
Staff is seeking Commission direction regarding the design of the interactive water
feature. The options available for Commission consideration include: redesigning the
water feature to include one palm tree, three spray bollards using one time water and
the rubberized surface in a starburst design in an amount not to exceed $140,000 or
recommend using the original design with re -circulated water and allocate remaining
funds from the La Quinta Skate Park and Childcare Facility Playground projects to this
project. There is approximately $69,000 left in the skate park budget along with
$6,700 in the Childcare Facility project budget, bringing the total to $292,414.
Additional funds could be requested from the Quimby account in an amount not to
exceed $50,000, bringing the total project budget to $342,414 in which to construct
the originally approved design.
Staff will forward the Commission's recommendation to the City Council for
consideration at the next available meeting.

COMMUNITY SERVICES COMMISSION MEETING
DATE: May 9, 2005
ITEM TITLE: Annual Work Plan
RECOMMENDATION:
AGENDA CATEGORY:
BUSINESS SESSION:
CONSENT CALENDAR:
STUDY SESSION:
PUBLIC HEARING:
As deemed appropriate by the Community Services Commission.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
Additional funding is not required at this time.
WORK PLAN TASK:
Advisory Body to the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
_A_
The Community Services Commission submitted its annual work plan for City Council
consideration for Fiscal Year 2005-06 at the May 3, 2005 City Council meeting. At
this meeting, the City Council discussed the possibility of combining the Cultural Arts
Commission and Community Services Commission as it appears that the two
Commissions are offering many of the same type community programs.
The Cultural Arts Commission offered or supported the following events: Old Town
art shows; Path of the Bighorn unveiling; Concert Under the Stars; La Quinta
Playhouse and Artist Partnership Day. The Community Services Commission hosted or
supported the following programs: Library Groundbreaking; Skate Park
Groundbreaking; Tree Lighting Ceremony; Youth Workshop; Skate Park Coalition;
Centre Point Park Groundbreaking; Flag Day event and the Community Picnic.
S:\Community Services\Community Services Commission\CSC Report\CSC Rpt'05\CSCRPT.240.Annua1 Work
PLan 5-9-05.doc
The City Council suggested that the Commission be a five member Commission
through attrition of members when their terms expire. Currently, the Cultural Arts
Commission has two filled positions that will expire in 2006, those being the positions
held by Sheldon Brodsky and Andrea Gassman. The Community Services Commission
has three positions that expire in 2006, those Commissioners being Ed Hackney, Tori
St. Johns and Mark Weber.
The City Council directed staff to place this item on the May 17, 2005 City Council
agenda for consideration with the Commissioners receiving a copy of the staff report.
Due to the possible change in the Commissions, the City Council took no action on the
work plan submitted for consideration.
Staff has not finalized the City Council staff report regarding this issue, however, a
possible suggestion is to have the Cultural Arts Commission become the Art In Public
Places Committee, and would meet when there was a proposal for a public art piece to
be considered. The Cultural Arts Commission considered three public art piece
projects during Fiscal Year 2004-05: Point Happy modifications; Old Town Mural
Project, and Path of the Bighorn Sheep placement. The Community Services
Commission would then be responsible for the community programs.
Should the City Council determine it in the best interest of the City to combine the two
Commissions, the ordinance that governs the Commission would be modified to reflect
the change of responsibilities.
Attachment A is a copy of the Cultural Arts Commission's proposed work plan for
Fiscal Year 2005-06 along with Attachment B which is the Cultural Arts Commission's
Fiscal Year 2004-05 Work Plan Tasks.
