cameras to keep watch of the campus at night versus the cost of vandalism to the
campus. Mr. Howlett has been keeping record of the vandalism at the campus.
Commissioner Gassman requested that the bolts be cut off on the Artist
Acknowledgement area and that the "figure" that was originally there is replaced to
tie in to the artist acknowledgement.

Vice -Chairperson Sylk suggested that consideration be given to a sidewalk to divert
walking on the Mosaics. Chairperson Weber suggested up -lighting the Sun and
Moonbeam to decrease the vandalism and to better view the piece.

Calle Tampico & Desert Club Drive (Running Free)
The Commissioners indicated that the Running Free art piece at the Embassy Suites
is in great condition.
Eisenhower Drive & Avenida Bermudas (Obelisks)
Commissioner Gassman asked about the long term commitment to keep the
Obelisks in the Cove. She indicated they are extremely difficult to read at night.
e Calle Tecate & Avenida Madero (Fish Trap with Bear)
Steve Howlett, Golf & Parks Manager indicated that the Fish Trap with Bear will be
repaired this Fiscal Year. The tiles are broken and the rocks around the perimeter of
the art piece need to be removed. Chairperson Weber suggested a small concrete
enclosure around the perimeter be considered to keep people from walking inside or
throwing rocks at the tiles and breaking them.
Fritz Burns Park (Dances with the Landscapes Mosaics, Gateway to the
Desert, In Between Earth and Sky Spray Towers, Walk Through Rainbow)
Edie Hylton, Community Services Director indicated that the Mosaics at Fritz Burns

stated that the additional pieces are being made and will be added after the first of

Lake La Quinta Drive and Washington Street (Desert Dolmen)
Vice -Chairperson Sylk commented that the Desert Dolman is not easily viewed
from Washington Street and the cars drive past too quickly. Vice -Chairperson Sylk
indicated the current location was not a good place for the art to be placed.
Northwest Corner Washington Street/Highway 1 1 1 (Cahuilla Family)
Chairperson Weber indicated that the access needs to be improved at the Cahuilla
Family art piece:. A bench and a granite pathway would complete the area.
Commissioner Leidner indicated the lack of access created a potentially safety
issue. Commissioner Gassman indicated that this is a very high quality piece and
that it would be mice to have another from this artist.
Northeast Corner Washington Street/Highway 1 1 1 (Oasis 1 1 1)
Director Hylton stated that the City Council recently approved the relocation of this
piece to Fritz Burns Park. This will be coordinated with the Corporate Yard Master
Plan and reassembled.
Southeast Corner Washington Street/Highway 111 (La Quinta Court
Fountain)
Commissioner Gassman and Commissioner Long agreed that they did not feel that
the La Quinta Court Fountain was an art piece and felt it was more of a landscape
feature.
Y Lowe's Hardware (Eagles)
Commissioners discussed the possibility of relocation of the Eagles at Lowe's
Hardware. Chairperson Weber and Commissioner Leidner indicated that the Eagles
could be placed at the rock formations near the temporary clubhouse at SilverRock
Golf Course. The landscape work at Lowe's Hardware is very extensive and a nice
addition to the front of the Lowe's store.
La Quinta Car Wash (Desert Scene)
Chairperson Weber and Vice -Chairperson Sylk remarked that the Desert Scene at
the La Quinta Car Wash was very nice and in excellent condition.
La Quinta High School (Mascot Mural)

CONFIRMATION OF AGENDA
Motion - It was moved by Commissioner Leidner and seconded by Commissioner
Long to confirm the agenda. Motion carried unanimously.
PRESENTATIONS — YMCA Swimming Pool Program, Rob Ballew, Executive
Director, Desert 'YMCA.
Mr. Ballew explained that the YMCA is a valley wide YMCA from Palm Springs to
Los Bonitas school in Thermal/Salton Sea area. There are 18 program sites
throughout the valley. There are a number of program centers including a
preschool in La Quinta, next to the Boys & Girls Club, which serves 140 kids. The
YMCA just completed their 2ntl year at the Fritz Burns Pool. The pool meets the
YMCA's needs greatly with the wading pool and lap pool for swimming lessons.
Community SOrV{CCS Commission Minutes De(;ernber 11, 20013
2-
The 2006 Aquatics program had an overall increase from 3,667 users in 2005 to
4,624 users in 2006. This year's evaluation ratings were 89% - very good to
excellent.
The Anderson Foundation donated money for 192 free swim lessons to anyone age
8 and above. This program was for low income people who wished to have their
kids learn to swim but did not have funds. Media Coverage for the program
included two television spots, four photo stories, and several press releases on
Aquatic programs and novice swim meets. Labor Day was a free day of swim,
which families seemed to love. A local valley swim team used the pool in hours
when little or no programming took place. All local schools were contacted and
offered end of school year party rentals. Nine schools took advantage of this.
Novice swim meets were held at the end of each month, seven races were held by
ability and age group. All participants received ribbons.
Mr. Ballew stated that the YMCA is working on a capital campaign to build a
regional YMCA in Rancho Mirage. It would generate additional income over and
above the direct and indirect expenses then the YMCA could go out and have other
satellites.
Vice -Chairperson Sylk asked why the Group Rentals went from 100 last year to 0
this year. Mr. Ballew stated that this was because of the way the school year
started and how the calendar year fell with Labor Day being the last day of the
season.
Commissioner Gassman stated that she is concerned about the pool being
underutilized and would like to think about how can we upgrade and restructure
the pool. Mr. Ballew stated that the pool is in direct sunlight most of the day
which makes the; pool very warm, it is not refreshing to jump into. A donor of the
YMCA donated a pool chiller, which was put on the kiddie pool. It was operational
for 3 weeks when it was shut off because it threw off too much humidity. People
would be in the lap pool and get out and go into the kiddie pool to cool off. Pool
temperature is an issue. The chiller unit was about $2,800 for that size pool. The
chiller doesn't cost much to operate, but it has to be in an area in the pump room.
A separate area is needed for the chiller or vented to the outside where you can get
rid of all the humidity. A cooler pool would have a lot to do with who comes in the
afternoons. Commissioner Gassman asked how many lanes were needed for lap
swimming. Mr. Ballew stated that they would need three lanes for lap swimming.
Commissioner Gassman asked if the regional YMCA in Rancho Mirage would have
a pool and if so, would that end the City's relationship with the YMCA for Fritz
Burns Pool. Mr. Ballew stated that the regional YMCA will have two pools, but as
long as there is a need in La Quinta they will continue to work with the City. Ms.
Hylton stated that the City enters into an annual agreement with the YMCA and
Community Services Commission Minutes December 11, 2006

have had two years of a good relationship which continues to get better each year.
There have been conversations about looking at creating fun factor at the pool.
Chairperson Weber asked is the YMCA had some pool design resources. Mr.
Ballew stated that Ms. Hylton has a better handle on the design resources than the
YMCA. Ms. Hylton stated that you can add nice features to a traditional pool and
be able to charge: a relative value added fee as a result. Those features really help
take a dated facility and make improvements for the community. Chairperson
Weber asked about the cooling equipment for the larger pool. Mr. Ballew stated
that a ventilation system would have to be put in the equipment room or consider
outside shade over the pool area or a portion of it.
Ms. Hylton stated that staff is working on basic pool improvements such as deck
surfacing and the disinfectant system. Chairperson Weber asked if a shade cover
or partial shade cover was in the works. Ms. Hylton stated that would be
something staff could look into. The priorities for the pool start with the deck
surfacing and the disinfectant system. If we are looking to cool the water, the
chiller and a shade structure over a portion of the pool could be considered.
Commissioner Le:idner asked if the City and the YMCA look at the pool as a 6-
month opportunity opposed to a longer time frame. Mr. Ballew stated that the pool
is not heated and once you get into October the temperatures change very quickly.
The YMCA would want to do a survey first due to the utility and staffing costs.
Commissioner Gassman suggested using solar panels to heat and cool the pool.
Ms. Hylton stated that staff has not looked at year round operations because there
are high staffing costs with annual operations. Chairperson Weber stated that is
would take significant usage to warrant annual operations.
