Chairperson Leidner
STAFF PRESENT: Edie Hylton, Community Services Director; Steve Howlett, Golf
& Parks Manager; Christina Calderon, Recreation Supervisor;
and Angela Guereque, Senior Secretary
PUBLIC COMMENT
Kay Wolff, La Quinta Cove Neighborhood Association, introduced herself to the
Commission and advised them that a member from the Association would be

CONFIRMATION OF AGENDA
Motion - It was moved by Commissioners Gassman/Biegel to confirm the agenda.
Motion carried unanimously.
PRESENTATIONS —
1. Mr. Rob Bellew, Executive Director, Family YMCA of the Desert.
Mr. Rob Ballew, Executive Director, and Paula Simonds, Program Director of the
Family YMCA of the Desert gave a presentation to the Commission.
The YMCA of the Desert is an integral part of La Quinta's youth and recreation
programs. This nonprofit organization operates the aquatic programs at the Fritz
Burns Pool, with recreational swim, lap swimming, swim lessons, water polo,
water aerobics, and private party rentals. The pool is equipped with an ADA chair
lift. A review of the summer pool statistics shows an increased usage of the
facility.

A new after school program was opened in November 2008 at the Vista Dunes
Courtyard Homes. This is a grant funded program serving approximately 30
children per day.
YMCA also offers after school programs at Adams Elementary and Benjamin
Franklin elementary schools, middle school sports, and Youth in Government for La
Quinta High School students.
The La Quinta YMCA Preschool and after school program has served hundreds of
children over the past 20 years.
YMCA rates are based on membership and non -membership in the organization;
however La Quinta residents qualify for membership rates for La Quinta programs.
In hardship cases, financial assistance is available to cover some or all of the fees
for participation.
Commissioner Gassman suggested the YMCA submit their 2007 figures to
compare to the 2008 figures. She asked why the drop in price for Water Aerobics
is higher than the class price. Mr. Ballew stated that he will check on that because
it may be an introductory price.
Commissioner Biegel suggested evening swim lessons for working families and
possibly a special nighttime BBQ and Swim event.
Commissioner Quill suggested that if the YMCA would like to offer another swim
lesson program at La Quinta High School they should do a Call Out through the
high school. She also suggested the YMCA hold movie nights at the pool.
Commissioner Darroch suggested installing a slide at the pool. Director Hylton
stated that the current configuration does not provide enough room for a slide.
The YMCA presented a plaque comprised of student handprints to the Commission
for its ongoing support of programs in the community.

BUSINESS ITEMS
Chairperson Leidner requested Business Item 2 be moved in front of Item 1.
2. Consideration of the Four Seasons Panel Project in the Children's Classroom at
the Library.
Director Hylton presented the staff report.
Commissioner Fitzpatrick noted her concern with not being able to see the panels
before being installed. Director Hylton stated that the City Librarian, Friends of the
Library, and the Community Services Director will have the final approval before
installation and will make sure the panels are appropriate.
Motion — It was moved by Commissioners Biegel/Brodsky to recommend the Four
Seasons Panel Project to be placed in the Children's Classroom at the Library and
appropriate $6,000 from Art in Public Places to fund the project. Motion carried
unanimously.
1. Consideration of a Recipient for the 2009 Senior Inspiration Award Program.
Ms. Christina Calderon presented the staff report.
Motion — It was moved by Commissioners Fitzpatrick/Gassman to recommend
Mildred Donley as the 2009 Senior Inspiration Award Program recipient. Motion
carried unanimously.
Commissioner Brodsky stated that just three weeks ago the Commission
overwhelmingly voted not to recommend certain park improvements for Fiscal Year
2009/2010, now Commissioner Quill is asking the Commission to revisit those
recommendations. She made arguments in favor of them at that time but the
Commission voted against them.
Motion — It was moved by Commissioners Brodsky/Gassman to not discuss or vote
on any additional park improvements for 2009/2010 and move forward to the
Department Reports of the agenda. Motion failed with Chairperson Leidner, and
Commissioners Darroch, Fitzpatrick, and Quill opposing.
Commissioner Quill stated that she recommended bringing this item back at
Director Hylton's recommendation. The City Council said to be creative and not
worry about the money. After the Joint Meeting, a City Councilman told her that
12
Community Services Commission Minutes December 8, 2008
he would much rather see us spending money for people than letting it sit in the
bank at 2% interest. We have $10 million in Quimby funds set aside for parks, of
which over $8 million is set aside for land acquisition, but there is still close to $1
million dollars to improve our parks. The grass volleyball and disc golf projects are
approximately $10,000, which is only 1 % of the $1 million.
3. Consideration of additional Park Improvements for Fiscal Year 2009/2010.
Director Hylton presented the staff report.
Chairperson Leidner asked if Quimby funds expire. Commissioner Fitzpatrick stated
that developers can request Quimby funds be refunded if the City has not
encumbered the monies within 5 years.
Keith Gregori of Palm Desert spoke in support of disc golf. He stated that disc golf
is economical with low maintenance and patrons can start playing with as little as
$10 for one disc. All ages can play from pre -teens to seniors. There are
approximately 1,400 courses throughout the United States.
Commissioner Fitzpatrick stated that she has safety concerns with putting the
grass volleyball court in the Seasons Retention Basin due to visibility; disc golf
should not be installed on the Civic Center Campus because it is a passive park.
Commissioner Fitzpatrick suggested that climbing walls be installed as part of the
playground replacement projects.
Commissioner Biegel stated she supports looking at the big picture and not
spending the money currently.
Commissioner Gassman suggested a multi -use Cultural Arts facility be built to the
west of the Library or expansion of the Senior Center. She stated the need for a
larger stage and seating area for events.
Commissioner Quill explained that she is advocating for the youth and does not
care where the grass volleyball court is installed, as long as it is in the Cove. She
stated that the City Council told the Commission not to worry about money, just to
forward ideas to them.
Commissioner Darroch stated she supports the disc golf, but not spending $9,000
for the installation. She agrees with Commissioner Gassman on the need for an
expanded stage and seating area for events. She suggested another bench at
Pioneer Park and lighting for parks.

Commissioner Darroch stated that the new ice skating rink in North La Quinta has
been turning 40 to 50 kids away on Friday nights and the City should have things
for the teens to do.
Chairperson Leidner suggested that the Commission stand firm on the decision to
not bring forward any of these recommendations to the City Council. If there is
money left over at the end of the year then the Commission can decide what the
money is spent on.
Motion - It was moved by Commissioner Fitzpatrick to recommend including the
Adams Park perimeter trail in the 2009/2010 Capital Budget; consider the disc golf
and grass volleyball as part of the 2009/2010 operating budget; table the Desert
Pride Park sand box project; consider climbing walls as part of the playground
replacement program; and include the Fred Wolff Bear Creek Nature Preserve Soil
preparation and plantings, the shade structures at Monticello and Pioneer Park, and
standard park signs as part of the 2010/2011 Budget. Motion failed with no
second.
Motion - It was moved by Commissioner Quill to recommend including a grass
volleyball and disc golf project as part of the operating budget for 2009/2010 and
table all 2010/201 1 projects for further discussion. Motion failed with no second.
Motion - It was moved by Commissioners Gassman/Biegel to recommend Adams
Park perimeter trail as part of the Fiscal Year 2009/2010 Budget. Motion carried
unanimously.
Motion - It was moved by Commissioners Quill/Darroch to recommend the disc
golf and grass volleyball be placed at locations to be determined with monies left
over from the 2008/2009 operating budget. Motion failed with Chairperson
Leidner and Commissioners Biegel, Brodsky, Fitzpatrick, and Gassman opposing.
Commissioner Quill suggested the Commission receive recommendations from staff
in future staff reports.

ITEM TITLE: Consideration of Development and STUDY SESSION:
Expansion of Dog Parks at Various Park Locations
PUBLIC HEARING:
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Community Services Commission consider the Seasons Park
(Retention Basin) and the expansion of the existing dog park at Pioneer Park into the
Coachella Valley Water District well site area for additional dog parks. Funding for the
dog parks could be requested in the Capital Improvement Program in Fiscal Year 2009-
2010.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
On October 5, 2008, a letter from Roger Hopkins was submitted to the City Council
requesting additional dog parks in the City (Attachment 1). The city currently has two
dog parks. These dog parks are located at Fritz Burns Park on Avenue 50 and
Bermudas and Pioneer Park located at Miles and Seeley Drive.
On October 5, 2008, the City Council requested staff to provide information on the
potential for additional and expanded dog parks in the City. The staff has prepared
several alternatives for the Commission to consider addressing the pros and cons of
several sites including development costs and ongoing maintenance. Costs include
separated fencing for small and large dogs, irrigated turf (with the exception of two
open space site considerations), shade structures with benches, bollards and/or low
level lighting, drinking fountains for both residents and dogs, and dog bag dispensers
with signage. Total cost to design and construct a fenced and grassed dog park
approximately 20,000 sq ft, with the previously mentioned amenities, is estimated at
$365,000. The costs to develop vary at each location depending on the needed
improvements to the property. The annual cost for maintaining the dog parks is an
estimated $2.35 per square foot or $47,000 for a 20,000 sq ft property. A CEQA
review and documentation will be completed prior to City Council authorization of a
specific project site.
ill
The following sites (Attachment 2) were considered:
1. Top of the Cove Retention Basin- Located directly south of the Cove parking lot,
this area is owned by CVWD. The Water District was contacted and due to liability
concerns, they do not want CVWD retention basins used for dog parks or trails.
2. Property along Avenida Bermudas directly east of the Top of the Cove- This
property is located northeast of the Cove Oasis parking lot. It is outside of the MSHCP
and could provide for a large linear dog park adjacent to the Top of the Cove. This
location would provide for a dog park in the Cove where residents could run dogs off
leash which is currently a challenge in this area. In discussions with the Cove
Neighborhood Association they have expressed concern about this location and any
proposed development at this site. This site would also not be recommended for
irrigated turf and low level lighting due to its location in an open space area. Hermann
& Associates Landscape Architects provided a preliminary design and cost estimates
for the location with low level lights and limited turf for the sitting area for an
estimated cost of $252,582.
3. Fritz Burns Park- The current dog park is 2,700 square feet for small dogs and
4,980 square feet for large dogs but it is landlocked between two parking areas, a
street, and an arbor to the north. An addition to this location could be considered but it
would remove the active play areas used by residents. This park has numerous rentals
throughout the year for family and group picnics and is considered an active use
facility. This park is not recommended due to active recreational use by the public.
4. Seasons Retention Basin- This City owned facility is located on Cloud View Way on
the northeast side of Adams Elementary School. This area is a grassed 5 acre retention
basin. Staff has discussed this site with the Public Works Director regarding the use of
this site for both water retention and a portion on the east end for dog use. After some
rain events, the area may be wet for dog use but for most of the year, the area would
be suitable for a dog park. Since the turf and irrigation already exist at this location,
the cost to develop a 20,000 square foot dog park is estimated to be $65,000.
Operation costs would increase slightly for the additional trash pick-up due to
increased facility use, as well as increased electrical costs for the low level lighting.
5. Pioneer Park- The current dog park is 8,924 square feet for small dogs and 10,494
square feet for large dogs. Directly east of the dog park is a 20,000 square foot well -
site location owned by Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD). CVWD has indicated
that they would consider allowing for the expansion of the current large dog park into
the well site area which would include expanding the fence to the east and providing
irrigation, turf, and an additional seating area. This expansion could provide for the
needed area for larger dogs. Residents using this dog park have also requested low
level lighting to use the facility in the evenings. Estimated cost to develop the CVWD
well -site is $80,000. The annual operations budget for this park is estimated to
increase $47,000 to $1 15,000. CVWD would still retain the right to develop the well -
.site in the future. 1 1 -
17
6. Monticello Park- This 4 acre park site is located in the Monticello community on
Fred Waring Drive at the northeast corner of the City. This site has irrigated turf and is
large enough to add a 20,000 square foot dog park. The cost to construct a 20,000
square foot dog park would be $65,000. Operations costs would increase slightly for
the additional trash pick-up due to increased facility use, as well as increased electrical
costs for the low level lighting. This site may be considered in the future but due to
the parks location, it would not be a convenient location for most La Quinta residents.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives available to the Commission are:
1. Recommend the development of a dog park at Seasons Park and the expansion
of the dog park at Pioneer Park as a Capital Improvement Project for Fiscal Year
2009-2010 using Quimby funding ;or
2. Do not recommend the development of a dog park at Seasons Park and the
expansion of the dog park at Pioneer Park as a Capital Improvement Project for
Fiscal Year 2009-2010 using Quimby funding ; or
3. Provide staff with alternate direction.

The Honorable Don Adolph, Mayor

OCT 7 2008
Dear Sir. We enjoyed inviting you to our home along with the other
candidates for Mayor and City Council. Although our gathering was
small, our cry for help reaches a multitude of our citizens who are
loving dog owners.
Our message is simple, we need larger and better dog parks
throughout the city with perhaps the largest centrally located near
the Old Town. We believe that the central dog park should include
a water feature where dogs can swim and cool off. Other items
which are common sense and seemly lost in prior attempts would be
adequate shade, benches (preferably in the shade), water fountains
for the dogs, lawns, and of course throw in a few rabbits for the
dogs to chase, then I believe everyone will be happy.
As to the existing dog parks, the Fitz Burns dog park should
have the dividing fence removed and made into a larger park for
small dogs. This park also needs more shade and water. The park
off of Miles could be expanded also in such a way to give more room
for larger dogs as it is too crowded and additional space could be
provided for small dogs. The Miles park could be landscaped in a
way that it does not interfere with the Eisenhower Hospital project.

Petulant Pet Owners of La Quinta
"Off leash" areas would be a welcomed relief for those that
like to hike and run with their dogs and should be considered as
part of any comprehensive plan. Part of any "off leash" program
should be a common sense safety and responsibility program or
pamphlet which is procured with any dog license.
In summary, we need your help in putting together a program
which makes sense for the dog owners and not necessarily what is
convenient for the City of La Quinta, as this approach has been
proven not to work. We realize to implement any new parks will
take time to bring to fruition, but with the present intolerable
conditions some remedial action must be taken so that Animal Control
officers and responsible citizens are not at cross purposes. A
program of "off leash" or "dog friendly" hours in some of the existing
parks may be a baby step towards a more comprehensive program
and not engender much expense for the city.
