FROM:
Lisa Verner, Mayor's Office
Rick Still, Deputy Director, Parks Department
DATE:

RE:
Level of Service Standards for Parks
ISSUE
Adopt Ordinance establishing level of service (LOS) standards for parks and open space and
amending Ordinance 2207 adopting the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Plan to incorporate
the LOS standards.
BACKGROUND
The Administration is evaluating new sources of revenue for the City. One such source is
"impact fees" through which new growth helps to pay for capital facilities necessitated due to the
new growth. The Mayor has asked Lisa Verner to coordinate review and adoption of impact fees
by the end of2008.
The GrO\vth Management Act allows impact fees for parks services and for fire services, in
addition to the traffic impact fees the City has already enacted. In order to consider and adopt
impact fees, the City needs to have adopted a Parks master plan and an identified a level of
service goal for parks services.
DISCUSSION
The Parks Department has a new master plan, the "Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Plan".
This Plan \vas adopted June 23, 2008. Levels of service were not detailed in the adopted plan
and need to be identified.
Level of service standards need to be identified for the various types of parks. The standards
reflect the current state of parks and open space (what we have now) based on the current city
population. The LOS standards can be used to plan and project what amount of parks and opens
space will be needed based on anticipated future growth (approximately 6,000 new residents
through 2022).
The proposal is that the City keep the existing parks LOS and apply it to future growth. The
draft Level of Service standards are attached as Exhibit A.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Ordinance, which establishes level of service standards for parks and open space and
amends Ordinance 2207 adopting the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Plan to incorporate the
LOS standards.
