December 12, 2023 5a
CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP: WINN ROOM RENOVATION PROJECT – CITY COUNCIL WINN
ROOM SUBCOMMITTEE REPORT
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive an update from the City Council Winn Room Subcommittee and provide feedback.
BACKGROUND:
The Winn Room at the Coronado Library is highly utilized by many organizations. Originally constructed in 1973, the Winn Room has received only minimal renovations since its construction. Community groups and other users who use the space have voiced concerns that the room is outdated and requires audiovisual and information technology upgrades, improved lighting and acoustics, and should be enlarged to accommodate more occupants for larger events. In addition, the HVAC system, roof, electrical, chairs and restrooms all require replacement or significant updating. Current seating capacity of the Winn Room is 135 within 1,680 square feet of programmable space.
Prior City Council Direction
City Council authorized an agreement with M. W. Steele Group, Inc. in January 2020 to develop a feasibility study regarding design options and associated cost estimates ranging from basic/low, middle/medium, and “visionary”/high for the Winn Room renovation.
On June 3, 2020, a community stakeholder meeting was held and they discussed the shortcomings of the existing space and the desired improvements. Recommendations for the building’s exterior design suggested that the building should:
Be in alignment with the ambiance of the community as a whole and not so visually extravagant as to overshadow the existing Library and Park context. Fit in organically with the architecture of the existing Library building and respect the historic frontage of the original Spreckels Reading Room as a key element. Create a design that not only preserves North Spreckels Park and Memorial Garden but incorporates the improved design as part of the Winn Room renovation to activate the outdoor space in a community-pleasing and functional manner.
The community stakeholder group started with five concepts and eliminated a number of options and features. On November 17, 2020, the Council approved the community stakeholder group to solicit broad-based community input via public outreach and revisit the cost estimates for opportunities to reduce the total project budget. Subsequently, on March 24, 2021, two refined concepts were presented based upon stakeholder and community outreach feedback at an open public outreach town hall meeting via Zoom. The majority supported the Option B design concept version that steps into the park.
Attachment 1
City of Coronado Page 4
Attachment 3
On May 4, 2021, Library and Public Services & Engineering staff presented the results of the community outreach data to the City Council with a request to proceed with the schematic design phase for Option B. The City Council redirected staff to perform a needs assessment that clearly defines the types of uses and spaces needed in the community and an analysis of the community’s current meeting and performance space types and utilization.
On July 20, 2021, the Winn Room Subcommittee was created by the City Council to direct staff to create an Ad Hoc Subcommittee composed of Councilmember Heinze and Councilmember Tanaka, members from the Library and Public Services & Engineering (PSE) staff, and community stakeholders to provide guidance on a needs assessment and recommended remodel of the Winn Room; and if additional concept drawings are necessary, authorize the City Manager to contract with M. W. Steele group to create additional plans.
ANALYSIS:
The Winn Room City Council Subcommittee first convened on August 24, 2021 and has met a total of nine times. Attachment 1 summarizes the meetings and actions of the subcommittee. In December 2022, Councilmember Downey was appointed to the seat vacated by outgoing Councilmember Heinze.
The subcommittee conducted a thorough needs assessment of the Winn Room in partnership with staff, including representatives from the City Manager’s Office and Public Services & Engineering, Library Services and Recreation & Golf Services Departments. The needs assessment looked at the Winn Room and other available spaces with similar capacities to accommodate groups of 140 or more and use trends of City facilities that could accommodate those groups. The Committee recieved options for City investment to meet the current and future needs of our community.
While there are numerous public and private venues within Coronado that can accommodate groups of 140 or more, only three are within the direct control of the City: the Spreckels Center Grand Room, the Community Center Nautilus Room, and the Winn Room. A full list of public and private rental venues within Coronado is included in Attachment 3.
Winn Room Usage
The subcommittee looked at the usage of the Winn Room and what types of events are not able to be accommodated due to the size and Audio/Visual (A/V) limitations of the room. Attachment Attachment 1
City of Coronado Page 5
Attachment 3
2 contains an analysis of the current Winn Room use from May 2022 – April 2023. During that period, the Winn Room hosted approximately 420 events with 15,000 total attendees (11,600 from library staff and partnership events; 3,300 from community groups). There were 12 additional library events held off-site with 4,400 total attendees due to scheduling conflicts or space constraints of the Winn Room.
Usage of Other City-Owned Venues
The needs assessment also included an analysis of current City facility rental room capacities and usage, such as the Nautilus Room, JDSC Grand Room and Boathouse. It included usage by residents and non-residents, current cost recovery of those facilities, and how greater use of alternative rooms may impact the City’s rental revenues. The full analysis is included as Attachment 4.
The analysis shows there is an opportunity to move some programming from the Winn Room to the Nautilus Room during weekdays, as long as the events are not performance-related due to the less optimal acoustic conditions present in the Nautilus Room. The JDSC Grand Room had availability on weekend evenings; however, Recreation & Golf Services staff have recently added programming on Saturdays to the Grand Room to more fully serve the 50+ and senior community.
There is also community recognition of the Library as a valued gathering space within Coronado, providing a no cost option for community groups and enrichment programming for the arts that does not currently compete with other revenue generating room facility rentals.
Winn Room Design Options
In addition to the needs assessment the subcommittee developed and analyzed Winn Room remodel options. The following options were fully explored, with cost estimates developed for each1:
Winn Room Remodel Plan Options1 Cost Estimate
(Millions)
Option 1: Interior Upgrades $3.28
Option 2: Interior Upgrades and Elevate Ceiling $4.15
Option 3: Internal Expansion $6.44
Option 4: Larger Expansion (Original Concept B) $9.72
1 A fifth option was also explored, contemplating upgrades to the Grand Room at the Spreckels Center. Project costs were estimated at $1.72 million. Upon further analysis of the increasing usage of the Spreckels Center, the desire to continue to expand programming for the senior community, and in consideration of the subcommittee’s chief purpose to explore the Winn Room remodel, the option to renovate the Grand Room is considered ancillary.
Option 1 includes significant interior upgrades within the existing Winn Room footprint of 1,680 square feet. Option 2 raises the ceiling of the Winn Room and includes the interior upgrades outlined within Option 1 with no increase in square footage. Option 3 increases the size of the Winn Room to 2,316 square feet, raises the ceiling and slightly expands the footprint of the facility. Option 4 increases the size of the Winn Room to 2,931 square feet, raises the ceiling and expands the footprint of the facility with an optional outdoor deck.

Acoustical Environment and Screen Visibility
A study was conducted that provided a comparative analysis of the acoustical properties and the degree of visibility for event participants for each design option. The overarching design goal for the renovation of the Winn Room is to provide a well-controlled acoustical environment that would allow for good speech intelligibility and clarity for playback sources including music, and at least a neutral acoustic environment. For musical performances, it is important to control the acoustic energy in the room with sound absorption panels without making the room too acoustically dry or dead. A copy of the acoustics and visibility study is included in Attachment 6.
In general, the Winn Room remodel options will create an environment more suitable for live presentations, performances and interactive functions and gatherings. It will be possible but not optimal for cinema events. The primary issue is the difficulty in providing theater-caliber screen size due to the room’s architecture.
The acoustical engineering consultant ranked each of the four renovation options based on their ability to meet the acoustic goals as outlined above.
The results, in descending order, from best to least favorable, are as follows:
Option 4: Larger Expansion
Option 3: Internal Expansion
Option 2: Interior Upgrades and elevate ceiling
Option 1: Interior Upgrades
Attachment 1
City of Coronado Page 7
Attachment 3
Screen visibility was also analyzed to ascertain the viewing experience from the rear row. The results in descending order, from best to least favorable, are as follows:
Room Option Percentage of Screen Visibility
from rear row (staggered*)
Option 4: Larger Expansion (Concept B) 100%
Option 3: Internal Expansion 95%
Option 2: Interior Upgrades and Elevate the Ceiling 90% Option 1: Interior Upgrades 35%
*Staggered seating alternates chair alignment, allowing patrons improved sightlines in front of them.
At the December 12, 2023 Special City Council meeting, the subcommittee and staff will review the body of work accomplished by the subcommittee, including the needs assessment, existing City facility use and the four remodel options.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Cost estimates range from $3.28 – 9.72 million depending upon the plan option and associated amenities chosen for integration into the project. Costs to date for design development/architectural services and acoustics analysis are $92,158 and are budgeted in account 40070000–97320–19005. Depending upon direction from City Council, staff will ensure that any renovation project supported for the Winn Room will be coordinated with HVAC/roof repairs currently slated for the Winn Room in the Fiscal Year 2023/24 CIP to ensure that duplicative costs are minimized or eliminated.
ALTERNATIVE:
The City Council could direct staff to research additional planning options and/or provide additional direction on the renovation of the Winn Room.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT:
Once design options preferences have been identified, environmental review will be conducted.

WINN ROOM SUBCOMMITTEE COMMUNITY OUTREACH PLAN
RECOMMENDATION:
Review and revise as appropriate the draft Community Outreach Plan and direct staff to implement the plan to support inclusion and robust feedback in the Winn Room remodel project.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council met on December 12, 2023 and provided direction to staff to invite the public to future Winn Room Subcommittee meetings and engage in community outreach to ensure the public has the opportunity to participate and provide feedback to the Subcommittee on the scope of the project.
ANALYSIS:
To ensure effective outreach, staff has outlined specific public outreach methods, including those that have already been utilized on the project and additional potential outreach. Staff seeks feedback from the Subcommittee members on the methods to be employed.
Staff has already set up a Project Coronado website for the Winn Room to enable easy access to project information and email sign-ups. This includes:
Project Coronado Website and E-Notices
• Provide updates on project website and through e-updates (subscription sign up). • Custom contact email [email protected].
Targeted Emailing Lists
• The City has developed a targeted email list of community groups that regularly utilize the Winn Room. Staff sent email invitations to those groups notifying them of the Subcommittee’s meeting and will include them on any future meeting notices.
Staff would also continue to use City manager updates (E-blast and video), and social media to get word out to the public on engagement opportunities.
In addition to the aforementioned outreach methods, staff could implement the following:
Online Surveying
• Provide online form available to public to submit direct feedback on Winn Room project.
Outreach Materials with QR Codes
• Create QR code for Project Coronado website. Place QR Codes on posters and flyers to direct public to website and provide feedback.
News Media
• Select placement of advertisements in local newspapers preceding Winn Room Subcommittee meetings.
City of Coronado Page 12
Attachment 3
Public Workshop
• Staff could organize a public workshop to share the various plan options with the public and garner in person feedback on the options. The meeting could take place within the Winn Room and could be offered on the weekend.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient funding exists within the Public Communications budget within the City Manager’s Office to execute outreach as outlined within the report.
ALTERNATIVE:
The Subcommittee could choose to not conduct public outreach for the Winn Room project, or direct staff to conduct a combination of various methods as described.

CITY COUNCIL WINN ROOM SUBCOMMITTEE STAFF REPORT

WINN ROOM RENOVATION PROJECT – AVAILABILITY OF OUTSIDE VENUES RECOMMENDATION:
Receive report on availability and cost of select outside venues within the community.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council met on December 12, 2023 and provided direction to confirm the availability and cost of select external venues for partnership opportunities to offset events currently taking place in the Winn Room. Those venues include Lamb’s Players Theatre, Coronado Village Theater, Coronado Playhouse, and the Coronado School of the Arts (CoSA) Performing Arts Center.
ANALYSIS:
At the December 12, 2023 City Council meeting, City staff provided data on all of the publicly available meeting spaces within the City of Coronado, including City facilities, churches, commercial/non-profit venues, schools and hotels. Staff provided a full listing of facilities and venues to City Council which is included as Attachment 1.
Based on the list provided at that meeting, City Council then asked staff to gather additional information on outside venues that are not within the City’s direct control, specifically on Lamb’s Players Theatre, Coronado Village Theater, Coronado Playhouse, and the Coronado School of the Arts (CoSA) Performing Arts Center. Staff further explored the availability of those facilities, associated rental costs and the ability of those venues to accommodate events based on their current operations.
A summary of each outside venue, listed by seating capacity, follows.
Coronado Playhouse
Coronado’s oldest established community theater located at 1145 Strand Way.
Capacity seating without tables: 96.
Availability: Very limited.
The City’s current agreement with the Playhouse allows the City up to three (3) week-long periods available per year for City use with flexibility to schedule other City events when it’s not being used by the Playhouse. This limits the availability of this space as an alternative venue to the Winn Room. Currently, the Recreation and Golf Services Department utilizes the Playhouse for programming space approximately 12 times a year.
The Coronado Playhouse performance schedule is online through December 2024. Their shows are Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights and Saturday and Sunday matinees. Rentals have to work around rehearsals and set designs.
CUSD Black Box Theatre at Coronado High School
City of Coronado Page 14
Attachment 3
CUSD performance space located at 650 D Avenue.
Theatre capacity: 120 seated. Stage and A/V technology available.
Availability: Limited.
Coronado High School black box theater is available for rent through the Facilitron Rental Portal. Availability is subject to school usage. Rental rate is approximately $25 per hour plus additional charges for chairs, technology, and staffing. Reduced rate available depending on organization and event. A four-hour event for a nonprofit organization would cost approximately $271.
Coronado Vintage Village Theater
Privately owned movie theater located at 840 Orange Avenue.
Main auditorium seats 215 people. The stage is big enough for a small gathering of people.
Availability: Limited.
Showtime schedules have decreased since the pandemic and many afternoons on weekdays are open. Weekends are more of a challenge for rental, but weekend mornings are often available. Exclusive use of the entire venue would be more expensive. A four-hour event for the main auditorium would cost $1,500.
Lamb’s Players Theatre
Coronado’s local professional theater located at 1142 Orange Avenue.
Main Theatre capacity is 350 seats. Stage is available. Onsite A/V is available.
Availability: Very limited.
It is difficult to estimate the cost of hosting a four-hour event with Lamb’s robust production and rehearsal schedules the theatre availability is very limited. However, they are willing to discuss potential one-off usages if the event fits within their performance schedules. Costs of rental would vary, based on day of the week, nature of event and technical support needed. Events may have to work around rehearsals and set designs. Due to the inconsistent availability of this venue, it would not be a reliable optional venue.
Coronado Performing Arts Center Mainstage at Coronado High School Coronado School of the Arts (CoSA) is a public arts conservatory serving grades 9 through 12 located at 650 D Avenue.
Capacity: 570 seats. Stage and A/V technology available.
Availability: Currently limited, with potential to add additional programming dates.
CoSA is the only publicly owned state-of-the are theatre facility in Coronado. The facility is the primary venue for the Coronado School of the Arts and has a robust schedule of programming.
The district rents the facility based on excess availability after student usage is accommodated and uses an online scheduling program, Facilitron, to facilitate rentals. A four-hour event for a organization to rent the mainstage for four hours would cost approximately $850.
The City of Coronado has a Memorandum of Understanding with the Coronado Unified School District that allows free usage of CUSD facilities which include the Black Box Theatre and the Mainstage Theatre. The agreement allows the City to reserve facilities if they are not being used for student events. Since 2022, the City has reserved the Mainstage approximately 10 - 12 times a year for events sponsored by both the Coronado Public Library, the Cultural Arts Commission, and the City of Coronado.
City of Coronado Page 15
Attachment 3
Additional uses of CoSA include the Coronado Community Band that hold three weekly practices and the Coronado Island Film Festival (CIFF) that uses the Mainstage facility annually during the Film Festival in November for approximately three days.
CUSD has expressed a willingness to accommodate additional City and non-profit large events, but has stated that CUSD use takes precedence when allocating use of the venue.
Events Exceeding Winn Room Capacity
There were approximately 11 events since May 2022 that exceeded the Winn Room’s current capacity that required them to be moved to another facility. All were moved to CoSA, with the exception of two: Lisa See to the Nautilus Room and Geena Davis to the Hotel del Coronado. A listing of the displaced events is included in Attachment 2. All 11 events were spoken word events, rather than musical performances which typically take place at CoSA due to the superior acoustic quality of the auditorium.
Five of the larger events could have been accommodated by Winn Room Option 3 and six could have been accommodated by Winn Room Option 4. Five of the events exceeded the capacity of the Winn Room, regardless of the scope of the renovation proposed.
A summary of the capacities and cost of each Winn Room renovation option is listed below*:

* Option 1 includes significant interior upgrades within the existing Winn Room footprint of 1,680 square feet. Option 2 raises the ceiling of the Winn Room and includes the interior upgrades outlined within Option 1 with no increase in square footage. Option 3 increases the size of the Winn Room to 2,316 square feet, raises the ceiling and slightly expands the footprint of the facility.
Option 4 increases the size of the Winn Room to 2,931 square feet, raises the ceiling and expands the footprint of the facility with an optional outdoor deck.
Ability of Select Outside Venues to Accommodate Large Events Based on the sizes of the larger events historically displaced from the Winn Room, only the Village Theater and CoSA have potential availability, access, and capacity to accommodate those types of events. Further discussions would need to take place with both organizations to determine the true ability to partner with the City to accommodate larger community events within a reasonable budget.
RECOMMNEDATION:
Receive the report and provide direction to staff on these facilities or others in the community that might merit additional exploration.

March 20, 2024 Special Meeting Minutes Page 4 of 4
Morgan Miller provided comments regarding the rental cost and insurance cost for nonprofit organizations.
Harold Myers asked why the Winn Room is a free venue. Mr. Briley explained that libraries are state funded to host events, provided they are free to the public, and offering the room at no cost enables the library to run more programs. Councilmember Downey remarked that due to the scarcity of other free rental spaces in Coronado, the Winn Room experiences significant usage.
Jean Seager provided comments regarding that the Winn Room is open to the entire public, whereas a private room rental might not offer the same level of accessibility.
Merridee Brook provided comments regarding the limitations of various external venues.
City Manager Friend provided background on the various other projects in the City that could impact the Winn Room, including the recreational fee study and facility use policy.

CITY COUNCIL WINN ROOM SUBCOMMITTEE STAFF REPORT
April 24, 2024 5a
CITY FACILITY SCHEDULIGN CONSIDERATIONS
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive a report on City facilities including an inventory of facilities, how facilities are used, methods of scheduling, clarification of reservation systems, hours and staffing, facility use fees and costs, and a 5th remodel option that merges the capital investment and use of the Winn Room and the Grand Room at the John D Spreckels Center, and provide direction as appropriate.
BACKGROUND:
At the December 12, 2023 City Council meeting, City staff provided data and information on the City’s internal room assets, primarily the Nautilus Room at the Community Center, the Grand Room at the Spreckels Center, and the Club Room at the Boathouse.
The City Council directed staff to provide additional information on: how the Library and Recreation Departments manage the use and scheduling of City facilities and coordinate the utilization of the Nautilus Room or the Grand Room for requests not able to be accommodated at the Winn Room; the operational hours and staffing of various City facilities that may limit uses of City rooms; the fees and charges to use various City facilities; and possibility of capital investment in the Grand Room and Winn Room to develop a 5th remodel option that merges the use of the rooms.
This report addresses these queries in furtherance of the Winn Room Subcommittee’s Spring 2024 Workplan.
ANALYSIS:
A summary of each internal room asset, including capacities, typical uses, and fee considerations is listed below in Table A.

DETAILED ROOM ANALYSIS:
Nautilus Room at the Community Center
The Nautilus Room, often referred to as the Banquet Room, is the largest internal City room asset at 4,950 square feet. The Nautilus Room is managed by the Recreation & Golf Services Department and is typically utilized for weekend weddings and rentals (birthday parties, celebrations of life, baby showers, etc.), but is also utilized progressively more during the weekday afternoons for Recreation programs, particularly for youth. The current availability of the Nautilus Room is very limited due to pre-booked reservations, but any time not blocked off for Recreation programs, or currently booked, would be available for reservations.
It has been noted the acoustics of the Nautilus Room are not conducive to live music performances but are adequate for speaking engagements. Glass windows along the east and north wall, and a header for the moveable wall in the center of the room provide significant challenges to improve acoustics for a suitable performance space without a significant capital investment and detriment to the primary uses of the room.
City of Coronado Page 8
Attachment 3
Parking:
Parking at the Nautilus Room consists of shared spaces for the Community Center and City Hall, as well as street parking along Silver Strand Boulevard. During the weekdays, parking is impacted due to other uses around the Community Center and City Hall but is mostly available during the evenings and weekends. The total number of spaces in front of the Community Center equal 47 spaces and 4 handicap spaces. The total number of parking spaces in front of Glorietta Promenade and up until the entrance to City Hall is 46 spaces and 2 handicap spaces.
Library events at the Nautilus Room:
The Library moved one event to the Nautilus Room in the previous year.
Non-profit events at the Nautilus Room:
The Nautilus Room had 67 non-profit bookings between May 2022 and April 2023.
Pros as a Winn Room Alternate:
• With a seating capacity of almost 450 seats, the Nautilus Room is the best internal alternative for Library events which exceed the Winn Room capacity.
Cons as a Winn Room Alternate:
• The Nautilus Room is not located near the Library and there may be location confusion with Library event customers.
• Logistical hurdles for Library staff staging an event at a venue away from the Library.
Grand Room at the John D Spreckels Center
The Grand Room, located at the John D Spreckels Center (JDSC) adjacent to the Library, is 1,916 square feet in size. The JDSC was constructed in 2017 and is managed by the Recreation & Golf Services Department. A JDSC Operations Plan was approved by City Council in 2016 which spells out purpose and objectives of the facility:
• Program an activity and social-based center that is welcoming to the public at large, Coronado Senior Association, and Coronado Lawn Bowling Club. • Provide a location that caters to the 50+ age group.
• Increase the percentage of adults 50+ that use the facility. • Utilize the 4,500 plus hours per year the facility is available for programming and/or renting.
• To offer a self-supporting rental program.
• To support the Coronado Senior Association and Coronado Lawn Bowling Association.
The Grand Room has been increasingly utilized for Recreation programming and events for adults aged 50+ and most of the booking availability for the room is nights and weekend afternoons and evenings.
It has been noted the acoustics of the Grand Room are not conducive to live music performances due to glass windows along the east and west walls, hard flooring, and a header for the moveable wall in the center of the room. To improve acoustics in the room, a significant capital investment is required, including the removal of the moveable wall and header and acoustic treatments to the walls. The removal of the moveable wall would significantly impact the operations of the multipurpose functionality of the room, including displacing several Recreation programs on a weekly basis.
City of Coronado Page 9
Attachment 3
Parking:
The Grand Room at the John D Spreckels Center has parking limitations as there are no dedicated parking spaces for the facility.
Library events at the Grand Room:
The Library moved one event to the Grand Room the previous year.
Non-profit events at the Grand Room:
The JDSC Grand Room had 5 non-profit bookings between May 2022 and April 2023.
Pros as a Winn Room Alternate:
• The Grand Room is the most convenient City location to relocate a Library event due to the proximity of the JDSC to the Library.
• The Grand Room has a seating capacity of 176, providing a slightly larger space for hosting events (+41 seats).
Cons as a Winn Room Alternate:
• The Grand Room’s seating capacity of 176 does not provide significant additional space to accommodate Library programs or events that cannot be accommodated in the Winn Room due to capacity.
• There are only 140 chairs available at the Grand Room, requiring additional chairs to be transported to the center to achieve the capacity.
• Several Recreation programs in the Grand Room routinely have over 50 attendees, or are partnership programs with other groups, such as the Coronado Senior Association or Sharp Hospital. Displacing attendees who have signed up for a program at a specific facility for a Library event may cause apprehension in the future for participants to register for the programs.
• The Grand Room has a room divider that is used to separate the Grand Room into two smaller rooms. The room divider significantly reduces the room’s acoustic quality and was recommended for removal in a capital improvement project if the objective is to improve the acoustic performance to host a greater range of events. However, the room divider is critical to the successful operation of the Center. Often, incompatible uses need to be scheduled in the Grand Room, and the room divider provides a physical separation to allow both uses to take place simultaneously. Accordingly, the room acoustics cannot be improved as recommended without reducing functionality and use.
Club Room at the Boathouse
The Club Room is a 1,200 square foot venue with unrivaled views of Glorietta Bay. The Club Room is managed by the Recreation & Golf Services Department and serves as the primary location for summer camps, programming for young adults with disabilities, and some smaller youth Recreation programs. The Club Room availability during the summer season is limited to weekends only, but during other seasons, is often available several weekdays and evenings, along with weekends. The current availability of the Club Room is limited due to pre-booked reservations, but any time not blocked off for Recreation programs, or currently booked, would be available for reservations.
The acoustics of the Club Room have not been evaluated, but due to its materials that are similar to the Grand Room such as hard vinyl tile flooring and a glass wall, musical performances are likely to not achieve high quality sound.
City of Coronado Page 10
Attachment 3
Parking:
The Club Room has 15 dedicated parking spaces, as well as additional parking along Glorietta Bay Park and street parking along Silver Strand Blvd.
Library use at the Club Room:
No Library events were moved to the Club Room in the previous year.
Non-profit events at the Club Room:
The Club Room had 5 non-profit bookings between May 2022 and April 2023.
Pros as a Winn Room Alternate:
• Dedicated parking spaces allow participants at smaller events not to search for parking.
Cons as a Winn Room Alternate:
• Smaller than the Winn Room, the Club Room has a seating capacity of only 75 seats, which does not provide enough additional space to accommodate Library programs or events that cannot be accommodated in the Winn Room due to capacity. • The Club Room is not located near the Library and there may be location confusion with Library event customers.
Winn Room at the Library
The Winn Room at the Library is 1,680 square feet in size, is managed by the Library Department and is highly utilized by many community organizations, including the Library, for events and programs.
Parking:
The Library has the same parking limitations as the John D Spreckels Center with no dedicated parking spaces for the facility.
Non-Profit events:
The Winn Room had 69 non-profit bookings between May 2022 and April 2023. • No non-profit events were relocated due to size considerations. • The Library did not receive any non-profit requests that were anticipated to be too large for the Winn Room.
• The Library has not received any correspondence concerning non-profit events that did not book the Winn Room due to size constraints.
• There have been anecdotal reports that members of the community using the online booking system for the Library have not been able to schedule their non-profit event at the time they want.
Pros of Winn Room:
• The Winn Room is in the Library and the natural location for Library events. • Programs that the Library schedules can be accommodated in the number of Library spaces available, which include the Winn Room, Ruby Room, and Historic Spreckels Reading Room.
• All events relocated to an outside venue have been relocated due to seating capacity or acoustic considerations, as opposed to scheduling considerations.
City of Coronado Page 11
Attachment 3
Cons of Winn Room:
• Outdated space with poor condition of the flooring, wiring, A/V, and acoustics. • Poor visibility due to the low ceiling height.
• Between May 2022 and April 2023, 15 events held in the Winn Room were at capacity including 4 events that were standing room only.
• Staff have reported it is not uncommon for participants to leave or not to enter signature events due to crowding.
• Between May 2022 and April 2023, 9 events were relocated to the Library grass lawn for seating capacity reasons (typically larger children’s events or musical groups where the performers would occupy a lot of the available seating capacity in the Winn Room). • Some events have historically been relocated to the Library lobby for acoustics reasons. • Seating capacity for greater than 200 is a recognized regional threshold to accommodate higher profile library events. With a seating capacity of 135 at the Winn Room, several events each year must be relocated to an alternate location offsite, listed below in Table B.

Coronado School of the Arts (CoSA)
While this is a report on internal City facilities, it is worth noting that the first priority for Library staff when looking for an outside venue is to check the availability of CoSA. The City of Coronado and Coronado Unified School District have a Joint Use Agreement that provides the City access to the CoSA auditorium. Of the eleven events moved offsite listed in Table B, eight were at CoSA, one at the Nautilus Room, and one at the Grand Room. Requests to use CoSA are made by staff using the school’s online booking software, Facilitron.
Pros as Winn Room Alternate:
• Geographic proximity next door to the Library.
• Good acoustics and visibility properties.
• Fixed seating for minimal set up considerations.
• Seating capacity up to 570.
City of Coronado Page 12
Attachment 3
Cons as Winn Room Alternate:
• Not controlled by City of Coronado.
• The parameters for use of CoSA need to be more well-defined in the Joint Use Agreement. • Coronado School District programs take priority over all use. • School policy or personnel subject to change and therefore lack of consistency.
COORDINATION OF ROOMS/SCHEDULING SOFTWARE:
The next area of consideration is the Recreation & Golf Services and Library Departments facility reservation systems and coordination and if improvements are possible.
The mission of the Coronado Public Library is to meet the informational, recreational, and cultural needs of the community and to actively promote reading, life-long learning, and the pursuit of knowledge.
The mission of the Coronado Recreation & Golf Services Department is to promote community, health, and safety while building a culture of excellence.
Both departments seek to develop the holistic well-being of individuals in the community, yet the programs and strategies employed by each department are unique. The Library seeks to provide program offerings which tend to be more educational, along with nonprofit community gatherings and meeting space typically open to the public, whereas Recreation seeks to provide more fitness, enrichment, and social opportunities, along with facility use geared towards exclusive use.
The Recreation & Golf Services Department launched a new registration and reservation software program within the previous year called CivicRec, replacing the previous system, PerfectMind, which was widely criticized as a confusing and complicated system. CivicRec is an enterprise system for the Recreation & Golf Services Department and allows the department to manage all user accounts, track accounting for all user transactions, process point of sale transactions, provide an online catalog of Recreation program offerings including registration options, and allow for facility management, including facility reservations. The public-facing calendar module of the CivicRec program shows availability for facilities but does not show the details of any bookings.
For a member of the public or nonprofit organization to reserve a Recreation facility, they must first create an account on CivicRec to submit a request on the system for the specific room, date, and time. To search availability, an account is not required. The reservation request must be accompanied by a $25 application fee. Once the reservation is submitted online, a staff member of the Recreation & Golf Services Department will respond to the inquiry within 1 business day to begin discussions on details and additional potential requirements needed for the reservation, including insurance and security deposits.
Residents and Library staff booking any library space, including the Winn Room, use a software known as Library Market. No fee is required to make a reservation. Library Market has the ability to validate for library cardholders and prefill patron information during program registration. It allows for event sign up, automatically emails reminders to participants, maintains and automatically manages a waitlist, ensuring reliable communication with customers while reducing staff time. Room set up options and available equipment can be selected by the customer online.
Library Market offers integrated room and time management tools for event planning for both staff and public and is used as a promotional tool for events.
City of Coronado Page 13
Attachment 3
CivicRec and Library Market are meeting the needs of their respective departments and there are no plans for change based upon operational need.
There are very few occasions per year on which an event would not be able to be accommodated at the facility originally requested. Known instances (two) where events were moved into different facilities are Library events that were too large to fit into the Winn Room. Accordingly, there have been very few examples of cross-departmental coordination to accommodate an event.
With the booking options for both Recreation and Library rooms available online, staff from either department can check availability online. If additional questions arise, or if the booking needs to be made imminently, then staff from one department will contact an appropriate staff member from the other department for clarification or to place an administrative hold. The examples involved the Library Director coordinating requests with the Director of Recreation & Golf Services Department; however, line-level staff can be trained and empowered to work collaboratively to accommodate these requests.
FACILITY HOURS AND STAFFING:
The Coronado Public Library is currently open to the public during the following hours:
Monday – Thursday: 9:30 a.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Friday: 9:30 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
Saturday: 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
Sunday: 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
The Coronado Community Center (location of Nautilus Room) is currently open to the public during the following hours:
Monday – Friday: 7:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.
Saturday: 7:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Sunday: 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
The John D Spreckels Center (location of Grand Room) is currently open to the public during the following hours:
Monday – Thursday: 8:30 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.
Friday: 8:30 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Saturday: 9:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Sunday: CLOSED
The Club Room at the Boathouse is not open as a drop-in facility, therefore only open when programmed for Recreation activities or when reserved.
The hours of operation for the Recreation facilities do not restrict use; however, any use outside of normal hours of operation will require the scheduling of staff, which include staffing charges for the user. Additionally, to provide exceptional customer service, Recreation facility fees are inclusive of staffing to help facilitate the set-up and successful operation of the rental.
The City Council inquired if the City should consider expanding hours of facilities and adding staff support to provide more options for reservable space. As all reservation requests for City facilities have been accommodated, and at the facilities initially requested, staff do not find there is a demonstrated needs for an increase in facility hours and staffing. There has been limited anecdotal information that some reserving parties were not able to reserve the date and time wished for, but with a first-come, first-serve reservation system, full availability cannot be guaranteed, and all reservation requests were accommodated on other dates/times.

FEE POLICIES:
Recreation
The City Council-approved Recreation Services Facility Use Fees and Policies document (attached) provides definitions of user classifications, regulations and requirements of facility use, and specific fees for each facility/classification in the Recreation & Golf Services Department inventory.
Reservation lead times are more accessible for residents and most nonprofit organizations at 24 months, opposed to 14 months for non-resident and commercial users.
Total non-profit revenue for the Recreation and Golf Services Department during the survey period was $15,424.
All City of Coronado events and programs, including Library-sponsored events, have no fees associated with the use; however, if any event requires staffing after normal hours of operation, the additional staff time will be noted for future reference to account for the true cost of providing the service to the community.
Coronado special interest groups with at least 75% Coronado members may use the Club Room Classroom, the Grand Room, the Abalone Room, or the Sand Dollar Room at no charge, with a limit of 4 uses per year. Additional conditions include a 3-hour maximum rental, use limited to Mondays – Thursdays, and a clear identification of public benefit. This benefit does not apply to the Nautilus Room.
The Recreation & Golf Services Department is currently drafting a revision of the Facility Use Fees and Policies document for clarity, consistency, and fairness to be presented to City Council in Summer 2024.
Library
The Coronado Public Library was established under the California Education Code, which states under section 18960: “Every library established pursuant to this chapter shall be forever free to the inhabitants and nonresident taxpayers of the municipality”.
Library and library sponsored events are free services as part of the organization’s commitment to free access to information and ideas for all users. Free use for all other eligible users of the room is a longstanding Library Board policy for the Winn Room. Policy 12 of the Library Board of Trustees states: “The Library does not charge a fee for use of the Winn Room”.
Library Board policy also states that the room may not be used except for non-profit community benefit uses.
FINDINGS:
Upon evaluation of all aspects of the City facilities, including fee considerations, availability, current primary uses, and documented needs, staff developed key findings which are summarized below.
City of Coronado Page 15
Attachment 3
Winn Room Alternates
• CoSA is recommended as the best alternate space for Library events that are expected to exceed Winn Room capacity. With a capacity of 570, auditorium style seating, a performance-oriented acoustic environment and close proximity to the Library, CoSA is considered the first priority for alternate space.
• Due to the many positive benefits of utilizing CoSA as the first priority for an alternate facility for signature Library events, the City could consider a refinement of the Joint Use Agreement with Coronado Unified School District to provide more reliable access and streamlined booking of the facility.
• The Nautilus Room is the best internal alternate to the Winn Room and is most suited for speaker, not musical performance, events.
• The Club Room does not provide enough seating to be an alternate facility for the Winn Room and should not be considered as a viable option.
5 th Remodel Option (Grand Room / Winn Room Merged Uses) • The Grand Room has acoustical limitations, and the space is used primarily as a multipurpose room. Any treatments to improve the acoustics of the room, outside of minor audio and visual equipment upgrades, would require material changes to the functionality of the room. The room divider has been noted to cause negative audio and visual impacts for performances or film screenings. The room divider is vital to the successful operations of the room as a multipurpose space.
• Project costs for improving the Grand Room Audio/Visual equipment and including motorized blackout shades are estimated at $1.72 million, which do not include the removal of the moveable wall and divider. The benefits gained from Grand Room upgrades include slightly improved experience over the Winn Room for sightlines and a marginal gain in seating over the Winn Room. The drawbacks of investing in the Grand Room Audio/Visual equipment are there are no additional acoustic improvements, it does not address the Winn Room deferred issues, the room still does not meet a seating capacity threshold of 200.
• Given the limited amount of seating capacity gained and acoustical challenges unless the Grand Room functionality is modified with detrimental impacts, staff would not recommend the 5th remodel option of merging the uses of the two rooms.
Nonprofit Organizations Accommodated
• There are no documented instances of nonprofit organization reservation requests not being accommodated due to size or clarity in availability for either the Winn Room or Recreation facilities.
Library and Recreation Facility Scheduling Software
• Recreation and the Library have unique missions and fee directives for their facilities. Each department’s reservation platform is tailored for their mission and have different functionality and scale. Both reservation systems have transparent portals that allow for online viewing of facility availability.
• Staff considered whether a merger of reservation systems was warranted. Given the widely varying demands for functionality, the marginal benefit of having one reservation system was vastly outweighed by the cost, logistics and time entailed in merging. At this time, moving to a single platform is not warranted.
• To facilitate additional transparency and ease of access, however, the City could create a reservation landing page on the City’s website to direct any potential requester for facility reservations to Recreation facilities and Library facilities.
City of Coronado Page 16
Attachment 3
Library and Recreation Facility Coordination
• The current Council-authorized Fee Policy for Recreation facilities allows for Library events, as City-sponsored events, to utilize Recreation facilities at no cost. • In the two instances where a reservation moved from one department’s facility to the other (library events moved to Nautilus and Grand Rooms), Library and Recreation staff effectively managed that transition with minimal effort. Additional training for line-level staff will continue to provide successful coordination. No system or process changes are recommended.
Facility Hours and Staffing
• All reservation requests for City facilities have been accommodated, and at the facilities initially requested.
• There have been anecdotal reports that members of the community using the online booking system for the Library have not been able to schedule their non-profit event at the time they want.
• Recreation allows rental of its facilities outside of normal operating hours. The reserving entities pays for staff presence during the event.
• The Library has accommodated some reservations slightly before or after operating hours so long as staff are present in the building.
• Staff do not find there is significant and ongoing demand for additional access to facilities that would necessitate increasing hours and staffing.

Shaun Briley, Director of Library Services, and Tim Farmer, Director of Recreation and Golf Services, jointly presented the staff report utilizing PowerPoint.
Chair Tanaka highlighted that the City Council had asked staff to explore the possibility of using the John D. Spreckels Center Grand Room as is, and to evaluate the financial implications of any potential upgrades.
Councilmember Downey asked for more specificity regarding displacement of recreation program participants in the Subcommittee’s report to Council.
Councilmember Downey noted that even with the largest remodel, the City would likely require using the Coronado School of Arts (CoSA) venue for well-attended author events.
Mr. Briley explained that although events at CoSA have drawn over 500 attendees, a successful author event is around 200 attendees. If held in the Winn Room, such events would likely reach capacity, but would not necessarily lead to utilizing the CoSA venue.
City Manager Tina Friend asked Mr. Briley to detail the financial operations of author events. Mr. Briley elaborated that authors and publishers usually do not pay for venue use during book signings, and venues often vie to host popular authors.
Councilmember Downey noted concerns about a recent author event where a non-local bookstore handled book sales, inquiring whether local bookstores could be given priority.
Mr. Briley indicated that publishers prefer larger retailers over local options due to higher sales volumes elsewhere in the San Diego area.
Chair Tanaka noted the City’s preference for hosting public events at no cost but expressed concerns about external entities profiting from free room rentals. He suggested creating a policy to limit or prohibit sales at events utilizing the Winn Room, with exceptions for author events. Mr. Briley stated that the library already prohibits sales, except during author and music events.
Councilmember Downey highlighted issues with the Recreation and Golf Services reservation system, which does not automatically offer non-profit rates as the Winn Room reservation system does. Mr. Farmer explained that staff must manually verify eligibility to ensure the correct rates are applied, as the fee policy varies across seven rate classifications.
Discussion ensued regarding adding additional details in the report about the operating hours of facilities and their availability for events,
whether the Club Room booking hours were listed in the CivicRec reservation system, City of Coronado Page 9

and requesting staff to investigate ways to improve the acoustics of the John D. Spreckels Center Grand Room without removing the room divider, and with minimal investment.
Dawn Richards provided comments regarding the seat capacity limitations on performers and availability of the Winn Room.
Marvin Heinze provided comments regarding a landing page for all City venues and enhancing utilization of the Coronado School of Arts (CoSA) venue.
Sharon Hall provided comments regarding availability limitations of the CoSA venue and City non-library venues for library events.
Carl Luna, President of Friends of the Library, provided comments regarding utilization of outside venues by the library and requested long term Memorandum of Understanding (MOUs) that would ensure availability of other venues.
Phil Garn, Coronado Island Film Festival, provided comments regarding the long-term investment of updating the Winn Room and limitations of the current audio/visual system.
Councilmember Downey asked for information on what internal venue uses are and how it affects the availability of rooms.
City Manager Friend noted that the next Subcommittee meeting will be held on May 16 discussing accessibility, acoustic properties, and environmental impact of expansion of the Winn Room, including relocation or replacement of trees.
Chair Tanaka noted that the maximum seating capacity can be reduced if a performer required a stage or large floor space for events and asked staff to investigate what a room capacity would look like with a modestly sized music performance.

WINN ROOM REMODEL AND LIBRARY PARK TREES
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive a report on trees potentially affected by the Winn Room Remodel concepts and analysis of options for replacement and transplant.
BACKGROUND:
At the City Council’s December 12, 2023 discussion of Winn Room remodel options, the Council requested additional information regarding the impact to nearby trees for each of the conceptual design options. The Winn Room Subcommittee requested information regarding options to replace or transplant any displaced trees, including costs.
ANALYSIS:
Of the four Winn Room remodel options, two were found to directly impact City trees to the point of extensive root mitigation and/or the need to completely remove the trees.
Trees must be given ample space for their canopies to spread and root system to absorb water.
The threshold for root mitigation, according to International Society of Arboriculture, is six times the diameter of the tree trunk. Staff researched replacement and transplant options for trees affected by the two Winn Room concepts.
Option Three, the “Internal Expansion” would require the removal and or transplant of one tree:
Tree 5, a Canary Island Pine. Removal or transplant would be necessary because this concept expands the Winn room to fill the existing gap between the two buildings in which the Pine resides.
City of Coronado Page 12
Attachment 3
Option Four, the “Larger Expansion” would require the removal and or transplant of five trees: an Evergreen Coral, two New Zealand Christmas, a Canary Island Pine, and a Cajeput/Melaleuca tree. The proximity of the expansion would directly impact the nearby trees’ root system and encroach on their canopies.
All impacted trees were evaluated in August of 2021 and were rated as low risk and in fair to good health. The lean on Tree 4, the Cajeput/Melaleuca, does not make it an ideal transplant candidate and would be best to get replaced or substituted with a species from the Approved Street Tree List. Replacement would also be a better option for Tree 1, the Evergreen Coral, that has a history of losing branches.
Transplanting trees are only guaranteed at the first stage by the contractor, but the long-term survivability of the transplanted tree is based on ongoing maintenance by City staff. Maintenance and care encompass hand watering, providing nutrients, checking the guying system for stability, inspection for disease, monitoring during rain and heavy winds, Arborist evaluations for progress, and pest management. The prices in the Fiscal Impact section below are only to relocate the trees within proximate City property, which would include the Library and Spreckels Center property. Extra costs would incur if trees were to get transported to a different location. There are three vacant sites in front of the Spreckels Center, which can accommodate the transplanted trees. The remaining two trees would need a different location outside of the existing property to accommodate the large sized tree box.
Replacement of the five impacted trees would come in the size of a thirty-six inch to forty-eightinch box trees handpicked by City staff for quality and structural integrity. Replacements would be planted in three vacant tree sites in front of Spreckels Center near Orange Ave and or at a City City of Coronado Page 13
Attachment 3
park where new trees could be given ample canopy space. The remaining two trees would need to be relocated to a different site and/or planted in the parkway on Sixth St and D Ave.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The replacement and transplant costs for each tree are detailed in the following table.
ESTIMATED REPLACEMENT COSTS (48 inch box)
Tree 1 – Evergreen Coral $19,500
Tree 2 - New Zealand Christmas $16,000
Tree 3 – New Zealand Christmas $16,000
Tree 4 – Cajeput / Melaleuca $12,500
Tree 5 – Canary Island Pine $16,000
Irrigation and Sod repairs $500
Total Estimated Replacement Cost $80,500
ESTIMATED TRANSPLANT COST
Tree 1 – Evergreen Coral $30,000
Tree 2 – New Zealand Christmas $17,000
Tree 3 – New Zealand Christmas $20,000
Tree 4 – Cajeput / Melaleuca $6,500
Tree 5 – Canary Island Pine $30,000
Maintenance and Care Cost (4 years) $47,000
Irrigation and Sod repairs $1,200
Total Estimated Transplant and Maintenance Cost $151,700 Remodel Option 4, the Larger Expansion, would cost $80,500 to $151,700 to replace or transplant the five affected trees including maintenance, care, irrigation, and sod repair costs.
Remodel Option 3, the Internal Expansion, would cost $16,000 to $30,000 to replace or transplant one affected tree, plus approximately $500 to $9,640 in maintenance, care, irrigation and sod repair costs.

WINN ROOM REMODEL ACCESSIBILITY CONSIDERATIONS
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive report regarding accessibility considerations with the Winn Room, including audio/visual support.
BACKGROUND:
On December 12, 2023, the City Council held a Special City Council meeting on the Winn Room Renovation Project. After review, public comment, and discussion, the Council requested additional information regarding the accessibility requirements for each of the conceptual design options.
ANALYSIS:
At the December 12, 2023 City Council meeting, City staff provided concept plans and visual representations of four potential design solutions for the Winn Room. In addition, an alternative option focusing solely on upgrading the audio-visual setup at the John D. Spreckels Center (JDSC) was presented.
The City of Coronado maintains a strong commitment and history of providing accessible services to the community and the public. To ensure compliance, all design options will conform to the provisions described in the current adopted editions of the California Building Code (CBC) applicable to state and local governments as well as the prevailing 2010 American with Disabilities Act (ADA) federal civil rights law. In the event of conflicting requirements, the most stringent policy will be applied.
Staff researched the accessibility requirements classified under “alterations” according to the CBC and ADA for Options 1 and 2 while Options 3 and 4 were assessed under the scope of “new addition construction.”
Attachment 1 describes the accessibility obligations for each design option.
The City Council was also interested in audio/visual accessibility support. The City maintains portable audio systems for attendees with hearing impairment, which would be available for any of the remodel options. Sightlines to screens, in consideration of access to subtitle or close captioning text, was a major consideration in evaluation of the remodel options. All but Option 1 resulted in much improved screen visibility, as measured from the back row:
▪ Option 1: 35% of screen height visible from back row
▪ Option 2: 90% of screen height visible from back row
▪ Option 3: 95% of screen height visible from back row
▪ Option 4: 100% of screen height visible from back row City of Coronado Page 25
Attachment 3
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Barrie & Company, Inc., prepared a preliminary construction budget in October 2023 inclusive of accessibility considerations using the following assumptions. For Options 1 and 2, encompassing interior renovations exclusively, the budget included all accessible elements from the primary entrance to the area of alteration, Winn Room assembly space. This includes the entry/exit door, restrooms, drinking fountain (already compliant), fire alarm, and signs. All exterior work and broader accessibility improvements for the entire library were excluded. At the discretion of the Building Official, the City might be mandated to undertake additional access compliance scope (exterior work) up to 20% of the adjusted alteration cost as identified in Attachment 1. For Options 3 and 4 involving the expansion of the current building as an addition, the budget included full compliance with accessibility standards for the primary path of travel. This encompasses work from accessible parking spaces or public right of way to the area of alteration.

WINN ROOM REMODEL ACOUSTIC PROPERTIES
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive report regarding the acoustical properties of Winn Room renovation options.
BACKGROUND:
On December 12, 2023, the City Council held a Special City Council meeting on the Winn Room Renovation Project. City staff provided concept plans and visual representations of four potential design solutions for the Library Winn Room which included general acoustic information from a study prepared by an acoustical consultant from the firm, Salas O’Brien. The study is provided as Attachment 1. After review, public comment, and discussion, the City Council requested additional information regarding the possible acoustic treatments available for each of the conceptual design options, including the acoustical properties of the JDSC Grand Room and the expenses associated with the removal of the room divider header.
This report addresses these queries in furtherance of the Winn Room Subcommittee’s Spring 2024 Workplan.
ANALYSIS:
The design goal as described by the City’s acoustical engineering consultant, Salas O’Brien, is to provide a well-controlled acoustical environment that would allow for good speech intelligibility and clarity for playback sources, including music, and at least a neutral acoustic environment.
For musical performances, the report emphasizes the importance of controlling the acoustic energy in the room using sound absorption materials to achieve a balance between preventing excessive reverberation (echoes) and avoiding an overly dry or dead acoustic environment.
The acoustical consultant ranked each of the four design solutions in descending order from best to least favorable as follows:
Option 4: Larger Expansion
Option 3: Internal Expansion
Option 2: Interior Upgrades and elevate ceiling
Option 1: Interior Upgrades
The ranking above reflects the inclusion of acoustical treatments to the walls and ceilings of each room concept. Attachment 2 summarizes the acoustics ranking of each option and details the recommended sound attenuation measures for the walls, ceiling and floors, from acoustic drapes and panels to sound insulation systems.
It is important to note that Options 1-4 and the JDSC room alternative contemplates small to intermediate sized musical groups. Given the core architecture of the Winn Room and Grand Room that will not be changed under any remodel Option, larger musical performances would not be acoustically suitable for these spaces.

FISCAL IMPACT:
A cost estimator, Barrie & Company, Inc., provided a preliminary construction budget in October 2023 for the acoustic enhancements that range from approximately $130,000 to $160,000 for Options 1 through 4 and the JDSC Grand Room. The estimates are based upon the information provided in the table in Attachment 2.

WINN ROOM, CORONADO, CA
UPDATE NOVEMBER 20, 2023
INTRODUCTION
The City of Coronado is considering five different options for the remodel or renovation of the Winn Room. The purpose of this report is to provide analysis and comparison between the different options with regard to acoustics and projection screens. The scope of this report is to provide the following information:
Acoustic recommendations for each of the 5 current room configuration options to determine the materials, quantities and costs involved in order to make a comparison.
Sightline studies and screen sizing analysis for each of the 5 current room options.
This version of the report has been modified from previous versions in that the option numbers and descriptions have changed. The new options are listed in order of overall project cost with #1 being the least expensive and option #4 being the most expensive.
ACOUSTICAL CONSIDERATIONS AND EVALUATION
The Winn Room is planned for presentations, speaking engagements, and a wide range of music performance styles that fall into two primary categories. The first performance style would be music that is played through a PA system such as high-quality musical events of various genres. This style would rely on the sound system to provide sound coverage to the seats. However, poor room acoustics (which are typically caused by excessive reverberation and reflections) will reduce the sound quality, even with a good system. The other type of performance would not use a PA system to reinforce the sound. This could be a small instrumental ensemble, a vocal choir, medium size orchestra, local community or school orchestra or concert band, or other similar un-amplified performance.
The biggest challenge with any of these types of performances is that music will produce a relatively high level of acoustic energy that needs to be controlled or managed. Because all the options for this Attachment 1
City of Coronado Page 30
Attachment 3
Winn Room | salasobrien.com 2
room are small when compared to a typical music venue, sound will tend to be loud in this space. In general, the larger the physical volume of the room, the better it can help manage that acoustic energy.
The design goal for this room would be to provide a well-controlled acoustical environment that would allow for good speech intelligibility and clarity for playback sources including music, and at least a neutral acoustic environment. From a music performance standpoint, it will be important to control the acoustic energy in the room with some sound absorption without making the room too acoustically dry or dead.
Option #1: Winn Room Interior Upgrade within the Existing Footprint. This option is the basis from which each other option will be evaluated. This option is the smallest in terms of acoustic volume (ceiling height) and, because of this attribute, will be the most difficult. This option would ideally have some amount of sound absorption on the walls and ceiling to control reflections and reverberation.
However, this option is mostly windows that will reflect sound.
When looking at this option, most of the walls are glass or have doors in the walls. As such, there are no practical opportunities to provide sound absorption panels on the walls. For the ceiling, we would recommend some amount of sound absorption if possible. We recommend, at a minimum, an acoustical tile ceiling with high NRC (Noise Reduction Coefficient) ceiling panels.
Option #2: Winn Room Interior Upgrades and Elevate Ceiling. This design option will have an increased volume (higher ceiling) and therefore a slight increase in the amount of reverberation in the space in addition to the larger acoustic volume. Windows are larger so there will be more reflections.
This larger volume room will provide improved acoustics for some music performances but will come with some challenges. As with option #1, the small footprint of the room will significantly limit the size of the performance group.
Most of the walls are glass or have doors in the walls. However, because of the raised ceiling height, there will be drywall finished walls along the left side of the room above the doors where a strip of 4’x4’ acoustical panels can be installed. We recommend a total of 10 panels creating a 40’ long band of 160 sf of 2” thick fabric wrapped sound absorbing panels be installed on this wall.
Approximate materials only cost (not including installation labor) for this option would be $5,000.
For the ceiling in this space, we recommend a minimum of high NRC acoustical tile. A step up from acoustic tile could include a ceiling cloud system, a perforated metal or wood slat ceiling system with sound absorption above the perforated metal or slats.
Option #3: Winn Room Internal Expansion: This design option is another large room that will require additional sound absorption materials to control reverberation and reflections. Of the 5 options, this one is the second-best option due to the room size although the footprint size and ceiling height is not quite as high as option #4.
Most of the walls are glass or have doors in the walls. However, because of the raised ceiling height, there will be drywall finished walls along the left side of the room above the doors where a strip of 4’x4’ acoustical panels can be installed. We recommend a total of 10 panels creating a 40’ long band of 160 sf of 2” thick fabric wrapped sound absorbing panels be installed on this wall.

Approximate materials only cost (not including installation labor) for this option would be $5,000.
For the ceiling in this space, we recommend a minimum of high NRC acoustical tile. A step up from acoustic tile could include a ceiling cloud system, a perforated metal or wood slat ceiling system with sound absorption above the perforated metal or slats.
Option #4: Winn Room Larger Expansion. This design option is a much larger room with much higher ceilings and a greater amount of glass. This room will be the most reverberant of all options but can still perform well (acoustically) as long as sound absorption products are designed in conjunction with the architecture and installed in the ceiling and on the walls. The higher ceiling and windows will make the room feel open and should work the best of all options for acoustic performance such as a string or wind ensemble, or vocal group.
Due to the large number of windows on the right side and rear walls, it appears that only the left wall is an option for sound absorption panels. The drywall wall surfaces could provide up to approximately 384 square feet of acoustical panels that can be installed on the left side wall.
Approximate materials only cost (not including installation labor and materials) for this option would be $11,000. For the ceiling in this space, we would recommend a minimum of high NRC acoustical tile. A step up from acoustic tile could include a ceiling cloud system, a perforated metal or wood slat ceiling system with sound absorption above the perforated metal or slats.
Option Alternate: John D. Spreckels Center (JDSC) Grand Room Audio Visual Upgrades. This option has a slightly larger footprint (with a much higher ceiling) and will require a similar approach to installing sound absorption to control reverberation and reflections. Because this room is larger, it will require more sound absorption. The obstruction of the room dividing wall header that splits the room into two spaces will make this space extremely problematic for any type of acoustical music performance. Because of this item, this is the worst room of the 5 options.
When looking at this option, there appears to be a mixture of drywall walls and glass. The drywall wall surfaces could provide up to approximately 544 square feet of acoustical panels that can be installed on the side walls (128 sf each side) and 288 sf on the back wall. Approximate materials only cost (not including installation labor) for this option would be $15,000. For the ceiling in this space, we would recommend a minimum of high NRC acoustical tile. A step up from acoustic tile could include a ceiling cloud system, a perforated metal or wood slat ceiling system with sound absorption above the perforated metal or slats.
The following is a subjective rating for each of the rooms in their current designs, considering their acoustical performance on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the ideal is:
• Option #4 – Larger Expansion: 4
• Option #3 – Internal Expansion: 3
• Option #2 – Elevate Ceiling: 3
• Option #1 – Interior Upgrades: 2
• Alternate Option – Grand Room AV Upgrades: 1

PROJECTION OR LED SCREEN SIZE COMPARISON AND EVALUATION Display Type
For a room that is intended to support a wide variety of community type functions, there are generally two types of video screens that can be used for video support of functions in the room. Those two types are Front Projection and Direct View LED. The aspects and pros/cons of each of these video display formats are as follows:
• Front Projection
• Uses a video projector, generally mounted from the ceiling or in the back of the room, and a fixed or motorized roll-down fabric screen material. • Provides very poor contrast when there is any ambient light from either exterior windows or interior lighting. The front projection screen cannot discriminate between ambient light and light from the projector, so all light is reflected off the screen. The best contrast attainable (image black color) is when the projector is turned off and any ambient light is on the screen. Front projection is generally used in environments where light can be highly controlled (such as a movie theater). • The projector that is mounted from the ceiling or on the back wall will typically have a noisy fan and may be disruptive.
• Depending on screen mounting height and projector location, someone could walk across the stage and shadow the image on the screen. Front projection is not conducive for use as a backdrop.
• Depending on projector brightness, lens configuration and resolution, the projector/screen combination is generally lower cost than direct view LED. • Direct View LED
• Uses a grid of LED panels mounted from the floor, attached to the front wall or suspended from structure.
• Viewing distances determine the optimum pixel pitch (distance between LED image pixels). For this application, a 2.5mm (or smaller) pixel pitch is recommended. • Provides rich colors and high light output, even in high ambient lighting conditions. • Provides excellent image contrast.
• Uses more power and generates more heat than front projection. • Is generally more expensive than front projection, as much as 2-3 times the cost.
Given the different room design options, all with extensive glass (and ambient light), direct view LED is the preferred display technology.
The following list of approximate sell pricing can be used as a budget for equipment only, not including infrastructure, installation labor, materials, tax, etc.

• 7’x12’ Projection – Approximately $30k (Options 1,2,3, Alternate) • 9’x16’ Projection – Approximately $35k (Option 4)
• 7’x12’ LED – Approximately $60k (Options 1,2,3, Alternate) • ‘9x16’ LED – Approximately $100k (Option 4)
Aspect ratio
There are many different screen formats used depending on what type of content is going to be displayed most often. For the majority of uses, a standard 16:9 High Definition aspect ratio is the most common for the majority of content that will be displayed. It is the standard aspect ratio for virtually all TVs that are produced today. Another format is 16:10 which conforms more closely to an earlier standard computer video graphics card and display resolution, but is not as common as HD. Also, there are various types of cinema formats, the most common of which is 2.35:1 but these screen aspect ratios are rarely used outside of movie theaters or other specialized video format functions. For the purpose of this comparison, a 16:9 aspect ratio will be used.
Screen Size
Optimum screen size is a function of many factors, most notable of which are the viewing distances and the nature of the content to be displayed. For example, viewing spreadsheets or small text PowerPoint presentations generally require larger screen size and higher resolution than full motion video.
For the purpose of this study, the standard viewing design criteria that is used is to have the screen image height be no less than 1/6 the distance to the furthest viewing seat. The following screen sizes for each room option will be used:
Furthest Optimal Screen
Option Viewer Size (rounded)
#1 40 7x12
#2 40 7x12
#3 41 7x12
#4 56 9x16
Alternate 41 7x12
Mounting Height
The mounting height of a screen is dependent on the information displayed and how much of the screen needs to be viewable to the worst seats. A screen mounted higher on the wall will provide better viewing for the seats in the rear of the room that has flat floor seating.
The main reason to mount a screen lower on the wall is if it is to be used as a scenic backdrop for activities on the stage. However, because of the flat floor seating and multiple uses for this room, a higher mounted screen will be the basis of the design for this evaluation.
Attachment 1
City of Coronado Page 34
Attachment 3
Winn Room | salasobrien.com 6
When looking at the screen from the back row of each room option, a significant portion of the lower part of the screen might be obstructed for viewers unless the screen is raised. As such, our recommendation is to mount the screen sufficiently high to provide adequate viewing for all seats.
Evaluation
The following descriptions assume the screen sizes per the chart above.
Option #1: to provide the optimum screen size for the viewing distance, this option would require the bottom of the screen to be mounted 3’ above the floor due to the ceiling height. This would result in very poor visibility to most of the screen image. Approximately 65% of the screen image will be blocked from viewing from the rear row. The alternative would be to put in a smaller screen which would reduce the image size and result in poor viewing of the screen image from the back of the room.
Option #2: to provide the optimum screen size for the viewing distance, this option would require the bottom of the screen to be mounted 6’ above the floor. This would result in good image visibility to most of the screen image from all seats and allow a presenter to walk across the front of the room without obstructing the screen.

Option #3: to provide the optimum screen size for the viewing distance, this option would require the bottom of the screen to be mounted 6’ above the floor. This would result in good image visibility to the majority of the screen image from all seats and allow a presenter to walk across the front of the room without obstructing the screen.
Option #4: to provide the optimum screen size for the viewing distance, this option would require the bottom of the screen to be mounted 6’ above the floor. This would result in good image visibility to the majority of the screen image from all seats and allow a presenter to walk across the front of the room without obstructing the screen. The further viewing distance of this room would require a 9’x16’ screen for good viewing from the furthest seat because of the longer viewing distance.
Attachment 1
City of Coronado Page 36
Attachment 3
Winn Room | salasobrien.com 8
Option Alternate: to provide the optimum screen size for the viewing distance, this option would require the bottom of the screen to be mounted 6’ above the floor. This would result in good image visibility to the majority of the screen image from all seats and allow a presenter to walk across the front of the room without obstructing the screen.
An adequate viewing experience can be achieved when using Direct View LED (instead of projection) on any of the options #2-#4. Due to the low ceiling height and extremely poor viewing of Option #1, this room design option is not recommended.
The main drawback of Option Alternate is the presence of the glass wall header in the middle of the room which negatively impacts the room's functionality. Removing this element would significantly improve the room's suitability for various purposes but would eliminate the ability to split the one large room into two smaller rooms.
SUBJECTIVE EVALUATION OF THE WINN ROOM OPTIONS
A subjective rating for each of the rooms in their current designs, considering their suitability for meetings or small musical performances on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the ideal is:
• Option #4 – Larger Expansion: 4
• Option #3 – Internal Expansion: 3
• Option #2 – Elevate Ceiling: 3
• Option #1 – Interior Upgrades: 2
• Alternate Option – Grand Room AV Upgrades: 1

EVALUATION OF CINEMA USES FOR THE WINN ROOM
The following is an evaluation of the attributes of a Cinema Movie Theater when compared to the various Winn Room design options for the uses of cinema presentations:
Attribute Cinema Winn Room Options
Screen Fills the entire front width of the
room
Covers half of the front width of the
room
Sightlines Stadium seating for optimal viewing Flat floor with obstructed viewing Ambient
Light
No ambient light Ambient light from windows
Acoustics Completely absorptive room Minimal sound absorption The Winn Room is more suitable for live presentations to a group and interactive functions and gatherings compared to cinema. The primary issue is the screen size, as the architecture and budget constraints limit its size.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
In addition to the acoustics of the space and screen size and image type, there are additional considerations that will need to be addressed once a design option is selected. A partial list of these items include:
Stage lighting positions for front and back light
Lighting control of both stage and house lighting
Sound control (mixing console) equipment and operator location and accommodation Stage storage, if a portable stage is used
ADA access to the stage
Structural and architectural accommodation for the video screen and speaker systems Space, infrastructure, power, and cooling requirements for AV equipment All of these items will need to be addressed during the design phase of the project. -END OF REPORTAttachment 1

John Moutes spoke in support of Option 4, mentioning the backing of the Coronado Philharmonia Orchestra, the broad impact of the issue on the entire City, and the overall improvement to the community. He also noted conflicts with the high school's control over the Black Box Theater.
Councilmember Downey inquired whether the Philharmonia could accommodate all of their performances in the Winn Room and asked about the size of the orchestra. Mr.

Jeanne Seager provided comments regarding the John D. Spreckels Center being ranked poorly for audio/visual capabilities by the Audio/Visual consultant.
Chair Tanaka reopened the meeting for general public comment.
Meridee Brook spoke in support of Option 4, emphasizing that 200 seats would be the ideal number for performances. She highlighted the need for Option 4 and noted that the black box theater with 500 seats is not always necessary, making Option 4 a balanced choice for more versatile creative use.
