Hello Ms. Green,
Please forward my comment to the council for today's meeting.
Greetings Mayor and Council.
I'm writing out of concern for consistency and accuracy in the reporting made available for today's (1/24/23) study session.
In the budget attachment, under the Fairview Park section, it says: "The Department also partners with non- profit organizations for the operation of a miniature railroad and a flying field for model gliders." This makes sense. Glider flyers, organized as the Harbor Soaring Society, have been stewards of Fairview Park since before it was a park. Glider flying was an approved use in the inauguration of the park, and reconfirmed as an appropriate passive use of the park under the voter-approved Measure AA. n Director Minters arab file f-ying a for harme train, yes, buo i ers, hoof glay is is This seems to be an intended omission.
The voters of Costa Mesa have been clear in their intent. We deserve the same from you. And, the City Council has approved glider flying in the park for the moment, while other plans are under review. So, why all the contradictions?
I appreciate your thoughtful review, and clear response, to my inquiry. The documents I have referenced are attached to this email.
Thank you,
Jim

File #: 23-1003 Meeting Date: 1/24/2023
guidelines to ensure all City events are carried out in a safe and cohesive manner for the best interest of the community.
In March of 2020, the difficult decision was made to lay off a majority of the part-time staff in the Parks and Community Services Department. While this decision helped ease the City budget issues during those unprecedented times, it also created challenges that continue to plague the Department, especially when combined with other legislative, economic and logistical factors.
The primary legislative factor was the State mandated minimum wage increase which was concurrent with the pandemic. The previous salary structure for all part-time classifications had to be redone.
Those changes were brought before City Council and approved in 2021. Unfortunately, even with the part-time salary increases, the market for entry level positions had already quickly risen above the approved salary schedule. Private sector companies were offering starting wages $3.00 to $4.00 above the City's starting rates.
Over the last two years, Department Supervisors have worked with our Human Resources staff to improve recruiting to our entry level positions. This has included recruitment events held at our Community Centers that were specific to our part-time classifications. Unfortunately, these hiring events produced very little return.
Due to the previously mentioned factors, the Department experiences a high turnover rate, and continues to be significantly understaffed. While staff strive to offer as many programs and services as possible, many continue to operate in a limited capacity. Ideally, a minimum of 150 part-time positions are required to operate and manage the classes, facilities, events, and programs at a level comparable to pre-pandemic offerings.
Staff are currently evaluating opportunities to increase employee retention, including the possibility of converting select part-time positions into full-time positions, specifically for the Recreation Specialist classification that was previously full-time. These Recreation Specialists are critical to the Department's youth and respective programs.
