ITEM TITLE: UPDATE ON 10TH AND IRIS POCKET PARK. (0920-90) ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT:
City Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In 2016 the City of Imperial Beach
received a grant from 4Walls
International (4Walls) to improve a
vacant right-of-way at 10th and Iris.
Both 4Walls and the Imperial Beach
Arts Bureau performed well-attended
outreach in the neighborhood,
presenting their plans to the Parks and
Rec Committee and City Council. This
outreach led to the installation of
landscaping, walkways, benches, and
artistic elements in the area.
Currently, the area requires further
enhancement, and the City Council
has directed staff to explore additional
improvements, including butterfly
garden elements. Following a meeting
with two members of Council,
neighboring residents, and City staff,
a concept plan for general enhancements has been drafted for consideration by the City Council (Attachment 1 – PROPOSED 10th Street Park).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive the report on the 10th & Iris Pocket Park and authorize pertinent enhancements.
OPTIONS:
Receive report and authorize pertinent enhancements; or Receive report and provide alternative direction to staff; or Request additional information.

well-attended outreach in the neighborhood, presenting their plans to the Parks and Rec Committee and City Council. This outreach led to the installation of landscaping, walkways, benches, and artistic elements in the area. (Attachment 1 – 2016 Outreach 10th-Iris Project).
Currently, the area requires further enhancement, and the City Council has directed staff to explore additional improvements, including butterfly garden elements. Following a meeting with two members of Council, neighboring residents, and City staff, a concept of general enhancements has been drafted for consideration by the City Council (Attachment 2 – PROPOSED 10th-Iris Concept).
It is intended that the primary elements of the initial project would remain to be compatible with the original outreach and implementation (drought tolerant landscaping, art, walkways, benches, etc.), though modifications to landscaping and site layout would be provided. The concept includes relocating the artistic elements so that public safety staff can have clear views into the park at all hours, installation of drought-tolerant landscaping with pollinator-rich planting to attract and nurture butterflies, and optimization of subsurface irrigation. City staff has also contacted 4Walls so that they can participate in some capacity.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
Not a project as defined by CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City’s currently approved budget does not include funding for this purpose. It is anticipated that the costs associated with implementing enhancements to 10th & Iris would be less than $45,000.

ITEM TITLE: SUMMER SAFETY MEASURES IN IMPERIAL BEACH. (0220-05 & 0260-05) ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT:
City Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Summer officially begins on June 20 and the City would like to promote a safe summer in Imperial Beach by providing safety tips, reminders about rules and regulations, and prevention measures within Imperial Beach.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council receive the report.
OPTIONS:
Receive report.
Provide direction to the City Manager.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
The summer season will begin on June 20 and the warm weather and sunshine offers ideal conditions for outdoor activities. This staff report is intended to provide safety tips, reminders about rules and regulations, and prevention measures that would be implemented within the City of Imperial Beach.
SAFETY TIPS
The following safety tips are intended to keep residents, businesses, and visitors safe and informed:
Prevent prolonged exposure to the sun. Take rest breaks in the shade or patron a local business.
Use and re-apply sunscreen. Sunscreen should be reapplied every two hours when outside or exposed to the sun.
Drink water regularly, even if you are not thirsty. High temperatures and intense sunlight can cause your body to heat up quickly, leading to discomfort and potential heat-related illnesses like heat exhaustion or heatstroke. Drinking water helps regulate your body temperature and prevents overheating.
Children should be supervised by a designated adult in public places, including the beach, pier, or parks.
Take safety advisories seriously. Advisories are placed for your protection and adhering to precautions helps maintain a safe community.
P a g e | 2
Keep your valuables and possessions safe. If you must bring valuables with you, stow them out of sight as best possible.
Never leave pets, children, or individuals unable to care for themselves unattended in a vehicle. Cars can reach lethal temperatures within minutes, posing a severe risk to anyone inside. Therefore, it is imperative to ensure that no child, animal, or person who cannot exit on their own is ever left alone in a vehicle.
Complete no-trespass authorizations when necessary. These forms are utilized by law enforcement in situations where unauthorized individuals are found on a property without owner consent or lawful purpose.
See something, say something. Informed and alert communities play a critical role in keeping the community safe. Below is a list of non-emergency phone numbers for various departments. For emergencies call 9-1-1.
o Sheriff non-emergency number: (619) 498-2400
o Marine Safety Department: (619) 423-8328
o Fire Department: (619) 619-423-8223
