TO: Mayor Clauzel and Members of the City Council
FROM: Ken Irwin, City Manager
BY: Mike Willett, Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: December 5, 2023
ITEM NO: 6.4
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution No. 2023-56 and Approve Addendum No. 3 to the Street Sweeping Services Agreement with Sweeping Corp of America (SCA), CA, LLC, for a Five-Year Extension for Continued City-Wide Street Sweeping Services, Beginning July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2028, and Authorizing the Finance Department to Adjust the Fiscal Year 2023- 24 Budget

RECOMMENDATION
Motion to Adopt Resolution No. 2023-56 and Approve Addendum No. 3 to the Street Sweeping Contract Services Agreement with Sweeping Corp of America for a five-year extension for continued City-wide street sweeping services, beginning July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2028, and authorizing the Finance Department to adjust the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Budget.

BACKGROUND
The City contracts commercial and residential street sweeping services to Sweeping Corp of America from Milpitas, CA. Residential routes are swept weekly and downtown streets are swept daily. Because the existing agreement was set to expire on June 30, 2023, the City negotiated Addendum No. 2 to the street sweeping services agreement, and on June 6, 2023, the City Council authorized staff to execute a five-year contract extension. Given the current economic climate, with inflation and the increased cost of doing business, City staff recommended, and Council approved, a 10% contract renewal increase.

After City Council approval, City staff sent the agreement to the Contractor for signature. Upon receipt, the Contractor noted a separate 5.3% Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase that was requested during negotiations and supported by City staff, but not included in the City Council approved contract extension. The CPI increase was not included in the June 6, 2023, staff report,

6.4 Packet Pg. 15
or contract documents the City Council considered for approval. This item is an attempt to remedy the error from June 6, 2023, and bring to the City Council for consideration the version of the agreement negotiated in good faith with the Contractor and supported by City staff.

ANALYSIS
For the increase, City staff has requested the Contractor provide Global Positioning System (GPS) Tracking in their sweepers. The purpose of GPS in the sweepers is so that City staff can review completed routes as well as confirm certain standards are met, such as: maximum allowable speeds and “water on” criteria. The Contractor has agreed to this additional condition.

Sweeping Corp of America has reviewed Attachment B, Contract Addendum No. 3, and committed to extending the existing contract for five more years, according to the conditions below, and providing the City with the same level of weekly street service.

The terms included in Addendum No.3 are as follows:

1. Initial Increase: Year-1 includes a 5.3% CPI increase and a 10% contract renewal increase. The proposed contract renewal increase offsets the CONTRACTOR burden of costs of service having no CPI increases in years 3-5 of the prior contract in addition to the most recent inflationary impacts on business.

2. The maximum fees to be charged by the CONTRACTOR set forth in years 1 through 5 for Addendum No. 3 are listed below. Year-1, the CONTRACTOR shall charge no greater than the maximum rate as provided in item 3. In years 2 through 5, the CITY will adjust the maximum fee under this addendum to reflect annual changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the SF-Bay Area statistical area. Such adjustments shall not exceed five percent (5%) per year. The adjustment shall become effective on the anniversary of the Effective Date and be based on the previous twelve-month index analysis. Years 2-5 of the proposed fees below include a 5% maximum CPI increase. Should actual CPI in year 2-5 be lower than 5%, the lower CPI increase will be applied.

3. Year-1, increase the current service cost by 5.3% CPI increase and 10% contract renewal increase, effective July 1, 2023, from $181,380.48 per year ($15,115.04 per month) to $210,093.01 per year ($17,507.75 per month).

4. Year-2, increase the service cost by a maximum 5% CPI, effective July 1, 2024, from $210,093.01 per year ($17,507.75 per month) to $220,597.66 per year ($18,383.14 per month).

5. Year-3, increase the service cost by a maximum 5% CPI, effective July 1, 2025, from $220,597.66 per year ($18,383.14 per month) to $231,627.54 per year ($19,302.30 per month).

6. Year-4, increase the service cost by a maximum 5% CPI, effective July 1, 2026, from $231,627.54 per year ($19,302.30 per month) to $243,208.92 per year ($20,267.41 per month).

7. Year-5, increase the service cost by a maximum 5% CPI, effective July 1, 2027, from $243,208.92 per year ($20,267.41 per month) to $255,369.37 per year

6.4 Packet Pg. 16
($21,280.78 per month).

8. Global Positioning System (GPS) Tracking - Within one year from the effective date of this agreement, the CONTRACTOR shall provide Global Positioning System Tracking in all street sweepers used to perform Patterson’s street sweeping services. A Global Positioning Systems that will enable the CITY of Patterson to view where the street sweepers are at all times via the Internet. The cost of the entire GPS System will be the sole responsibility of the CONTRACTOR and the system must be capable of the following:
a. The system shall be Internet based and the CONTRACTOR shall provide the CITY two (2) accounts to have full access to the site. b. The system shall be capable of gathering and reporting the following real time data; speed, direction, location on a map, address, distance traveled, brooms up or down, water on or off.
c. The sweepers’ path of travel shall be superimposed on a map. d. Generate daily reports of sweep activity including the items listed above. e. Maintaining the data for a period of 1-year, after which data will be provided to the CITY of Patterson to archive indefinitely.

9. Pro Rata Curb Mile Cost of Service - The purpose of defining the pro rata curb mile cost of service is so that New CITY Street can be added to the street sweeping schedule and the cost of service be adjusted proportionally. a. The Pro Rata Curb Mile Cost of Service is $16.71 per curb mile. b. See Exhibit-B for the way in which the CITY determined the Pro Rata Curb Mile Cost of Service for Year-1 of the agreement.
c. The Pro Rata Curb Mile Cost of Service shall be updated annually according to the effective year cost of service of the agreement and the average monthly curb mile total provided in Exhibit-B.

10. New CITY Streets - New streets may be added by the Director of Public Works or their designee during the term of this agreement. Such streets shall be added to the street sweeping schedule upon receipt of written notice by the CITY. The cost of service will be adjusted by the CITY according to the total curb miles added and multiplied by the Pro Rata Curb Mile Cost of Service according to the effective year cost of service.

FROM: Ken Irwin, City Manager
BY: Marie Guillory Jones, Director of Human Resources
MEETING DATE: December 5, 2023
ITEM NO: 6.5
SUBJECT: Approve the Job Descriptions for Assistant City Manager, Deputy Director of Engineering, and Human Resources Technician.

RECOMMENDATION
Motion to Approve the Job descriptions for Assistant City Manager, Deputy Director of Engineering, and Human Resources Technician.

BACKGROUND
The City of Patterson has not had an Assistant City Manager in over 13 years. During this time, the City continued to thrive as an employer and a City, and all executive level administrative duties of the Office of the City Manager have been the responsibility of the City Manager. The City has continued to grow with its residential and business developments, commercial growth, infrastructure projects, and partnerships throughout the community. As a result, the duties and responsibilities of the Office of the City Manager have grown as well. It is now imperative that an Assistant City Manager position is created for the commensurate growth and operations of the City.

The engineering division was established ten and a half years ago. At that time, engineering duties were separated from the Public Works department and the engineering division consisted of only two staff members, the Director and a Capital Projects Manager, with the assistance of external engineering firms. Over the past decade the engineering division has grown responsibly to a staff count of five which now includes an Associate Civil Engineer, Assistant Engineer, and an Administrative Assistant. Over the past several years, the City has continued to have an increase in construction development and capital projects, requiring an elevated level of support of a Deputy Director of Engineering.

6.5 Packet Pg. 24
A new Human Resources Technician position was previously requested and approved by the City Council as a part of the fiscal year 2023-24 budget development and approval process, with the adoption of Resolution 2023-38, approved by Council on June 27, 2023. The job description has been completed and is being submitted for approval.

ANALYSIS
Currently the City of Patterson does not have an Assistant City Manager nor a Deputy Director of Engineering. With the City of Patterson’s continued growth in staffing, residents, projected residential and business development, and construction and infrastructure projects, these positions will allow the City to continue to operate efficiently and provide quality service levels to its citizens.

The Human Resources Technician is a newly approved position for our City and requires the approval of a job description by our governing body.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. Staff is requesting the approval of new job descriptions only.

The projected fiscal impact for filling the Assistant City Manager and the Deputy Director of Engineering positions will be brought before Council for approval at a later date. The Human Resources Technician was previously approved by Council and appropriated as a part of the initial budget for this current 2023-24 fiscal year.

RECOMMENDATION
(Motion to Continue the Public Hearing from November 7, 2023 Regular Council Meeting) Once again, Staff is requesting that this item be continued to a future meeting. For staff to review recent changes to the documents, we would like to continue this item to January 16, 2024.

Motion to Approve Resolution No. 2023-50, approving the Regional Transportation Impact Fee Report and adopting updated development impact fees related to transportation, effective December 5, 2023.

Section 3.64) related to the approval of transportation development impact fees, motion to approve Resolution No. 2023-50 approving the Regional Transportation Impact Fee Report and adopting updated development impact fees related to transportation, effective December 5, 2023.

BACKGROUND
The City of Patterson has adopted development impact fees in accordance with relevant provisions of Government Code §66000 et seq, to address the need for municipal facilities attributed to new development. Under State law, an impact fee must be reasonably related to the

7.1 Packet Pg. 38
cost of the service provided by the local agency. These fees are only charged to and collected from new development within the city limits at the time of building permit issuance.

ANALYSIS
The City’s traffic engineer, Advanced Mobility Group have completed work on a Regional Transportation Impact Fee (TIF). The TIF considers roadway improvements identified in the 2010 General Plan and the Transportation Infrastructure Master Plan that are necessary to accommodate future expansion of the city. The TIF estimated funds necessary to accommodate and mitigate the impacts of future development. It should be noted that the TIF’s focus is on major intersections and roadways that serve a more regional need. Intersections and roadways that primarily serve local needs would be paid for directly by a developer or through other financial measures. As a development impact fee, the TIF would only pay for the fair share impact of future development. Existing deficiencies would be required to be paid for through other methods.

Proposed Maximum Allowable Transportation Impact Fee
Residential Units Total TIF per Unit
Single Family $7,532
Medium Density $4,261
High Density $3,633
Non-Residential Total TIF per 1,000 square feet
Retail $10,421
Non-Residential Mixed Use $8,460
Office $7,861
Limited Industrial $5,502
General Industrial/Warehouse $3,581

FISCAL IMPACT
Costs associated with the impact fee study were budgeted in Transportation funds. The revenues generated by the updated fees shall be placed in impact fee funds. All impact fees are collected at the time a building permit is issued; therefore, the fiscal impact is unknown until development takes place. The approved fees would increase annually, effective January 1st of every year, by the San Francisco Bay Area’s CCI (Construction Cost Index).

INTRODUCTION
The Regional Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) provides the City of Patterson (City) with the necessary technical documentation to support the adoption of a new Citywide Transportation Impact Fee Program (TIF Program). Impact fees are one-time charges on new development that the City can collect to cover the cost of impact on capital facilities and infrastructure that are required to serve new growth.1 Typically such fees are collected upon issuance of a building permit.

The City adopted a 2010 General Plan update in July 2010. The General Plan identifies roadway and infrastructure mitigation measures to accommodate the projected traffic impact due to the buildout of future land use in the City. In anticipation of funding required to build those future infrastructure improvements, the City completed the Patterson Transportation Infrastructure Master Plan (TIMP) project in 2020. The goal of the TIMP is an attempt to identify Patterson’s existing and future roadway infrastructure problem areas and potential solutions that may occur through a combination of public and private infrastructure investments.

The main purpose of this TIF is to estimate funds needed to implement key transportation improvements necessary to accommodate and mitigate the impacts of future development in the City. To support the TIF program, the City prepare this Nexus Study that will provide a legal basis for requiring development impact fees consistent with Mitigation Fee Act (AB 1600/ Government Code Section 66000 et seq.).

The Fee Program described in this TIF Study is based on growth projections and transportation infrastructure requirements identified in the General Plan, TIMP and supporting documents (e.g., GP Environmental Impact Report). This TIF Study quantifies the potential allocation of the proposed transportation improvements to new growth in the City and calculates the maximum allowable transportation impact fee schedule by land use category. The City may decide to adopt fees below the maximum supportable level based on economic or policy considerations. Such fee reductions should be considered in conjunction with the availability of other sources of capital improvement funding.

LEGAL CONTEXT
This TIF Study is designed to provide the necessary technical analysis to support a schedule of transportation impact fees to be established by an Impact Fee Act Fee Ordinance and Resolution. The Mitigation Fee Act allows the City to adopt, by resolution, the Transportation Impact Fee consistent with the supporting technical analysis and findings provided in this report. Using the Resolution approach to setting the fee allows periodic adjustments of the fee amount that may be necessary over time, without having to amend the ordinance.

Traffic impact fees could be collected and used to cover the cost of constructing capital and infrastructure improvements to serve new development and growth in the City. Therefore, these impact fees must be based on a reasonable connection or nexus between new growth and development and the need for such improvement. As such traffic impact fees cannot be used to cover the operation and maintenance costs of these or any other facilities and infrastructure. Lastly, traffic impact fees cannot be collected or used to cover the cost of existing needs/ deficiencies in the City transportation capital improvement network.

In establishing, increasing, or imposing a fee as a condition for the approval of a development project, Government Code 66001(a) and (b) state that the local agency must:
1 Assumed to include any development activity (as defined in the study) that generates new traffic impacts on the City’s transportation infrastructure when completed

2. Identify how the fee is to be used;

3. Determine how a reasonable relationship exists between the fee use and type of development project for which the fee is being used;

4. Determine how the need for the public facility relates to the type of development project for which the fee is imposed; and

5. Show the relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public facility.

These statutory requirements have been followed in establishing this TIF.

Once the TIF is adopted, this TIF Study and the accompanying technical information should be maintained and reviewed periodically to ensure Impact Fee accuracy and to ensure the adequate programming of funding sources. As necessary, any changes to costs due to development changes over time, then the TIF will need to be updated.

MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE FEE SCHEDULE
Table 1 shows the City’s maximum traffic impact fee schedule by land use consistent with nexus requirements. These traffic impact fees apply to new residential and nonresidential development and cover the transportation improvement costs required to support new development after existing deficiencies have been taken into account. The fee estimates also include a 2 percent fee program administration fee, consistent with Mitigation Fee Act program administrative costs in many other California jurisdictions.2 The fees apply to all new development, except those exempted by the Ordinance of other means, such as approved projects under the terms of a Development Agreement.3 The adoption of the recommended fee schedule would result in fee revenues of about $200.2 million in today’s dollar terms assuming full build-out of the General Plan consistent with current land use designations. An additional $182.7 million in revenues will be required from other funding sources to cover the full cost of the transportation facilities4 included in the fee calculations. That is, the TIF is estimated to generate approximately 52 percent of the revenue needed to cover the future transportation improvements and facilities costs identified to mitigate growth impacts associated with build-out of the General Plan.

Table 1: Maximum Allowable Transportation Impact Fee
2 The 2 percent administration cost is estimated to cover expenses related development of impact fee study and subsequent updates as well as the required reporting, auditing, collection and other annual administrative costs involved in overseeing the program. It is consistent with TIF programs throughout California.

The results of this analysis are based on a variety of conditions and assumptions regarding infrastructure costs, land use growth projections, and transportation demand. These assumptions are discussed later but some of the key issues are summarized below:
• Future Development and Trips. The fee calculations were based on residential and nonresidential development projections, and associated trip generation. Land use and cost information are based on the approved 2010 General Plan, recently approved projects and TIMP information. In addition, the StanCOG Travel Demand model was utilized to conduct travel demand analysis. • Capital Improvement Program. The list of transportation improvements included in the Fee Program focus on future projects identified in the approved TIMP report. • Cost Estimates. AMG has developed or updated cost estimates based on latest available Caltrans unit cost for all TIMP transportation improvement projects identified. The cost estimates were based on assumptions about the planned right-of-way, number of lanes, cross-sections and intersection control for each improvements. Assumptions were based on similar existing corridors within the City of Patterson, input from the County, consistent with the City’s roadway design standards and have been reviewed and confirmed by City staff. • Cost Allocation. Transportation analysis conducted by AMG (including Select Link Analysis) was used to determine the portion of transportation improvements costs to be included in the fee program. Only transportation improvement costs specifically required to support new development are included in the transportation impact fee calculation.

This chapter documents the land use and growth assumptions and forecasts used in this study. These assumptions determine the amount of future traffic generation and attraction in the City of Patterson which are key factors in determining how to allocate new transportation improvement costs between existing and various new development land uses in the future.

LAND USE ASSUMPTIONS AND FORECAST
The existing and future City of Patterson land use estimates used in the TIF are based on several sources including the 2010 General Plan (approved in July 2010), three major approved project land uses, and more recent land use updates provided by the City5. Based on discussions with City staff6, three major approved projects included are:
• West Patterson Business Park Master Plan was approved in 2003 – Originally approved for approximately 8.5 million sf light industrial, freeway commercial, R&D and residential.

Approximately 5 million sf available.
• Villages of Patterson was approved in 2007 – 3,100 dwelling units and 1.1 million sf of light industrial, office, retail and public use. Only elementary school on Hartley Avenue has been completed.
• West Patterson Business Park Expansion was approved in 2012 –11 million sf light industrial, 839 ksf business park & 198 ksf business park. 1.5M sf distribution center has been developed.

Trips to be generated by the three approved and yet to be developed projects would be considered in future traffic forecasts. However, since future potential impacts and mitigation measures have been considered and approved by Council in Development Agreements (DA), these future trips would not be considered a part of the TIF developed in this study.

The future buildout of the remaining General Plan land use includes Zacharias/Baldwin Master Plan and Non-Committed land use in the City. The TIF would be based on these two major land uses which will generate future traffic and impacts on City transportation infrastructure.

The buildout potential of Zacharias/Baldwin Master Plan consists of:
• 5,086 dwelling units, and
• 7,765,000 square feet of non-residential uses.

The buildout potential of Non-Committed land use in the City is estimated to include:
• 15,201 dwelling units, and
• 9,988 square feet of non-residential uses.

The City of Patterson land use growth projections are used in the travel demand model based on Stanislaus Council of Government (StanCOG) model to estimate future regional travel demand based on various assumptions as it relates to roadway network and trip rates by land use category in the City and the rest of Stanislaus County. The StanCOG model used is the current 2022 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) model which has 2019 as the base year and 2046 future year.

The current and future year land use assumptions used the forecasting model are shown in Table 2. 5 Email from City staff, December 7, 2021

• Single-Family Residential: This refers to detached single-family homes. Traffic impact fees for new single-family residential development are applied on a per unit basis. • Multifamily Residential (Low-Rise): This category covers apartments, townhomes, condos, duplexes and other multifamily housing and that have one or two levels. Traffic impact fees for new construction of this type of residential development are applied on a per unit basis. • Multifamily Residential (Mid-Rise): This category covers apartments, townhomes, condos, duplexes and other multifamily housing and that have three or more levels. Traffic impact fees for new construction of this type of residential development are applied on a per unit basis. • Retail: Retail development can include shopping centers, discount stores, nurseries, factory outlets, car sale lots, convenient stores, and specialty stores. Traffic impact fees for new construction of this type of development are applied on a square footage basis. • Mixed-Use: This assumed a mix of general offices, including professional and medical office and retail development that could include shopping centers and convenient stores. Traffic impact fees for new construction of this type of development are applied on a square footage basis. • Office: This category covers general offices, including professional and medical office development, government offices, and post offices. Traffic impact fees for this type of development are applied on a square footage basis.
• Limited Industrial: It is typically a free-standing facility devoted to a single use. The facility has an emphasis on activities other than manufacturing and typically has minimal office space. Typical light industrial activities include printing, material testing, and assembly of data processing 2019 Approved

TRAVEL DEMAND ASSUMPTIONS AND FORECASTS
The model was used to estimate future regional travel demand based on various assumptions as it relates to roadway network and trip rates by land use category in the City and the rest of Stanislaus County. The trip generation used in the 2022 RTP Model was developed using total population, households, and employment projections. The land use categories and trip generation for the City of Patterson as shown in Table 2 are based on Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation7 and further refined through model trip lengths and citywide data.

Using some of the model trip length assumptions, the resulting trip demand factor are summarized in Table

3. Table 3: Trip Generation Rate Assumptions
Table 4 combines the growth estimates summarized in Table 2 and the travel demand assumptions presented in Table 3 to estimate the total growth in trips through build-out of the General Plan which included three major approved projects mentioned earlier. As shown, this approach results in an estimated growth of 24,491 PM peak hour trips per day, which represents approximately a doubling increase over existing levels.

This chapter describes the major roadway improvement projects proposed for the City of Patterson as well as their cost estimates. The following chapter discusses the nexus-based cost allocations.

PROJECT SELECTION
The list of infrastructure improvement projects used in the development of traffic impact fees are derived from the Patterson Transportation Infrastructure Master Plan (TIMP) project which was completed in 2020. 8 Estimated costs for the list of infrastructure improvement projects to accommodate new growth were reviewed by City staff at that time including recent review and updates. These capital improvements projects included in the fee program were developed based on conceptual plans and have been developed in sufficient detail to generate good cost estimates.

The list of transportation projects identified in TIMP is the primary basis and did not include the following:
• The TIF program does not include any projects that are outside of the sphere of influence of the City of Patterson.
• The TIF program does not include any projects where secured and dedicated funding source have already been established to cover the full cost such as those in the Development Agreements.

PROJECT LIST
As part of the Patterson TIMP Study, the City prepared a preliminary conceptual improvement list, as shown in Table 5. The improvements included in the list cover the intersections/segments where significant impact(s) were identified. Particularly, it is assumed that significant cost could be expected at railroad crossings.

None of the projects included in the TIF addresses existing deficiencies. Rather, they are a response to new development and limited to intersections currently operating at an acceptable level of service (LOS) within City’s standards (LOS D) but are expected to deteriorate to below City’ LOS standards with proposed new developments.

FACILITY COST ESTIMATES
The cost estimates shown in Table 5 above are based on assumptions about the planned right- of-way, roadway cross-sections for each corridor. Assumptions were based on similar existing corridors within the City of Patterson and boundary roadways with the County and have been reviewed and confirmed by City staff. Detailed cost estimate sheets for each project are attached to this report as Appendix A. 8 City of Patterson Transportation Infrastructure Master Plan, Final Report, March 6, 2020

This chapter presents calculations for the maximum allowable TIF based on the land use projections and estimated transportation improvements cost and its nexus.

OVERVIEW OF FINDINGS
As indicated in the introduction, a “nexus” between new development in City of Patterson and its impact on the transportation improvements and their associated costs must be made before assigning a certain transportation improvement costs into a transportation impact fee calculation. Several necessary steps were taken to determine the appropriate costs to include in the new TIF calculation:
• Estimate Total Costs of Transportation Improvements. The identification of the required transportation improvement projects and their associated costs updates are based on the TIMP and key projects.
• Remove existing deficiencies. This includes evaluation of whether there is an existing deficiency at any of the project locations and the level of that deficiency. • Estimate Proportionate Allocation to New Development. Determine the proportion of the transportation improvement project cost that could be assigned to new development in Patterson after removing any existing deficiencies.
• Deduct Known Funding from Total Cost. Any dedicated funding should be deducted from the transportation fee calculation.

Purpose
The fee will ensure adequate levels of transportation service as contemplated in the General Plan are maintained in Patterson.

Use of Fee
Revenue generated by the fee will be used to fund City transportation improvements, including roadway, intersection, multi-modal and traffic signal improvements. The list of eligible transportation projects and costs are summarized in Table 5 and further detailed in the Appendix A.

Established Relationship
As discussed previously, new development in the City of Patterson will increase traffic demands on the City’s transportation network. Estimated transportation fee revenue will be used to fund transportation improvements required to maintain acceptable levels of service. New development will benefit from the increased transportation capacity.

Need
Future new development projects will add traffic and create an incremental need for transportation capacity and improvements. The transportation improvements detailed in this study are considered necessary to meet the City's future transportation needs.

Proportionality
The fee levels are estimated using fair share cost allocations for new Citywide development based on the StanCOG 2022 RTP transportation model adapted for this study.

Travel Demand Model Assumptions and Methodology
The StanCOG countywide travel demand model with refined traffic analysis zones (TAZ) and land use estimates for the City of Patterson was developed for the study. The refinement of the travel demand model was taken to allocate TIF program costs equitably. The StanCOG model is a mathematical representation of travel demand based on the buildout of all of the cities within Stanislaus County, including Patterson. The model uses socioeconomic data, such as number of jobs and households, for different geographic areas (transportation analysis zones) to predict the expected travel between places in the future.

AMG used an adopted model which was validated for the current socioeconomic data to predict current traffic volume, which is matched with the existing counts to calibrate the model. The calibrated model was used to forecast future travel conditions based on the expected changes in the socioeconomic conditions in the future. There are 80 transportation analysis zones (TAZ) within the StanCOG model to represent the City. The 2046 socioeconomic data are generated by StanCOG based on input from all cities in the County. In order to determine appropriate nexus, AMG further refined the model to derive both average citywide and link-specific characteristics of vehicle travel demand including the following:
• Internal (trips that start and end in Patterson)
• Internal/External (trips that have one end either beginning or ending in Patterson) • Through (trips that pass completely through Patterson without stopping) Only the trips originating and ending in Patterson (i.e., Internal trips and Internal/External trips) would be responsible for the TIF fees.

The average citywide characteristics of vehicle travel demand for TIF roadways are shown in Table 6.

These methodologies would be applied to determine the percentage of the project costs that could be funded through the TIF program. Select link methodology was used on the model for allocation and applied as follows:
• Select Link - the cost allocation would be based on link-specific characteristics of vehicle travel demand for the project-related segment (I.e., all the approaching and departure roadway segments of the intersection). The traffic model was used to estimate travel demand characteristics associated with specific transportation improvements as shown in Table 6.

As shown in Table 6, using the model Select Link analysis, the proportion of transportation improvement costs allocated to new development varies by facility or improvement. Generally, approximately seven percent to 10 percent of the trips using the approaching or departure roadway segments of the intersection would pass through Patterson without stopping.

TIF Cost Allocation
The TIF nexus analysis allocates costs based on (1) the amount attributable to new versus existing development, (2) the proportion of trips with at least one trip end in the City (i.e. excludes through trips), and (3) the amount covered by secured funding sources. As described in Chapter 3, none of the projects included in the TIF addresses existing deficiencies. Rather, they are a response to new development and limited to roadways currently operating at a level of service (LOS) within City’s acceptable LOS D or better standards but are expected to deteriorate to unacceptable LOS standards with proposed new developments.

It should be noted that trips from the three major approved projects (West Patterson Business Park Master Plan, Villages of Patterson and West Patterson Business Park Expansion) which has an approved Development Agreement (DA) were not included in the TIF allocation. The cost allocated to future new development (Zacharias/Baldwin Master Plan and Non-Committed land use) are based on the analysis described above and summarized in Table 6.

Table 7 illustrates the net impact of the cost allocations described above. Overall, this TIF analysis allocates approximately $200.2 million in transportation improvement cost to the TIF. The amount represents about 52 percent of the approximately $383 million in future transportation infrastructure costs considered in this analysis.

MAXIMUM FEE CALCULATION
Based on the estimated TIF transportation improvement cost as shown in Table 7, the maximum supportable transportation impact fee per trip is shown in Table 8. The maximum fee per trip is calculated by dividing the estimated total TIF fee program cost of $200.2 million by the total number of trips generated by new TIF related development, or 24,491 (see Table 4). This results in an average TIF per peak hour trip of $8,175.

Table 8: Maximum Fee per Trip
Finally, Table 9 calculates the maximum TIF for several land use category shown in the General Plan. As typically applied in most agencies, the maximum allowable TIF by land use includes a 2 percent charge to cover the administrative cost of administering the TIF program. The maximum supportable fees are the fee levels that would generate sufficient fee revenues to cover the full TIF cost allocation of $200.2 million. As discussed below, decisions to charge fees below the maximum fee will result in funding gaps that would need to be covered by other funding sources.

Typical Approval Process
The TIF and corresponding fee schedule will need to be adopted by City Resolution and Ordinance.

When adopted, the City TIF Ordinance will allow the City Council to collect a fee schedule consistent with supporting technical analysis and findings provided in this Report. The Ordinance approach to setting the TIF fee allows for periodic adjustments of the fee amount that may be necessary over time, without amending the enabling Ordinance.

Fee Amount and Collection
The actual fee levels by land use will need to be approved by the City Council but cannot exceed the maximum allowable fees calculated herein (AB 1600).

While the maximum fee amount has been determined by this study, the City may elect to charge less for a variety of valid reasons. The study recommended an amount depending on the type of land use, as described above.

In the course of implementation, it is likely certain projects may not fit neatly into the land use categories defined in the fee schedule (see Table 9). When this happens, the City Manager or an authorized representative will need to make a determination as to the applicable fees. The TIF Ordinance can provide more specific guidelines for resolving such uncertainty. For example, it may include the option for applicants to furnish information or analysis that will justify their project’s inclusion in a particular land use category and/or a lower fee based on verifiable trip generation rates or other factors.

MEETING DATE: December 5, 2023
ITEM NO: 7.2
SUBJECT: Approve Resolution No. 2023-55, approving a Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map consisting of 247 lots on 46.23 acres of land, also known as The Villages of Patterson - Sycamore Ranch II.

RECOMMENDATION
Motion to Approve Resolution No. 2023-55, approving a Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map consisting of 247 lots on 46.23 acres of land, also known as The Villages of Patterson - Sycamore Ranch II.

BACKGROUND
A public hearing to consider a vesting tentative subdivision map (VTSM) encompassing approximately 46.23 acres of land. The map would result in 247 lots proposed for development of single-family housing, along with streets and other infrastructure facilities. Project was reviewed by the Planning Commission at the October 26, 2023 meeting, receiving a 4-0 approval vote.

In June 2007, the City Council approved the Villages of Patterson Master Development Plan along with related entitlements. The plan provided a framework for the development of approximately 680 acres of land in the northeast area of the City and included 3,100 housing units, parkland, space for schools, as well as some industrial and neighborhood-serving commercial areas. Key elements of the plan include a diversity of lot sizes and housing types that are predominately street oriented, with an emphasis on pedestrian, bicycle and public transportation options, and the provision of green spaces to connect neighborhoods and provide easy access to parks.

The original Villages of Patterson Master Plan approval included several tentative subdivision

7.2 Packet Pg. 76
maps, primarily along Walnut Avenue and Sycamore Avenue, as the initial phases of the development. These maps initiated the development of single-family residences still under construction in those areas and nearing build-out. The present VTSM represents the first map presented to the Planning Commission for the Villages of Patterson Area, since initial review of the Master Plan in 2007.

ANALYSIS
The project site is bounded by Olive Avenue to the south, the future Wimbley Parkway to the west, future English Oak Avenue to the north, and Sycamore Avenue to the east. Per the City of Patterson General Plan and the Master Plan, the project site designated for Medium-Density and Low-Density Residential development.

The project site is currently used for, and generally surrounded by, agricultural uses with a single residence located near the northeast corner. The project site will surround two existing singlefamily dwellings located along Olive Avenue.

The proposed map includes lots for 247 single-family dwellings with minimum lot widths of 45- feet and minimum lot depths of 90-feet for an average lot size of 4,610 square feet, a density of

5.34 units per acre. The applicant proposes to develop the property in accordance with the standards established in the Medium Density Residential District which require 5.1 to 12 units per acre. The proposal includes street circulation providing access to and around the lots, including sidewalk, curbs, gutters, streetlights, etc. To encourage bicycle and pedestrian circulation around the site and taking into consideration the future park sites to the north, a pedestrian connection (Lots “B” & “C”) is provided on the northern end of Ashwood Avenue along English Oak Avenue (future road).

Six-foot soundwalls have been constructed in previous subdivisions within the Villages of Patterson. With required changes in lot grading, staff has determined that six-foot sound walls are not sufficient to provide privacy to the dwellings. Staff recommends as a condition of the project to construct seven-foot sound walls along English Oak Avenue, Ashwood Avenue, Olive Avenue, and Sycamore Avenue. Additionally, these sound walls shall also extend and be provided around Lots “B” and “C”. Wall design and complete layout is subject to additional review and approval by the City Engineer and Community Development Director.

The infrastructure improvements proposed by the applicant are consistent with the Villages of Patterson Master Plan. Sycamore Avenue will be fully constructed on the westside of the street within an 83-foot right-of-way. English Oak Avenue will be fully constructed from centerline to the south within a right-of-way ranging from 69-feet to 82-feet with 14-foot westbound travel lanes, 8-foot bike lane, 7-foot landscaping and 5-foot-wide sidewalk. The proposed project includes a 12-foot-wide bike trail, that connects from Street K along the north side of Ashwood Lane, to the intersection of English Oak Avenue. This section of bike trail is an extension of bikeway trails within the Development Plan Bike Way system allowing for pedestrian accessibility and connectivity within the neighborhoods.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW/CEQA COMPLIANCE

7.2 Packet Pg. 77
An environmental impact report (EIR) was adopted for the Villages of Patterson Development Plan Project in 2007, SCH# 2006032043. The EIR concluded that buildout of the area could result in a number of significant adverse impacts. Mitigation measures recommended by the EIR reduce many of these potentially significant environmental impacts to a less than significant level. Impacts for which no feasible mitigation was available were subject to Findings of Overriding Consideration.

Staff reviewed the proposed project for consistency with the EIR and consistency with CEQA.

Based on that review, the project is consistent with the EIR and would not result in any new or increased impacts outside of those outlined in the EIR.

FISCAL IMPACT
The Project should have no impact to the City’s general fund, as the established residential maintenance CFD will offset long-term maintenance costs.

ITEM NO: 7.3
SUBJECT: Approve the CEQA Addendum to the 2010 General Plan EIR for the Parks and Recreation Master Plan (PRMP) and adopt the Parks and Recreation Master Plan.

RECOMMENDATION
Motion to Approve the CEQA Addendum to the 2010 General Plan EIR for the Parks and Recreation Master Plan and adopt the Parks and Recreation Master Plan.

BACKGROUND
The City’s consultant on the PRMP, Gates and Associates, have completed work on the draft of the Master Plan. The Master Plan is now complete and ready for adoption by City Council.

On September 8, 2022, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the master plan to the City Council with a 4-0 vote.

ANALYSIS
At the last City Council meeting, staff recorded two primary sources of concern for city council members and the public regarding the Parks and Recreation Master Plan: dual use of storm drain basins, unfulfilled developer responsibilities, use of natural areas, and reactions to climate change.

Dual-Use Basins
Concerns related to the use of dual-use basins comprised two areas: The loss of at-grade park space and loss of park space due to rain events.

7.3 Packet Pg. 97
The latest three large residential developments that have been approved, were developed using principles close to those laid out in the Master Plans. Namely, that dual-use basins are given limited park credit depending on how much of the space is actually available for recreational activities. City staff typically pursues higher standards, but the Master Plan outlines a minimum baseline of one acre of uninterrupted turf area and an extremely gentle slope to receive credit as park space. The City has effectively used dual-use basins as a way to gain more park space as outlined in the table below.

Required park acreage Provided park acreage
Villages of Patterson 38.75 65
Zacharias 94 104*
Baldwin Ranch North 5.6 12.3
* Additional trail and recreation space may be available, depending on the design of the of the recharge basin.

For each of these projects, city staff has required that basins be restricted to large basin areas (with some temporary exceptions). This allows the basins to be designed with tiers so that water pools only in the lowest areas, leaving most of the space still available for recreational use.

Upper portions of the basin would only be filled during the heaviest rain events.

On average, basins are designed to empty of water within 24 hours. In an average year, dual-use basins are available for recreational use over 99% of the year. Should these uses be separated in the future, it will be difficult to utilize basins as recreation space in the future due to State law restrictions on the use of turf. Further, basins only used for storm drain detention/retention would typically be fenced off and unusable to the community - wasting space required for stormwater detention only a few days each year - that could otherwise by utilized as combination recreational space for the vast remainder of each year.

While there are examples of dual-use basins within city limits that are just grassed-over depressions. All parks developed over the last two years include additional amenities. The Master Plan furthers those goals by recommending that all neighborhood parks should have elements that serve each of the following functions: active sports, passive recreation, play areas, picnic areas, gathering areas, and accessibility.

Developer Responsibility
The City of Patterson has held developers accountable for park space. In all instances, developers have provided the required park space and park fees. Where there may be a perceived failure is in larger neighborhood facilities controlled by the City. Developers do not build these facilities, instead, they pay an in lieu fee for their fair share costs related to these facilities. One of the challenges for the city is the timing of fees versus the costs of projects. By law, impact fees charged by the city are required to have a “nexus” with the cost. This means that the city may only require developers to pay for the costs associated with their development.

The city may not build in additional fees and may not make up for existing deficiencies. As a result, the city collects fees, but must wait until there is a sufficient amount held to pay for the improvement. During this interim period construction costs escalate and, usually, by the time the

7.3 Packet Pg. 98
city has enough funds for the project, the cost of the project is significantly more than the initial estimated amount. The city can combat this to a degree through regular fee updates to adjust for inflation, however, this is an ongoing issue where the city is hampered by State law to gather sufficient funding.

Natural Areas
Most of the areas discussed during the city council meeting addressed locations outside of the City’s General Plan area. For instance, only a small portion of Del Puerto Canyon is located within the General Plan area. The Master Plan is limited to locations within the General Plan area, so any discussion of other areas are not within this document’s oversight. Even if the locations are in the General Plan area, the city does not have jurisdiction unless the location is within the city limits. In total, the Master Plan is not the appropriate tool to respond to these concerns. However, language has been provided related to pursuit of recreational opportunities in the hillside area.

Climate Change
The Master Plan calls for park systems that include drought tolerant vegetation, recyclable materials. Additionally, the plan calls for parks that are within walking distance within neighborhoods with easy sidewalk and bike path access so that driving to the park is not the only option or the most appealing option.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the CEQA Addendum to the 2010 General Plan EIR for the Parks and Recreation Master Plan and adopt the Parks and Recreation Master Plan

BACKGROUND
In 2011, the City embarked on a process of updating existing Master Plans and creation of new Master Plans that would help guide how and where necessary facilities could be built in response to planned future growth. These master plans would address public safety, parks and recreation, roadways and circulation, water, wastewater and storm drainage. If the General Plan can be considered the bones of the city, providing a framework for how the city should develop, the master plans add a muscular system, which provides more definition to their respective subjects.

The master plans were undertaken concurrently, so that – as much as possible – each plan could be integrated with the others. For instance, the bicycle and pedestrian system was based, in part, upon information from both the Transportation Infrastructure Master Plan and the PRMP to ensure that individuals and families would be able to use that system to access key locations throughout the city, including public recreation venues.

Around 2015, as the master plans neared completion, two changes occurred: First, the City Council directed staff to more closely scrutinize the master plans to ensure the recommendations were fiscally responsible and reasonable; and second, a series of laws were passed at the state level that required some changes to the master plans, particularly related to water issues, but that had impacts on other master plans. During the intervening period, staff and consultants have worked to address issues presented by a continually shifting State legal landscape.

The City’s consultant on the PRMP, Gates and Associates, have completed work on the draft of the Master Plan. The Master Plan is now complete and ready for adoption by City Council.

On September 8, 2022, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the master plan to the City Council with a 4-0 vote.

ANALYSIS
The PRMP serves as a long-term vision to guide the future of the City’s park system and provides standards and policies to direct day-to-day decisions.

Specifically, the PRMP provides:
• background and context for evaluating the existing parks system; • an inventory of existing parks and recreation facilities and programs; • an analysis of the appropriate standards that will meet the needs of the current and future population;
• recommendations for improving and maintaining the existing park system; • recommendations for acquiring or obtaining access to additional properties for future park uses;
• a strategy for addressing recreation needs, as well as managing and maintaining recreational facilities;
• an approach for implementation of improvements and long-term maintenance; and • a record of the community involvement in developing the plan.

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 PURPOSE OF DOCUMENT
The City of Patterson undertook a coordinated planning effort in 2012 to ensure that it provides adequate infrastructure for its current and future residents, visitors, and employees. This Parks and Recreation Master Plan was initiated as part of that coordinated effort in 2012, which also included the General Plan, Transportation Infrastructure Master Plan, and an update to the Zoning Code, among others. The final draft of the Parks and Recreation Master Plan was created and available for public review, but the adoption process was placed on hold while the other plans in the coordinated efforts begun in 2012 were finalized and adopted. Now, in 2021/2022, the Parks and Recreation Master Plan is refreshed for adoption.

The Parks and Recreation Master Plan lays out the City’s vision for the future of its parks and recreation facilities. As a strategic document, it studies the existing park system and facilities, and identifies a planning blueprint to expand, improve and protect the City’s network of parks and facilities as the City continues to grow.

The Parks and Recreation Master Plan process is similar to many strategic plan processes: the context is analyzed, demographic analysis is conducted, an inventory of resources is generated, community input and guidance is solicited, a needs assessment is performed, standards are proposed, goals and recommendations result, and an implementation plan is adopted. This plan builds on itself, section by section, with each chapter using the previous chapter(s) information to define steps required to address issues identified.

The Parks and Recreation Master Plan provides:
• background and context for evaluating the existing parks system; • an inventory of existing parks and recreation facilities and programs; • an analysis of the appropriate standards that will meet the needs of the current and future population;
• recommendations for improving and maintaining the existing park system;
• recommendations for acquiring or obtaining access to additional properties for future park uses;

1 INTRODUCTION
• a strategy for addressing recreation needs, as well as managing and maintaining recreational facilities;
• an approach for implementation of improvements and long term maintenance; and
• a record of the community involvement in developing the plan.

The Parks and Recreation Master Plan provides both a long-term vision for the City’s park system, and specific policies and standards to direct day-to-day decisions. It sets forth a framework that will allow the City to respond to new opportunities as they arise, and to ensure that new development provides adequate parks and recreation facilities to meet the needs of Patterson’s current and future residents.

1.2 ROLE OF PARKS & RECREATION
As stated in the City of Patterson’s 2010 General Plan, “Parks, recreation, and cultural resources are essential components of any community. ... Access to such spaces is vital for every segment of Patterson’s population.”
Parks meet the diverse recreational needs of the community. They promote health and wellness at a time when lifestyles are tending to become more sedentary. They help people deal with the stress of daily living, and support positive social interactions. The Recreation and Community Services Department provides programs that focus on health and wellness for everyone, enbodied in its theme “Live Active.” A high quality park system provides economic benefits. It enhances community character and identity, creating a more attractive place to live, work and visit. This, in turn, raises property values, attracts quality employers, and generates revenues for local businesses.

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
2 CONTEXT
To plan a park and recreation system that will best meet the needs of current and future residents of Patterson, one must understand the context - the climate and physical setting, the current and projected demographics, other planning efforts that affect the Parks and Recreation Master Plan, and evolving trends in the way people use parks and what they expect from their parks and recreation system.

The City of Patterson is a general law city located in Stanislaus County with a population of approximately 23,000 residents. The city has experienced significant growth and projects a population of 66,000 at buildout in 2050. Patterson is committed to the strategic and financially sustainable development of the city, and has thus embarked on their first Parks and Recreation Master Plan. A key objective of the Plan is to guide the development of parks, athletic fields, and community facilities so that the Recreation and Community Service Department can achieve health and wellness for the Patterson community.

Recreation and Community
Services Department Mission
Statement:
• Strives to deliver quality
programs for all generations,
by creating memorable experiences, a sense of community, and encouraging a Healthy,
Active Life.

2.1 ROLE OF PARKS AND RECREATION
The community benefits of parks and recreation are well documented and widely accepted. These benefits include:

Personal Benefits
Parks and recreation foster social, intellectual, physical and emotional development in children, youth, adults and seniors. They improve health and well-being by providing places and programs that support active living and positive lifestyle choices. Remaining healthy and active can lower a family’s medical costs. The types of activities supported by parks and recreation improve the quality of life. Parks Make Life Better!
Social Benefits
A park and recreation system that is well thought out, well maintained and well-used, strengthens community image and sense of place. It enhances community identity and increases community pride. It both promotes cultural unity and celebrates diversity. Engaging in healthy recreation reduces alienation, loneliness, and anti-social behavior, and contributes to building strong families. Parks also play a major role in protecting environmental resources.

Economic Benefits
A good park and recreation system has proven economic benefits. It helps to attract and retain businesses and residents, becoming a tool 2022 DRAFT

for business development. It creates a more productive work force with fewer days of sick leave. Great parks and successful recreation programs also attract visitors and tourists, which contribute to the local economy. A sports complex or performing arts center is a destination inviting regional use and bringing patrons to local businesses. A successful park system improves and sustains property value. Well used parks have been shown to reduce vandalism, thus saving public maintenance funds.

Parks and recreation play an important role in creating and sustaining the quality of life the community. The implementation of the Master Plan will ensure that parks and facilities are available and accessible to all community members. The Plan creates opportunities for physical, social, and artistic activities that are enjoyable, promote confidence, and encourage interaction between community members, friends, peers, and parents.

2.2 PHYSICAL SETTING
The City of Patterson is located in the western San Joaquin Valley, in a fertile agricultural area between the Diablo Range to the west and the San Joaquin River to the east. The city is surrounded by agricultural lands, including orchards, row crops and fields. The Delta Mendota Canal and the California Aqueduct run along the western edge of the city, and irrigation laterals cross the area.

For the most part, Patterson’s topography is relatively flat. The Diablo Range rises to the west, and a portion of the lower foothills is within the General Plan area. Del Puerto Creek, which runs from the foothills along the northern edge of the General Plan area, provides wildlife habitat. The Salado Creek corridor, which flows generally northsouth through the city, provides an open space connection through residential neighborhoods. Stormwater is managed through the use of detention basins, which are often incorporated into neighborhood parks and water features. East of the city limits, the San Joaquin River is both an element of the city’s identity, and a potential recreational and habitat amenity.

Patterson enjoys warm spring and fall weather, hot summers, and relatively cool winters. With an average of 12 inches of annual rainfall, outdoor activity is possible throughout the year. Given the average 2022 DRAFT

high temperatures in the upper 90’s during the summer months, shade provided by a mature tree canopy or structures is important for the health and safety of park users.

2.3 DEMOGRAPHICS
The City of Patterson has embarked on this Parks and Recreation Master Plan as a strategic planning tool to ensure the residents’ vision for the community is documented and a course developed to achieve the plan. Demographic analysis assists in identifying the characteristics of the population residing with the City of Patterson and how those factors may affect the Parks and Recreation program, parks, and facility needs. This analysis also aids in understanding how the local demographics are either similar or different from state and national trends.

Population Forecast
The population of Patterson rose most precipitously from 2000 to 2010, increasing over 75%. The decade prior, 1990 to 2000, the population had significantly increased by 32.2%. Since 2010, the population growth has slowed, with the City population increasing 16.5% to 23,781 residents in the 2020 Census. Stanislaus County projects Patterson to increase to 41,465 residents by 2042, a rate twice that of growth over the last decade (2018 Regional Transportation Plan).

Age Distribution
A profile of the population’s age provides important information to assist in parks and recreation programming since different age groups have different requirements, needs, and desires for their participation with parks and recreation facilities.

According to the 2019 5-year American Community Survey estimates, Patterson’s median age is 31.1, compared to California’s 36.5. Youth under 18 years of age comprise 29.6% of the population, compared with 22.5% in California as a whole. Worthy to note that about half of those were youth ages 9 and under (17.5%). The next largest age group is the Family Forming Adults (27.4%) ages 25 – 44 years. These percentages have remained consistent since the 2000 Census, and reflect the family oriented character of Patterson.

Although the total population of the City of Patterson is not expected to change significantly over the next few years, the need for park and 2022 DRAFT

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
2 CONTEXT
recreation amenities will remain in demand with the high percentage of young age groups and potential family forming segments that typically rely on community recreation for their leisure services. This is a result of the influx of growth in the community over the past two decades from families relocating to take advantage of Patterson’s affordable housing opportunities. Since the majority of the population is newer residents, there does not appear to be a dramatic shift in older age segments of the population as evidenced in older established communities. In addition, according to the State of California Recreation Trends Report, 2005, California’s 18–40 year-old young adults are creating new ways to experience the great outdoors. The City of Patterson has embraced this trend with the surrounding natural amenities available to them.

Patterson has a large percentage of school age youth, from 5-17 years of age. This is the group targeted for the after school, youth sport programs, aquatics, and teen club programs. There will continue to be a demand for programming that targets this age group. This suggests a market and desire for after school and summer camp programs; recreational youth sport leagues and recreational activities, and spaces for family events and social gatherings.

Household Composition
There are currently 5,958 households in Patterson as reported in the 2019 ACS data. Of this number, 60.9 percent are considered family households. The number of Patterson family households is an indicator that there will be high interest and support for youth activities as well as activities and facilities that serve families.

In 2019, the percentage of families with children aged 17 and under below the poverty level and residing in the City of Patterson, was

25.7% (986). Patterson residents living at poverty level or below benefit from the subsidized programming and scholarships offered by the Recreation and Community Services Department, which directly contributes to the quality of community life.

Race and ethnicity play an important role in the population’s parks and recreation needs and desires. Trends can be found in the ways that different races/ethnic groups use parks and recreation facilities and the types of programming they seek. Patterson’s predominately Hispanic 2022 DRAFT

or Latino population (62.9% as of 2019) influences the way recreation and park services are supported and engaged. Recognizing the cultural heritage of those served by recreation and park providers assists in addressing their particular cultural needs and desires. This presents opportunities to offer a variety of parks and recreation programs that celebrate the specific interests and cultures of its residents.

Education and Income
Research indicates that a person’s physical activity level is determined by a number of factors, including education, income, and gender. In Patterson, for those 25 years of age or older, 73.6% of the population are high school graduates or higher. According to The Hispanic Community and Outdoor Recreation Study (UCLA 2006), “There appears to be some correlation between different education levels, sex, and household size when measuring the level of physical activity amongst Hispanics. Hispanics with the highest education levels appear to be the most active”. Demographic findings indicate that education will need to be a primary focus of program offerings for the community center and will require marketing and community acceptance to encourage participation.

The education level is also reflected in the median household income of $69,233 with 21.9% in retail trade industries and 27.5% listed as unemployed or not in the labor force. This presents a challenge to the City of Patterson as to the cost recovery of program and activity offerings in relation to ability to pay. Community recreation or subsidized programming is a factor in the successful utilization of programs to this specific population group.

Travel Time to Work
The average travel time to work for a Patterson resident is approximately 44.5 minutes and over 81% drive alone. This suggests that the community’s mobile and leisure activities are pursued on weekends, and later in the day, after work and travel, resulting in a potential demand for after school and summer day programming that responds to this time frame.

Recreation and Parks as Community Builders
An important consideration for the City of Patterson is the number of foreign-born people living in the community. According to the Park and Recreation Trends in California 2005 report by the California State 2022 DRAFT

Parks Resources Agency, “a remarkable 37% of California’s foreignborn have arrived since 1990, making California a large and important center for recent immigrants. Many of these recent immigrants have limited experience with the ready availability of outdoor recreation and public lands”. The City of Patterson will be encouraged to develop ways to engage their culturally diverse population to become users of and advocates for parks and recreation services.

Research has also shown that the availability of opportunities to engage in physical activity is positively correlated with the amount of physical activity in which people engage. The availability of parks and recreation services are vital to increasing physical activity across all age groups and play an essential role in reducing obesity rates. When evaluating the availability of these opportunities, an important consideration is their accessibility and proximity to residents in addition to their existence. Physical barriers, safety concerns, and distance to parks and facilities can prevent residents from using the facilities and programs. Research has found that larger sizes of parks and open spaces do not increase the frequency or intensity of use, but rather the distance to the park or open space is the greatest deterring factor. In Patterson, the lack of transportation for youth and the dependency to travel by foot or bicycle hinders their ability to participate in planned activities. This is a challenge in developing recreation facilities, programs and parks, which are accessible to the youth in particular.

2.4 RECREATION TRENDS
State and national social, economic, and environmental trends will have an impact on the demand and the delivery of recreation services in the City of Patterson. Trend analysis is one forecasting tool to assist in determining the societal interest and potential use of amenities and services for recreation and leisure pursuits. According to Ruth V.

Russell in a report for Indiana State University, “Unrelenting financial problems, more federal and state requirements, enhanced demands for services to an aging population, program requirements catering to greater diversity of lifestyles, a shrinking and ethnically changing work force, stiffer competition for tax dollars, increasing violent crimes in parks, a movement toward privatization of operations, computerization, shrinking public images of the profession, and lack of citizen involvement are among the challenges now faced by public recreation and park agencies”.

The population of Patterson double over the last twenty years (2000 to 2020). Many new residents have come from urban environments in search of a higher standard of living as well as a lower cost-of-living.

Some new residents have brought with them a few of the urban social ills they sought to leave. These newcomers require a good social outlet, and a place to encourage positive behavior. Preparing for this population growth and anticipating their preferences and culturally diverse needs are challenges facing the City of Patterson.

Top Ranked Trends Impacting Parks Departments
According to a report presented by Ruth V. Russell on Public Park and Recreation Trends, the following is a list of trend impacts on the parks and recreation profession:

EXTREME IMPACT

1. Deteriorating park and recreation infrastructure

2. Increasing crime (violence, drug use, vandalism, gangs) in communities and parks

3. Declining park and recreation budgets relative to costs

4. Increasing competition for shrinking federal, state, and local tax resources

5. Massive public sector debt

GREAT IMPACT

6. Neglect of children

7. Greater cultural diversity (growing and more influential minority populations)

8. Greater difficulty in providing equal opportunity for leisure to all people

9. Declining quality of life and livability of urban areas (insufficient open space, deteriorating city)

10. Greater division between “haves” and “have-nots”
The result of these impacts is an increased public demand for participation, accountability, and productivity in government. Parks and recreation services are being required to think in terms of sustainability, how to be competitive in the marketplace, and the application of business practices in their operational planning.

The global pandemic increased public appreciation and demand for parks. Parks became a place of fresh air, peace, exercise, and meditation during and after the stay-at-home orders enacted in response to the crisis. A report by the Trust for Public Land identifies access to nature paramount in a time of stress overload. Parks saw a surge in visitors during the pandemic, as a respite and destination when so many other places were shuttered. Parks provide access to nature, recreation, and exercise, and green infrastructure was in the spotlight for the mental health benefits it provides. Continuing the positive momentum developed for parks during the pandemic should be utilized to betterment of the parks and recreation system.

Trends in Demographic Groups
• BABY BOOMERS
The aging of the population is having a tremendous impact at both a national and state level. Baby Boomers account for 17.9% of the population in 2019. Even though the population is “graying”, their needs are becoming more active, increasing demand for spaces and amenities to accommodate a greater variety of programming and active lifestyles.

They have a more positive concept of age as well as different fitness interests, retirement and work expectations, social connection desires, and health and wellness needs.

Many of today’s older adults will age in place. As baby boomers approach what was formerly retirement age, most do not plan to retire like the generations before them. A recent study found that 7 in 10 Americans plan to work following retirement from their career. This has a profound impact on the provision of senior services. The new multi-generational service model, rather than the traditional senior center, must be contemporary, active, service oriented, and dynamic in its offerings. These centers approach education, work, recreation, and leisure as lifelong activities, which span the entire continuum of adult life and no longer view retirement as a slowing down of active pursuits.

Over the last decade, California has experienced one of the fastest rates of increase in adult obesity of any state in the nation. AARP conducted a national survey of adults born in 1946. From this survey, researchers found that the area of their lives that 60 year-olds want to improve the most over the next five years is their physical health.

To increase their physical health, many will include exercise walking, 2022 DRAFT

as it has become the most popular activity for Americans over age

45. To facilitate this, City of Patterson should provide for fitness and recreation facilities and amenities for continued exercise and health to include the boomer generation.

Many of today’s boomers are part of the “sandwich generation,” providing some care for a parent and their own children. Forty-four percent of Americans between the ages of 45 and 55 have an aging parent(s) and children under the age of 21. The impact on recreation and aquatics has been the increased interest in programs and facilities that are designed to serve the needs and interests of children, adults, and older adults at a single location and often, simultaneously. • YOUTH
In recent years, the recognition of the youth obesity crisis in the United States has become widespread. In the past two decades, obesity rates have doubled in children (aged 6-11) and tripled in adolescents (aged 12-17). Currently, 40 percent of children in the United States over age six are overweight. Of these children, one in three born after the year 2000 will develop diabetes.

This trend is directly impacted by the loss of free time that children have. Over the past two decades, children have lost 12 hours of free time a week, including eight hours of unstructured play and outdoor activities. If current trends in obesity and physical inactivity continue, today’s youth will be the first generation in this nation’s history to face a shorter life expectancy than their parents.

In contrast, over the past two decades, participation in organized sports has doubled; however, sports participation does not ensure the necessary levels of physical activity required for health and physical fitness. There is a sharp reduction in casual play and a trend towards sport specialization and year round competition in a single sport and the growth of traveling competitive teams. This trend contributes to the pressure and lack of “fun” formerly associated with team sports.

Also, specialization excludes the less skilled players who then do not feel as adequate. Parks and recreation services can play a major role by offering sport programming which introduces a variety of sports within one program and sports that are not as competitive in nature.

Studies indicate that children and adolescents are more likely to become physically active and fit if they have a wide range of accessible, 2022 DRAFT

safe, and affordable recreation opportunities. The provision of youth and teen programs within the City of Patterson is critical to fighting childhood obesity and instilling healthy habits attributing to the wellness of the community’s youth and teens. • MILLENNIALS
The generation born between 1982 and 2000 are referred to as the Millennial Generation (also known as Generation Y or Echo Boomers) and are now between the ages of 21-39 years and number about 10 million in California. Millennials are the most educated of Americans, most ethnically diverse generation in U.S. history and possess the most disposable income. However, Millennials are “the only generation significantly less likely to agree that all people should be connected with nature” and “that it is important to be outside as much as possible.” The resulting factors are this generation is facing increased health and obesity risks, and are less connected with their natural environment and community. City of Patterson Recreation and Community Services Department should remain current with new tech tools, and programs need to be kept “fresh” and with a less competitive emphasis on the outcomes to maintain the interest of the Millennials.

Trends in Park & Facility Design
• COMMUNITY DESIGN
Cities throughout the state and the nation are working to address the issue of social alienation and physical inactivity through community design. As inactivity and social isolation increase, so does the incidence of obesity, heart disease, diabetes, depression, and mental illness. The trend for parks and recreation is toward making parks usable and vibrant social meeting places. “Project for Public Spaces has researched what attributes most social places share. We found that a good place provides a range of things to do (“uses and activities”); is easy to get to and connected to the surrounding community (“access”); is safe, clean, attractive (“comfort and image”); and, perhaps, most important, is a place to meet other people (“sociability”).”
Not only are park departments concerned with making parks social meeting places they are also responding to the demands of the rising sandwich generation and extended families by making parks multigenerational family destinations. No longer is a mother dropping her child off at the ball field. Today, a mother will join her child with 2022 DRAFT

perhaps a grandparent to enjoy park and recreational time while her child is near-by. This trend reiterates the need for parks to combine active and passive uses and provide for a variety of activities within close proximity of each other.
• ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN
Parks and recreation departments have a long history of stewardship of the environment. Green building components can be included in almost any facility or park and they can have a significant impact on the cost to operate the facility. This trend toward environmental sensitivity in design can be accomplished by reclaiming land, preserving open space, acknowledging environmental principles, recycling water, conserving resources and using environmentally friendly “green” materials. Further, these components are not only environmentally responsible; they are economically beneficial. At the onset green materials, components and designs may seem financially prohibitive yet green has a significant impact on the cost to operate and maintain facilities and generally pays off over the life span of the project. When designing for new facilities City of Patterson should thoroughly consider the cost benefits of green and sustainable concepts and incorporate the best practices of environmental design and sustainability into their projects. • PARKS
According to a 2019 survey by Recreation Management, the top parks and open space features being planned for construction over the coming years are:
• Splash play areas
• Playgrounds
• Fitness trails and outdoor fitness equipment
• Synthetic turf sports fields
• Dog parks
• Park shelters
• Walking and hiking trails
• Park restrooms
This is reflective of the trend towards unstructured play, access to green spaces, and outdoor fitness. Linking parks together with green corridors and trails is a trend of community design that encourages people to come outside and “move about” the community encouraging 2022 DRAFT

socialization, fitness, and appreciation of the natural resources. • PLAYGROUNDS AND NATURE DEFICIT DISORDER
Playgrounds are the most common amenity found in parks. There is a growing trend toward “natural” play areas and use of the playground as a gateway to nature. In response to fitness and movement, playgrounds are being used to entice children outside and into their environment for play and spontaneous learning as well as developing an appreciation for the natural environment.
• AQUATICS
According to national surveys, swimming is second only to walking as the most popular form of exercise, with more than 368 million annual visits to swimming pools. A variety of surveys and studies provide evidence of the importance of swimming as a leisure activity. In response to this tremendous demand, aquatic facilities and programming have changed dramatically in recent years to better serve the public.

The family aquatic center responded to a need for increased and more varied programming and accessibility and decreased density. Features such as a zero-depth (beach) entry, water slides, leisure and activity areas, and interactive water play features provide the attraction for families. These features are critical to the annual participation and the financial success of the facility.
• Water Exercise
Not only is swimming popular but there is increasing demand for water exercise. Water exercise is reported to have a higher percentage of growth in participation than all other forms of water activity. With water supporting up to 90% of one’s body weight, persons of all ages and abilities can achieve movement in the water. Further, since exercises can be performed in shallow or deep water, it encourages nonswimmers to participate. • Splash Play
The addition of spraygrounds as park elements embodies the current approach toward accessibility, safety, innovation, and affordability.

According to Recreation Management magazine in their 2019 State of the Industry survey report, the top feature to be added to parks being developed is splash play areas. Installed over zero-depth pads, splash play features allow a place to have some fun in the sun and water without having to hire staff to keep a constant watch over the facility. 2022 DRAFT

Additional cost and maintenance considerations arise with installation of spraygrounds, due to requirements for restrooms and shower facilities if the sprayground water is recirculated. • CULTURAL DIVERSITY
Cultural diversity is an important factor as it influences the way segments of the population approaches recreation and leisure pursuits.

These groups will be growing participants in the offerings of Recreation and Community Services and in order to encourage their participation, the program offerings need to address their interests and needs.

Hispanics have identifiable recreational characteristics based in their culture, traditions and family relationships that are necessary to determine in the successful provision of facilities and programs. The Hispanic population values leisure, and 74 percent report that leisure time is spent mostly or exclusively with other Hispanics. Within the realm of “leisure,” casual, informal gathering of friends and family is the preferred activity. The influence of socialization plays a large part on the recreation experience, thus there is need to provide a variety of facilities for social gathering usage.

Another trend observed multiple places in the future’s literature is that a process of cultural homogenization is occurring. There is a growth of a national society. U.S. citizens travel more, we hear and see the same messages in the mass media, intermarriages are more frequent, and schools teach essentially the same thing across the country -- all this has a leveling influence.
• FITNESS
According to 2020 estimates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), over 34 million Americans have diabetes, and over 88 million Americans have prediabetes. In a recent study, CDC projected that as many as 1 in 3 U.S. adults could have diabetes by 2050 if current trends continue. Parks and Recreation Departments can assist in reversing this trend by providing fitness amenities and alternatives for community members of all ages to partake in and support the fitness movement. The five most popular fitness activities in the U.S. are walking for fitness, treadmills, running/jogging, stretching, and hand weights. Providing opportunities for these types of activities, indoor and out, should be considered in park and facility design. 2022 DRAFT

Trends in Park & Recreation Programming
In recent years, overall trends have reflected a growing interest in and attention to lifelong health and fitness, programs accommodating all ages and abilities, multi-generational activities, and innovative and expansive concepts of recreation.
• HEALTH AND FITNESS
Park and recreation programs are taking a more active role in community health and fitness. Parks and recreation departments partner in programs such as ParksRX, where health providers and physicians prescribe outdoor fitness activities and time in nature for improved physical and mental health outcomes. They partner with Health Care agencies to incentivize active outdoor recreation with programs for children and families.

By offering programs that engage children in sports and activities that can remain enjoyable and continue as lifelong habits, parks and recreation departments provide a foundation for long term healthy living.

Sports such as tennis, soccer and basketball, as well as activities such as biking, hiking, and swimming can be an easily accessible source of enjoyable exercise throughout the adult years.

Parks and recreation departments are also focusing on health and fitness needs of specific demographics. “Mommy Fitness” exercise and wellness classes and activities, offered during pregnancy and toddlerraising years support the well-being the many Gen X and Gen Y women of child bearing age. Sport and fitness programming for active older adults engages that cohort who do not think of themselves as “Seniors.” Therapeutic recreation programming focusing on the health and wellness of our aging population is also expanding in creative ways, providing social settings for activities that improve strength, balance, and mobility. • INCLUSIVENESS & MULTI-GENERATIONAL ACTIVITIES
There has been an increasing awareness of providing programming that is appealing and accessible to people of all ages and abilities. Cities nationwide are facing the challenge of how to support families. This challenge includes creating parks and programs that address child development – physical, social and cognitive.

fered that allow children with all ranges of physical and mental abilities to fully participate. Recreation offerings must consider children of all ages and their families.

Teenagers are perhaps the most challenging of this group. As a whole, they do not want to be categorized with children, may not want to be part of an organized group, and are often more interested in exploring a larger realm. They often indicate a desire to”hang out,” and need safe places day and night to do this. Evaluating how to provide safe and enjoyable experiences for this group is paramount to fully serving the needs of residents.
• EXPANDING ROLE OF RECREATION
Park and recreation departments are expanding their offerings beyond their historic limits. Aside from traditional programs such as organized sports, recreation now includes educational enrichment programs, fine arts and performing arts focus, mind-body balance programs, “maker spaces” for creative tinkering and experimentation, and more. Recreation professionals are providing an ever widening range of experiences for participants.

Trends in the initiatives planned by recreation organizations reflect this expanding focus. The 2019 Recreation Survey identified the top initiatives that responding organizations are involved in:
• Wellness initiatives
• Inclusion initiatives for those with physical disabilities • Outreach to economically disadvantaged populations
• Outreach to underserved populations
• Inclusion initiatives for those with developmental disabilities • Outreach to minority populations
• Resource conservation and green initiatives
• Initiatives to connect people with nature
• Initiatives to reduce hunger/improve nutrition
• Disaster recovery assistance
Parks and recreation departments typically offer a diverse range of programming service to their communities, from preschool programs to trips for older adults. Creative programming and keeping things fresh make the difference between falling revenue and steady performance.

According to the 2019 Recreation Management survey, the most commonly planned program additions include:

• Group exercise programs
• Fitness programs
• Educational programs
• Programs for active older adults
• Mind-body balance programs
• Teen programs
• Day camps and summer camps
• Holidays and other special events
• Environmental education
• Special needs programs
These categories resemble the typical list of program offerings from Recreation Departments. Combining the typical program offerings with new trends keeps community members interested and connected.

The creative spin on the program offerings, effective marketing, and keeping current on the preferences of community members will be the difference in successful programming in today’s competitive market.

2.5 PLANNING CONTEXT
2010 General Plan
The City of Patterson adopted its 2010 General Plan on November 30, 2010. This plan set forth a vision of Patterson’s future, recognizing the importance of parks and recreation. General Plan, Goal PR-1, in the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources Element is “To establish and maintain a public park system and recreation facilities suited to the needs of Patterson residents and visitors.” To this end, Policy PR-1.1 calls for the preparation and adoption of a Parks and Recreation Facilities Master Plan. The General Plan also sets a minimum standard of five acres of developed parkland per 1,000 residents.

Infrastructure Master Plans
The City has undertook master planning for a range of infrastructure needs including Public Safety, Circulation, Stormwater, Water and Wastewater in the early 2010s. The process of developing the Master Plans included collaboration between plans wherever appropriate to take advantage of synergies and to maximize the benefits of each plan.

Examples include design and planning of stormwater detention facilities to function as dual use parks to the extent possible, or co-location of community parks with fire stations to enhance public safety in the parks. The Circulation Master Plan includes Class I Bikeways, which 2022 DRAFT

are critical to improve access to the community’s parks.

Patterson Community Design Guidelines
These guidelines include discussion of development adjacent to or crossed by a creek or stream. The guidelines describe setbacks and treatments intended to protect these valuable community resources as natural, scenic and recreational amenities
Existing Park Plans
The City has prepared master plans for the Patterson Sports Complex and for the Patterson Community Complex, Aquatic Center, and Centennial Park. Portions of these master plans have been completed. As a result of the input obtained during this Parks and Recreation Master Plan process, some changes are proposed to the current plans for these two facilities.

Americans with Disabilities Act Updates
Regulations and requirements for compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) have recently been updated. Many of Patterson’s existing facilities do not meet the revised standards. This impacts what may be considered “usable” in our inventory of parks and facilities.

Parks and Recreation Administration
In 2012, the Parks and Recreation Department was restructured. The park maintenance function and corresponding staff were transferred to the Public Works Department, and recreation functions remained within the re-named Recreation and Community Services Department.

The Director and a staff consisting of one full-time Recreation Administrative Services Manager, three full time Recreation Supervisors, one full-time maintenance/facility supervisor, two full-time account clerks, one full-time administrative assistant, numerous part-time maintenance staff and many part-time recreation leaders comprise the existing Department. A Parks, Recreation & Beautification Commission of five members provide valuable citizen input to the department’s management. They will play an important role in assisting to define the department and providing input on policies and procedures.

Master plan goals provided by staff include:

• Incorporate sustainable development practices for parks and recreation • Define the role of recreation and community services in the quest for providing excellence in recreation services
• Create a sense of place and identity
Strengthening partnerships will be an important avenue in providing community recreation services now and in the future. This can be accomplished through focusing on community partnerships and co-sponsorships with providers, and providing space for self-directed programming. Development of policies and procedures to guide decisions and provide structure for the future will be important next steps.

City of Patterson Strategic Plan (2017-2021)
The five-year plan, prepared in late 2016, was collaboratively developed through a six-month process with City leadership, staff, city council members and public meetings. The plan provides overarching goals and strategic directions for the following four sectors:
• Community & economic development
• Community livability & quality of life
• Government programs & services
• Infrastructure & built environment
The plan is written more as a high-level framework document, identifying initial action items and performance measures within each category to gauge positive impact for the City. The goals in this plan should be considered in all planning efforts.

This chapter describes the inventory of parks, facilities and programs that exist in the City of Patterson as of 2021.

3.1 EXISTING PARKS
The City of Patterson currently has 34 parks, ranging in size from a fraction of an acre to 12 developed acres. Most of the existing parks are less than 4 acres, and serve their surrounding neighborhoods. Twenty parks serve a dual function as detention basins for stormwater, and thus have periods during the year when all or a portion of the park is unusable for recreation purposes. Overall, including community facility sites, detention basin parks and undeveloped park property, there are 98 acres of parks and facilities in Patterson.

This is approximately 4.6 acres per 1,000 residents. The following section describes each park, listing the location and size of each, its features and amenities, whether it is a detention basin, the source of its maintenance funding, and additional comments and observations. At this time, the detention basin areas of the existing parks do not meet current ADA accessibility standards due to the steepness of their side slopes. 2022 DRAFT

Aurora Park is a very small basin park. The turf area does not accommodate active sports. This park could be suitable for a dog park. It backs onto undeveloped agricultural land and the Patterson Irrigation District lateral, which may provide good trail access in the future.

The basin area, which comprises most of the park, is not considered accessible under current ADA regulations.

Blue Fiesta Park is a small but well-used park. The water spray play area - the only one in Patterson - is very popular among residents and day care providers. The water does not recirculate, and the surfacing will be replaced. Lighting in the park has reduced vandalism.

The park backs onto a West Stanislaus Irrigation District lateral and agricultural land, and could be expanded when the adjacent land is developed. The lateral could provide future trail access.

Basin: Yes
Maintenance: General Fund
Comments:

Garza Park is the largest city park besides the Patterson Sports Complex. It has recently been upgraded with a new playground (for ages 5-12), and parking lot lighting. It is still in need of additional redesign and renovation. Although it has the City’s only 90’ ballfield (other than at Patterson High School), the field is largely unusable. The field is within the detention basin, resulting in repeated damage to the infield. The basin area is not accessible under current ADA regulations.

Security is an issue at Garza Park. The only park lighting is the field lighting on wooden poles. The concession stand has been boarded up and should be removed. The concrete bleachers invite shattered glass.

The playground is not visible from the street.

OTHER PROVIDERS
The City of Patterson is deficient in many of the alternative leisure amenities found in cities of similar size and demographics. Not found in Patterson are leisure activities associated with:
• Movie Theater
• Bowling Alley
• Arcades
• Mall
• Chain, Sit-down Restaurants
• Amusement Center
• Climbing Gym
• Yoga Studios
The deficiency of entertainment amenities for the teen and young adults is substantial and places urgency on the Parks and Recreation Department and the School District to provide alternative leisure opportunities for this age group. With the influx of new residents arriving from urban settings, there are expectations for access to amenities they previously enjoyed. These deficiencies are especially felt by youth, who report that their social and leisure outlets are significantly lacking.

al needs. Master planning defines core services, creates standards, sets community priorities, and initiates an implementation strategy.

The City of Patterson has a small town character and a community that is sports oriented and culturally rich. The city desires thoughtful development in order to sustain their unique identity and a sense of place. The city is committed to providing high quality programs and the facilities required to support those programs. To meet this goal new facilities must be developed, and adequate funding is necessary to maintain facilities and enhance the users experience, ensure user safety, and maintain civic pride that is integrally associated with public parks and public places.

Cost Recovery
The impact of the economic downturn on local budgets nationally has made it increasingly important for parks and recreation departments to incorporate a more business like model of operation. The dilemma of subsidy vs. pay for play has become an increasing factor in the decision-making realm of city budgets. Patterson’s Recreation and Community Services Department budget subsidizes programs and facility operations in order to serve the community; however funding for the department is not sufficient to sustain this policy.

It is necessary for the department and the city to establish priorities in service and cost recovery and to build in sufficient fees to support service delivery. A priority system for programs and services are recommended to meet community desires and cost recovery expectations for facilities and programs established.

Program Needs
Recreation programming is limited in the City of Patterson due to the limited availability of facilities in the community. The senior center and aquatics center provide an initial level of service to the community. The department is re-defining the provision of recreational opportunities by promoting self-directed programming and spaces that encourage self-participation.

Programming challenges:
• Limited availability of private sector leisure and social activities for pre-teen and teens within city limits places a greater demand on the Recreation and Community Services Department
• Communication and outreach to parents who speak and read only 2022 DRAFT

Spanish
• The lack of public transportation providing access to facilities • Long work and commute hours for residents/parents limits access for youth
There is significant unmet need as a result of limited access to indoor programming space:
• Dance, yoga, aerobics, group exercise
• Sport courts for basketball and volleyball
• Banquet space
• Meeting space
• Martial arts, dance, music, arts, photography
• Cultural programming
• Performing arts
• Community special events
The City of Patterson is predominately Hispanic, a population that has identifiable recreational characteristics, cultural traditions, and strong family bonds. Recreational preferences typically include casual, informal gathering of family and friends “spending time together.” It is important for the Recreation and Community Services Department to recognize these cultural influences and incorporate them into their space planning and programming. Marketing in Spanish to adequately reach this significant community subset is important. Hispanic community leaders and church connections are very influential with this community. According to a study by the UCLA Anderson School of Management, Applied Management Research Program, The Hispanic Community and Outdoor Recreation (2006), three most valued and influential aspects of Hispanic culture are family, community, and personalization. Hispanics are as interested in participating in sports and other physical activities for health reasons as they are for social reasons. The master plan must account for a broad range of potential pursuits including active and passive recreation and sports.

Fees
The City of Patterson aspires to ensure sufficient cost recovery through fees for programs and facilities to increase sustainability. The City has been able to provide its citizens highly subsidized programs and facilities.

There are programs upon which high community benefit value is placed and the City may place a low requirement for cost recovery and 2022 DRAFT

agree to subsize the programs. Following are programs the Parks and Recreation Department currently places in that category:
• Aquatics Center is a community priority and subsidized • Youth development programs, activities and classes are highly subsidized • Senior activities and Center are subsidized with rentals providing minimal cost recovery
Cost-recovery through added or increased fees is an area that requires policy direction, as decisions to allocate tax dollars to provide the most benefit to the community. A plan and system in place, which prioritizes programs and facilities, will assist in the annual budget allocation.

With the future funding and development of new facilities, consideration and planning will be critical to optimizing cost recovery potential. Revenue opportunities include:
• Special events
• Increased class cost recovery
• Rental fees of new public spaces
• Increased program offerings with introduction of each new public space
• Leagues and tournaments
• Theater and beverage sales
Partners
Partners have been a viable means of providing services with the utilization of shared resources. The Patterson Joint Unified School District has been a partner in the past, however with limited financial resources this partnership has become less viable. Exploring further partnerships should be developed to stretch limited resources and combine efforts.

4 NEEDS ASSESSMENT
This Master Plan has been developed with significant input and participation from City Staff as well as from engaged and informed community members. Community input was elicited through a Steering Committee which met regularly to help guide the process; two community workshops; focus groups and stakeholder interviews, (3) pop-up events, and (1) online community survey. The community’s recreational needs were assessed based on this input as well as on a variety of research methods, including: (1) demographic analysis, (2) identification of recreation trends, (3) benchmark analysis, (4) data collection to identify and quantify current demand, (5) inventory and assessment of current programs and facilities, (6) identification of deficiencies, and (7) projections of demand and the facilities needed to serve that demand over the next ten years, and to build-out.

Demographic analysis assists in identifying important characteristics of the population. Age, income, race and ethnicity, education, and other factors can be used to estimate current and future demand for specific types of programs and uses. The trends analysis included identification of the impact of national and state trends on recreation participation, planning of new facilities, and the operations. Benchmarking is used to aid in establishing service and facility standards and goals. Benchmarking serves as a ‘barometer’ to show how a city compares to a peer community or communities. Because it is a comparable community in terms of size, population, and economic condition, the City identified Riverbank, California as a peer community.

Recreation services for all public and private service providers within the City were inventoried and analyzed to assess capacity of market to serve the needs and interests of residents. A thorough review of information developed by the City, including reports, plans, drawings, program offerings, and operating budget was completed. The team interviewed Staff, conducted on-site tours of public facilities and conducted in-person and telephone interviews of selected community members and stakeholders. Information was presented at Steering Committee meetings and community workshops. Information gathered in these meetings was incorporated into the Master Plan.

4.1 COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION
The Parks and Recreation Master Plan Steering Committee met regularly to provide input and to guide the planning process. The Steering Committee is composed of community members with a wide range of interests and perspectives on Parks and Recreation (sports, seniors, performing arts, natural environment). Two Community Workshops, attended by over 100 community members, were held to gain broader input. Additionally, a focus group comprised of sports representatives provided direction and information regarding the needs of Patterson’s large and active field sports community. Representatives from the Patterson Joint Unified School District attended and participated in all of the meetings and workshops. (Meeting materials and notes are provided in Appendix A.)

Steering Committee Meeting #1
At its first meeting in April 2012, the Steering Committee discussed expectations for the Master Plan process, what is working well with Patterson’s existing parks and recreation system, what unmet needs currently exist, and what opportunities exist for the future. The Committee supported:
• “Park-centric” planning,
• Collaboration with the schools and sports leagues,
• Parks that are designed to be large, multi-generational facilities, • Expressing themes related to Patterson’s history and identity, • Preserving natural habitats, and
• Supporting Patterson’s economic development and its potential as a destination.

The Committee pointed out many of the positive aspects about the current park system, including the skate park, the sports complex, the Salado Creek trail, dog park, active sports groups and volunteers, and the senior and aquatics centers. Some of the initially identified needs included better bike and pedestrian connections to parks, natural open space parks, an outdoor performance venue, more dog parks and community gardens, and rest rooms, storage and concessions. The Committee also identified additional stakeholders to involve in the planning process, and methods for reaching out to the broader community.

Community Workshop #1
The first Community Workshop, in April 2012, was attended by more than 80 community members, including a large number of youth.

Meeting materials and the presentation were provided in English and Spanish. Major themes that arose from the group discussion included the need for:
• more game and practice fields for soccer and baseball • lighted sports fields to extend available playing time • dedicated fields (which are not compromised by being located in detention basins or overlaid with other uses)
• amenities such as rest rooms and drinking fountains, and • parks on the east side of town.

When participants were asked to indicate their priorities for Patterson’s parks, a number of trends emerged:

Field Sports
• Soccer was most popular

• Competition for field time makes joint use with other sports groups challenging
Other Sports & Activities
• Aquatics and volleyball were most popular
• Water play (spray park) was very popular
Community Facilities
• Martial arts, dance and music were most popular
• There were many suggestions for facilities, including bowling alley, zoo, movie theater, and more
Enjoying Nature
• Biking, fishing & creek interface were most popular
• Need to protect habitat and natural character of Del Puerto Canyon Special Uses
• Dog park was most popular
• Farmers’ market and community gardens were desired uses • Bocce and exercise stations were also mentioned
Steering Committee Meeting #2
At its May 2012 meeting, the Steering Committee reviewed the results of the Community Workshop, focusing on sports needs, the desired character for a theater /performance space, as well as potential partnerships, and joint use. There is an immediate need for more sports fields for soccer, football, and baseball, as well as for full-court, lighted basketball courts.

Sports Focus Group Meeting
In June 2012, a Sports Focus Group met to discuss specific immediate sports field needs as well as considerations in planning for the future needs of a growing population. Preferences regarding locations, configurations, and conditions were discussed as well. Generally, soccer stakeholders prefer multiple fields in one location for tournament play, football stakeholders prefer fields in several locations due to practice schedule conflicts, and baseball stakeholders prefer pinwheel groupings of ballfields distributed throughout Patterson. Strategies for filling the current needs included expanding school partnerships and creating a Sports Alliance to manage scheduling conflicts.

Steering Committee Meeting #3
The June 2012 meeting of the Steering Committee focused on community-wide parks and facilities. To serve the future population, additional community center facilities and gathering spaces will be needed, and aquatics will need to be expanded. There is currently unmet demand for more aquatics. Uses appropriate for community parks were discussed at length. Distribution and co-locations of uses was discussed, as well as special uses such as equestrian facilities and fishing. A black box theater could serve both the High School and community users, and could provide cost recovery. Making parks identifiable by including special gardens and/or art was supported.

Community Workshop #2
The second Community Workshop, in June 2012 presented the vision and concepts for neighborhood and community parks and facilities in Patterson. The concepts and vision developed by the Steering Committee were generally well received.

Steering Committee Meeting #4
At the final Steering Committee meeting in October 2012, the Committee reviewed the draft document.

The Parks and Recreation Master Plan was put on hold shortly after the draft document was reviewed in late 2012. In 2021, the City restarted Master Plan efforts by reaching out to the community to consider changes in public opinion on Patterson’s current park and recreation offering, and desired changes and improvements for the future.

Pop-Up at Back-to-School Block Party and other City Events The City of Patterson hosts a Back-to-School Block Party and Safety Fair in mid-August, which is highly attended. Multiple city departments, school, and organizations participate, including the Parks and Recreation Master Plan Team at the 2021 event. Residents were asked what they like about the existing parks, and what they would like to see in future parks, the planned recreation center, and planned expansion to the aquatics complex.

Additionally, the Parks and Recreation Master Plan engaged with the community at a BBQ put on by the Sheriff’s Department, and the Halloween floating pumpkin patch event at the Aquatics Center. 2022 DRAFT

Online Survey
An online survey was open for public responses from August to October 2021. Over 170 people responded, sharing their insight and experiences with existing parks in Patterson, what they like and use, and what they’d like to see in the future parks and recreation system.

The survey and responses are included in the Appendix.

4.2 BENCHMARKING
Benchmarking is a tool that can be used to aid in establishing service levels and facility standards. Benchmarking compares the city’s existing facilities and services to those offered by peer communities.

Staff considered the cities of Modesto, Turlock, and Riverbank for a benchmarking study. The City of Modesto was excluded because of it large population (202,751) and Turlock because its higher per capita and family household income when compared to the City of Patterson.

City of Riverbank is similar to the City of Patterson in many respects:

Patterson Riverbank
Total Population 22,066 24,482
Median Household Income $69,233 $70,549
Per Capita Income $23,347 $25,776
Median Age 31.1 years 32.6 years
% Growth 2000-2010 / 2010-2019 75.9% / 16.5% 4.3%/ 9.7% (Source: 2019 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates) The benchmarking study shows that the City of Riverbank has more public facilities and offers greater leisure opportunities to its citizens when compared to the City of Patterson. This may be attributable to the efforts of the Riverbank Redevelopment Agency. The City of Riverbank has a dedicated teen center, community center, and an additional facility, Scout Hall, that provides space for expanded community programming. In addition, Riverbank has non-city entities providing a movie theater and bowling.

The benchmark study found that the City of Riverbank appears to have the community facilities that the City of Patterson is lacking, specifically a community center. A community center supports the programming desired by the residents and provides large indoor gathering space for community events. A review of the program offerings for each city demonstrates a sharp contrast in the quantity of programs 2022 DRAFT

and activities available to the community. The City of Riverbank is able to provide considerably more due to its greater inventory of community facilities. The City of Patterson by comparison, lacks a permanent teen space, a dedicated community gymnasium, and outdoor plaza space that can be used for performance or social and cultural events. Both cities have an outdoor sports complex, skateboard park, and aquatics facilities. The detailed comparison can be found in Appendix B.

4.3 COMMUNITY ACCESS STUDY
During 2011 and 2012, for her Masters Project at Humboldt State University, Leanne Lynch, a former Patterson resident, compiled and analyzed data about barriers to access to parks in Patterson. The information was drawn from online sources, personal observation, and participatory surveys of Patterson adults and children.

The project first assessed park access based on distance. Residents who were within 1/4 mile of a park, with the route to the park unimpeded by barriers were considered to have high access to parks. The population under age 18 having low access to parks was estimated at 6,800, predominantly in the eastern portion of the City. The map at the right depicts high access to parks in blue, and low access to parks in orange, in the population under age 18. The project next assessed reported criminal activity at or near parks, to test the assumption that people’s perceptions of crime and safety issues may also be barriers to access.

To examine whether community members consider distance and/or perceptions about crime as barriers to park use in Patterson, Ms. Lynch conducted surveys at Patterson’s Earth Day event, the Apricot Fiesta, through after school programs, and at a local business. 13 children aged 10 and 11, and 30 adults responded to the surveys. The surveys revealed useful information about how residents use the parks, as well as identifying barriers to park use. To a large degree, responses from children and adults reflected similar patterns. The report, “Access to Recreational Open Space in Patterson, CA” is included as Appendix C.

Among the findings:
• Less than half of the respondents travel to parks by car • Active sports were mentioned most often as what attracted respondents to the parks (either as participants or bringing their children) 2022 DRAFT

• Adults and children use the parks for informal socializing with friends and family, play and relaxation
• Activities with dogs are a common draw
• Safety concerns were sited by both children and adults as barriers to park use (including gangs, alcohol use, graffiti, etc.) • Distance and other physical access issues (lack of bike lanes or sidewalks, bad roads) were barriers for a number of respondents • Lack of shade was identified a number of times as a barrier to park use
• Lack of amenities was noted by a number of respondents • Many respondents advocated for more community involvement, programmed events, neighborhood participation, more green (landscaping & trees) and improved access and safety measures.

4.4 CURRENT NEEDS AND DEFICIENCIES
The needs assessment has identified a number of needs and deficiencies in the existing park system. Some of these may be remedied in the near term, and others inform the design and planning of future parks.

Community Parks
• All but 2 of Patterson’s parks are under 5 acres. The City lacks large parks that can accommodate multiple user groups and large events.

Access
• Much of the east side of Patterson lacks access to parks. Safe and direct pedestrian and bicycle access to parks in general should be improved.
• At the same time as the 2021/2022 update to the 2012 draft Master Plan, the City was concurrently creating the Active Transportation Plan (ATP).

Safety
• Safety concerns deter residents from using some of Patterson’s parks. In some cases, park redesign or additional programming could improve this situation.

Field Sports
• Patterson lacks competition and practice fields for soccer, baseball and football. The sports uses are often overlaid on multi-use turf, and scheduling conflicts are challenging. Sports are played on fields that lack parking, lighting or rest rooms. Most practice fields are also detention basins, which limits their use during the wet season.

Currently, the detention basin fields do not meet ADA accessibility requirements.

Soccer
• The one existing competition soccer field is inadequate for the high participation in organized soccer programs. Of the 18 parks with lawn area large enough for practice soccer, 14 are detention basins.

The large Keystone Basin is used for soccer and football, but lacks parking, lighting, or rest rooms. Court soccer is also becoming popular, and an indoor facility would be well used.

Football
• Patterson’s youth football teams compete for field space during the season. Additional lighted fields are needed.

Baseball
• Baseball and softball are popular in Patterson. The regular season is February through July, but there are tournaments year round.

There is only one City-owned 90’ diamond, in Garza Park, but it is located in a detention basin and the infield is damaged by flooding on a regular basis. When the Sports Complex is built out, there will be tournament capability.

Court Sports
• There is a lack of tennis courts and full-court basketball for league use. Many of the existing 1/2 basketball courts are undersized.

Amenities and Equipment
• Many of Patterson’s existing parks lack amenities such as shade, drinking fountains, or programmed space.

Special Uses
• There is demand for additional dog parks, teen space, and specialized uses such as access to wifi.

Natural Open Space
• There are sites within the planning area that could provide habitat and a place to experience relaxation and play in a natural setting, such as the San Joaquin River and Del Puerto Creek corridors. • During the COVID-19 pandemic, access to nature was a resource many in the community turned to for respite and relaxation. Increasing interest in these spaces has occurred during the pandemic.

Aquatics
• During the 2021 outreach efforts, there was an emphasis on adding water play amenities to both the Aquatics Center and within parks. 2022 DRAFT

5. RECOMMENDATIONS
The Patterson General Plan sets out a goal of providing 5 acres of parkland per 1,000 residents of Patterson.

In order to develop an integrated park and recreation system that is tailored to the needs and priorities of the Patterson community as it grows over time, a more comprehensive set of goals, standards and recommendations for the parks and facilities must be in place. This chapter establishes goals and standards for quantifiable elements of the parks and recreation system. It also includes recommendations and criteria for development of future parks, facilities and program elements.

5.1 PARK TYPES
An integrated park system provides a range of recreational opportunities, from casual relaxation to organized sports activities and civic gatherings. To achieve this, the City must plan its parks within an overall framework of including neighborhood parks that primarily serve their surrounding residents, and community parks and facilities that serve the community as a whole.

Neighborhood Parks
Neighborhood parks provide easily accessible open space for local residents. Neighborhood parks typically offer a range of active and passive activities, and are reachable by walking or biking without crossing major streets. A neighborhood park should include small and large places to gather as well as places for individual relaxation. It should provide areas for active recreation, such as multi-use turf, practice sports fields, or court sports. It should also include elements for all ages, such as playgrounds for tots, and walking paths and benches for seniors. This type of park is the focal point and social center of its neighborhood. To accommodate the its appropriate uses, a neighborhood park should be a minimum of 3 acres in size.

Community Parks
Community parks provide features and activities that attract people from throughout the community. A community park is typically large enough to contain elements such as competition sports fields, aquatics, or a community center. It may accommodate large gatherings or events. A community park may also be a park with special use or character, such as a natural area, an equestrian center, an amphitheater for performances, or a civic park with facilities for formal events. With the exception of some special use parks, a community park should be a minimum of 20 acres in size.

Standards and recommendations for neighborhood parks, community parks and community facilities follow in this chapter. Design guidelines for these parks are contained in Chapter 6.

5.2 PARK ACREAGE AND SERVICE AREA STANDARDS
The General Plan’s stated goal of 5 acres per 1,000 residents should allow for sufficient land to create a variety of parks that meet the recreational needs of the community. Patterson currently has 98 acres of parks and community facilities, or approximately 4.6 acres per 1,000 residents. This acreage, however, includes undeveloped park property and parks that also serve as detention basins, with limited usability during wet periods. Only two of the 34 existing parks are larger than 5 acres. More park acreage is needed in order to create an integrated park system with a variety of parks and facilities to serve Patterson’s existing population, and acreage will need to increase as the population grows.

Recommendation:

Provide 5 developed and usable acres of parkland per 1,000 residents.

To meet this standard at Patterson’s current population, the City should acquire a minimum of 22 additional acres of parkland, and improve the undeveloped acreage that it currently owns.

STANDARD - 5 ACRES PER 1,000 RESIDENTS
Date Population Park Standard
(Acres)
Acres
Needed
2012 21,000 105 7
2022 23,000 120 22
Build-Out 66,000 330 232
(The current 98 acres includes undeveloped acres at the Sports Park, and includes the Community Center Complex property. It does not include school property.)
Future parkland that is acquired by the City should be usable yearround to be given full acreage credit. If the park acreage includes a detention basin, credit shall be apportioned according to the estimated usable time for the detention basin portion of the acreage, provided that it is accessible under ADA.

In order to create an integrated and balanced system, parkland dedication should include land for both community and neighborhood parks.

Currently, most residents in Patterson’s newer neighborhoods have access to an existing neighborhood park, although many of the parks are of insufficient size to be classified as a “neighborhood park.” As can be seen on the following map, many parts of Patterson’s older neighborhoods, especially east of Ward Avenue, lack convenient access to a neighborhood park.

Recommendation:

Every Patterson resident should be within a ¼ to ½-mile barrier-free walk of a neighborhood park.

A community park serves a broader segment of the community and is more of a “destination.” As they are developed, community parks should be distributed to provide equitable access to all parts of the Patterson community.

Recommendation:

A community park should be located within 1 to 2 miles of every resident.

Looking at projections for Patterson’s future population growth, the recommended standards will result in a network of new neighborhood parks averaging 4 acres in size, distributed throughout the future growth areas. Parkland dedicated pursuant to these standards will also allow for creation of new community parks distributed equitably through Patterson, including natural area parks and special interest parks. The following map illustrates distribution of future parks based on projected population.

5.3 SPORTS FIELD STANDARDS
Sports fields require the most dedicated acreage within the park system. Patterson has a vibrant and active sports community, with high rates of participation. Given the level of participation in field sports, and the fact that field sports facilities have the most defined space requirements, planning for sports fields is a high priority in this Master Plan. Patterson currently lacks adequate competition facilities, and overuse contributes to deteriorating conditions of the existing fields.

The sports field standards in this Master Plan distinguish between diamond fields (adult and youth baseball and softball) and rectangle fields (soccer, football, lacrosse, etc.), as well as between “game fields” and “practice fields.” The following table illustrates standards for sports fields in a number of Northern California communities, although the definition of what is counted may vary between cities.

Examples Diamond Fields Rectangle Fields
Pleasanton (incl. PUSD) 1:3,500 1:2,400
Livermore 1:2,000 1:2,000
Dublin 1:3,300 1:2,000
San Ramon 1:4,500 1:2,000
Tracy 1:2,300 1:5,000
Oakley 1:2,000 1:5,000
Salinas 1:2,500 1:2,000
Richmond 1:4,000 1:3,000
Cordova 1:2,600 1:2,100
Alameda 1:2,600 1:3,000
Table 5-3: Comparative Field Standards (2012)
Rectangle Fields
Rectangle fields are used for soccer, football, lacrosse and rugby. In Patterson, soccer and football are popular and both compete for playing space. There is a need for both practice fields and competition (“game”) fields. Currently, there is one competition field at the T.W.

Patterson Sports Complex to serve the entire City. There is some use of school facilities, but scheduling is difficult because school teams have priority over other groups. There are also 18 multi-use lawns that are suitable for practice, although 14 are located in detention basins and do not meet current ADA standards.

The dimensional standards for soccer fields vary somewhat, but in determining what should be counted as a rectangular field for the

RATIOS FOR SPORTS FIELD

STANDARDS
Sports field standards are expressed in terms of the number of residents that generate the
need for one field. These are the
ratios shown in the tables in this
sub-chapter.

As an example, “1:2,500” indicates that one field is needed for every 2,500 residents.

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN

Multi-field space for tournaments
purposes of meeting these standards, a “game field” is a minimum of 75 yards wide and 120 yards long, which accommodates competition soccer for ages 14 through adult as well as high-school age and adult football. Some fields of 60 yards by 100 yards (which accommodates U-14 soccer competition) may be allowed. Practice fields are a minimum of 1-acre of rectangular playable surface area.

The preferred configuration for soccer game fields is to locate multiple fields in one complex. Typically, multiple games are played simultaneously, with games scheduled throughout the day. Having fields in the same location makes it much easier for families with children playing in different age groups at the same time, and makes tournaments possible. Tournament and parking fees can also provide cost recovery.

Recommendation:

Provide 1 rectangle field per 2,500 residents, of which one half (1 per 5,000 residents) must be game fields.

RECTANGLE FIELD STANDARDS
All Fields Game Fields
Existing City Fields* 1:4,200 1:21,000
Recommended Standard 1:2,500 1:5,000
*This excludes the practice fields that are not ADA compliant. Providing ADA accessible paths to existing park basins could make 14 additional practice fields available. 2012 quantities.

By the recommended standard, the existing deficit if ADA access is provided to existing detention basin fields, is three game fields.

Diamond Fields
Diamond fields are used for adult and youth baseball and softball.

Currently, the City has two 60’ diamond game fields at the Patterson Sports Complex. The 90’ field at Garza Park, located in a basin, is not counted as it is not suitable for youth baseball, and the field is rendered unusable after the basin has been flooded. There are three practice fields, consisting of backstops at three neighborhood park multi-use lawns (at Aprigold, Floragold and Meadow Rue Parks).

Practice and game fields are needed
To accommodate adult and youth baseball and softball, both skinned and turf infields, and 60’ and 90’ diamonds are needed. The preferred configuration is a “pinwheel” of four fields, which may be of different dimensions.

Recommendation:

Provide 1 diamond field per 2,500 residents, of which one half (1 per 5,000 residents) must be game fields.

DIAMOND FIELD STANDARDS
All Fields Game Fields
Existing City Fields* 1:6,000 1:10,500

Table 5-5: Diamond Field Standards
By the recommended standard, if ADA access is provided to existing detention basin fields, there is a current deficit of two diamond game fields. The Patterson Joint Unified School District will be constructing a 4-diamond complex, which will help to fulfill present and future needs if a joint use agreement can be negotiated.

HOW MANY GAME FIELDS SHOULD WE HAVE?

Build-Out 66,000 13 13
Table 5-6: Game Field Standards
Parkland Distribution
While practice fields may be located in neighborhood parks, both rectangle and diamond game fields should be located in community parks.

Community parks must be designed to accommodate the acreage needed for the fields and their associated uses, such as parking, concessions, restrooms and storage areas, spectator areas, etc. The following table illustrates the approximate acreage needed to accommodate Patterson’s sports needs within the city park system. Although Patterson’s overall existing park acreage is close to the General Plan goal of 5 acres per 1,000 residents, as shown on this table, the City is deficient in community parks which can accommodate game fields.

The Tournament Soccer Complex is planned at the 40-acre detention basin being constructed by Villages at Patterson. For each of these parks, the plan drawings are for illustrative purposes only, since the needs will evolve as the population changes and the park system evolves.

SOCCER COMPLEX AND EAST COMMUNITY PARK
At Patterson’s projected build-out population of 66,000, there will be a need for 13 rectangle competition fields.

A complex that could accommodate regional soccer/football tournaments would provide not only recreation for Patterson’s youth and adults, but would also generate significant economic activity for the City of Patterson. Tournament facilities bring recognition to their communities, and can draw 1,000’s of visitors to the city on a tournament day/weekend. Soccer tournaments draw participants from the entire region, and potentially from the entire state. Players often have more than one game, meaning that the families patronize the local businesses to purchase meals and snacks, and perhaps stay in local hotels. The youth football community hosts three tournaments each year (play-offs, Super bowl and all-stars). Currently, the economic activity

and taxes generated from soccer/football tournament use are going to Turlock, Ceres, Morgan Hill, Dublin, Mariposa, Ripon and other towns with tournament facilities. On tournament weekends, teams, families and fans from throughout the region patronize local lodgings and restaurants from Friday through Sunday.

Many of Patterson’s youth participate in recreational and competition soccer, and the number is expanding. The city owns only one soccer field suitable for competition, and has no tournament facility at all.

Soccer practice could still occur in neighborhood parks and at the Patterson Sports Complex on Ward Avenue, but the Sports Complex is also needed for Patterson’s ever growing baseball and softball program, which served approximately 450 youth participants in 2012. The Patterson Sports Complex is currently beyond capacity for field use due to all the competing demands.

SOCCER COMPLEX / DETENTION BASIN
With development of The Villages at Patterson, a 40-acre City-owned site at the northeast corner of Olive and Sycamore Avenues will be developed as joint use detention basin and soccer complex. The basin functions will be completed in the first phase of this project, and the soccer fields and amenities are planned to be constructed in a later phase.

The illustrative plan that follows shows 6 adult full-sized soccer fields and 8 youth fields, along with parking and picnic areas. Soccer fields would be within the detention basin. In a storm event, the basin will hold stormwater, and will be designed to drain within 48 hours. Valley gutters would be needed to facilitate stormwater drainage around the fields. The amenities that could be located at field level would be limited. Picnic, parking and structures such as restrooms and concessions would need to be located out of detention area. Permanent bleachers or football goal posts would not be suitable. An ADA accessible path will need to be provided to the field level.

EAST COMMUNITY PARK
Future purchase of additional adjacent or nearby land would allow for expansion to accommodate additional soccer fields, and/or football fields with bleachers and goalposts. Above the basin floor, synthetic turf could extend the time that the fields are playable. Such an expansion beyond the detention basin could serve as the community park for current and future residents of the eastern side of Patterson. It would allow for additional concessions/restrooms, parking, maintenance storage facilities, and supporting amenities for the soccer complex.

The eastern side of town currently lacks adequate parks, and residents must cross Highway 33 and the railroad tracks to access other community facilities. In order to achieve a more equitable distribution of park features and facilities, the East Community Park should contain

facilities such as a second community center or multi-use building, a water feature, and sports courts and fields. There are several potential locations for the East Community Park. If located adjacent to the soccer complex/detention basin, it would form an integrated soccer complex with complementary amenities. If located adjacent to the future fire station planned for the area near Walnut Avenue and Sycamore Avenue, an official presence would increase security at the park. This could also allow for co-location with Walnut Grove Middle School, to take advantage of joint use of facilities. (There is currently joint ownership of the community gymnasium located at the school. Through a use agreement, the City maintains use of the gym during evening and weekend hours). There is also the potential for co-location with a detention basin, with tiered design to allow for usable park space.

Illustrative East Community Park Uses recommended for East Community Park include:
• Diamond fields
• Soccer/football fields
• Community center
• Water feature
• Indoor courts or outdoor lighted courts
• Skate / BMX area
• Concessions
• Restrooms
• Group picnic

Natural Parks and Trails locations

NATURAL PARKS AND TRAILS
As Patterson becomes more urban, access to natural areas and habitat, and to the open space experience, become more valuable. Nature parks connect people with their surroundings. They are places of exploration and discovery of the natural world. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people turned to their local parks and natural open spaces as a respite.

The Del Puerto Creek Corridor is a central element of Patterson’s natural history and identity. It can be preserved and enhanced to improve habitat value as well as stormwater management, and become an integral part of Patterson’s trail network. The water district’s proposed dam project west of Interstate 5 may result in a mitigation requirement to maintain continual water release into Del Puerto Creek, thus recreating a riparian corridor. A multi-use trail along this corridor would provide recreational and educational value, as well as a non motorized Educational opportunities

connectivity. The soils along the Del Puerto Creek corridor provide moderate infiltration, aiding in groundwater recharge if allowed to remain pervious. This makes it an ideal location for a natural open space with an expansive trail network.

The western portion of the Del Puerto Creek Corridor passes through areas of historic as well as natural significance, and could support an equestrian staging area. The topography and surroundings in this area also make it an ideal location for an outdoor performance venue.

Lights, noise and traffic would not impact residential areas, and vehicular access would be convenient.

Although the San Joaquin River is outside of Patterson’s City Limits and the General Plan Study Area, portions of the adjacent land are owned by the City, and a riverfront trail with water access could be accomplished as a joint project with the County.

Both of these corridors will form important parts of an overall trail system providing walking, jogging and cycling alternatives to Patterson’s streets. The major canals and Patterson’s irrigation laterals provide opportunities for expansion of the recreational trail system.

As development occurs along these corridors, care must be taken to maintain good visual access to these off-road trails.

Features appropriate to Patterson’s Natural Parks include:
• Trails
• Picnic areas
• Water access
• Interpretive displays
• Habitat protection areas
• Amphitheater
• Parking
• Equestrian staging area

CENTENNIAL PARK AND COMMUNITY CENTER

COMPLEX
Centennial Park and Patterson’s Community Center Complex will provide community serving facilities, outdoor recreation, and community gathering spaces. Patterson’s civic core is expanding eastward, anchored by the historic town center on the east and the Community Center Complex and schools at the western end of West Las Palmas Avenue. Centennial Park, between Patterson High School and the Community Center will further activate the area with complimentary uses. An integrated Master Plan for the expansion of the Community Center Complex and Aquatic Center, and creation of the new Centennial Park was created in 2019. The plan includes a Community Recreation Center with a gym, workout room, dance studio, teen center, and recreation department offices. The expanded aquatics center will better serve a range of users by adding a splash pad, exercise pool, wading pool, and picnic area. Other outdoor additions include bocce courts and an outdoor patio. The Master Plan develops Centennial Park with active and passive outdoor uses including a playground, tennis, bas7.3.b Packet Pg. 208 Attachment: Patterson Parks Master Plan_FinalDraft2022 - Compressed File (Parks and Recreation Master Plan) 102 CITY OF PATTERSON

An additional community center with an auditorium, event space and meeting rooms will complement the recreation center across the way. The 2,600 square foot theater could be used by the High School as well as by Patterson Repertory Theater or other civic groups. Shared parking could relieve the current shortage at the High School, and be available for recreational users during non-school periods. The 2.5 acre detention basin proposed for this location can be sensitively designed and tiered for ADA accessibility, and is incorporated into the design as informal lawn.

It is recommended that the Master Plan for the Community Center Complex, Aquatic Center and Centennial Park be implemented as funding becomes available.

HISTORIC CIVIC PARKS
Patterson’s town center, with its museum and historic parks is a meaningful part of Patterson’s identity. North Park and South Park (Veteran’s Memorial Park) have been the visual focal points of the historic core, and the location for Patterson’s traditional Apricot Fiesta and other events. Their historic character should be preserved and enhanced. Renovations should incorporate historic plans and a unified palette of site furnishings and paving treatments. The heritage trees are a significant visual icon for the City and should be preserved.

Renovation of the historic civic parks will contribute to the revitalization of Patterson’s downtown.

5.5 COMMUNITY FACILITY STANDARDS
There are no recognized national or state standards in regards to public facilities. The National Park and Recreation Association (NRPA) aggregates self-reported recreation and park service levels from jurisdiction across the nation for departments to follow. To tailor these service levels to Patterson, the following factors should be taken into consideration:
• Population
• Demographics
• Desired service levels
• Benchmarks
The Sports Management Group applied the NRPA guidelines, factors listed above, and community research to establish the recommended build-out master plan for the City of Patterson. The City of Patterson estimated population of 66,000 at build-out.

The typical public facilities in a community of a build-out of 66,000 population would include:
• Community Center
• Senior Center
• Teen Center
• Gymnasium/indoor courts
• Aquatic Center
• Community Arts Center
These facilities could be provided by the City, or in partnership with the Patterson Unified School District or non-profit organizations such as the Boys and Girls Club.

Near Term Priorities
The City of Patterson completed a community center and library master plan in December 2006 and has built several phases of the master plan, specifically the senior center, aquatics center (Phase 1) and skateboard park as well as infrastructure. Based on this investment, the completion of the plan is a priority. Completion of the aquatics center has been identified as a high priority. Completion of the community center building, with teen amenities component is a priority based on the need and desire of the City to have a permanent location for a teen

center. The existing, temporary location of the teen center across the street from this site provides an easy transition into this location and maintains the integrity of the plan to consolidate teen activities with the skateboard park and resources. Completion of the Community Center would also provide a permanent location for Community Recreation Registrations.

Existing deficiencies based on current population include:
• Teen Center - the existing center is insufficient to serve the current demand and the City is actively engaged in efforts to develop a new permanent facility.
• Completion of the Community Center Master Plan

County Library
Aquatics Center

5.6 FACILITIES AT BUILD-OUT

COMMUNITY CENTER
At build-out there will be a need for a second large Community Center of approximately 40,000 – 50,000 square feet to support a population of 66,000 residents.
• 5-7 acres of land - locate at community park
• Indoor gathering space - stage, seating for 300
• Full commercial kitchen
• Meeting/classrooms
• Conference room
• Dance/exercise room
• Birthday party room
• Children’s room
• Covered outdoor space for 50-75
• Gymnasium
• Restrooms with building will serve dual purpose for parks • Parking for a minimum of 225 cars

AQUATICS
Aquatic amenities ranked as one of the highest desired from the community. Public access for teaching, competitive/team sports and recreational swim remains in high demand. At build-out there will be a deficiency of 2 to 3 pools to achieve the NRPA recommended standard of water surface area per resident. Completion of the aquatic center

master plan provides for more recreational water. This will increase the opportunities for youth and families to engage in aquatics and will help to generate greater use and revenues to help offset operating costs. The recommended aquatic build-out for Patterson by NRPA guidelines is a minimum of 27,000 square feet of surface water. The current Aquatic Center has less than 6,000 s.f. Given these factors, Patterson’s future aquatics should include three additional pools to obtain 20,000+ s.f. of surface water.
• Phased plans for the current aquatics center should be completed, to provide program and operational enhancements and to contribute to the vision of an active teen and youth location. • There should be two pools in addition to the pool that will complete the Aquatics Center Master Plan. Aquatic facilities should be distributed so there is convenient access for residents. • Each site should have a different focus and character. Appropriate facilities include a 25 meter pool and a recreation pool with play/ slide features.
• Water spraygrounds should be included as aquatic features in at least two or three community parks distributed throughout the community. This amenity was ranked as very highly desirable by the community.

GYMNASIUM
The City of Patterson currently shares the indoor gymnasium space with the school district and has limited accessibility. At build-out there will be a need for three dedicated indoor sport courts, dedicated to community use to achieve a recommend planning standard of one court per 20,000 residents.
• Courts should be multi-purpose for indoor play
- Development of one court with a multi-purpose flooring material will provide facilities for indoor soccer, and also provides large indoor assembly space
- Courts may be built together as a sports venue; however, this model presents a significant building cost. To help offset future costs, features to consider for program viability might include tournament features, and exercise and/or fitness amenities • Courts may also be added to community recreation centers • Two or three courts could be added to a community center to provide synergies with programming and amenities, and create cost savings in infrastructure and operations

THEATER SPACE
At build-out population there will be a need for performing arts facilities for community programming and performance. The community presented a desire to have a community theater space that was flexible and with non-fixed seating for 100.
• Community playhouse such as a black box theater
• Located in Centennial Park, in proximity to high school for operation under a joint use agreement • Consider a non-profit partner to operate

COMMUNITY GATHERING SPACES
Community input displayed a strong desire for large gathering spaces, which may be used for outdoor performances and rental purposes. • Outdoor amphitheater
• Reservable picnic areas
• Consider a destination spot
• Amenities: restrooms, electricity, lights

MULTI-PURPOSE SPACE
To further encourage park use and the concept of providing spaces for community, it is recommended to distribute small recreation buildings in community parks throughout the city.
• Flexible use and utilitarian
• Program space for classes, day camps, meetings
• Convenient to users
• Community programming with partners
• Restrooms in building will serve dual purpose with park

character
6 GUIDELINES
Public parks are an important outward reflection of a community and its values. The type, quantity, quality and visual character of parks, as well as mix of amenities provided, make a statement about what is important to a community. These guidelines will support the development of parks that draw users from a range of age groups and interests together in spaces that provide an array of possible experiences and that express the “place” in unique and interesting ways. Each park should be context-specific, taking into consideration the site’s natural, cultural and demographic conditions, in addition to program priorities. This approach is called “setting-based” park design.

Parks should also reflect safety and security design practices, as well as the City’s environmental sustainability and accessibility goals.

6.1 GENERAL PARK DESIGN GUIDELINES
Planning
• A representative range of the community should be meaningfully engaged in the design of each park.
• Park programming should consider any existing or planned nearby facilities to determine the ideal mix of uses to meet City-wide park and recreation goals and standards.
• Parks should be programmed and designed to appeal to multiple user groups from toddler to senior, and to provide both active and passive, as well as individual and group recreation opportunities • Parks shall be carefully located to enhance community livability and quality of life and should not be isolated remnant pieces of land.

Design
• Placemaking elements (e.g. landmarks, natural features, water features, thematic play, furnishings or other equipment, art, design character, etc.) should be designed into each park to create meaning and connection for the community. A variety of elements should be layered through the design and could express a range of cultural, historical, natural and mythical themes.
• Park activities and facilities should be sited in a manner which minimizes conflicts between park uses.
• Provide flexibility in park facilities to accommodate a range of activities and adaptation to growth and changing demographics over time (e.g. multi-use sports fields; open greens as amphitheaters, event spaces and informal picnic areas).
• Incorporate learning opportunities into park design.
• Parks should have clear entries and edges. Park entries should create a sense of arrival, welcoming and orienting users. 2022 DRAFT

• Parks should have a unifying structure that links separate areas. • Wherever possible, highlight and strengthen connections between the park and other public spaces and community destinations. • Provide logical, integrated, safe and ADA compliant access and circulation throughout the park.
• Parks should be logically organized to provide synergistic relationships between compatible uses (e.g. group picnic near play areas). • Potentially conflicting uses and/or users should be separated (e.g. play areas and skate parks or basketball).
• Fencing, when used, should be attractive and should not detract from the aesthetic quality of the space.
• Ball fields and other sports fields and courts should be oriented to minimize wind exposure and glare from the sun.
• Provide shade for seating and picnic areas.
• Park designs should provide for logical maintenance and emergency vehicle access. • Park landscaping should be water efficient.
• The park design process should consider capital costs, as well as long-term maintenance and operations costs and logistics in the design of the park.

6.2 NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS
Neighborhood parks provide a social focus and both active and passive recreation opportunities for homes within a 1/4 to 1/2 mile radius.

They generally offer facilities geared toward individuals, families and small groups of nearby residents. They are generally not locations for formally organized sports tournaments or large group events that draw users from outside of the immediate area.

Standards
• Neighborhood parks shall be provided at a ratio of 3 acres per 1,000 population
• Neighborhood parks shall be a minimum of 3 acres in size • Service areas for neighborhood parks shall be 1/4 to 1/2 mile Neighborhood Park Design Guidelines
Neighborhood parks should be designed and programmed to provide active and passive elements for a range of users, as shown in the following illustrative examples. 2022 DRAFT

6.3 COMMUNITY PARKS
A Community Park is a large park that serves several neighborhoods, or a large portion of a city. They meet larger scale recreation needs that are not feasible at the neighborhood level, such as tournament sports and large group events. As with neighborhood parks they should be programmed to provide both active and passive recreation opportunities for a wide range of users. In some instances, a community park may be a special use park, that provides an amenity or serves a function that attracts citywide users, such as an equestrian facility or natural area.

Community Park Standards
• Community parks shall be provided at a ratio of 2 acres per 1,000 population
• Community parks shall be a minimum of 20 acres in size, except in the case of special use facilities
• Service areas for neighborhood parks shall be 1 to 2 miles Community Park Design Guidelines
A community park should incorporate the following elements:

Layout and Circulation
• A clear point of arrival or central hub from which other site elements radiate. • A hierarchical pathway system which organizes and links site elements. • Circulation system must provide adequate access for maintenance and public safety vehicles.
• Welcoming entry portals from all perimeter streets and trail interfaces.

Active Sports
• Sports Fields: Ball fields and soccer fields suitable for youth and adult practice and play and tournament facilities, as needed (bleachers, restrooms, concessions) • Sport Courts: tennis courts and basketball courts
• To the extent feasible and needed, provide synthetic surfaces and light active sports facilities to maximize potential use • Where lighting is provided for sports fields or courts, hours of operation will be regulated by the city, and light sources will be shielded to minimize light spillage to off-site locations. • Speciality Sports Facilities: horseshoes, bocce ball, petanque, handball, slack lining, cricket 2022 DRAFT

6.4 SUSTAINABILITY
Environmental sustainability should be designed into all City of Patterson parks and open spaces. On a general level, the concept of sustainability refers to ensuring that the needs of the present are achieved without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. On a practical level, this means working to minimize the negative environmental impacts of the built environment, minimizing resource use and waste, and designing outdoor spaces to function like natural systems, wherever possible.

Energy Efficiency
• Use energy efficient lighting sources such as LED and/or solar powered lighting
• Minimize energy consumption by using motion detection systems that dim or shut off lighting when not needed
• Identify opportunities for use of alternative sources of energy, such as wind turbines and photovoltaics
Sustainable Landscaping
The California Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance and the California Green Building Code are state regulations that require a range of sustainable landscape design and building practices.

above and beyond these requirements. Its Guidelines outline landscape design and maintenance practices that support eight key principles:

1. Act Local

2. Reduce Waste

3. Nurture Soil

4. Sequester Carbon

5. Save Water

6. Conserve Energy

7. Protect Water and Air

8. Create Habitat.

These or similar guidelines should be consulted in park and open space design. At a minimum, designs should reflect the following:
• Plants should be selected and sized to allow them to grow to natural size without shearing and offhaul of plant waste • No plants listed by Cal-IPC as invasive in the area shall be specified • California native, Mediterranean or other climate adapted plants that require little or no summer water shall be specified for a minimum of 75% of all non-turf plants • Total irrigated area specified as turf is limited to a maximum of 25%, with sports or multi-use fields exempted
• Specify weather-based, automatic, self-adjusting irrigation controllers with rain and wind sensors Trees
Trees are critical components of parks. They are valued for their scenic beauty and pastoral quality, as well as a wide variety of functions, including shade provision, oxygen production, air purification, erosion control, wind protection, reduction of urban temperatures and positive impact on property values.
• Trees should be provided in abundance in parks to bring nature and natural forms into the space and to provide easy access to shade in multiple locations throughout the park.
• Trees intended for shade should be installed at a minimum of 24” box to ensure the tree serves this function within a reasonable time frame.
• Existing trees on park sites that are mature and healthy or have a unique quality or significance, such as the existing Palm trees in the historic Town Center, should be preserved wherever possible. 2022 DRAFT

6.5 JOINT USE DETENTION BASINS/ RECREATION

FACILITIES
In an effort to maximize the efficient use of land and funds, detention basins may be designed as dual-use recreation facilities. This allows a single facility to satisfy needs for recreation facilities, water quality, flood control and aesthetics and limits the amount of land devoted exclusively to stormwater detention. To count as a recreation facility, a detention basin must have a minimum of 1 acre of uninterrupted turf area suitable to accommodate an appropriately-sized sports field based on recognized standards, excluding the area for vegetated swales, infiltration basins or the intake area around the drain inlet. In general, passive recreational elements should be incorporated in portions of detention facilities having the greatest potential flood risk and frequency.

Active recreation elements are more suitable in areas within detention facilities having lesser degrees of flood risk and frequency. • The active recreation portion of the basin shall be appropriately graded (maximum 2% cross slope), have appropriate drains, and the side slopes of the basin shall have not more than a 6:1 slope. • Unless otherwise exempted by the City, any sports field within a detention basin shall be designed to fully drain within 48 hours of a rain event with a 100 year frequency.

• The facility must be designed in accordance with applicable maintenance standards; and must conform to all applicable laws and regulations relating to stormwater detention facilities. • Parking, restrooms and other structures, light fixtures, play areas, and site furnishings should not be located in the lower tiers of the basin.
• The facility must meet ADA accessibility standards in order to be considered dual-use.

6.6 DOG PARKS
Dog parks can be a welcoming feature of a neighborhood or community park, or a stand-alone facility. They have increasingly become locations for neighbors and friends to socialize, while their dogs are exercising and socializing as well. Dog parks should be designed to minimize potential conflicts, be easily maintainable, and to provide a pleasant and healthful area for pets, their owners, and the neighboring community.

Design Considerations for Off-Leash Dog Areas
• Dog park areas should be fenced. Fencing should be a minimum of 4 feet in height, and should not allow small dogs to escape. • Provide a double-entry gate system. Locate gates away from corners of the dog park to avoid entering dogs from being cornered by other dogs rushing to greet them. Provide a second access point to allow for alternative exit route if a conflict should arise. • Separate large and small dog areas, if space allows.
• Avoid surfacing materials that may become stuck in paws, such as wood chips.
• Clearly display dog park rules and regulations.
• Provide dog waste bags and trash receptacles.
• Provide a water source for dogs and owners, and depending on surfacing materials, for maintenance of the area.
• Provide seating for owners, and shade for owners and dogs.

6.7 SAFETY AND SECURITY
Optimizing safety and security is an important component in the delivery of a comprehensive and high-quality parks and recreation system.

ership and acting as guardians, thus discouraging undesirable users.

Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) is an approach to the design of public spaces based on three closely related principles intended to reduce the opportunity for undesirable behavior and promote the prescribed, desired and acceptable uses and intended functions of a space. These are: Natural Surveillance, Natural Access Control, and Territorial Reinforcement. The following guidelines reflect CPTED principles.

Site Selection and Orientation
• Locate parks centrally within neighborhoods, allowing visibility from all sides and, wherever possible, locate parks in areas with abundant normal activity throughout the day.
• Ensure parks are easily accessible with safe pedestrian and bicycle routes, public transit, and sufficient parking, as needed, to maximize the opportunity for use. • Orient homes and businesses to face the park wherever possible. At a minimum, have windows facing the park.
• Where possible, co-locate community parks with fire stations or other public safety facilities.

Community Ownership & Involvement
• Engage the community in meaningful participation in the park design.
• Incorporate public art into park designs whenever practical as a way to connect the community with the space, express community identity and create a sense of ownership.
• Promote community involvement in park safety. Encourage “Neighborhood Watch” programs within neighborhoods to increase citizen surveillance • Organize community litter and graffiti removal events Circulation & Layout
• Locate walkways and activity nodes to maximize the opportunity for observation by neighbors and facilitate surveillance by law enforcement.
• Where appropriate, provide wayfinding that makes circulation routes to activity nodes and entry points clear so that users do not become lost and vulnerable.

Use durable, low maintenance furnishings
Visibility & Lighting
• Design and maintain landscape so that the area between 24-inches and 72-inches above the ground is free of plant material that can obstruct views into and within a site.
• Carefully consider the placement and use of berms in parks so that they do not prevent surveillance or create ambush points. • Ensure walkways and activity nodes are lit to a minimum 4 foot candles. Lighting of pathways should allow for facial recognition at a distance of 60 feet and allow users to distinguish changes in grade. Light other areas, as appropriate, to allow detection of movement. Refer to Guideline on Security Lighting for People, Property and Public Spaces, Illuminating Society of North America (IESNA G-1-03). • Design lighting to avoid light trespass, which can lead neighbors to close window coverings, thereby losing the potential for natural surveillance
• Consider motion-activated lighting as a method to signal park use to observers and law enforcement and to indicate history of movement. • Provide lighting that meets safety and security needs, but that does not encourage undesired night-time use of the parks.

Fixtures, Furnishings & Amenities
• Attract intended park users by providing appealing amenities that meet a range of recreation needs for a range of users, express community identity or unique park themes, and have been selected with input from the community during the outreach process.
• Provide furnishings that discourage squatting, such as benches with separators.
• Use durable, vandal resistant and low maintenance furnishings, fixtures and planting to promote the image of cared-for environment, while minimizing maintenance costs.
• Provide skateboarding amenities to meet this recreation need and to discourage inappropriate use elsewhere.
• Use approaches such as skate stops or notching of concrete to discourage skateboarding in areas where it would conflict with other uses.
• Provide rest rooms, where feasible, to attract desirable users. Incorporate security features such as personal alarms, and automatic locks which prevent access outside of park hours.

• Maintenance of landscape to achieve visibility between the heights of 2’ and 6’ above the ground; and
• Repair of fixtures, furnishings and other equipment.
• Require dogs to be on leash at all times, except in designated areas. • Incorporate CPTED design review for all park plans submitted for approval. Create CPTED checklist for distribution to project applicants.
• Work closely with law enforcement to identify highest risk parks and coordinate crime prevention efforts.

6.8 ACCESS
As Patterson continues to develop, providing bicycle and pedestrian access to the City’s parks should be a priority. The General Plan Circulation Element articulates this in its policies related to Goal T-7: “To promote pedestrian, bicycle, and rail travel as alternatives to automobile use.” General Plan policies include provision of safe pedestrian and bike pathways, safe and convenient bike routes to recreation, and pathways in open space.

The City’s adopted Transportation Infrastructure Master Plan (began concurrently with the Parks and Recreation Master Plan in 2012, adopted in 2020), includes recommendations for encouraging walking and biking. Recommendations include that future development consider schools as important bicycle destinations, incorporating Complete Street policies and creating more continuous bike lanes at key destinations, and redesigning downtown streets based on walkable and livable principles. These steps will support access by all residents to Patterson’s parks and open spaces.

In recent years, City began an Active Transportation Plan (ATP). The ATP’s vision is to “creat[e] a safe, connected, vibrant, and well-maintained walking and bicycling network that supports people of all ages and abilities” with the eight goals: promote walking and biking, safety, connectivity, health, equity, accessibility, environment, and implementation. In sum, the ATP recommends 41 bicycle projects and 18 pedestrian projects across the City, ranging from 8.27 miles of sidewalk to implementing bike facilities from the City’s Transportation Infrastructure Master Plan (2020). Over half of the recommended bicycle projects are bike lanes, on 11 miles of City streets. The pedestrian projects range from fixing all sidewalk gaps, new or upgraded signals, and crosswalk upgrades.

In addition to the policies and recommendations mentioned above, this Parks and Recreation Master Plan recommends improving access to parks and open spaces by:
• Including parks as “important” and “key” destinations when considering bicycle and pedestrian circulation; • Prioritizing parks and recreation facilities as well as schools as key destinations when designing Complete Streets;
• Providing a sufficient number of conveniently located bicycle racks at all parks and recreation facilities; and
• Expanding the system of multi-use paths that function as linear parks.

In Chapter 5 - Recommendations, this Master Plan defines service areas for neighborhood and community parks. It maps distribution of Community Parks, showing existing and proposed bicycle routes connecting to those parks, as well as to Natural Parks and Trails. The service area standard calls for every resident to have access to a neighborhood park within a barrier-free 5 to 10 minute walk. This aligns with the national “10-Minute Walk” movement. On its Parkserve website (parkserve.tpl.org), the Trust for Public Land has identified that 85% of Patterson’s residents are within a 10 minute walk of a park. As the City grows, park locations should continue to meet the 10-minute walk criteria.

This Plan presents a long term vision, to be implemented over time as Patterson’s population grows. Planning level costs have been projected for buildout, but as the Plan has a 20-year time horizon, costs, needs and development patterns will likely evolve. The plan should be periodically reviewed and updated as conditions change.

Critical to the success of this Master Plan is the ability to secure stable and ongoing funding for its implementation. This includes funds for capital improvements, as well as ongoing operations and maintenance of programs and facilities. The funding of parks and recreation is a challenge in many jurisdictions nation-wide. In California, the ability of local governments to raise additional property tax revenues was severely limited in 1978 with Proposition 13. While societal expectations of park and recreation agencies have increased across the board, economic and political conditions make dependable funding streams more and more elusive. No single funding source is likely to provide all of the resources required to fund a complete parks and recreation program. A variety of creative approaches will be required.

The first section of this chapter contains specific recommendations for next steps to implement the Master Plan. The subsequent sections provide greater detail regarding cost recovery strategies, a range of potential funding options for the City to consider, and finally, planning level cost estimates for both existing deficiencies and for build-out of the park system at Patterson’s projected population of 66,000.

7.1 NEXT STEPS:

The Master Plan is a tool that the City can use to create a park system which supports a livable, beautiful, economically sustainable community. The Master Plan should not be allowed to sit on a shelf. Rather, it should be incorporated into overall City process and be used to guide planning decisions and influence the City’s budget development process. The plan recommends the following implementation actions:

7.1.1. SYSTEMATIC INTEGRATION OF THE PARK

MASTER PLAN INTO CITY PLANNING PROCESSES
The Master Plan anticipates substantial growth in the City of Patterson, requiring a total of 198 acres of neighborhood parks and 132 acres of community park facilities to serve a population of 66,000 at build

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
7 IMPLEMENTATION
out. Patterson’s growth will occur incrementally. Each new residential development will need to accommodate the recreational needs of its proposed development based on the standards and guidelines provided in the City of Patterson’s General Plan and this Parks and Recreation Master Plan. If the proposed new development is not able to accommodate park needs genereated by its population on its own property, it will need to participate in funding the City’s acquisition and development of required park land. The Master Plan identifies general new community park facilities that will be developed to meet the projected park needs. Many of the sites for these parks are not currently owned by the City. To ensure that the community parks are in the appropriate locations and create positive relationships with adjacent land uses, the City needs to specifically identify the locations for future community parks. Finalizing the selection of community park sites is especially important where multiple options have been identified in the Master Plan or the property is not currently zoned or identified as a park site in General Plan.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Identify targeted areas for community parks and document those locations in General Plan and other planning documents.

2. Develop a process to include the Recreation and Community Services Department, and the Parks Maintenance Division in the final selection of neighborhood park sites.

3. Develop protocols to include the Recreation and Community Services Department and the Parks Maintenance Division in updating the Park Design Guidelines (1995) and 2006 Park Design Guideline Amendments to reflect Master Plan recommendations, and in reviewing the program and design of neighborhood parks proposed for construction and dedication by the development community.

7.1.2 UPDATE PARK IMPACT DEVELOPMENT FEES
Use of Quimby Act dedication and development impact fees are the primary mechanism to provide the parks and recreation facilities for new development. These funding mechanisms are described further in Section 7.7 of this chapter. Current impact fees do not reflect the costs to construct the community and neighborhood parks required to meet the standards set forth in the City’s General Plan and this Parks and Recreation Master Plan to serve future residents.

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Undertake adjustments to current impact and Quimby Act fees based on the Parks and Recreation Master Plan and projected facility costs. Planning level cost estimates and suggested development fees are included in Section 7.10 of this Chapter.

2. Review impact fees in a timely manner and periodically adjust for inflation to ensure that deficiencies are not created by the gap between project costs and the current impact fee.

3. Look at opportunities to require park fees for non-residential development through a comprehensive nexus study looking at the benefits contributed by the park system to a healthy workforce and livable, economically sustainable community.

7.1.3 DEVELOP A STRATEGY FOR ADDRESSING

EXISTING DEFICIENCIES
Project prioritization should be linked with a 5-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), providing clear guidance on which projects to undertake each year and on the accumulation of funds over multiple years to address larger projects. Community endorsement and reliance on the CIP will avoid continuing conflicts between competing interests.

There are many projects seeking funding through the General Fund.

The Master Plan identifies a number of potential strategies to fund the acquisition and development of the park system.

Development impact fees will not address the existing deficiencies in park acreage, sports and community facilities. The funding for these facilities will need to be addressed via General Fund, grants, special financing districts or bonds. Cost recovery through user fees is typically only used to offset maintenance and operations costs. Special financing districts and bonds require a public vote and typically would be associated with a specific project for which there is strong support in the community. All of these mechanisms are described more fully in subsequent sections of this chapter.

PROJECT PRIORITIZATION
Currently the General Fund is the most likely source of funds to address deficiencies. Community support of the prioritization of individual projects is critical. To achieve this endorsement, the prioritization of park expenditures should be done in a public forum. With limited resources; expenditures and benefits must be carefully weighed, and the overall benefit of each park project must be analyzed. Potential

7 IMPLEMENTATION
project priorities must also be evaluated in light of potential targeted sources of funding or collaborative efforts. Prioritization should consider need, return on investment, and implications on maintenance and operations budgets. Establishing weighted criteria for evaluating potential projects will create a systematic approach to prioritization.

Possible criteria to be considered might include:
• PUBLIC HEALTH & SAFETY
• Does the project correct conditions that are hazards or code violations (e.g. unsafe equipment, fire hazard)?
• Does it provide safety and security for the users and property (e.g. visibility, lighting, etc.)?
• Does it correct ADA deficiencies?
• ADDRESS EXISTING DEFICIENCY
• Does the project improve or expand facilities for an underserved neighborhood?
• Does it improve potential for programs and services for at-risk youth?
• Does it provide facilities or elements that are lacking in the community? (e.g. tournament soccer facility, sports field, black box theater)
• Does it preserve, improve or enhance cultural, historical or natural resources?
• PROTECTION OF INFRASTRUCTURE / MAINTENANCE

EFFICIENCIES
• Does the project preserve the integrity of the City’s existing park infrastructure?
• Does it provide major repairs/renovations to an existing facility? • Does it provide minor repairs/renovations to an existing facility? • Do improvements reduce ongoing maintenance costs?
• COMMUNITY SUPPORT
• Does the project have demonstrated support from the community? • Has there been significant community input expressing the need for the project?
• Does it provide greater access to recreation facilities for a segment of community? • COLLABORATIVE OPPORTUNITIES AND FUNDING

AVAILABILITY
• Do improvements generate increased revenues for the City?

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
• Is City funding available?
• Is grant funding available?
• Is joint use or collaboration possible with outside public agencies (e.g. School District, Sports Group Alliance, Rotary, Stanislaus County)?
• Will it provide collaborative opportunities with non-profit organizations? Acquisition of parkland and the funding for development of new facilities will take time. This is especially true for community parks where the funds to acquire and develop facilities will be accumulated over many years. To address deficiencies, joint use of facilities may present more immediate and cost effective methods of providing interim recreation amenities.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

4. Work with pending developments as part of the planning process to ensure acquisition of parkland and the development of new facilities.

5. Negotiate Memoranda of Understanding (“MOUs”) with the School District to provide public access to existing recreation facilities or improvement of interim sports fields on school property.

6. Develop an “alliance” of sports user groups to act as a unified voice when scheduling existing fields, collaborating with School District on joint use, and developing City CIP priorities.

7. Develop a community endorsed Capital Improvement Program (CIP) which outlines how General Funds will be allocated during each cycle to address park deficiencies. Review and update the CIP regularly in a public forum (e.g. Parks, Recreation and Beautification Commission, or City Council meeting). Elements needed to address existing deficiencies are identified in Section 7.11 of this Chapter.

8. Prioritize potential community park sites for future acquisition by the City.

9. Explore opportunities to work in partnership with Stanislaus County to acquire, develop and manage park land.

7.1.4 DEVELOP A STABLE SOURCE OF REVENUE TO

MAINTAIN EXISTING PARKS AND FACILITIES,

INCLUDING LIFECYCLE REPLACEMENT COSTS
Maintenance and operations are essential for a functional, inviting and attractive park system. Basic maintenance costs include personnel costs for tasks such as replacing light bulbs, cleaning gutters, trash removal, carpet cleaning, window washing, mowing turf, pruning trees, weeding, upkeep of irrigation systems, etc. Operations costs also include water and electricity charges. Life-cycle costs, such as routine replacement of elements such as carpets, furnishings, play structures, court surfacing, field turf, irrigation, etc., must be included in ongoing maintenance projections.

Currently, maintenance funding through many of the existing assessment districts does cover all the costs associated with facility operations and maintenance. Maintenance of the older parks is funded through the General Fund. As new parkland is added, operations and maintenance costs increase. An accepted guideline for staffing levels is an additional one full-time employee for each 15 acres of new parkland. Assessment district rates in new developments must reflect current maintenance costs, and must contain escalation provisions to account for future increases. Because the parks in older districts have been underfunded and General Fund parks have limited available funding, the City currently operates a two-tiered maintenance program. Newer parks, funded by recent assessment districts, receive a higher level of maintenance than do the older parks operating under the General Fund or underfunded assessment districts.

RECOMMENDATIONS

1. Evaluate cost recovery opportunities associated with various programs and facilities. (See Section 7.2)

2. Explore return on investment associated with upgrading with available energy efficient technology.

3. Form Citywide or additional local Special Financing Districts to provide an ongoing funding stream for park maintenance and operations. (See Section 7.4)

4. Develop a segregated capital reinvestment fund within the City’s General Fund to support life-cycle replacements.

5. Develop a segregated account for user fees, concession charges, and other revenues generated from the parks, for reinvestment in maintenance of the parks.

7.2 COST RECOVERY AND SUBSIDY ANALYSIS
The reality of increasing expectations of park and recreation agencies, combined with tightening budgets necessitates careful analysis of the services that can be provided to residents and at what cost. A range of factors should be considered when developing a cost recovery and subsidy approach. The Pyramid Methodology developed by GreenPlay LLC, assists in categorizing services along a continuum of relative community versus individual benefit.

Facilities, programs and other services are placed within one of these categories, considering factors including:
• Is there a legal or other obligation to provide the service? • Who receives benefit?
• Is it a core value of the agency to provide the service? • Is participation restricted?
• Is there a public expectation to provide the service? • Are there other (private, non-profit) service providers? The current facilities and program provided by the Patterson Recreation and Community Services Department have been categorized here, based on community outreach, staff and Steering Committee input and the results of the needs assessment.

Mostly Community Benefit
These are services that have a general benefit to the community. They are generally paid for through taxes and are therefore available to all residents for little or no fee. They may increase property values, provide safety, address social needs, and enhance quality of life. It is assumed that these services are funded through General Fund Allocations, Development Impact Fees or Dedication, grants or other sources not requiring direct user fees from the public. • provision of parks, opens spaces and trails, including • sports fields, practice / game
• play areas
• court sports (tennis, basketball, volleyball)
• picnic areas (some picnic areas may also be made available through reservations with an associated fee)
• shade structures and trees
• spray parks
• dog parks
• skate parks
• restrooms in public parks
• drinking fountains in public parks
• public trails and bikeways
• public opens spaces, natural areas, gardens
• park, open space and trails maintenance
Considerable Community Benefit
These services promote individual physical health and mental well-being and may provide some skills development. These are generally programs that are expected by the community or are at beginner instructional levels. Costs are partially offset by a tax subsidy to account for the degree of community benefit with the remainder covered by fees calculated as a percentage of costs. Scholarships or tiered fee structures may be made available to ensure access for low income residents. • multi-generational community centers offering introductory programs, such as:
• preschool programs
• active adult and senior programs - Hammon Senior Center Programs • aquatics admission, aerobics and diving classes, swim lessons • introductory sports instruction - Youth, Flag Football, martial arts, swim lessons, teen programs - Patterson Youth Action Commission

• health and wellness programs
• academic/employment related programs
• arts programs - dance, music
Individual/Community Benefit (Balanced Beneficiaries)
This category captures services providing programs that promote individual physical and mental well-being at an intermediate level of skill development therefore catering to a smaller group of the population.

Fees would be expected to recapture a greater percentage of cost than services of greater general benefit.
• summer day camps
• sports leagues and teams - Swim team, Patterson Recreation Youth sports leagues
• intermediate level instruction programs in art, dance, music, martial arts
Considerable Individual Benefit
These services generally meet the needs of a smaller subset of the population with specialized interests, a high level of skill or a competitive focus. Such services may seek to recover full costs, both direct and indirect.
• specialty classes
• golf
Mostly Individual Benefit
These services generally fall outside of the core mission of the Parks and Recreation Department and may also be available in the private sector. Such services may be priced to bring in a profit as well as recover all direct and indirect costs. Such services may include:
• elite teams - Patterson Recreation Youth Soccer competition teams, Tigers All-Stars
• highly specialized instruction
• event facility rentals -e.g. Patterson Aquatic Center Birthday Party Packages

7.3 GENERAL FUND
The General Funds of local governments are comprised primarily of tax dollars, intergovernmental revenues and user fees and charges.

Parks and Recreation is just one of the many local government services competing for limited General Fund dollars. General Fund allocations can support parks and recreation improvements and services that rep7.3.b Packet Pg. 246 Attachment: Patterson Parks Master Plan_FinalDraft2022 - Compressed File (Parks and Recreation Master Plan) 140 CITY OF PATTERSON

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
7 IMPLEMENTATION
resent general benefit to all citizens of the jurisdiction. An advantage to General Fund allocations is that they are unrestricted, however City budgets are often strained to support public safety, public works and all other local government services, as well as parks and recreation. As a result funds are often less than adequate to fund a full program. Budgets can vary widely from year to year, potentially leaving programs and maintenance underfunded. This clearly points to the need for dedicated funding sources, such as special financing districts, for parks operations and maintenance.

7.4 SPECIAL FINANCING DISTRICTS (SFD)
Special Taxes and Special Assessments are two types of special financing districts (SFDs). They are property-based revenue mechanisms used by local governments to finance projects, maintenance or services. They are valued as focused local sources of funding with direct accountability, i.e. those who benefit from the service or infrastructure are those who pay. In general, it is assumed that the beneficiary of any improvements should pay in proportion to their property benefit.

In determining the appropriateness of an SFD the following issues should be carefully considered:
• Fairness and equity
• Market sensitivity
• Potential for approval
• Timing and predictability of revenues and expenses (and need for debt)
• Legal perspective
Specialized professionals including Special Tax Consultants, Public Relations Professionals, Financial Advisors, Underwriters, Attorneys or Bond Counsels can be engaged to facilitate the creation and success of a new SFD.

Landscape Maintenance Districts (LMDs)
Special assessments are charges levied against a parcel of land for the benefit that is generated by the underlying public service or improvement project. Examples are Landscape Maintenance Districts used to pay for annual maintenance costs of a park. The governing body of the entity levying the Assessment must make a finding of Special Benefit in order to validate this process. Special Benefit is defined as “a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on

7.3.b
Packet Pg. 247 Attachment: Patterson Parks Master Plan_FinalDraft2022 - Compressed File (Parks and Recreation Master Plan) CITY OF PATTERSON 141
7 IMPLEMENTATION

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
real property located in the district or to the public at large”. General benefit is available to the public, and therefore cannot be charged to property owners.

These districts are typically formed to fund maintenance of neighborhood parks serving the neighborhood being assessed. Examples of LMDs in Patterson include Heartland Ranch, Walker Ranch, Patterson Gardens, and Sutter Pointe LMDs.

Mello-Roos Community Facilities Districts
A Special Tax is a financial charge that is levied annually on a property for a defined period of years. The Special Tax is calculated via some type of formula or, in the case of a Community Facilities District, a Rate and Method of Apportionment. A Community Facilities District (CFD) is a common type of Special Tax District used for funding ongoing maintenance services, capital projects, or both. It is allowed under the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 and is found in California Government Code Section 53311 et seq. Per Proposition 13, any new Special Taxes must be approved by a two-thirds vote.

Accountability measures designed into the Special Tax may enhance the likelihood that voters will approve a tax. These might include a citizen’s oversight committee or a sunset clause (a date by which the tax expires).

Examples of facilities with capital costs (but not ongoing maintenance costs) funded by Mello Roos Districts include Patterson Aquatics Center, Hammon Senior Center, and the Patterson Skate Park.

Enhanced Infrastructure Financing Districts (EIFD)
New legislation allows the use of Tax Increment Financing (TIF). The inrease in tax revenues generated by development maybe used to repay bonds issued to fund community investment projects such as Parks.

7.5 GENERAL OBLIGATION BOND
General obligation bonds are paid by an earmarked increase in property tax above the one percent mandated by Proposition 13. Referred to as “property tax overrides”, they require a 2/3 voter approval and usually appear on the tax bill as “voter indebtedness”. The tax is levied for a specified period of time (from 10 to 40 years). The proceeds from General Obligation Bonds can be used to finance the acquisition, construction and improvement of real property, but cannot be used to

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
7 IMPLEMENTATION
pay for equipment, supplies, operations or maintenance costs. Use of such bonds has declined, due to the high approval requirement and the interest costs.

7.6 FEES AND CHARGES
With ever-increasing strain on local government budgets, user fees and charges can help maintain and even potentially expand recreation offerings. Fees and charges create a direct connection between the funding source and the beneficiary of the service. Many see this as an appropriate way to provide services. This is however a more businesslike approach to the provision of services and some argue that lower income groups may be at risk of being priced out of a recreation facility or program. This issue should be considered and avoided when developing a pricing system to ensure that the City is providing its core services to all citizens. Current examples include youth sports and aquatics.

Developing a revenue policy that establishes a framework for fees and charges that local elected officials can understand and support can be a valuable tool in implementing fees and charges. This policy should consider level of funding from the General Fund, residents’ average income level, comparable fees at other recreation providers, service demand and the City’s values with regard to revenue generation versus subsidies. Typical parks and recreation fees are shown on the following table.

Types of Recreation and Park Fees

7.7 DEVELOPMENT RELATED FINANCING
Quimby Act Dedication and Fees
The Quimby Act (Section 66477 of the California Government Code) grants cities and counties the authority to require the dedication of land or payment of fees in lieu thereof (or a combination of both) by a new residential subdivision. The City can require such a dedication at the park land standard that was in effect at the time of adoption of the implementing ordinance, to a maximum of 5.0 acres per 1,000 population. Revenues generated through the Quimby Act cannot be used for operation or maintenance of park facilities. The park or facility must not be intended to make up an existing deficit, but must serve the new residents of the subdivision in question.

Development Impact Fees
Fees can be exacted from developers to pay for the impact that their residential development will have on existing infrastructure or in creating the need for new infrastructure such as roads or parks. Such fees are typically required as conditions of approval of a proposed development and are authorized under the city’s police powers over land use.

These fees are paid at the time of acquiring the building permit.

Fee Type Description Examples
Permit/
License
Charges for written permission to perform an
action or the authority to occupy space or use property Show permits, hunting/fishing licenses, alcohol permits, photography permits
Rental Charges for the exclusive use of tangible property of any kind
Bicycles, skates, tables, golf carts, picnic kits, horses, party rooms, cabins Facility Use Charges for the shared use of a facility Driving range, campsites, ball fields, swimming pools, ice rinks, golf course,

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
7 IMPLEMENTATION
Some jurisdictions now impose fees on any improvements anticipated to increase the number of residents likely to be residing in a dwelling unit, including residential additions, remodels and renovations.

Development impact fees may be reasonably exacted on new non-residential development in a City, as it may increase the daytime population resulting in additional facility users. A comprehensive nexus study should be conducted to identify such a relationship in order to justify fees on the non-residential development.

AB 1600 (California Government Code Section 66000 et seq.) requires the agency exacting the fee to do the following:
• Identify the fee’s purpose
• Identify the fee’s uses
• Establish a reasonable relationship between the fee’s use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed • Determine whether there is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public improvement and the development project on which the fee is imposed.

Examples of Patterson facilities funded by development impact fees are the T.W. Patterson Sports Complex, and the Community Center Complex.

For suggested development fees based on land use, see Section 7.10 of this Chapter.

7.8 PARTNERSHIPS
Partnerships provide a variety of opportunities to share facilities, skills and resources, provide free or low cost labor, and supplement revenues. Potential partners range from sports groups, social service agencies, youth and church groups, to businesses, police departments and school districts.

The City of Patterson currently partners with a variety of organizations to increase opportunities for service delivery. The Westside Healthcare Advisory Taskforce is a public/private consortium of healthcare proponents on the west side of Stanislaus County and northern Merced County. The Taskforce partners with the City on programs such as Westside Walks.

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
Support Foundations & Friends Groups
Citizens can come together to create non-profit organizations to support a park or facility. They can raise money, sponsor projects and provide volunteer support. Adopt-A-Park and Adopt-A-Trail are ways for community members to support facilities that are important to them.

Clear agreements should be developed between the municipality and groups to clarify what the group is responsible for, e.g. watering, weeding, litter pick-up. Signs at the facility indicating who has “adopted” it, recognizes their contribution and creates goodwill and buy-in.

School Districts
Joint-use agreements with schools can significantly expand available recreation facilities, such as ballfields, soccer fields, gymnasiums and program classrooms. They have the potential to create synergies that benefit both parties.

Private Sector Partnerships
When approaching potential private sector partners, including program sponsorship or naming rights, it is important to present how involvement can be beneficial to them. Corporate donations to public recreation and park agencies can be advantageous because of the tax deductions and public relations benefit. Partnerships can take on a range of forms, such as:
• volunteer labor
• sharing of training and expertise
• loaned equipment (vehicles, A.V. equipment, printing) • loaned space
• donations of used furniture, supplies and equipment
• shared parking
• financial donations
• land donations
• sponsorships
• scholarships
• endowment/revolving fund
• advertising
• corporate team challenges
Details and a more comprehensive list of possibilities is contained in the Appendices.

7.9 GRANTS
Grant opportunities are available to parks and recreation agencies for federal, state and county governments, as well as public and private foundations. Grants would be most likely for activities or efforts that include environmental improvements, enhance services and access to parks for underrepresented communities, or promote and support art/ drama. Projects that provide multiple benefits can increase the possibility of successful grant applications. Grants often require matching funds. A number of grants, along with money raised through a capital campaign, may be required to fund one project. Grants most often finance planning, acquisition and development of park and recreation areas and facilities. Competition for grant funding can be very intense.

It is recommended that staff responsible for grants be trained in grant writing and grant management to increase its effectiveness in identifying, applying for and securing funding.

Grants currently listed by the California Department of Parks and Recreation Office of Grants and Local Services include:
• Proposition 68
Voters approved $185 million in funding for local jurisdiction park improvements in 2018 (Part of a larger $4 billion bond known at the Parks, Environment and Water Bond, or Proposition 68). Funds will be allocated on a per capita basis and emphasize providing parks for neighborhoods who lack access to parks and nature. Applications under various categories began to be considered in 2019. The City of Patterson identified in following the state’s guidance, can seek funding on projects Master Plan such as those proposed for the natural area parks, and parks in under-served parts of the community. Renovation of the Historic Downtown Parks may be competitive for Prop. 68 funding, as may Centennial Park.
• Recreational Trails Program
This program provides funds annually for recreational trails and trails-related projects. Administered at the federal level by the Federal Highway Administration, approximately $1.7 million in annual funds for non-motorized trails are administered at the state level by the California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR).

PARKS AND RECREATION MASTER PLAN
• Habitat Conservation Fund
This program allocates approximately $2 million every year to cities, counties and districts to fund nature interpretation and other non-capital outlay programs that bring urban residents into park and wildlife areas, to protect various plant and animal species or to acquire or develop wildlife corridors and trails. A 50% match is required. The Office of Grants and Local Services encourages non-profit partnerships with public agencies to enhance recreational opportunities. • Land and Water Conservation Fund
This program provides grants for the acquisition or development of outdoor recreation areas and facilities. Property acquired or developed under the program is federally protected in perpetuity for public outdoor recreation use. Grant requests of up to $3 million are encouraged, and a minimum 50% match is required. The Office of Grants and Local Services also encourages public-non-profit partnerships for this program.

Other grants are available through governmental agencies and foundations, such as the Federal Land and Water Conservation Fund, AARP Livable Communities and Kaboom.

7.10 OTHER FUNDING SOURCES
Infrastructure State Revolving Fund (ISRF)
The California Infrastructure bank program provides financing to public agencies at below market interest rates to fund a range of infrastructure projects including cost to design, construction, renovate parklands and facilities. It can also be used to aquire parkland. Financing repayments can be made through a variety of sources ncluding general fund revenues, property assessment and special taxes.

Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT)
The TOT is a tax assessed to visitors staying in all lodging establishments which in the city limits. Improvement to community park facilities, such as the development of a tournament sports facility area, create a demand for lodging and this increased revenue from hotel use.

This increase can be used as on ongoing funding source for park and recreation programs, services and maintenance.

7.11 PLANNING LEVEL SUMMARY OF ANTICIPATED

PARK FACILITY COSTS AND DEVELOPMENT IMPACT
FEES
Based on identified deficiencies in existing park facilities and projected needs at City build-out, order of magnitude costs have been identified on Table 7-2. These costs provide a general sense of the funds needed over time for land and facilities. It is expected that funding for these projects will come from a variety of the funding mechanisms described in this chapter. Operations and maintenance costs have not been included here, but a general guideline is that maintenance of each 15 acres of park, requires one full-time employee. More detailed planning level costs are included in Table 7-4 at the end of this chapter.

Future Park Needs
Developers will be asked to pay for the development and maintenance of park facilities necessitated by the new populations associated with their developers. The General Plan requires new development to provide 5 park acres of developed parkland per 1,000 of new residence population; 3 acres of which should be dedicated to neighborhood facilities and 2 acres to be community level facilities.

Assuring a total construction cost estimate of $900,000 per acre for new neighborhood parks and $1,300,000 per acre for new community parks. The total cost for new park facilities improvements generated by each population increase of 1,000 is $5.3 million. Land costs are assumed at $125,000 per acre, therefore each new population of 1,000 would generate $625,000 in land acquisition costs. If land is dedicated by the developer this cost may be eliminated. The park development costs associated with the various residential types are as summarized in Table 7-3.

Non-residential land uses can also be required to pay development impact fees. This is generally done by determining the number of employees generated by each land use and assigning a percentage of park usership as compared to a resident user. This approach should be explored in a more detailed nexus study.

1 More things for adults needed 12/2/2021 8:31 PM
2 Please bring a skatepark that has more space to ride around like the one in Oakdale, Ca at the Oakdale skatepark. Please also have more walking/running trails and bike paths that are shaded with trees. Would be nice to be able to walk/run around a water feature with trees lining the path. Possibly create a man made lake for water sports such as kayak, canoeing, paddle boarding.
11/21/2021 5:40 PM
3 More walking paths with distances marked/noted, accessible to wheelchairs & strollers 11/10/2021 3:31 PM 4 Looking forward for to see new things in Patterson. 11/1/2021 8:18 AM 5 Upkeep of parks is great! Just wish there were more basketball or tennis courts. 10/13/2021 2:40 PM 6 I'm excited to see what happens to Patterson Parks in the coming years 10/6/2021 9:07 AM 7 Also under age 12 9/30/2021 4:58 PM

11 The poor park and street scape miss management should be a topic of discussion during the planing of new facilities. Any new facilities built with public funds (our tax money) should be maintained as it if the improvements were our private property. 9/23/2021 1:36 PM
12 We have most of these things already available. It’s up to people to utilize them and they don’t.
9/22/2021 3:36 PM
13 Plan safety & cleaning & lighting 9/16/2021 6:44 AM
14 They need more shade!!! That is the number one reason I don’t like the parks here, the play structures are not shaded
9/15/2021 11:35 AM
15 Placing safety as a top priority, having an aging community in mind, City of Patterson should create a safe and interactive community environment where all interests are met to enjoy an entertaining and peaceful community. Envision a pedestrian friendly city with courtyards for all ages with auditoriums for performing arts, reunions to celebrate festivities and regular days of outdoor play and exercising. Music plays and people move. They walk, run, bike, or skate.

Safety is the mind to maintain enjoyable moments. Enjoy. 9/14/2021 10:31 AM
16 Indoor Soccer facility needed 9/10/2021 12:29 PM
17 I’d would be awesome if you can add to the survey to build an indoor (sports) soccer facility.

Bet you would get 100% positive feed back. There is a small indoor sports facility on the west side of town, Its a great asset for the community. Maybe work together.?! 9/9/2021 1:59 AM
18 Homeless people discourage park use by the average person. 9/8/2021 2:24 PM 19 need 9/7/2021 11:22 PM
20 The City of Patterson should implement more cultural diverse activities for example there are more than Hispanic and White that live here where are all of the African American events? I also see very little of representation of African American youth working in the local businesses in-fact I only know of one store owner that is African American or Black why is that? You have one AA council member but know black owned businesses. There is nothing here to culturally represent this diverse community , Why?
9/7/2021 6:34 PM
21 No, just a lot of shade and cleaning are needed. 9/7/2021 5:34 PM 22 They need to have larger playground and repairs. 9/7/2021 5:31 PM 23 Some of the parks are really dirty and not kept up with, only the grass is cut. 9/7/2021 5:26 PM 24 I would like if in Parks their would be snackbars. 9/7/2021 5:21 PM 25 Partner with local organizations for improved community services. 9/7/2021 1:12 PM 26 Addition of drinking fountains and lots of trash cans. 9/7/2021 1:10 PM 27 I would love to see a wood park structure similar to Donnelly Park in Turlock, and I am looking forward to bike trails around our town.
9/4/2021 4:33 PM
28 Please install tennis courts 9/2/2021 11:56 AM
29 I wish the current swimming pool would offer more lap swim times, especially on the weekends (in the morning is just great) Also, group fitness classes would be amazing, not just for seniors. Yoga, zumba, body pump, spin, bootcamps, etc.
9/1/2021 2:26 PM
30 My kids enjoy fun play structures with shade , grass and walking and biking paths also would love a open tennis court.

39 We need more play structures at gold bar park . Some slides , teeter totter, monkey bars. Pull up bars , balancing things for the kids and other structures. The big climbing wall there is missing a lot of foot pegs. The swings that are there are great and the kids love them. Just wish there was a little more for kids to do their.
8/30/2021 8:31 PM
40 Quit charging leagues money to use fields when all the kids who use those fields are Patterson kids! You already have our tax money!!
8/30/2021 8:23 PM
41 I'm associated with Patterson Little League and we would love to see a portion of the large amount of money we pay for field usage to be invested in the field we pay to use. 8/30/2021 7:16 PM
42 BMX/Bike park would be amazing to see. Waterslides too! 8/30/2021 7:16 PM 43 Make it more accessible to the community. 8/30/2021 7:02 PM 44 Yes 8/30/2021 6:50 PM

47 Most are good, but also lack shade and restrooms. The heat of summer keeps us from playing because everything is hot. The invasion of homeless people and several mentally diminished adults hanging around has also become a problem.

48 N/A 8/30/2021 4:33 PM
49 While I like several of the proposed ideas for the existing park expansions, I must wonder about Patterson Park & Recreation's (P&R) ability to properly manage and maintain said expansions. P&R's maintenance efforts of our existing parks is leaving much to be desired.

Many of our parks are using residential grade trash cans which blow over frequently. The subsequent trash then litters the playgrounds, often for extended periods of time. The landscaping along the bike path running parallel with American Eagle Ave and Floragold Park is typically maintained by volunteer homeowners that have become fed up with P&R's inability to trim and maintain the landscaping along the bike path. The tan bark in the playgrounds could use more frequent refilling/replacement of bark. These are all things that I would like to think P&R has the capacity to handle - especially in light of how much we are paying in Mello Roos.

Before we expand, we should make sure we can handle the infrastructure we already have - which we quite clearly cannot.
8/25/2021 5:52 PM
50 More activities for early elementary students. 8/24/2021 9:46 PM 51 It just seems as if all of our parks looks the same… a sunken area covered with grass with a few small trees and bushes. Can we please change this!
8/24/2021 7:48 PM
52 I do not feel safe at some of our parks; I go outdoors daily and can count on one hand the number of times I've seen them patrolled.
8/24/2021 5:20 PM
53 N/a 8/24/2021 2:32 PM
54 Please consider adding tennis courts and basketball courts to the Sports Park so the area can live up to its name.
8/23/2021 7:02 PM
55 I am very active in umpiring for a tournament club and if we had a venue here with about 4 or more softball fields, I'm sure we could bring some good tournaments to Patterson and create some revenue for the city. This also opens the opportunities for local youth and adult softball leagues.
8/23/2021 10:35 AM
56 No 8/22/2021 3:18 PM
57 The lack of bathrooms and shade make using the parks difficult for any extended period of time. Also there are so many small parks that no one knows the names of - maybe a better map and naming system? If I were to say to someone "meet me at Newcastle park" they would have no idea where that is. Also more defining features to each park - right now so many of them are exactly the same, uninteresting or uncreative. 8/22/2021 8:19 AM
58 We need more appropriate activities at parks for teens and pre teens 8/22/2021 7:00 AM 59 Need to add or update/invest in parks in established areas of town. I live in the Golden Estates neighborhood and we have a drainage basin nearby, but no amenities for children such as play equipment. It would be great to be able to walk to a park instead of always driving to one. 8/21/2021 10:36 AM
60 We have some great parks, but so many of them are unusable during our long hot season and lack of shade and accessible water fountains or bottle refilling stations (this was an issue long before Covid) Addressing the heat safety issues of shade and hydration is a great first step.

Turn on the drinking fountains! We also have a great skate park that is unusable during hot summer days and the lights never get turned on for the young folks to have the opportunity to ride at night when it has cooled off. Turn on the skatepark lights! 8/21/2021 7:41 AM

65 A bike park is preferable for children 2-18 as there are levels of all ages learning to ride and the city of Patterson does not have anywhere that we can safely do that. If you can combine the park with a pump track for more advanced riders it would keep the kids off of the streets with the cars and provide some entertainment. Additionally, adding more space to the pool so that we can expand kids swimming and lessen the burden of water shortage would be great! if all we can afford is a tarp over the play structures at least the swings so they don't get so hot in the summertime it would be great!

70 Please visit cities like Clovis, Chino HIlls, for ideas to bring beautiful parks and activities to Patterson. The current model of tiny parks are only good for loitering and bad behavior. There is no safe park in patterson and lack any real scenery as well. 8/20/2021 3:13 PM

8/19/2021 10:43 PM
77 Overall , I wish those planning the parks take into account the community needs. There are many good examples of parks which provide good facilities for all such as San Ramon. We go to soccer tournaments and it is always a pleasure to there. As a board memebr of Patterson Futblo Club I am intested in soccer fields but understnad the community needs more than just soccer fields to attract business into this community

87 More for the Kids and Teens in this community! Work with the school to utilize what type of buildings are already here in Patterson ex. Rentable classrooms, auditorium, theater, tennis courts, basketball courts, it works for the school to use the pool for swimming, diving, waterpolo. Build the relationship to utilize what we already have. BMX never should have been taken out, just fixed up and fenced to keep protected, like the skatepark.
