RECOMMENDATION
Approve a proclamation recognizing Crime Victims' Rights Week from April 21-27, 2024, in the City of Seaside.

BACKGROUND
National Crime Victims’ Rights Week is April 21-27, 2024. City of Seaside is commemorating this important awareness week with a proclamation to encourage members of the community to learn how to help survivors.

This year’s National Crime Victims’ Rights Week theme is “How would you help? Options, services, and hope for crime survivors.” We must create an environment in which victims and survivors feel safe talking about what happened to them. The theme aims to ensure that everyone in a community knows where and how crime victims and survivors can find help — including friends, family members, colleagues, neighbors, service providers, or other trusted members of the community.

We must all be prepared to offer support. City of Seaside is proud to join the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) and communities throughout the United States during National Crime Victims’ Rights Week in raising awareness of victims’ rights and honoring crime victims and their advocates.

FISCAL IMPACT

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.C.

TO: City Council
FROM: Jaime M. Fontes, City Manager
BY: Melissa Broadston, ESCA Program Manager
DATE: April 18, 2024
SUBJECT: APPROVE ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES COOPERATIVE

AGREEMENT (ESCA) QUARTERLY REPORT

RECOMMENDATION
Approve report covering activities from January through March 2024 as presented in the agenda packet.

BACKGROUND

BACKGROUND
The Fort Ord Reuse Authority (FORA) officially closed all operations on June 30, 2020.

Prior to sunset, the City of Seaside and FORA entered into a Memorandum of Agreement nominating Seaside as FORA’s Environmental Services Cooperative Agreement (ESCA) Successor-In-Interest (Successor). Seaside is now responsible to perform the remaining Long-Term Obligations (LTO) management responsibilities related to U.S. Army (Army) Munitions and Explosives of Concern (MEC) on ESCA property until June 30, 2028. A summary of the ESCA remediation program to date is provided below. A quarterly report is required to be prepared and submitted to the Army after review and acceptance by the City Council.

FORA ESCA Remediation Program Background:

In 2007, the Army and FORA entered into an agreement for Army-funded ESCA for the removal of remnant MEC on 3,340 acres of the former Fort Ord. Under the ESCA terms, the Army awarded FORA approximately $98 million to perform Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) MEC cleanup on those parcels. FORA also entered into the Administrative Order on Consent (AOC) with Packet Page 25

Item No. 8.C. Page 2 of 5
the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and California Department of Toxic Substance Control (DTSC) (collectively referred to as regulatory agencies) defining FORA’s contractual conditions to complete the Army remediation obligations for the “ESCA parcels.” FORA received ESCA property ownership after EPA approval and gubernatorial concurrence under a Finding of Suitability for Early Transfer in 2009.

The ESCA properties received Records of Decision (ROD) documenting controls required to protect public health and safety and Land Use Control Implementation Plan (LUCIP) / Operation and Maintenance Plan (OMP) implementation, operation and maintenance ROD controls tailored to individual site conditions and historic MEC use. The final ESCA LUCIP/OMP documents were accepted by the Army and Regulators in February 2019.

These ESCA properties received the last EPA Remedial Action Completion letter in February 2019. The EPA issued a site-wide ESCA remedial completion certificate in April 2020.

Remedial Action Completion initiated the Army's long-term obligations on ESCA properties. To complete the ESCA and the AOC obligations, the Successor, Seaside, is required to complete a truncated series of tasks until the expiration in 2028 to include site investigation and monitoring, ensuring compliance with the land use controls for ESCA parcels by land holding jurisdictions, mitigation, monitoring, reporting for any potential or found munitions and explosives of concern, and public information and outreach regarding land use. Should any instances of MEC occur, the contractors of Arcadis, Inc., Weston Solutions, Inc. and Westcliffe Engineers, Inc. will assist with providing LTO support services.

ESCA QUARTERLY UPDATE
Jurisdiction Coordination:

ESCA property could not be transferred to the jurisdictions until Army deed modifications and issuance of the Army CERCLA Warranties/Deed Amendments were completed. The ESCA property Army CERCLA Warranty and Deed modification documents were signed by FORA at Army Headquarters in Washington, D.C. and Recorded in Monterey County on June 26, 2020. The receiving jurisdictions signed and recorded these deeds and have final ownership of their ESCA properties. Seaside worked with the Army to transfer Parcel L36—which is located within Campus Town Phase 2. This transfer was completed in March. Work continues to transfer the three remaining Economic Development Conveyance parcels from Army ownership: MontereySalinas Transit Parcels L2.3 and L2.4.1 and Seaside Parcel E20c.1.

Seaside continues work with the City of Monterey to complete the transfer of parcel E29b.3.1. During a recent file review, it was determined that this parcel was not transferred by FORA and is currently held by Seaside as successor to FORA.

Coordination with the Monterey County Assessor’s Office, Monterey County Health Department, and jurisdictions continues for corrections in the Geographic Information System data and land use control data.

Packet Page 26

Item No. 8.C. Page 3 of 5
ESCA staff continues to host quarterly LTO Management, and Property, Planning, Police, and Property Manager meetings with all land holding jurisdictions and the Army to discuss and review projects, or other activities as outlined by the LUCIPs.

ESCA continued work with Monterey County and various jurisdictions and agencies for a smooth completion of data collection and subsequent development of the FY23-24 Annual Land Use Control Report. As noted above, ESCA continues to work closely with Monterey County’s Geographic Information Staff (GIS) to ensure that all remaining data corrections are made prior to the next (December 1, 2024) Land Use Control report submission. ESCA provided jurisdictions with GIS data that they can download to their phone to better assist with onsite parcel and land use control verification. This assistance continues to be offered as new staff members on-board.

ESCA coordination related to the revision of the Construction Support Plan for the Seaside storm water infiltration system installation/repair project is still in progress.

ESCA will provide the required After Action Reports for two ongoing projects (Monterey One Water pipeline Phase 4 and the California Central Coast Veteran’s Cemetery appreciation wall) upon project completion. ESCA prepared and coordinated notifications for a two-part intrusive project in the Monterey County-owned portion of Parker Flats for (1) installation of foundation for portable toilets and (2) installation of a privacy fence around the toilets. Notifications are required when the intrusive work doesn’t exceed 10 cubic yards in a location with a low probability of munitions. These projects were completed in March. No munitions were encountered.

Based on the history of the former Fort Ord as an Army base, munitions may be encountered during reuse of the property. ESCA outreach specific to the munitions safety awareness class at FortOrdSafety.com serves as an important resource to remind community members who might discover suspicious objects to follow the 3Rs of explosives safety – Recognize, Retreat, and Report. ESCA is responsible for the maintenance and participant tracking for the English and Spanish version of the free online training class at FortOrdSafety.com. The training at FortOrdSafety.com supplements and compliments the Army’s on-site munitions safety training program as an important community asset for the use of the lands of the former Fort Ord. Participation for this training remains robust. In January, ESCA sent the annual reminder to take the munitions recognition safety training class to key municipalities, agencies, property owners, and contractors with possible intrusive activities on Fort Ord ESCA lands. ESCA participated in the munitions safety tailgate “kick-off” meetings for the California Central Coast Veteran’s Cemetery Appreciation Wall and the Monterey One Water projects.

The ESCA team continues to conduct weekly patrols of Seaside’s ESCA properties and bi-weekly patrols of other ESCA properties. ESCA patrols also included debris removal.

ESCA provided program updates at the Army’s BRAC Cleanup Team meeting dedicated Packet Page 27

Item No. 8.C. Page 4 of 5
to munitions on January 25, 2023. ESCA also participated in the Army’s Community Involvement Workshop with a recorded ESCA update posted at FortOrdCleaunup.com and another ESCA update for the Army’s Technical Review Committee on February 13, 2024. ESCA also hosted the quarterly long term management update meeting on February 21, 2024.

NEXT QUARTER GOALS
During the next quarter, the ESCA Program will be focusing on the following tasks. • ESCA will participate in Seaside's April 21, 2024, Earth Day event to remind Fort Ord recreational enthusiasts to be mindful of munitions recogintion safety as they enjoy the lands of the former Fort Ord.

ESCA will continue coordination supporting completion of property transfers. • ESCA will also continue coordination with jurisdictions and extensive public outreach on the Munitions Recognition and Safety Training which is available at FortOrdSafety.com.
• ESCA will continue weekly inspection and monitoring of activities on ESCA lands. • ESCA will continue follow-up of incidents of concern. • ESCA will offer “refresher” training to Monterey Peninsula Parks District. • ESCA will continue assistance and coordination with munitions documentation such as After Action Reports, Construction Support Plans, and notifications for projects located in ESCA properties with soil disturbances of less than 10 cubic yards with low probability of encountering munitions.
• ESCA will assist other jurisdictions with questions related to ESCA land use controls. • Finally, ESCA will launch a “read your deeds” campaign with the other jurisdictions to ensure that the information and parcel boundaries are correctly reflected in the County’s GIS databases.

FISCAL IMPACT
Fiscal Impact: None. The actual cost to Seaside of these Army obligations will be fully reimbursed.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.D.

TO: City Council
FROM: Jaime M. Fontes, City Manager
BY: Dan Meewis, Recreation Director
DATE: April 18, 2024
SUBJECT: APPROVE A FEE WAIVER FROM THE VILLAGE PROJECT INC

FOR THE USE OF THE LAGUNA GRANDE HALL AND KITCHEN
FOR THEIR MAE C. JOHNSON EDUCATION & CULTURAL

ENRICHMENT ACADEMY CELEBRATION OF EXCELLENCE EVENT
ON MAY 17, 2024

RECOMMENDATION
Approve a fee waiver request from The Village Project Inc. in the amount of $506.25 for the use of Laguna Grande Hall and Kitchen for their Mae C. Johnson Education & Cultural Enrichment Academy Celebration of Excellence Event.

BACKGROUND
The Village Project is requesting a fee waiver for the use of Laguna Grande Hall and kitchen for their Celebration of Excellence for the students at their Mae C. Johnson After-School Academy. At the end of each school year since its inception, the AfterSchool Academy has hosted an event that honors the achievements of the students who finish their program. The vast majority of these students become academic achievers for the first time as a result of this program. They are rewarded each year with certificates from various elected officials from our region, which include the Mayor, County Supervisor, and State Senator.

This event has been held annually at the Oldemeyer Center and all fees were waived in the past. Staff recommends that the organization provide the non-refundable portion of the maintenance deposit and provide insurance coverage for the event. Those fees are deposited into the janitorial and maintenance fund to pay for the costs associated with the upkeep and maintenance of the facility.

FISCAL IMPACT
Packet Page 30

Item No. 8.D. Page 2 of 2
Should the City Council approve the request for full fee waivers for the event, the approximate fiscal impact is as follows:

Laguna Grande Hall & Kitchen Rental Fee 9 Hours @ $56.25 $506.25 Non-Refundable Deposit $ 98.25
TOTAL $604.50
Should the City Council approve staff recommendation to waive all rental fees but require payment for the non-refundable deposit only, the fiscal impact is $506.25.

DATE: April 18, 2024
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A $40,000.00 BUDGET

AMENDMENT FROM THE PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PROJECT

TO THE BROADWAY AVENUE CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENTS

PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICE

AGREEMENT WITH WALLACE GROUP FOR DESIGN PLAN

REVIEW SERVICES FOR THE BROADWAY AVENUE COMPLETE

STREETS CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT FOR AN
AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $32,280.00

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving a $40,000.00 budget amendment from the Pavement Management Project to the Broadway Avenue Corridor Improvements Project and authorizing the City Manager to execute the professional services agreement with Wallace Group to perform plan review services for the Broadway Avenue Complete Street Corridor Improvements Project.

BACKGROUND
In 2020, the City applied for and received grant funds from the Active Transportation Program and the Regional Surface Transportation Program for the design and construction of the Broadway Complete Street Corridor Improvements Project (Project).

The Project will implement a road diet on Broadway Avenue from Fremont Boulevard to General Jim Boulevard, reducing Broadway Avenue from a 4 lane roadway to a 2 lane roadway with curb extensions, bike lanes, roundabouts, and crosswalks. Improvements on Yosemite Street will be bicycle pavement markings and signage.

Kimley-Horn and Associates (KHA) was selected through a competitive Request for Proposal process to obtain Project Approval, prepare Environmental Documents, and to Packet Page 43

Item No. 8.E. Page 2 of 3
prepare the Plans, Specifications, and Estimate for the Project. On September 23, 2023, the City Council approved a professional service agreement with KHA to design and prepare Project bid documents. KHA recently completed the 30% design plans.

At the time the City applied for the Project grants, it was not anticipated city funds would be needed for the Project. Due to the timing, size, and complexity of the Project, the City does not have the staffing resources to perform design plan review. Staff requested a proposal for design plan review services from Wallace Group (Wallace), a firm identified on the city's on call list for engineering design services. Wallace's proposal for plan review services includes plan review for the 60%, 95%, and 100% plan submittal progress milestones. Staff negotiated the professional services agreement scope and fee with Wallace that is presented here for consideration. Each plan review will take 3–4 weeks after receipt of plans and required documents. The proposed agreement value is within an acceptable limit anticipated for a project of this magnitude.

FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed professional service agreement is for $32,280.00. The Broadway Avenue Complete Street Corridor Improvements Project is identified in the FY 2023/2024 Adopted Budget. A budget amendment in the amount of $40,000.00 is being requested from the Pavement Management Project (PMP) account (212-8990-9600) to the Broadway Avenue Corridor Improvements Project account (212-8950-9600). There are sufficient funds in the PMP account to accommodate the budget amendment being requested. The PMP is an ongoing program that must be evaluated and updated every three years in order to be eligible for Measure X funds. The PMP is scheduled to be evaluated next fiscal year, so the funds for the project are not needed this fiscal year.

It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution approving a $40,000.00 budget amendment from the Pavement Management Project account (212-8990-9600) to the Broadway Avenue Corridor Improvements Project account (212-8950-9600) and authorizing the City Manager to execute a professional services agreement with Wallace Group for design plan review services for the Broadway Avenue Complete Streets Corridor Improvements Project for an amount not to exceed $32,280.00 and written amendments such that the total agreement does not exceed $40,000.00.

City of Seaside
440 Harcourt Avenue
Seaside, California 93955
Subject: Broadway Ave. Complete Street Plan Checking
Dear Ms. Llantero:

Wallace Group appreciates the opportunity to provide you with our proposal for Civil and Transportation Engineering services for the above referenced project.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Seaside is implementing a road diet on Broadway Avenue from Fremont Boulevard to General Jim Boulevard. This project, called the Broadway Complete Streets Corridor Improvements Project, includes the reduction of Broadway from a 4-lane roadway to 2-lanes, and the addition of curb extensions, bike lanes, crosswalks, roundabouts, and landscaping.

The City is requesting that Wallace Group provide a design review of the Broadway Avenue Complete Street Corridor Improvements.

A review of the 30% progress submittal set which included 84 plan sheets was completed by others and the next submittal is expected to be at the 60% progress milestone. Wallace Group has assumed that the future submittals will occur at the 90% and 100% progress milestones. The following Scope of Services has been prepared for your consideration.

In addition to the review provided by Wallace Group, the construction documents will also be submitted by others for review by the Division of State Architect (DSA) at the 60% progress level. Our scope below assumes that no major changes will be made to the project as a result of the DSA review.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Task 1: Plan Review of 60% Submittal ($10,560)
Wallace Group will provide review comments on the 60% project plans, technical specifications, and cost estimate. We will provide the City with a comment letter and markups of the submitted documents reviewed. The review will be more focused on concepts and fatal flaws within the design rather than detailed ready for construction plan sheet review.

We will provide the City with a list of additional documents that may be required to complete the review once the full submittal is provided. Wallace Group will attend a meeting (videoconference) with City Staff to discuss the plan check comments.

Task 2: Plan Review of 90% Submittal ($14,380)
Wallace Group will complete a plan check of the 90% submittal (project plans, technical specifications, and cost estimate) which will include response to comments. This plan check will include checking of the drafting content to verify that the project is ready for construction. The fee is based on the engineer providing adequate and complete response to comments on the previous submittal. Wallace Group will attend a meeting (videoconference) with City Staff to discuss the plan check comments.

Task 3: Plan Review of 100% Submittal ($7,340)
Wallace Group will complete a plan check of the 100% submittal (project plans, technical specifications, and cost estimate) which will include response to comments. The fee is based on the engineer providing adequate and complete response to comments on the previous submittal and no major design revisions. Wallace Group will attend a meeting (videoconference) with City Staff to discuss the plan check comments.

Deliverables:
• Comments letter and plan check mark-ups (PDF only)
• Attendance of plan check meetings (videoconference) up to a total of 10 hours

SCHEDULE
Wallace Group will complete the first plan review within 3-4 weeks of receiving the Notice to Proceed and all documents are received for City review. Wallace Group will complete the 90% plan review and 100% plan review within 3-4 weeks of receipt of each complete submittal package. The attached project schedule provided by Client indicates submittal of the 60% plans, specifications and estimate package in April 2024 with the 90% submittal in August 2024, followed by the 100% submittal in December 2024. The project is expected to be published for bidding in June 2025 with the start of construction scheduled for September 2025.

TO BE PROVIDED BY THE CLIENT
• Site Plan
• Grading Plan
• Underground Utility Plans
• Erosion and Sediment Control Plans

Enforcement of contract provisions (non estoppel). Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the Agency to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the Agency nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type.

Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the Agency.

endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to Agency and approved of in writing.

Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that Consultant’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.

Pass through clause. Consultant agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in the project will be submitted to Agency for review.

Agency’s right to revise specifications. The Agency reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the Agency and Consultant may renegotiate Consultant’s compensation.

Self-insured retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by Agency. Agency reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible.

DATE: April 18, 2024
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING AMENDMENT #5 TO THE

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH KIMLEY-HORN

AND ASSOCIATES EXTENDING THE TERM DATE AND

MODIFYING THE SCOPE OF SERVICES (THIS ADDITION TO THE
AGENDA OCCURED AFTER THE 72 HOUR POSTING DEADLINE, A
2/3 MAJORITY VOTE IS REQUIRED TO ADD THIS ITEM TO THE

AGENDA)

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment #5 to the Professional Services Agreement (PSA) to provide additional subconsultant services and management services for the Campus Town project, and amending the term of the PSA.

BACKGROUND
In early 2022, the City hired Kimley-Horn and Associates (Kimley-Horn) to provide project management and other services to support the Campus Town Project. Most of the support was for plan review or project management to support the developer KB Homes and the Bakewell Development Company (KB-B), and was reimbursed by the developer. Some work was to support the City’s obligations for the transfer of property to KB-B, which was being reimbursed by the City. As part of the City work, Kimley Horn hired subconsultants to assist in the preparation of regulatory documents to confirm the safe reuse of the site.

There were several amendments to the professional services agreement with KimleyHorn, the last being Amendment #4 to the PSA which increased the total PSA amount by $607,644.44 to include, and to amend the end date of the PSA to April 30, 2024, for a total PSA of $1,162,844.44.

Packet Page 78

Item No. 8.F. Page 2 of 2
The intention was to have three new PSAs: two with Kimley-Horn (one for work reimbursed by the developer and one for work reimbursed by the City) and a new contract with Geosyntec. Staff is not able to develop the new PSAs and obtain Council approval before its end date of April 30, 2024. To have continuity of services for the Campus Town project, we are requesting that the PSA be amended with an end date of June 30, 2024, and that the Council authorize a minor amendment to the subconsultant, Geosyntec’s scope to provide additional services based on comments from the regulatory agency. We do not anticipate any changes to the budgeted amount of the contract.

FISCAL IMPACT
Amendment #5 to the PSA with Kimley-Horn to support the Campus Town project will not amend the contract amount, and therefore, will not have a fiscal impact.

2 Q2 FY 2022-23 FINANCIAL REPORT

INTRODUCTION
This is the second quarterly report for Fiscal Year 2023- 24, and comprises results for the six month period
ending December 31, 2023. While a few other notable
funds are reviewed, this report focuses primarily on the City’s general fund. General Fund operating revenues
and expenditures as compared to previous years and/or
budget are presented, and any notable changes or
trends in these numbers are explained. The report is
presented on a cash basis, which means that revenues
are recognized at the time revenues are received and
expenditures are recognized at the time payment is
processed. The City does not accrue any revenues or
expenditures in the first quarter.

The purpose of this report is twofold. First, it ensures that the City is consistently monitoring its revenues and expenditures so that it may proactively respond to
unanticipated changes or emerging trends. Second, and
equally important, consistent reporting increases the
transparency of the City’s finances. Quarterly reporting provides the City Council, City Administration, taxpayers and ratepayers with information that demonstrates the
City is meeting this standard.

The information in this report is the most accurate and up-to-date information available at the time of

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
In March of 2020, the City declared a local emergency in response to the COVID-19 worldwide pandemic. The
ensuing statewide shelter in place orders coupled with
various levels of “reopening” created financial turmoil in the fourth quarter of FY 2019-20 and throughout FY
2021-22.

Throughout the pandemic the economy performed
surprisingly well due to two prime factors; the
development and distribution of a vaccine for the virus and federal stimulus dollars. California declared an end to the COVID-19 State of Emergency on February 28,
2023.

NATIONAL & STATE ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
Hdl (The City’s revenue enhancement consultant)
reports the national economy grew 2.5% in FY22-23,
and projects it will remain flat in FY 23-24. FY 24-25 is expected to slow further to 1.9%.
• California’s unemployment rate is expected
to remain low at 4.7% in FY 23-24 before
climbing slightly to 5.0% in FY 24-25.
• Statewide Sales & Use Tax growth is expected
to turn negative in FY 23-24 at -0.2% before
swinging back positive in FY 24-25 at 2.1%.
• California’s median existing home price is
expected to increase from $697k in FY 23-24
to $724k in FY 24-25.

During the pandemic the Federal Government passed
and implemented five economic stimulus packages
totaling approximately $6 trillion. The Federal Reserve also lowered the Federal Funds rate to between 0% and
.25%. In many ways the federal stimulus may have
slowed the economic damage caused by the health and
safety response to the pandemic and stabilized the
economy. On the other hand, the vigorous amounts of
stimulus coupled with supply chain bottlenecks appear
to have contributed to rising inflation. Late in 2021 and early in 2022, many economists believed inflation would be short lived and come as a result of supply chain
bottlenecks and staffing shortages, which would recede
with time. That prediction did not prove correct, as
inflation remained unsustainably high throughout 2022
and much of 2023. Faced with sustained inflation, the
Federal Reserve responded with increases to the Federal Funds Rate, which generally speaking has a cooling effect on inflation. Beginning March 17, 2022 the Federal
Reserves raised rates eleven times; from .25% to 5.5%.

The 12-month increase in CPI (indicator of inflation) as of September 2022, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics was 8.2%. It appears that rate increases have had the desired effect, with the increase in CPI dropping Packet Page 88

CITY OF SEASIDE
3 Q2 FY 2022-23 FINANCIAL REPORT
to 3.4% as of December 2023. While this is certainly
good news, the traditional target rate for inflation is 2%, which indicates we are still in a high inflationary period.

While the risk of a recession has decreased somewhat,
many economists still believe a recession is possible in the first half of 2024. It remains to be seen, if, how long, and how severe a potential recession will be or if the
economy will make the so-called “soft landing”.

LOCAL ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
At the local level, the City of Seaside unemployment rate steadily decreased since reaching a high mark of 19.0%
in April of 2020 and reaching a low point of 2.5% in
September of 2022. As of December of 2023 the rate is

3.1%.

The City of Seaside unexpectedly experienced strong
results in several business sectors thoughout the
pandemic, including Auto Sales, Online Sales, and
Building and Construction Materials. Historically, sales tax from Auto Sales have accounted for approximately
41% of the City’s Sales Tax total and 16% of the General Fund revenue total. In a potential recession, revenue
losses in this sector could have a substantial impact on the City’s finances.

Not all sectors of the local economy, however, fared as well. One major sector of Seaside’s local economy is
based on tourism. Early in the pandemic the the local
Hotel Tax (Transient Occupancy Tax) dropped off severly due to shelter in place orders. Beginning in June of 2021, however, this sector experienced some much needed
relief. TOT collections showed strong signs of recovery throughout the 2021 Summer months and again in the
2022 and 2023 Summer months. From a pandemic era
low of $2.1 million in fiscal year 20-21, this sector ended fiscal year 22-23 at approximately $3.4 million. By way of comparison, fiscal year 18-19 (the most recent “nonpandemic” fiscal year) generated $3.4 million in hotel tax. Fiscal year 2023-24 TOT promises to continue
growing, albeit somewhat less than origianally forecast.

City staff will continue to monitor and report City
financial health to the City Administration, City Council and Public, as well as monitoring the Federal Reserve ‘s and the Federal Government’s efforts to reduce inflation and avoid or lessen the impacts of a potential recession.

Staff recommends that the City remain flexible should
conditions require action as the year progresses. A
clearer picture of the City’s finacial outlook is likely to emerge as the budget process for fiscal year 2024-25
progresses.

Q2 GENERAL FUND REVENUES:

Total budgeted revenue for FY 2023-24 including one-time sales and transfers is $46.3M. Revenues are projected to end the year at $46.8 million; an increase of $500k over budget.

The following table and chart compares Q2 results for FY24 with Q2 results for FY22 and FY23. As can be seen in the table, revenues through the second quarter totaled $22.8M which is 6% or $1.4M higher than the second quarter of the previous year and 12% or $2.4M higher than FY22. The $22.8M equals 49% of total budgeted revenue. Similarly, though the second quarter of the previous year the City had realized 48% of total budgeted revenue. This indicates that the City’s revenues are on target with the budget.

7 Q2 FY 2022-23 FINANCIAL REPORT
DISCUSSION OF SIGNIFICANT EXPENDITURE VARIANCES BY TYPE:
 Personnel Services
Personnel Services were similar to results at mid-year in the previous fiscal year. The results were somewhat higher mostly due to cost of living adjustments and increases in pension costs. Total cost was $15.8M compared to $14.8M a year earlier. Personnel services are expected to produce the greatest year end variance at $2.6M. In the first half of the year, 15 positions were recruited and filled.

On the other hand, 14 positions terminated for various reasons.  Services & Supplies
At the mid-point of the year, Services and supplies were up 48% on a year over year basis but only 1% over budget. The majority of the year over year variance is related to the purchase of recycled water for use on the City’s golf course.
 Capital Outlay – Projects
Capital outlay and projects were udown $2.8M over the previous fiscal year almost entirely due to the prior year purchase of two parcels of land – on Del Monte Avenue and Canyon Del Rey Boulevard.

EXPENDITURES BY DEPARTMENT:

As can be seen in the table above, nearly all departments were under budget through the second quarter of the year. Human Resources was over budget due to the re-classification of two positions and increased investigations costs. The recreation department was over budget due to over hiring of part-time seasonal staff. The over-hiring situation has been addressed and should improve as the year progresses.

GENERAL FUND NET RESULTS & BUDGET OUTLOOK:

Overall, the first half of the year showed expenditures of $22.9M (44% of the annual budget) in comparison with revenues of $22.8M (49.2% of the annual budget). Projected results are as follows:

As can be seen, results at the mid-year indicate that the ongoing operations of the City are expected to continue producing positive financial results. An operating surplus in the amount of $3.3 million is expected by year end. Any remaining operating surplus will be applied to the Capital Budget, thereby reducing the amount by which fund balance is expended.

Some insights may be gained at the mid-year budget review:
• Revenues remain strong but have begun to flatten out. • Sales and Use Tax is beginning to flatten (auto sales in particular). • Marijuana Receipts tax have decreased.
• Personnel costs are up but expected to produce a variance due to difficulty in hiring and retaining police officers and maintenance workers.

Headwinds:
• The nation continues to see inflation above the 2% target rate. • PERS unfunded liabilities continue to grow.
• The state budget is expected to move into a deficit which will impact grants received by the City. • Geopolitical unrest continues.

OTHER FUNDS
In addition to the General Fund, the budget includes funds from a range of restricted sources as well as businesstype activities that are used to provide specific services, including:

WATER FUND:

The Water Enterprise Fund appears to be functioning as designed. Recent rate increases have greatly increased revenues putting the enterprise in a much better position. Per the City’s approved rate structure, rates increased 15% on January 1, 2022. There were no rate increases on January 1, 2023. A new rate study is under way however, and the Utility hopes to have new rates approved by the ratepayers and Council in time for the fiscal year 2024-25 budget. The system has significant capital costs on the horizon since a second well is needed.

STORM WATER FUND:

The Storm Water fund expenditures through the first two quarters were $639k. Storm Water costs were $49k lower than the same quarter of the previous year, mainly due to work the fluctuating nature of capital improvement work. The fund appears to be trending within budget for both capital and operating.

Currently the primary source of funding for the Storm Water fund is the City’s General Fund. City staff continues to seek grant funding when available as well.

CITY OF SEASIDE

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 9.B.

TO: City Council
FROM: Jaime M. Fontes, City Manager
BY: Dominique Davis, City Clerk
DATE: April 18, 2024
SUBJECT: CONSIDER A BALLOT QUESTION AND MEASURE REGARDING

THE PROHIBITION OF SAFE AND SANE FIREWORKS, AND

ADOPT A RESOLUTION FOR THE HOLDING OF A

CONSOLIDATED GENERAL MUNICIPAL ELECTION ON TUESDAY,
NOVEMBER 5, 2024

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution for the holding of a consolidated general municipal election and for the submission of a question regarding fireworks to qualified voters.

BACKGROUND
At the October 5, 2023, City Council meeting, a request was made by Council Member Miller which proposed that the City Council consider a measure relating to fireworks on the November 2024 general election ballot. Subsequently, on October 19, 2023, the Council agreed that an item should be placed on a future agenda to discuss and consider a city-sponsored ballot measure regarding the future use, sale and possession of safe and sane fireworks in the city for the November 2024 election.

At the March 7, 2024, City Council meeting, the City Council received a report and presentation regarding the process for placing a question on the ballot and directed staff to return with proposed language for the question and a draft resolution that, if adopted, should be transmitted to the Monterey County Elections Department. The Council also determined that the voter approval requirement would be set as a majority vote.

Currently, Chapter 8.32 Fireworks, of the Seaside Municipal Code, currently bans fireworks at all times of the year except for the sale, use and possession of safe and sane fireworks from June 28 to July 5. The current code also allows for public Packet Page 101

Item No. 9.B. Page 2 of 4
displays, agricultural and wildlife fireworks and model rockets as permitted.

The proposed language of the ballot question is to repeal and replace the current ordinance with a ban, with exceptions only for public display and special events, agricultural and wildlife fireworks, and model rockets. The repeal and replace process was chosen, instead of an amendment process, because it provides more clarity than amending Chapter 8.32 with strike out and underline.

The below options were presented for Council consideration at the March 21 meeting:

Option 1 presented on March 21, 2024:

YES

SEASIDE FIREWORKS BAN
Shall the measure of the City of Seaside's Fireworks Ordinance (set forth in Chapter 8.32 of the Seaside Municipal Code) be repealed and replaced with a new Chapter 8.32 to prohibit the use, sale and discharge of all fireworks everywhere in the City at all times unless the fireworks are part of a public display or otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 8.32.040 of the Seaside Municipal Code? NO

Option 2 presented on March 21, 2024:

YES

SEASIDE FIREWORKS BAN
Shall the measure of the City of Seaside to adopt a new Fireworks Ordinance to prohibit the use, sale and discharge of all fireworks everywhere in the City at all times unless the fireworks are part of a public display or otherwise permitted?
NO
At the March 21, 2024, City Council meeting, a presentation was provided that reviewed the two aforementioned ballot questions. The Council discussed the options, and received public comment. As a result of the discussion and public comment, the Council expressed its desire to ensure the term "safe and sane" was included in the final wording of the question, and that the question be mandatory so that the voters' voice would be binding and written into the laws of the City as such. Presented below are options that the Council can consider for the final wording of the question to be placed on the ballot for voters.

Option 3 – suggested during public comment:

YES

SEASIDE SAFE AND SANE FIREWORKS BAN
Shall the measure allow the sale, purchase, possession, storage and use of all fireworks to be prohibited in the City of Seaside? NO While this option has minimal wording, it includes conflicting information in that it “allows” and then “prohibits” all fireworks and does not use the words “safe and sane” Packet Page 102

Item No. 9.B. Page 3 of 4
in the ballot question, which could be clearer. Additionally, the measure is not defined.

Option 4 – suggested during public comment:

YES

SEASIDE SAFE AND SANE FIREWORKS BAN
Shall the measure prohibit the sale, purchase, possession, storage and use of all fireworks in the City of Seaside? NO
This option is clearer in that it uses only the word “prohibit”. However, it also includes reference to the measure but does not explicitly define what the “measure” is. The measure reference should be the repeal and replacement of Chapter 8.32 of the city’s municipal code.

Option 5 – suggested by written public comment:

SEASIDE SAFE AND SANE FIREWORKS BAN
Shall an ordinance of the City of Seaside to repeal the existing fireworks ordinance (set forth in Chapter 8.32 of the Seaside Municipal Code) and enact a new fireworks' ordinance that prohibits the possession, use, sale and discharge of all fireworks, including State Fire Marshall-approved safe and sane fireworks, be adopted? YES
The wording of this question satisfies the requirements to legally bind the voice of the voters for adoption into the municipal code. However, staff recommends removing the reference to the State Fire Marshall.

Option 6:

SEASIDE SAFE AND SANE FIREWORKS BAN
Shall Ordinance ___, an ordinance of the City Council of the City of Seaside, repealing and replacing Chapter 8.32 of the Seaside Municipal Code to prohibit the sale, purchase, possession, storage and use of all fireworks, including safe and sane fireworks, be adopted?
YES
Staff recommends the approval and adoption of a resolution with the question posed in option 6 which includes the language regarding prohibition details to include sale, purchase, possession, storage and use of all fireworks; the repeal and replacement of Chapter 8.32 of the Seaside Municipal Code.

The citizens' vote of yes or no is defined as follows:

YES: a “yes” vote means that Ordinance XXX would be enacted and the City’s existing Packet Page 103

Item No. 9.B. Page 4 of 4
regulations would be amended to prohibit the possession, sale, storage or use of “safe and sane” fireworks in the City.

NO: a “no” vote means that Ordinance XXX would not be enacted and the sale and use of “safe and sane” fireworks would continue to be allowed in the City.

Based upon public comment, the resolution has been modified and staff is recommending text language for the ordinance which preserves the flexibility of the City Council to make appropriate administrative modifications to the Ordinance. The Ordinance language as presented:
• Definitions - Removes Citation process from definitions • Bans all fireworks, including safe and sane fireworks • Except public display, agricultural-wildlife and model rockets as permitted • City council Discretion on what to include and when to require Operation Plan and After-Action reports
• Allows more flexibility for the City to change citations and administration Once a ballot measure is submitted to voters to approve or deny, and is approved by the voters, any subsequent changes to the ordinance can only be made by a vote of the people. The target for finalizing the question and measuring language is no later than May 16, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT
None.

Packet Page 112
C. The remedies set forth in this chapter are in addition to all other legal and equitable remedies, administrative, criminal or civil, that may be pursued by the city to address violations of this chapter including, as an alternative to the issuance of an administrative fine pursuant to this section, and in his or her sole discretion, the city attorney may criminally prosecute a violation of this chapter.

D. Administrative fines collected pursuant to this section and related to dangerous fireworks shall not be subject to the restrictions of California Health and Safety Code Sections 12500 through 12759; however, the city shall provide cost reimbursement to the state fire marshal pursuant to regulations adopted by the state fire marshal addressing the state fire marshal’s cost for the transportation and disposal of dangerous fireworks seized by the city, which costs will be part of any administrative fine imposed.

E. Because of the serious threat of fire or injury posed by the use of “dangerous fireworks” that can result from persistent or repeated failures to comply with the provisions of this code and the effect of such conditions or activities on the safety and the use and enjoyment of surrounding properties and to the public health, safety and welfare, this chapter imposes strict civil liability upon the owners of residential real property for all violations of this code existing on their residential real property.

SECTION 3. Severability. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause phrase or portion of this Ordinance is for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remaining portions of this Ordinance shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect. The People of the City of Seaside, California, hereby declare that they would have adopted each section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Ordinance irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions of this Ordinance be declared invalid or unenforceable.

Packet Page 113

CITY OF SEASIDE

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 9.C.

TO: City Council
FROM: Jaime M. Fontes, City Manager
BY: Dan Meewis, Recreation Director
DATE: April 18, 2024
SUBJECT: RECEIVE A PRESENTATION AND CONSIDER ADOPTING A

RESOLUTION APPROVING THE CITY OF SEASIDE PARKS AND

RECREATION MASTER PLAN

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the Parks and Recreation Master Plan prepared by Conservation Technix.

BACKGROUND
On January 30, 2023, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing the City manager to enter into an agreement with Conservation Technix to complete the Parks and Recreation Master Plan with the goal of developing a community-supported plan that provides guidance for future development of the City's recreation facilities and programs. The Master Plan will guide policy development, prioritize demands and opportunities, and generate a strategic action plan that should be updated every five to ten years. The plan will seek to incorporate energy efficient strategies and environmental remediation opportunities, and will include elements that ensure the consideration of racial equity in resource allocation and service development. The last City of Seaside Parks and Recreation Master Plan was completed in 2005.

From March 2023 to February 2024, the City, in collaboration with Conservation Technix, engaged community residents and stakeholders to develop plan content. Over the eleven-month period over 2000 residents and stakeholders participated in an online/paper survey, two community open houses, multiple community meetings and popup events at City-sponsored events and programs and individualized stakeholder meetings. Throughout the community engagement effort, residents and stakeholders were asked to provide their vision for what a vibrant park and recreation system would look like. Residents identified priorities for Seasides' parks, recreation facilities and Packet Page 121

Item No. 9.C. Page 2 of 3
programs. In addition, they also identified a which criterion by which the recommended infrastructure projects could be ranked.

Over the last eleven months, the consultant team has conducted a fell assessment of our facilities to include all parks and recreation facilities. Following this assessment and the community engagement process, the consultant team then proceeded to develop chapter content, key project recommendations, implementation strategies and capital investment plan. The capital investment plan is significant, totaling over $44 million.

Staff received the draft Master Plan in sections for review at the start of 2024, and have been providing comments and feed back as the chapters were submitted to staff. The draft plan was presented to the Parks and Recreation Commission for review and to provide comments at the February 26, 2024, meeting and all the comments from staff and the commission have been included in the final document.

Throughout the Master Plan process, the Recreation Department has coordinated and collaborated with the Public Works and Planning departments, and it shall be included in the City's General Plan update.

Adopting the Parks and Recreation Master Plan supports the City Council's Strategic Priorities of:
• Diverse and Inclusive Community
• Community Safety and Quality of Life

FISCAL IMPACT
The authorized agreement was not to exceed One Hundred Thirty Three Thousand Eight Hundred Eighty dollars ($130,880.00). The consultant has remained on schedule and within the budget that was allocated for the project.

SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 1
Purpose of the Plan
The City of Seaside 2024 Parks and Recreation
Master Plan (PRMP) is an update to the 2005
Parks and Recreation Master Plan that builds on
the previously completed plan and incorporates
the feedback from an extensive community
engagement process conducted in 2023. This
citywide Parks and Recreation Master Plan was
developed with the input and direction of local
residents and guidance by from the Parks and
Recreation Commission. The process included
public meetings and a community survey as
baseline data and as a foundation for plan
recommendations. As a ten-year guide and strategic
plan for enhancing park and recreation amenities
for the community, this Plan creates a vision for an
innovative, inclusive and interconnected system
of parks, trails and open space that promotes
recreation, health, environmental conservation
and fiscal responsibility as integral elements of a
thriving, livable Seaside.

The PRMP serves as a blueprint for the
management, enhancement and growth of the
City of Seaside parks and recreation system. It
assists in guiding decisions related to planning,
developing and maintaining parks, open space
and recreational facilities. This Plan also identifies
priorities for recreation programs, special events
and arts and culture activities.

The 2024 PRMP provides updated system
inventories, community profile, needs analyses
1 OVERVIEW &

INTRODUCTION
and a comprehensive capital project list. The
Plan identifies parks and recreation goals and
establishes a long-range plan for the Seaside parks
and recreation system, including action items
and strategies for implementation over the next
ten years. The recommendations in this Plan are
based on community input, evaluations of the
existing park system, operating conditions and
fiscal considerations.

Planning Process
This PRMP represents the culmination of a yearlong planning effort and reflects the community’s interests and needs for parks, open space, trails
and programming. The planning process, which
included a variety of public outreach activities,
encouraged public engagement to inform
the development of the priorities and future
direction of Seaside’s park and recreation system.

Community members expressed their interests
through surveys, public meetings, stakeholder
discussions, online outreach, tabling events and
Parks and Recreation Commission meetings.

In addition to community engagement, the actions
identified in this Plan are based on:
• An inventory and assessment of the City’s existing
park and recreation facilities to establish the
Packet Page 128
2 SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024
system’s current performance and to identify needed
maintenance, capital repair and replacement
projects;
• Service level and walkability assessments to quantify the system’s ability to serve current and future
residents; and
• Review of on-going and past planning efforts that
guide investments in Seaside’s parks, trails, open
space and programs.

The Plan’s capital improvements section and
accompanying implementation strategies are
intended to sustain and enhance, preserve and
steward the City’s critical parks and recreation
infrastructure.

Park & Recreation System
Overview
Department Organization
The Recreation Department serves as the
community’s key resource for providing parks,
recreation, aquatic facilities and programs, and
community events and supports tourism and
economic development, as well as providing an
enhanced quality of life for its residents. The
Department is responsible for the management of
four major recreation facilities and the provision of
recreation programs for families, youth and older
adults. There are 25 City-owned park sites totaling
110 acres in the Seaside park system. The City also
owns the Bayonet and Black Horse Golf Courses
(360 acres), which is operated and managed by the
Troon Golf. The Recreation Department consists
of 12 full-time employees across multiple focus
areas.
• Administration focuses on long-range planning,
development of park site master plans, development
of park facilities, pursuing partnerships, and
administering grants. Administration provides
overall support for the Department in areas of
budgeting, communications, and customer service,
among others.
• Recreation Services and Centers enables communitywide leisure opportunities including youth and adult sports, community events, youth leadership
programs, summer camps, senior activities and
programs, and community education classes. Staff
supervise recreation program registration, facility
rentals and athletic field rentals. Major recreation
facilities include the Oldemeyer Center, Youth
Education & Resource Center, Soper Fields, and
Soper Community Center
Mission
Providing high-quality park and
recreation facilities, programs,
services and natural areas that
meet the needs of the diverse
community we serve – connecting
people to place, self and others.
• Aquatics staffs the Pattullo Swim Center and offers
fitness, recreational and learn-to-swim programs
for individuals of all ages. Facility amenities include a six-lane swimming pool with water slide and warm
water pool.

Park Operations is managed through the
Maintenance & Utilities Division of the Public
Works Department and is responsible for physical
park asset management and improvements.

Responsibilities include landscaping, ballfield
preparation and maintenance, playground and
sports court safety inspections and repair, trail
maintenance and daily maintenance.

Commission & Community Support
The Recreation Department plays a vital role in
many aspects of community life, with staff support
to the Parks and Recreation Commission, plus
coordination with several other City commissions
and outside agencies.

Recreation and Parks Commission
The Recreation and Parks Commission is an
advisory group to the City Council and provides
input on issues relating to the delivery of parks
and recreation services to Seaside residents. The
Commission recommends policies on recreational
services and facilities and cooperates with other
Packet Page 129
SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 3
agencies and civic groups in the advancement of
park and recreation planning and programming.

Commissioners are appointed by the City Council
for three year terms.

Art & History Commission
Formed in 2010, the seven-member Art and
History Commission advises and facilitates the
protection of the City’s cultural resources including
the collection, promotion, display and preservation
of Seaside historical artifacts, and encourages and
promotes programs of artistic merit. Commission
members serve a four year term.

Blue Ribbon Task Force for the Reduction of
Youth Violence
The Task Force is composed of stakeholders from
various community and government organizations
and aims to stem gang violence in Seaside
by implementing the Seaside Gang Violence
Prevention and Intervention Program. The goals
of the Task Force are to encourage community
mobilization and complete and implement
Comprehensive Youth Violence Reduction Plan to
prevent future youth gang delinquency, crime and
violence.

Recreation Department staff also coordinate
and engage with a variety of commissions and
organizations, including the following:
• City of Seaside Environmental Commission
• City of Seaside Family and Community Support
Program
• Friends of Seaside Park Association (FOSPA)
• Blue Zone Project
• Sustainable Seaside
• Community Partnership for Youth
• Boys & Girls Club
• Palenke Arts
• Building Healthy Communities
• Village Project
Recent Accomplishments
The following represents a short list of the
accomplishments realized following the adoption
of the previous plan.
• Started the Youth Employment Program in 2018,
which was highlighted in the National Recreation
and Park Association’s (NRPA) monthly publication
February 2023.
• Expanded and refreshed recreation program
offerings to add variety and meet community
interests.

• Renovated Ellis Park.
• Upgraded the recreation registration software
program.

Current Challenges &
Future Considerations
As with any citywide strategic planning effort,
current community challenges provide a context
for developing and assessing strategies for the
future. The following macrotrends are anticipated
to be important priorities over the next decade.

Equity, Inclusivity & Accessibility
Maintaining and enhancing social equity across
recreational opportunities and facilities should be
a core function of municipal park and recreation
systems. Through this Plan, the City of Seaside
made a concerted effort to reach out to, connect
with, and engage a diversity of local communities.

The City endeavored to make all voices welcome
during the PRMP process, including through a
dual language (English and Spanish) community
survey. A focus on diversity, equity and inclusion
also carries into adaptive recreation programs
and ongoing accessibility upgrades of parks and
amenities. The City must continue to find ways to
provide safe and equitable access to parks, trails,
facilities, recreation programs and other services.

Further, portions of the City’s parks, trails and
open space system were developed before
the 1999 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
was implemented. The conditions assessment
identified several deficiencies related to ADA
compliance. The City must continue to find ways to
provide safe and equitable access to parks, trails,
open space areas, facilities, recreation programs
and other services.

4 SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024
Continued Investments in the Park &
Recreation System
From accessible playgrounds to splash pads to
bike skill areas to bouldering, the range of play
experiences offered by the City will need to change
and diversify over time. Also, the diversity of the
Seaside community will influence the needs for
different or expanded recreational experiences,
such as extended family gatherings, community
events and social activities, and cultural arts, among
others. The demand for new amenities also must
be balanced against preserving and maintaining
existing parks and natural areas. The development
of new amenities may require the use or re-use
of existing parkland or more parkland may be
required to support the community’s evolving,
future needs.

Research on recreation also provides information
on how park distribution, park proximity, park
facilities and conditions have an impact on people’s
desire to engage in physical activity. It may be
valuable to re-evaluate current park designs and
maintenance policies to ensure barrier-free,
engaging park environments and operational
efficiencies. The City will continue to play a major
role in enabling healthy lifestyles for the Seaside
community and should continue to enhance the
park system and recreation program offerings.

Asset Management & Aging Infrastructure
The City of Seaside’s parks, trails and open space
system is facing numerous challenges related to
aging infrastructure. Deferred maintenance and
changing demands translate to the need for upto-date assessments of the condition, function and quality of park system assets, in addition to
understanding where deficiencies may exist. Park
aesthetics and amenities are important to usage
patterns. Also, a user’s perception of personal
safety is a determining factor in how one uses and
feels in and around parks, trails and open spaces.

Seaside’s 2005 Parks & Recreation Master Plan
identified numerous deficits and improvement
needs that were not addressed for over a decade;
however, the City park system has been undergoing
significant upgrades, new development and
renovations in the last five years. Parks that were
constructed in the late 1960’s on the eastern
hillside within the Seaside Municipal Water System
service area had old park amenities removed as
aging triggered failures, but no new amenities were
provided. Once grass lawn irrigation restrictions
further impacted those parks, non-native weed
growth took over. There is still much to be done.

Established park systems require ongoing
maintenance in order to safely and effectively
serve the community. Public recreation providers
across the country consider maintaining existing
park facilities to be a key management issue.

Poorly maintained assets – from benches to
playgrounds to pools – can fail, either structurally
or operationally, posing safety risks and reducing
Packet Page 131
SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 5
their recreational value. Aging infrastructure
also may fail to meet community expectations
or need capital upgrades to adapt to changing
community interests. However, recreation
providers often struggle to establish adequate
funding mechanisms for routine and preventative
maintenance and repair of facilities, as well as the
major rehabilitation of existing outdoor recreation
facilities at the end of their useful life.

In addition to aging infrastructure requiring removal
of recreational amenities and park features, the
effects of restricted irrigation has taken its toll. The City of Seaside is served by three different water
providers: Marine Coast Water District, Seaside
Municipal Water System, and California American
Water. Each provider has its own rate system and
policies for water usage. Due to water restrictions
and water storage capacity, the Seaside Municipal
Water System required the City to stop irrigating
grass in parks within its service area. The visual
change in landscape character is distinctive. The
perception of neglect and minimal greenspace
became predominant in those older parks on the
hillside. Park improvements have been slowing
working to address the deficits identified in the
2005 PRMP Plan. More work is needed to address
removed park amenities and to determine the best
landscape approach for parks without irrigated
grass areas. Policies and practices regarding water
conservation and public greenspaces need to
work together to provide the outdoor recreational
and environmental values desired by Seaside’s
residents.

The conditions assessment of the Seaside parks,
trails and open space areas included in this PRMP
(see Appendix E) provided a baseline of current
conditions to inform the development of the
capital project list and implementation strategies.

The fiscal needs of the parks system are substantial
and long-term funding strategies are needed.

Climate Vulnerability, Adaptation, &
Resilience
Regional climate change models project that
the Central Coast will see increasing maximum
and minimum temperatures through the next
century, with greater increases in the inland
region. Also, coastal wave events in combination
with rising sea levels will drive coastal flooding
landward, increasing the region’s vulnerability.1
Enhancing native vegetation, planting more trees,
reducing energy and water use, and finding more
sustainable materials to use in construction of
park amenities will play a role in the City’s overall
efforts. Also, coordinated efforts to link multimodal
transportation options to an expanding trail
network and linking parks to transit and other
community destinations will improve livability and
reduce vehicular trips. Adapting to the impacts
of climate change could include a review of tree
species mix for increased diversity and resilience,
as well as community health services in the form of
providing cooling stations during extreme weather
events.

Active Older Adults
Over the past decade, Seaside has aged – the
percentage of residents under 45 years of age
has declined, while the percentage of older
residents has increased. Older adults, ages 55
years plus, make up 24% of Seaside’s population.

Nationwide, active seniors are often looking
at retirement age differently, and many are
transitioning to new careers, finding ways to
engage with their community, and focusing
on their health and fitness. The 2023 Outdoor
Participation Trends Report highlighted that,
in 2022, the senior population (ages 55+) had
increased its participation in outdoor recreation
to a record high of 35% and is rising. To meet the
needs of active older residents, Seaside will need
to consider how the City’s park and recreation
facilities, programming and partnerships can meet
the needs of this growing group.

Guiding Documents
This PRMP is one of several documents that
comprise Seaside’s long-range planning and policy
framework. Past community plans and other
relevant documents were reviewed for policy
direction and goals as they relate to parks, open
space, trails, recreation and cultural opportunities

SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 7
Physical Activity Benefits
Residents in communities with
increased access to parks, recreation,
natural areas and trails have more
opportunities for physical activity,
both through recreation and active
transportation. By participating in
physical activity, residents can reduce
their risk of being or becoming
overweight or obese, decrease their
likelihood of suffering from chronic
diseases, such as heart disease and
type-2 diabetes, and improve their
levels of stress and anxiety. Nearby
access to parks has been shown to
increase levels of physical activity.

According to studies by the National
Park and Recreation Association, the
majority of people of all ages who
visit parks are physically active during
their visit. Also, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) reports
that greater access to parks leads to
25% more people exercising three or
more days per week.

Community Benefits
Park and recreation facilities provide
opportunities to engage with family,
friends, and neighbors, thereby
increasing social capital and community
cohesion, which can improve residents’
mental health and overall well-being.

People who feel that they are connected
to their community and those who
participate in recreational, community
and other activities are more likely
to have better mental and physical
health and to live longer lives. Access
to parks and recreational facilities has
also been linked to reductions in crime,
particularly juvenile delinquency.
.

Economic Benefits
Parks and recreation facilities can bring
positive economic impacts through
increased property values, increased
attractiveness for businesses and
workers (quality of life), and through
direct increases in employment
opportunities.

In California in 2022, outdoor
recreation generates $73.8 billion in
consumer spending, $35.2 billion in
wages and salaries and and supported
over 567,600 jobs. Preserving access
to outdoor recreation protects
the economy, the businesses, the
communities and the people who
depend on the ability to play outside.

According to the Outdoor Recreation
Economy Report published by the
Outdoor Industry Association, outdoor
recreation can grow jobs and drive the
economy through management and
investment in parks, waters and trails
as an interconnected system designed
to sustain economic dividends for
residents.

A number of organizations and non-profits have documented the overall health and wellness benefits provided by parks, open space and trails. The Trust for Public Land published a report called The Benefits of Parks: Why America Needs More City Parks and Open Space. This report makes the following observations about the health, economic, environmental and social benefits of parks and open space:
• Physical activity makes people healthier.
• Physical activity increases with access to parks.
• Contact with the natural world improves physical and
psychological health.
• Value is added to community and economic development
sustainability.
• Benefits of tourism are enhanced.
• Trees are effective in improving air quality and assisting with stormwater control.
• Recreational opportunities for all ages are provided.

Community Profile
Location
The City of Seaside is a community of nearly 30,000
residents on the southern edge of the Monterey
Bay in central California. Most of Seaside lies
just across Highway 1 from the coast, about 115
miles south of San Francisco. Dense, single-family
neighborhoods make up the southern portion of
Seaside, while commercial areas line Del Monte
and Fremont Boulevards in the west. The northern
portion of the City includes the Bayonet & Black
Horse Golf Course, portions of the California State
University’s Monterey Bay campus, and suburban
style neighborhoods. Open space dominates the
eastern portion of the City.

Seaside is bordered by Sand City to the west,
Marina to the north, and the City of Monterey and
Del Rey Oaks to the south. The Fort Ord National
Monument extends to the east of the City.

History
The City of Seaside is located on the indigenous
land of the Rumsen native peoples, one of
SNAPSHOT: SEASIDE TODAY
several Ohlone groups who lived in communities
throughout the central California coast. Spanish
and other European settlers displaced and
decimated local native populations in the 1700
and 1800s and established farm and rangelands.

In 1888, Dr. John L.D. Roberts purchased about 150
acres of land to create new residential communities
– what is now Seaside and Sand City. By 1891, the
community was officially named Seaside. The City
of Seaside grew throughout the 1920s and 1930s
as refugees of the Great Depression headed to
California’s farming communities.

World War II led to the establishment of an U.S.

Army training facility at Fort Ord, located just
northeast of Seaside. The base, the first integrated
base in the U.S., drew thousands of soldiers and
their families, as well as supporting services and
businesses to Seaside. It also left a legacy of ethnic
and racial diversity unique to Central California,
leading to the community’s active role in social
justice movements from the 1960s to today.
2 This chapter offers a brief overview of the City
of Seaside and its demographics.

Packet Page 135
SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 9
Seaside incorporated in 1954, gaining control of
its own governance, but losing significant land
and coastal acreage to the City of Monterey and
Sand City. Seaside continued to experience rapid
growth throughout the 1960s and 1970s as Fort
Ord expanded to support the military operations
of the Korean and Vietnam Wars.

In the following decades, Seaside continued
to grow, drawing residents with its temperate
climate, scenic beauty, and proximity to the Pacific
Ocean. The City’s geographical location along the
Monterey Bay offered recreational opportunities
and supported the growth of coastal tourism.

Major changes came to Seaside in the early 1990s,
when the U.S. government closed Fort Ord as an
active-duty military base, resulting in a loss of
population and jobs, as well as declines in City
revenues. The closure of the base also brought
demographic changes in the following decade,
Seaside lost a significant number of its Black
and African American residents, but became
increasingly racially diverse. Today, nearly half of
residents identify as Hispanic or Latino.

The closure of Fort Ord also brought new attractions
and redevelopment opportunities to Seaside. The
Bayonet & Black Horse Golf Course, California
State University Monterey Bay, and the Fort Ord
National Monument – now major attractions –
were once Fort Ord lands. The City acquired some
former base lands, and some areas, like the Main
Gate and Campus Town areas, now represent the
City’s primary redevelopment opportunities.

Economy
Seaside benefits from its strategic location
within the larger Monterey Bay area, allowing
businesses to capitalize on the region’s economic
opportunities. The City’s commercial districts offer
a range of local shops, restaurants, and services,
contributing to the retail and hospitality sectors.

While the City of Seaside is predominantly a
bedroom community with services that support
local residents, the tourism industry of the
Monterey Bay draws visitors to the area’s beaches,
scenic coastline, and recreational attractions.

Tourists also enjoy exploring nearby attractions

like the Fort Ord National Monument and the
Bayonet & Black Horse Golf Course. Additionally,
Seaside’s proximity to California State University
Monterey Bay has fostered a thriving education
sector, with the University serving as an essential
economic driver, attracting students and faculty
members to the City.

Demographic Profile
Today, the City of Seaside is a diverse community
where nearly half of residents identify as Hispanic
or Latino. While the City remains home to many
families with children, its population is aging.

The City’s residents are well educated but have
moderate incomes compared to County residents.

After losing population in the 1990s, the City has
begun to gain population and is anticipated to
grow by approximately 4,000 residents over the
next two decades.

Population & Anticipated Growth
After its incorporation in 1954, Seaside experienced
rapid growth due in large part to the expansion of
nearby Fort Ord to support military operations
during the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Between
1960 and 1970, Seaside’s population nearly
doubled, growing from about 19,350 residents to
36,880 residents. New residents were drawn to
the City for its attractive location near the Pacific
coast, the presence of educational institutions
like California State University Monterey Bay, and
its proximity to major job centers in the region,
including Fort Ord. By 1990, Seaside had grown
to nearly 39,000 residents. However, the closure
of the Fort Ord military base in the early 1990s
resulted in the loss of nearly 20% of the City’s
residents, a population decline Seaside has yet
to recover from. Since 2000, the population has
hovered at between 31,000 and 33,000 residents.

that Seaside’s population will grow modestly over
coming decades, reaching 38,316 residents by
2045.5 This is equivalent to 16.7% growth between
2020 and 2045, or approximately 0.7% annual
growth.

The size of a community and its anticipated growth
over time are key indicators of whether existing
park and recreation facilities will be sufficient
to meet future needs. Population growth can
also result in increased residential density and/
or the development of currently vacant land
within a city, potentially increasing the need for
away-from-home recreation opportunities while
simultaneously reducing potential locations for
park and open space acquisition. Planning for
parks and recreation facilities can help ensure
residents can enjoy sufficient, conveniently located
parks, open space, and recreation facilities while
the community grows and evolves.

Age Group Distribution
Seaside’s population has a median age of 33.9
(2021) which is younger than the median age
in Monterey County (34.9) and California (37.0).

Young adults between 15 to 34 years old make
up the City’s largest 20-year population group,
comprising 32% of the overall population in 2021.

The age distribution of residents has important
implications for park and recreation needs.
• Adults ages 25 to 34 years are users of adult
programs. About 17% of residents are in this age
category, see Figure 3. These residents may be
entering long-term relationships and establishing
families. More than one-third of households in the
City (36%) are families with children.
• Adults between 35 and 54 years of age represent
users of a wide range of adult programs and park
facilities. Their characteristics extend from having
children using preschool and youth programs to
becoming empty nesters. This age group makes up
25% of Seaside’s population.
• Older adults, ages 55 years plus, make up 24% of
Seaside’s population. This group represents users
of adult and senior programs. These residents may
be approaching retirement or already retired and
may be spending time with grandchildren. This
group also ranges from very healthy, active seniors
to more physically inactive seniors.

While most of Seaside’s residents (65%) are adults
over 25 years of age, approximately one in three
are youth and young adults.
• Youth under 5 years of age make up 6.7% of
Seaside’s population. This group represents users
of preschool and tot programs and facilities, and as
trails and open space users, are often in strollers.

These individuals are the future participants in
youth activities.
• Children 5 to 14 years make up current youth
program participants. Approximately 13% of the
City’s population falls into this age range.
• Teens and young adults, age 15 to 24 years, are in
transition from youth program to adult programs
and participate in teen/young adult programs where
available. Members of this age group are often
seasonal employment seekers. About 16% percent
of Seaside’s residents are teens and young adults.

Over the past decade, Seaside has aged – the
percentage of residents under 45 years of age has
declined, while the percentage of older residents
has increased, see Figure 3.

Race & Ethnicity
Seaside is an increasingly diverse community, In
2021, just over half (53%) of Seaside’s residents
identified as White, about 2.5% less than did
so in 2010. The increasing diversity of the City’s
residents is due primarily to a significant increase
in the proportion of residents who identify as
Latino, two or more races, or a race not listed in
Census options.

In 2021, approximately 9% of residents identified
as Asian, 7% as Black of African American, 2% as
Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander, and
less than 1% as American Indian or Alaskan Native.

Approximately 9% of residents identified as two or
more races and 19% identified as a race not listed
in the American Community Survey options. About
46% of residents identified as Hispanic or Latino of
any race, including 38% who identify as Mexican.

Figure 4. Changes in Racial Identification - 2010 to 2021 Persons with Disabilities 6
The 2021 American Community Survey reported

11.2% (7,707 persons) of Seaside’s population as
having a disability that interferes with life activities.

This is higher than county and state averages (8.8%
and 10.6% respectively).

Planning, designing, and operating a park system
that facilitates participation by residents of all
abilities will help ensure compliance with Title
II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). In
addition to ADA, there are other accommodations
that people with disabilities may need to access
parks and participate in recreation programs.

Seaside should consider community needs for
inclusive and accessible parks, facilities, programs,
and communications.

Household Characteristics 6
In 2021, the average household in Seaside was

3.05 people, higher than the state average (2.92).

The average family also is larger, at 3.56 people.

Of the 10,321 households in the City, 36% include
children under 18, and 22% were individuals living
alone.

Forty percent of Seaside’s households own
their home, significantly lower than the average
throughout Monterey County (52%). Seaside’s
housing stock is primarily single-family homes and
offers limited option for lower income households,
including students and service workers.

Employment & Education 6
The 2021 work force population (16 years and over)
of Seaside was 25,821 (79%). Of this population,
58% is employed, 3% are in the Armed Forces,
Racial Identification 2010 7 2021 6

According to the 2021 American Community
Survey, most Seaside residents were born in the
United States (73%) and speak English very well.

However, approximately 49% of residents speak
a language other than English at home, and 20%
speak English less than very well. Most residents
who speak English less than very well speak
Spanish or Asian languages, including Tagalog,
Vietnamese, and Korean.

People of color and residents who speak languages
other than English may face barriers in accessing
parks, recreation facilities, and activities. The
City’s planning for future park and recreational
opportunities should prioritize inclusivity and
consider how best to meet the diverse recreational
needs of its growing and vibrant community.

Inclusion will not only enhance social cohesion, but
also enrich the community’s overall well-being and
quality of life.

Packet Page 139
SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 13

4.5% are unemployed, and 35% are not in the labor
force. In 2021, the City’s unemployment rate was

7.3%, significantly higher than the county (5.5%)
and statewide (6.5%) rates.

Residents work in a wide variety of industries. In
2021, about 27% of the City’s employed residents
worked in the arts, entertainment, and recreation
industries, 17% worked in education and health
care, 13% worked in the professional, scientific,
and management sector, and 12% worked in retail
trade.

Most residents (80%) over 25 years of age have
a high school degree or higher, higher than the
countywide average (73%). About 24% of Seaside
residents have a Bachelor’s degree or higher,
which is on par with countywide rates (26.5%).

Higher levels of employment and educational
attainment positively correlate with both the
income and health status of a community – both
of which have further impacts on the use and need
for park and recreation facilities, as described in
the next two sections.

Income & Poverty 6
A community’s level of household income can
impact the types of recreational services prioritized
by community members, as well as their ability to
pay for recreational services. Seaside’s households
are generally of moderate incomes, with a median
household income of $74,140 in 2021. This income
level was about $7,900 (11%) lower than the
median income for Monterey County households.

Higher income households typically have an
increased capacity to pay for recreation and
leisure services and often face fewer barriers to
participation. Approximately 35% of Seaside’s
households have household incomes in the higher
income brackets ($100,000 and greater), lower
than the county average (40%).

Also, it is essential to consider the needs of lowerincome residents as well, who may encounter barriers to physical activity due to reduced access
to parks and recreational facilities, a lack of
transportation options, a lack of time, and poor
health. Lower-income residents may also be less
financially able to afford recreational service fees
or to pay for services, like childcare, that can
make physical activity possible. In Seaside, 14%
of households earn less than $25,000 annually
and 9.5% of local families live below the poverty
level ($26,500 for a family of four), higher than
countywide and statewide rates. The City should
continue to promote inclusivity and accessibility,
ensuring that all residents can benefit from the
City’s diverse and enriching recreational offerings.

Health Status
The overall health of a community’s residents can
impact their ability to participate in recreation and
other physical activity and may also reflect, in part,
the locality’s level of access to appropriate and
convenient green spaces, recreation opportunities,
and active transportation facilities.

Information on the health of Seaside’s residents
is not readily available. However, according to the
2023 County Health Rankings, Monterey County
ranks as the 18th healthiest California county
overall. It ranks in the mid-high range (3rd quartile)
for health outcomes, including length and quality
of life. However, it ranks in the low-mid range (2nd
quartile) for health factors like health behaviors,
clinical care, social and economic factors, and the
physical environment.8
In Monterey County, approximately 75% of adults
aged 20 and older engage in leisure-time physical
activity, surpassing the rates for both California
State and the U.S. Furthermore, an impressive
90% of Monterey County residents have access
to adequate exercise opportunities, including
parks or recreation facilities, which is significantly
higher than the national (84%) average but slightly
lower than the statewide average for all California
counties (95%). This suggests that the County
ensures ample distribution of places for residents
to participate in physical activities, making it easier for Seaside residents to lead active and healthy
lifestyles. As the community continues to prioritize
health and well-being, fostering a supportive
environment with accessible recreational
opportunities is crucial in maintaining the good
relative health of Seaside residents.

Community engagement played an essential role
in developing the 2023 Parks and Recreation
Master Plan. Several outreach methods were used
to connect with the community, seek their input
and provide information about the Plan through
convenient online and in-person activities. Public
outreach methods were varied and extensive,
including:
• Random-sample mail survey and online communitywide survey in English and Spanish • Two in-person public meeting
• Stakeholder group discussions
• Tabling and outreach at multiple community events
• Meetings with Parks and Recreation Commission
and City Council
• Seaside city website with plan information and
feedback opportunities
• Multiple social media postings, email notifications,
and City newsletter articles
Community Survey
A community-wide, online survey was conducted
to assess the recreational needs and priorities
of Seaside residents. The survey was available
in English and Spanish, and the cover letter
accompanying the printed mail survey was written
in both languages and included unique QR codes
to access each in-language survey online. The
survey was mailed to a random sample of 2,500
households within the city limits of Seaside on April
5, 2023, and two rounds of reminder postcards

were mailed to the same 2,500 households on April
19th and May 5th. An online version of the survey
was posted to the City’s website on April 6th.

Overall, 251 surveys from the random sample
mailing were completed and returned (10%
response rate, 5% margin of error). An additional
107 surveys were completed from the general,
community-wide online surveys. In all, 358
surveys were collected, which included 29 surveys
in Spanish. Information about the survey was
promoted through several channels, including on
the City’s website, through multiple social media
postings, and through direct outreach to partner
organizations and recreation program participants.

Information about the survey was promoted
through a number of channels, including on the
City’s website, in the City Spotlight newsletter,
through multiple social media postings, and
through direct outreach to partner organizations
and recreation program participants. The survey
was closed on August 4, 2023.

The survey measured current levels of satisfaction
and which facilities were primarily being used by
residents. Residents were asked about future
improvements and the types of recreational
amenities they would like to see considered for
the park system. Survey respondents were asked
about:
• Performance and quality of programs and parks
• Usage of City parks and recreation facilities
• Overall satisfaction with the value of services being delivered by the City
• Opinions about the need for various park, recreation, and trail improvements
• Priorities for future park and recreation services and facilities
Survey findings are highlighted below, and a more
detailed discussion of results can be found in the
needs assessment chapters covering parks and
open space, recreation, and trails (Chapters 5 - 7).

Major Survey Findings:
• Livability: Nearly all respondents (95%) feel that
public parks and recreation opportunities are
important or essential to the quality of life on
Seaside. Over half of respondents rate the condition
of parks they have visited as excellent or good, and
concerns about park upkeep and maintenance seem
to be concentrated in a small number of parks.
• Usage: Park visitation is strong, with 78% of
respondents visiting parks or recreation facilities at
least once a month. Respondents visit local parks
and recreation facilities for a variety of reasons. The most popular reasons are to walk or run (69%) or for
fitness and exercise (52%). More than one in three
respondents visit to relax (47%), attend community
events or concerts (41%), use a playground (36%), or
walk a dog (35%).
• Recreation Programming: Residents were generally
split on whether they feel the City provides enough
park, trails, and recreation facilities. More than
half of survey respondents would like to see more
community events (64%), recreation programs (57%),
and developed parks (55%), while between 30-40%
feel the City does not have enough sports courts,
sports fields, picnic areas, and aquatics programs.
• Park Amenity Priorities: When asked to rank
specific types of improvements, respondents
identified improving and upgrading existing parks
as their top priority, followed by adding new
recreational amenities to existing parks. The survey
asked residents about their priority for a variety of
potential additions to the park system. A significant
majority of respondents rated additional walking
trails (82%) and renovated playgrounds (71%) as a
high or medium priority. More than half of residents
rated most other amenities as a high or medium
priority, including community gardens, additional
picnic areas, sport courts, indoor fitness facilities,
outdoor fitness equipment, and an indoor gym.

The complete survey summary is provided in
Appendix A.

Public Meeting #1
On June 8, 2023, the City hosted an open house
meeting from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the Oldemeyer
Center. The project team prepared a presentation
and informational displays covering the major
themes of the Parks and Recreation Master Plan.

These displays included Project Overview, Survey
Highlights, Parks & Outdoor Recreation, and
Investing in the Future. The meeting was conducted
as an in-person event, and displays were prepared
in English and Spanish.

Attendees were encouraged to talk to project team
members and record their comments. City staff
and project team staff engaged with participants to
identify general needs and interests for park and
recreation in Seaside. Approximately 35 people
attended the meeting to review materials and
provide comment. A summary of comments for the
first online open house is provided in Appendix B.

Packet Page 143
SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 17
Public Meeting #2
The City hosted a second public open house
on November 8, 2023. Informational displays
highlighted the responses to date from community
engagement and potential ideas for enhancements
or improvements to the Seaside park and
recreation system. The meeting was conducted as
an in-person event, and displays were prepared in
English and Spanish. A short question and answer
period occurred following a brief PowerPoint
presentation. Approximately 40 people attended
the meeting to review materials and provide
comments. A summary of comments for the first
online open house is provided in Appendix C.

Community Event Tabling
City staff, Parks and Recreation Commission
members and project team members conducted
a series of tabling activities at community events
and festivals. Tabling occurred between July
and October to build awareness of the Plan and
solicit input on park and recreation program
enhancements. Tabling activities were conducted
during the July 4th Celebration and the annual
Oaxaca by the Sea Festival.

Approximately 150 people were engaged during
these events. Community feedback included strong
interest in splash pads (water play elements), sport
courts, playground shade, walking and biking trails,
and youth recreation programs.

Stakeholder Discussions
Four virtual focus group discussions with
external stakeholders were conducted to more
broadly assess local needs and opportunities for
partnership, coordination and communication.

Stakeholders were identified by City staff based
on their past coordination their involvement or
interest in the future of recreation, park, and
sport or trail facilities. The outreach consisted of
an initial email invitation to several individuals
and organizations to solicit interest and follow-up
emails to confirm the meeting date and time with
interested parties. The group-based discussion
sessions occurred between May and October 2023.

The stakeholder groups sessions were organized
by topic: aquatics, sport field and sport court users,
non-profit program providers, and local partner
organizations.

Stakeholders shared their aspirations for parks,
recreation, and programs, and provided ideas
on possible improvements during the listening
sessions – including interests they would like to
see addressed in the Parks and Recreation Master
Plan. While each group had different responses
to many of the questions, several interests held
by all groups emerged. Key themes shared across
groups include:
• Improve and update the parks system to expand
recreation options and better serve all areas
of the community; Pay attention to safety and
maintenance.
• Keep facilities and programs affordable, convenient,
and safe for all to use.
• Park deficits exist in lower Seaside, and the City
should identify where to invest in more multi-sport
Packet Page 144
18 SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024
fields and courts and partner with school district for
fields and facility use.
• City does a good job of programming for seniors,
honoring with dances, food/feeding options, etc.,
but a missing gap in program options is for 18-26
year olds and middle school to high school ages for
non-sport youth.
• Promote the City’s assets and programs more;
inform, educate, engage, and partner with the
community.

Specific recommendations are incorporated in the
needs assessment sections (Chapters 5 – 7), and a
full summary is provided in Appendix D.

Commission Meetings
The Parks and Recreation Commission provided
feedback on the development of the PRMP during
three regularly scheduled public sessions during
2023. The first session occurred on April 17th,
shortly after the planning project was initiated. The
Commission discussed the update and provided
their perspectives on a vision for the system,
specific challenges, opportunities and ideas about
parks, trails and programs. Subsequent sessions
in October 2023 and February 2024 were used to
review public feedback and solicit direction from the
Commission on priorities and recommendations
for the new Parks and Recreation Master Plan.

Other Outreach
In addition to the direct outreach opportunities
described above, the Seaside community was
informed about the planning process through a
variety of media platforms. The following methods
were used to share information about the project
and provide opportunities to participate and offer
their comments:
• City website home page
• Parks and Recreation Master Plan project page
• Email outreach through the City’s distribution list
and through partner organizations
• Social media via Facebook
• Announcements at Council and Commission public
meetings

This chapter describes the park
classification system and provides
an overview of the parks and open
spaces in and near Seaside.

The City of Seaside manages over 975 acres of
parks and open space lands, providing active
recreational facilities for team and individual
sports and playground equipment at 15 parks.

Park Classifications
Parkland is classified to assist in planning for the
community’s recreational needs. The classifications
also reflect standards that inform development
decisions during site planning, in addition to
operations and maintenance expectations for the
level of developed facilities or natural lands. The
Seaside park system is composed of a hierarchy
of various park types, each offering recreational
opportunities and natural environmental
functions. Collectively, the park system is intended
to serve the full range of community needs.
4 Classifying parkland by function allows the City to
evaluate its needs and to plan for an efficient, cost
effective, and usable park system that minimizes
conflicts between park users and adjacent uses.

Several factors are considered when classifying
parks:
• Specific needs in neighborhood, service area, or
community;
• Suitability of a site for a particular use;
• Cost and effort of development;
• Possibility for public-private partnerships; and
• Operating and maintenance costs.

Each park classification defines the site’s function,
expected amenities, and recreational uses. The
classification characteristics serve as general
guidelines addressing the size and use of each
park type. The following seven classifications are
in effect in Seaside and are defined as follows.

Regional parks are recreational areas that serve residents from across Seaside and draw users from a larger geographic area. Regional parks are usually larger than 10 acres in size and provide opportunities for diverse recreational activities. Facilities may include sports fields, extensive trail systems, or large picnic areas. In addition, regional parks often include passive recreation space and unique features, such as significant natural areas or access to lakes or rivers. Because of their large size and broad service area, regional parks typically require more support facilities, such as parking and restrooms.

These parks are usually designed to accommodate large numbers of people.

Community parks typically range between five and ten acres and provide a wide variety of recreation opportunities that appeal to the entire community.

Generally, these sites are designed for active and passive recreation, supported by facilities such as sport fields, outdoor courts, skate parks and recreation centers. Athletic fields may be natural, synthetic turf, or a combination of surfaces, with or without field lighting. Community parks can accommodate large numbers of people and offer a wider variety of facilities than neighborhood parks, such as skate parks, volleyball, tennis courts, performance stages and group picnic areas. These parks also may include significant natural areas and trails. For this reason, community parks require support facilities such as restrooms, parking lots and maintenance facilities.

Community parks can also serve as local neighborhood parks for their immediate areas, and they may be connected to schools or other community facilities.

A neighborhood park is typically one to five acres in size, depending on a variety of factors including neighborhood need, physical location, and opportunity.

Neighborhood parks are intended to serve residential areas within close proximity (up to ½-mile walking or biking distance) of the park and should be geographically distributed throughout the community. Topography and population density can influence the location of a neighborhood park. Access to neighborhood parks is mostly pedestrian, and park sites should be located such that people living within the service area can reach the park safely and conveniently. Connecting and frontage streets should include sidewalks or other safe pedestrian access. Neighborhood parks should be located along road frontages to improve visual access and community awareness of the sites. These parks can offer both active and passive recreation on a limited scale, but they are used primarily for unstructured recreational activities.

Amenities may include playgrounds, picnic areas, small facilities for active recreation, open lawn areas, and gathering spaces. Support facilities may include restrooms and off-street parking.

Packet Page 149
SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 23
Also called ‘pocket’ parks, mini parks are small parks that provide passive or limited active recreation opportunities and offer green space, outdoor seating areas, small playgrounds (such as a tot lot), and sometimes artwork. These parks can provide a single purpose use, such as a garden, historic marker, resting place, benches or civic recognition. They are generally less than one acre in size and provide modest recreational amenity to residents within a ¼-mile walking distance.

Open spaces are undeveloped lands primarily left in a natural state and typically places that are geographically or geologically unique, with passive recreation use as a secondary objective. Open spaces can provide for connected or linked corridors that can support broader ecological functions than standalone properties. Open spaces can be individual or isolated tracts of open space or connected to a larger natural area network. Open spaces may serve as trail corridors, and low-impact or passive activities, such as walking and nature observation may be allowed, where appropriate.

Other Recreational Lands
School Grounds
Seaside is served by the Monterey Peninsula Unified
School District (MPUSD). There are seven public
MPUSD schools in Seaside, and the City partners
with the District to use their athletic facilities. Most elementary schools have outdoor playground
equipment, small grass or dirt play fields, basketball
hoops, and markings for playground games, such
as hopscotch. These amenities are similar to those
offered by a neighborhood park. Middle and high
schools have the same kind of programmed sport
fields common in community parks.

Federally-owned Lands
The federal government owns and manages several
hundred thousand acres of land in Monterey County,
including Fort Ord National Monument, Los Padres
National Forest, Pinnacles National Monument, the
Salinas River National Wildlife Refuge and a broad
array of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands.

Managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM),
the 14,658-acre Fort Ord National Monument was
created in 2012 from the former US Army training
and deployment center. With more than 86 miles of
trails for hiking biking or horseback riding, the land
provides extensive opportunities for outdoor dayuse experiences.

California State Parks
The California State Parks (CSP) owns and operates
20 park units in Monterey County, totaling 17,567
acres. Most of these units are on or near the coast,
with Marina State Beach as the closest to Seaside.

These state parks and reserves include Elkhorn
Slough National Estuarine Research Reserve,
Fremont Peak State Park, Garrapata State Park,
Monterey State Historic Park, Moss Landing State
Wildlife Area, Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park and Point
Lobos State Natural Reserve.

Monterey County Parks
Toro Regional Park is located 17 miles from
downtown Seaside along Highway 68. Park facilities
include an equestrian staging area and riding
trails, softball fields, playgrounds, horseshoe
pits, volleyball courts, mountain biking trails and
more than 20 miles of hiking trails. Laguna Seca
Recreation Area (also located along Highway 68)
approximately 13 miles from Seaside has camping
for tents and RVs on 177 sites. The recreation area
has a rifle and pistol range and Hospitality Pavilion
available for rental use. Laguna Seca Recreation
Area is also the site of the WeatherTech Raceway
Laguna Seca and Sea Otter Classic Sports Festival.

Jacks’ Peak Park borders the City of Monterey and is
15 miles from Seaside. The park provides 8.5 miles
of hiking trails and is home to one of three natural
stands of Monterey Pine forests remaining in the
United States.

Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary
The Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary is
a federally protected marine area off the coast,
approximately 25 miles from Salinas. Its designated
shoreline area spans 276 miles from Marin to
Cambria. The sanctuary is popular for paddling,
boating, fishing, wildlife viewing, birding and other
ocean-oriented recreational activities.

California State University Monterey Bay
Transformed from part of Fort Ord, a former
military base, CSUMB hosts events at its World
Theater and through its athletic sports programs, as
well as lectures, conferences, walking and learning
opportunities on campus.

Monterey Bay Coastal Trail
The Monterey Bay Coastal Trail is 29 miles long and
winds through the Monterey County communities
of Seaside, Pebble Beach, Pacific Grove, Monterey,
Sand City and Marina. The trail is used by both
joggers, skaters, walkers and cyclists.

30 SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024
The park system planning process assesses
recreational needs and priorities for park facilities,
active use areas and open space in Seaside.

The park assessment includes a discussion of
specific local needs with consideration given to
the City’s broader park system. Public input and
information on park inventory conditions also
were heavily relied upon in the planning process.

This chapter describes community feedback,
trends, local needs, and potential improvements
for the City’s parks and facilities.

Park & Recreation Trends
A review of several recognized park and recreation
resources provide a background on national, state,
and provide an overview of current trends, market
demands, and agency comparisons. These outdoor
recreation trends, combined with community
interests in parks, trails, and open space and an
assessment of current conditions and levels of
service, help identify and shape recommendations
for park system improvements. Examining current
recreation trends can help inform potential park
and recreation improvements and opportunities
that may enhance the community and create a
more vibrant parks system as it moves into the
future.

“Poner sombras en los parks xq con el calor tan fuerte que hace en verano todo está súper caliente, agregar canchas de basquetbol. (Put shades in the parks because with the heat so strong that everything is super hot in summer, add basketball courts.)”
The following national data highlights some of
the current park usage trends and may frame
future considerations for Seaside’s park system.

Additional trend data are provided in Appendix G.
• 90% of U.S. adults believe that parks and recreation
is an important service provided by their local
governments. (1)
• 84% of U.S. adults seek high-quality parks and
recreation when choosing a place to live. (1)
• Running, jogging, and trail running are the most
popular outdoor activities across the nation, based
on levels of participation, followed by hiking, fishing, biking, and camping. (2)
• The outdoor activity categories with the highest
growth rates among kids included backpacking,
snowshoeing, canoeing, climbing, and off-road
triathlon. (2)
• A significantly higher percentage of seniors (ages
55+) are participating in outdoor recreation. In 2022,
the senior participation rate hit a record high of 35%
and is rising. (2)
• Participation nearly doubled for pickleball in 2022,
increasing by 85.7% year-over-year. In 2022 for the
first time in over seven years, every racquet sport
increased its total participation number compared
to the previous year. (3)
• Nationally, outdoor recreation economic activity
increased 19% from 2020 to 2022, while the overall
U.S. economy only saw a 5.9% increase. (4)
According to the Sports and Fitness Industry
Association, in 2022, for the first time in over
seven years, every racquet sport increased its
total participation number compared to the
previous year. In terms of team sports, the overall
participation rate approached, but did not exceed,
the 2019 rate. Basketball, outdoor soccer, and flag
football all posted three-year increases of over

4.5%, with basketball leading the way with a 13%
increase since 2019. Lifestyle activities generally
remained very popular. Golf and tennis have
grown more than 20% since 2019, and yoga grew
more than 10% in that same time period. Trail
running and day hiking participation grew for the
fifth straight year.

According to 2023 Outdoor Participation Trends
Report published by the Outdoor Foundation
in Boulder, the outdoor recreation participant
base grew 2.3% in 2022 to a record 168.1 million
Americans (55%) ages 6 and older. Key Insights
include the following:
• Diversity: The recreational participant base is much
more diverse than ever before. New and young
outdoor participants are significantly more diverse
than the current outdoor base and are accelerating
quickly. The participation rate for Hispanic people
has increased from 34% in 2015 to 56% in 2022.
• Seniors: A significantly higher percentage of seniors (ages 55+) are participating in outdoor recreation.

In 2022, the senior participation rate hit a record
high of 35% and rising. This equates to 1 in every
5 outdoor participants and a total of 1 million new
participants in 2022.
• Gateway Activities: Gateway activities, one of the
first outdoor recreation activities people participate
in at any age, serve as magnets to outdoor activity
and commonly lead to more activity in niche
categories like backpacking and adventure racing.

Gateway activities continue to drive new entrant
outings and frequency of participation. Hiking is
the most popular activity. Running, bicycling, fishing
and camping round out the top five. Running has
the highest average outings per runner at In 54 per
year. Camping has the highest growth rate over the
past three years at 29.1% per year. The outdoor
activity categories with the highest growth rates
among kids included backpacking, snowshoeing,
canoeing, climbing, and off-road triathlon.

Demographics are changing quickly in the U.S.
population, and the outdoor recreation market
has lagged behind. Park and recreation agencies
are recognizing the need for increased diversity in
the participant base of park and recreation users.

The new and young outdoor participant bases are
significantly more diverse than the total participant
base, a formula for long-term growth in diversity
for outdoor recreation. Monitoring progress on
diversity is key to understanding if outreach is
being effective.

The 2021-2025 California Statewide Comprehensive
Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) recognizes
that public health, including environmental and
social wellness, is fundamental to the mission and
purpose of park and recreation providers. The
Plan states “Parks are unique places where children
can play, people exercise, seniors socialize, families
and friends bond, youth are mentored, cultures
are celebrated, and where everyone connects with
nature. For these basic reasons, the nexus is clear
between parks, recreation programs, and health.”
Community Feedback
Community Survey Results
The community survey confirmed that Seaside
residents strongly value their local parks, recreation
options and open space opportunities. Virtually
all survey respondents (95%) feel that local parks
and recreation opportunities are important or
essential to the quality of life in Seaside. Residents
of all ages value parks and recreation similarly –
there were no significant differences between age
groups.

The Bureau of Economic Analysis (U.S. Department of Commerce) reports on the outdoor recreation economy for the entire country and for each state through its Outdoor Recreation Satellite Account (ORSA). The 2021 California ORSA reports the value added (gross domestic product) of $54.7 billion or 1.6% share of state GPD for outdoor recreation activities. Employment in the industry supported 517,238 jobs (2.9% of jobs in state) with compensation of $28.3 billion.

In 2021, California ranked 1st among all states in ORSA value added and 8th among all states in ORSA value-added growth.

Since 2020, ORSA value added has grown 27.8% in California. In 2021, California ranked 1st among all states in outdoor recreation employment, which has grown 13.1% since 2020.

Trends in Playgrounds
Seaside residents strongly value their parks and
recreation facilities and park playgrounds are
an important element in outdoor recreation.

Reported in Landscape Architect magazine, the
top five playground industry trends for 2021 were
compiled from data and feedback from parks
professionals, landscape architects, and educators.

1. Inclusive Playgrounds, increasingly popular
over the last few years, have been evolving
beyond meeting basic ADA guidelines. Designers
are seeking to expand accessible playground
equipment, consider multi-generational play,
and leverage inclusive play to help overcome
societal barriers.

2. Rope-based Playgrounds, climbers and
playground nets provide a technique for working
around natural environments and unusual
topography. Their flexibility in placement offers
more options for connecting with the landscape
rather than working around difficult topography.

3. Outdoor Fitness has increased importance
during the COVID-19 pandemic as many gyms
and indoor fitness centers closed and forced
more people to seek outdoor options. Outdoor
fitness spaces are being increasingly integrated
into park and trail designs to encourage health
and physical fitness for all ages.

4. Outdoor Learning has been implemented during
the pandemic to replace or supplement indoor
classrooms. Outdoor classrooms can encourage
activity in children to counteract the reduction
in recess time due to hybrid class schedules and
remote learning. Seating, tables, shelters, hand
sanitizer stations and other outdoor products
are helping create outdoor classrooms.

5. Human-powered Play engages users to provide
physical energy to “power-up” the activity,
such as turning a handle, pressing foot pedals,
rotating wheels. These products often relate to
sensory experiences like lights and music, storytelling, or social games.

Spurred on by the social distancing of the
pandemic, these five trends in playground design
and development point to more human-tohuman interactions that reinforce the value of social connections, even in a physically distanced
environment.

Respondents were asked how often they visit a City
park or open space in a typical year. Over half of
respondents (59%) visit at least once a week, if not
every day. Another 20% visit one to three times per
month. Survey respondents showed a high use of
parks regardless of age and location of residence.

Respondents without children at home were more
likely to visit infrequently or not at all, while those with children were more likely to visit at least once
per week.

Figure 6. Frequency of Visitation
Respondents visit local parks and recreation
facilities for a variety of reasons, but the most
popular reasons are to walk or run (69%) or for
fitness and exercise (52%). More than one in three

or walk a dog (35%). Between 20% and 30% of
respondents visit for family gatherings, wildlife
viewing, or swimming. Fewer than one in five
respondents chose outdoor sports courts, youth
sports, recreation programs, sports fields, bike
parks, adult sports, or the skate park as a primary
reason why they visit local parks, see Figure 7.

Over half of respondents rate the condition of
parks they have visited as excellent or good, and
concerns about park upkeep and maintenance
seem to be concentrated in a small number of
parks. Survey respondents would like to see the
City prioritize the improving and upgrading existing
parks, and adding new recreational amenities to
existing parks in the future.

The survey asked residents about their priority
for a variety of potential additions to the park
system. A significant majority of respondents
rated additional walking trails (82%) and renovated
playgrounds (71%) as a high or medium priority,
see Figure 8. More than half of residents rated
most other amenities as a high or medium priority,
including community gardens (66%), additional
picnic areas (64%), sports courts (61%), indoor
fitness facilities (54%), outdoor fitness equipment
(51%), and an indoor gym (50%). 69%

Respondents were asked to rank a list of potential
park system investments. In aggregated survey
data, respondents identified improving and
upgrading existing parks as their top priority,
followed by adding new recreational amenities to
existing parks, see Figure 9.

Figure 9. Priorities for Future Citywide Park Improvements The survey also provided for open-ended
comments with responses focusing on:
• Park Maintenance & Improvements: Many
comments focus on the need to maintain and
improve the existing parks and facilities. This
includes upgrading playground equipment, fixing
pathways and trails, adding restrooms, providing
regular cleaning, ensuring safety from homeless
encampments, and overall beautifying the parks.
• Recreation & Facilities: Respondents suggest
adding various recreational activities, programs,
and facilities to cater to different age groups
and recreational interests, including educational
programs, community and cultural events, age‐
specific programs, and environmental initiatives.
• Equitable Access: Respondents would like to
see equitable access to parks and recreation
opportunities across different neighborhoods.

Respondents call for creating new parks in
underserved areas, improving accessibility for
people with disabilities, and involving community
organizations in park maintenance and
enhancement efforts.

Stakeholder Discussions
A series of stakeholder discussions were conducted
to discern current issues, opportunities, and needs
across the City’s park and recreation system.

Group discussions specialized in aquatics, sports,
and both local and non-profit partners.

Sport stakeholders included representatives from
the Boys & Girls Club, pickleball advocates and the
Monterey Surf Soccer Club. Pickleball players are
looking for more courts, and dedicated pickleball
courts are in demand. Lighting and support
facilities (restrooms or portable toilets) at Wheeler
were also mentioned with permanent conversion
of at least two of the tennis courts to pickleball.

The City’s recreation programming could consider
youth pickleball instruction. Programs offering
soccer continue to put pressure on shared uses
at Cutino Park’s multi-use field. Monterey Surf
Soccer Club is hoping the City does not start its
own youth soccer program that might preempt the
availability of Cutino for their programs. All sports
group representatives were advocating for more
available facilities in playable condition.

Partner organizations including members of
FOSPA, the Resource Conservation District of
Monterey County, Blue Zone Project, Village
Project, Palenke Arts, Community Partnership for
Youth, Boys & Girls Club, and Building Healthy
Communities contributed their ideas, concerns,
future needs, and improvements for the City’s
park and recreation system. Among the future
needs and improvements suggested by these
stakeholders included:
• Increased connectivity to parks and schools; more
trails; create connector alleyways
• Larger gathering spaces for community events;
multi-use/multi-purpose spaces with shade and
seating
• Future state of the art arts center
• Better access to restrooms
• New parks in areas without park and recreation
access
• Upgraded playgrounds
• Improved conditions in neglected parks
• Exercises stations in a circuit linking multiple parks • More supportive capacity building to enable FOSPA
to achieve more park support
• Parks that are supportive of all ages and abilities
and for the whole family
• Recreation amenities miss the late teen years if not
engaged in team sports; expand teen center
The various partnering groups also suggested
that the City help coordinate their resources with
communication across all groups.

Public Meetings
The City of Seaside hosted two, in-person open
house sessions to gather community feedback
and identify gaps or deficiencies in the park
system. Across a range of potential investments,
open house participants ranked additional walking
trails as the highest priority. In addition to more
pedestrian and biking connections, through the
various display boards, comment cards and ‘dot
exercises’, common public needs were identified
for more art in the parks, more (and dedicated)
pickleball courts, picnic shelters to support more
gatherings, and additional park spaces in areas
without access to outdoor recreation in their
neighborhood. Improving existing parks that have
lost their recreation amenities over the years and
creating more native plantings were also noted in
numerous comments requesting reinvestment in
older parks.

The second open house conducted in November
involved a presentation and informational displays
to highlight the responses to date from community
engagement and potential ideas for enhancements
or improvements to the Seaside park and
recreation system. A short question and answer
period occurred following a brief PowerPoint
presentation. City staff and project team staff
engaged with participants to identify general needs
and interests for park and recreation in Seaside.

Approximately 40 people attended the meeting to
review materials and provide comment.

The second open house focused more directly
on prioritizing future needs. Dedicated bike
routes, walking pathways, city walking tours and
connections to FORTAG routes were cited as future
trail needs. Better universal accessibility to parks
and playgrounds with provision of park spaces
in underserved neighborhoods was again cited
as a strong need for creating a more equitable
park system. Participants repeated many of the
recreational amenities cited in the first open
house such as pickleball, soccer, more restrooms,
picnic shelters, native trees, pollinator gardens,
and fitness/exercise stations. Additionally, public
feedback targeted multi-use sports courts, maps
for biking and walking routes, developing alley
Packet Page 163
SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 37
connections, adding water play (splash pad/spray
park), and potential roller skating area. Participants
also suggested repairing and upgrading existing
paved pathways in parks, adding more shade trees
and ensuring that ADA accessibility was always
considered in new improvements.

Common Themes from Community
Outreach
Filling the gaps in park and outdoor recreation
locations by providing some form of park
amenities, as well as using all parks to fill gaps in
native habitat, was emphasized by numerous open
house participants and stakeholders. Additional
amenities suggested included.
• Pickleball courts
• Basketball courts
• Multi-use sport courts
• Soccer fields
• Fitness circuit / exercise stations
• Splash pad / water play
• Accessible (ADA) playground
• Public art in parks
• Pump track
• Disc golf

2 – Fair: In general, amenities in ‘fair’
condition are mainly functional, but need
minor or moderate repairs. Fair facilities have
play surfaces, equipment, fixtures, and safety
features that are operational and allow play,
but have deficiencies or periods where they
are unusable. Fair facilities remain essential
amenities for the community but may slightly
discourage the use of the park by residents
given the current condition.
3 – Poor: In general, amenities in ‘poor’
condition are largely or completely unusable.

They need significant repairs to be functional.

Some examples include athletic fields that are
too uneven for ball games, irreparably broken
features, buildings that need structural
retrofitting, etc. Poor facilities may present
safety issues if left open or operational and
discourage residents from using the park.

Good conditions should be the goal for the
management and stewardship of park facilities.

Where infrastructure or amenities are rated as
‘fair,’ strategies should be developed for repair or
restoration. Park features, structures, amenities,
or landscapes rated as ‘poor’ should receive
immediate attention and be prioritized for nearterm maintenance, capital repairs, or a new capital project. Facilities in poor condition should also
be evaluated and taken out of operation if they
are deemed unsafe. In general, Seaside’s parks
present a wide range of conditions from attractive
new park facilities to aged and ineffective park
sites. Some improvements in providing universal
access, removing architectural barriers, and
ensuring compliance with ADA guidelines should
be considered, as upgrades and capital repairs are
scheduled in older parks and facilities.

Detailed information for each park site and
enhancement recommendations are noted in
Appendix E for the parks visited.

Highlights from park conditions observations follow
the conditions matrix and include suggestions for
improvements that also informed the preparation
of the Capital Improvements Plan.

Park Conditions
Assessment
The condition or quality of park amenities is a
key measure of park adequacy and a required
assurance of public safety. Proper stewardship
of park infrastructure requires developing a longterm maintenance and capital plan that ensures the safety of park users, aligns with community needs,
and allocates limited funding resources properly.

General park infrastructure may include walkways,
parking lots, restrooms, drainage and irrigation,
lighting systems and vegetation. Amenities can
include picnic shelters, play equipment, site
furnishings, sports courts, sports fields, and other
recreational assets. Deferred maintenance over a
long time period can result in unusable amenities
when perceived as unsafe or undesirable by park
patrons. Compliance with the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines can also provide a
measure of acceptable condition.

The current conditions of the Seaside park
system were assessed to identify existing site
maintenance issues and opportunities for future
capital improvements. The assessments occurred
in May 2023 and included visual observations of
site conditions, general park infrastructure, and
amenities. The following conditions assessment
matrix (Figure __) summarizes the results of these
assessments. For each park, an inventory of
amenities was summarized and considerations
for park maintenance were suggested. In some
parks, the landscape architect noted potential
design opportunities were noted for park
enhancements and/or improvements. These
specific recommendations are included in the
individual park facility site descriptions. These
assessments informed the development of a project
prioritization strategy for park improvements.

The matrix on the following page indicates the
types of amenities within each park facility, and
park infrastructure and amenities are rated based
on the following scale:
1 – Good Condition: Generally, amenities in
‘good’ condition offer full functionality and
do not need repairs. Good facilities have
playable sports surfaces and equipment,
working fixtures, and fully intact safety
features (railings, fences, etc.). Good facilities
encourage area residents to use the park but
may have minor cosmetic defects.

Park Conditions Summary
Park Access & ADA Accessibility
A significant portion of Seaside’s parks were built
prior to adoption of the Americans with Disabilities
Act (ADA) guidelines, the ADAAG Outdoor
Recreation guidelines, and the recommendations
from the 2014 US Access Board’s report on
Outdoor Developed Areas. The highest priority for
these ADA/ADAAG outdoor recreation guidelines
targets the provision of reasonable access to
the developed outdoor area. The conditions
assessment site visits documented a number
of barriers to access both into parks and to park
amenities. While all new parks must comply with
these federal regulations, older parks with noncompliant features are expected to be upgraded as any future improvements are planned and
implemented.

For example, the chained entry location at Beta
Park (end of Luzern) creates a barrier to pedestrian
and bicycle access into the park’s paved pathways.

A number of side entries to the park did not have
curb cuts to provide reasonable access to the park.

Within developed park areas, the access to all
amenities was not comprehensive. Many benches
and picnic tables were not along accessible routes
(paved pathways). Also, older pavement in the parks
up on the hill has been deteriorating and would
not likely meet ADA guidelines. In areas where
asphalt or concrete pavement meet with wood
decking for bridges, boardwalks and observation
platforms, there were often gaps or grade changes
that exceeded allowed measurements for ADA
compliance.

Park Pathways, Pavements & Trails
As mentioned under above, a number of older parks
had deteriorating paved pathways. While many of
those parks also lack much, if any, recreational
amenities, the park spaces still should be managed
and maintained as public places for walking. The
paths at Laguna Grande Park are subject to root
upheaval that can create tripping hazards. A
pavement management program, often used for
roads and parking lots, should also be integrated
into managing paved trails across the park system.

Laguna Grande Park also had a number of access
barriers where asphalt pavement met the decking
of boardwalks, bridges and observation platforms.

Playgrounds
Where newer play equipment has been installed,
playgrounds provided safe and valuable recreational
value. Not all play areas were fully ADA-accessible
due to drop-offs from pavement into play safety
surfacing. Ramps or other adjustments should
be added to provide full access. A number of the
older neighborhood parks contained only a swing
set or no provision for children’s’ play. These parks
should be given higher priority for improvements
to create a more equitable distribution of outdoor
recreation amenities in the City.

Highland Otis Park Mescal-Neil Park
Packet Page 168

Park Structures
Kiosks can provide news and pertinent
communications for park users, such as the kiosk
at Pacchetti Dog Park. The kiosk at Roberts Eco-Rec
Lake was empty during the site assessments. In
situations where kiosks are no longer maintained,
the City may want to consider removing them,
since empty structures can communicate a lack
of care and are more subject to vandalism and
graffiti.

The restrooms at Laguna Grande were observed
to need more frequent restocking of toilet paper
(women’s side) and trash clean-up.

Sports Courts & Fields
The Wheeler Tennis Courts will need resurfacing
in the near term to continue to provide playable
courts. There is additional space at this site that
might be adaptable for providing another type of
active (or passive) recreation activity, such as lawn
bowling, bocce or half-court sport court.

The Sonoma Sports Court offers basketball and
a form of deck hockey or similar activity. The
pavement is beginning to show some cracking and,
while currently still playable, it should be planned
for future resurfacing. Ellis Park has a new multipurpose sport court and is in excellent condition.

Park Landscapes
Former grass areas in parks where lawn irrigation
had to be discontinued have transitioned to
vacant or weedy spaces that appear neglected and
unappreciated. As each older park is reconfigured
through a master planning process, the City
should consider what landscape approach could
replace those open areas to provide some other
‘greenspace’ value, while also adding outdoor
recreational amenities.

Park trees provide essential habitat for birds and
other wildlife and help create the natural setting of
parks and open spaces. Expanding the tree canopy
in Seaside’s park system could help relieve the
bare landscape appearances, especially in parks
where grass lawn irrigation is no longer permitted.

Pollinator gardens have provided a rich and
colorful settings within the parks where the
Friends of Seaside Parks Association (FOSPA) has
worked to create and maintain these specialized
gardens. Bee City status could be celebrated more
openly within the park system and by the City in
promotions for their parks. On their own, pollinator
gardens provide a destination for many types of
parks users. On one of the park assessment visits,
an entire class of school children walked from the
nearby school to “study” the pollinator garden in
Beta Park. The excited children were armed with
bug cages, magnifying lens, and butterfly nets
ready to engage in nature.

Site Furnishings
Site furnishings throughout the park system
were a diverse mix of old and new with only
limited furnishings meeting the guidelines for
ADA-compliance. Benches ranged from newer
ADA-compliant styles to older wooden benches
sinking slowly into the sandy soil. Benches and
picnic tables that were located in open grass
areas did not have accessible routes and should
be considered when assessing ADA compliance
Pacchetti Dog Park Sonoma Sports Court
Packet Page 169
SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 43
for outdoor developed areas, since site furnishing
should have proportional access (typically 50%
should be completely ADA accessible).

Bike racks, dog waste (Mutt Mitt) bag dispensers,
trash and recycling receptacles should all be located
within reach of an accessible route, usually along a
paved pathway. Most of these site furnishings, but
not all, were within reasonable reach.

Park Signage
New park signs were observed in all parks but
often only one sign was provided. Many Seaside
parks have multiple points of entry. The City
should identify with signage all of the side entries
into parks with park names, City branding, and
park rules.

Interpretive signs were present in a few parks.

The progress of the pollinator gardens installed by
FOSPA may warrant the installation of additional
interpretive signage about nature subject, such as
the value of native plants, the role of pollinators,
drought-tolerance/water conservation, bird
habitats, among others. Beta Park, Capra Park and
other parks with pollinator gardens could provide
such a range of environmental information.

Park Design & Development
Renewed Park Development
The recently prepared site master plans for Lincoln
Cunningham and Havana Soliz Parks present
an optimistic future for the renovation of these
two sites. These build upon other recent park
improvements across the City that include Cutino
Park, Ellis Park, and Roberts Lake Eco-Rec Park.

Also, an improvement plan for the lower slope of
Capra Park was engineered in 2020. The design
improves accessibility and adds more picnicking
amenities and a tot lot play area. The upper
slopes were not incorporated into the proposed
improvements. A more comprehensive look at the
park could help coordinate Capra Park’s outdoor
recreation (both passive and active) options for the
neighborhood. A master plan for integrating future
development is recommended. The existing slope
could provide unique play opportunities integrated
into the changing grades. The upper area contains
an oversized play space with only a swing set that
should be upgraded to incorporate more climbing,
sliding, and swing apparatus. The potential for a
paved pathway moving through the perimeter of
the lawn area and connecting more park features
should also be considered. The planned backless
benches do not comply with the Department of
Justice 2010 Standards for an ADA built-in element
and should be exchanged for benches with back
supports.

Other Enhancements & Site Master Planing
As the park system has aged, a number of older
features have been removed in several parks. The
footings, concrete pads, asphalt pavement, and
foundations of past amenities are visible evidence
of a once-robust recreational offering. With water
restrictions and an inability to use irrigation
to support and supplement typical green lawn
approaches, the City needs to look more actively
at native landscaping concurrent with restocking
these older parks with recreational amenities.

Highlights of the parks where additional site master
plan would help inform future improvements
include the following.

Fernando-Montgomery Park contains no outdoor
recreation amenities and provides a few paved
pathways (aging asphalt) and one bench. Its vacant
spaces are visual evidence of former park offerings.

A revitalized and upgraded park space in this
neighborhood could provide outdoor amenities as
a place of respite, while also providing a connection
between Fernando and Mescal Streets. Smooth
paved pathways, an ADA-compliant picnic table,
a challenging play area for school-aged children
passing through the park could activate the space,
while allowing for quiet visits in a greenspace.

Retaining the existing trees and adding more shade
trees would enhance the overall natural value and
sense of place.

Manzanita-Stuart Park has views of the Bay
that could be better capitalized on. When the
pedestrian overpass (connecting to Lincoln
Cunningham Park) is replaced, additional upgrades
should be considered for this older park. Future
park amenities should be coordinated with the
planned improvements for Lincoln Cunningham
and Havana Soliz Parks to create visual continuity
and avoid duplicating outdoor recreation
options. Different types of play options could be
considered when the older play equipment needs
to be replaced. Also, the park needs new pathway
surfacing, bench replacements, and additional
shade trees. A central gazebo or small pavilion
could add a defining gathering spot.

Packet Page 170
44 SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024
Mescal Neil Park has an extensive pathway system
leading to no remaining points of interest. A single
swing set stands alone (without ADA access). This
park has considerable slope and aspect that could
be used to take advantage of the distant view and
the opportunity for play features like a set of slides
built into the sections of the hillside. The existing
swing set area could be converted to a small skate
spot, offering a different type of play, not available
in other city parks. The hilltop could support a small
pergola or pavilion for gathering and enjoying the
views to the ocean. The extensive existing paved
pathways, once repaired, could connect a series of
exercise stations providing a healthy challenge for
older children and adults to be active. More shade
trees and retaining the existing trees would be key
to enhancing this older park.

Metz Park has room for additional recreation
amenities within its vacant spaces. A full master
plan may not be warranted, but an exploration of
local neighborhood interests could help determine
the most appropriate improvements. There is
room for an upgraded and expanded picnic area
with an ADA accessible route to some of the tables.

Two significant ‘empty’ spaces, between Military
Avenue and the ballfield and in the southeast
corner beyond the basketball courts, are potential
targets for additional amenities. Depending on
neighborhood interests and park system needs,
these improvements could include pickleball
courts, a ParCour challenge course, off-leash dog
area, bocce courts, climbing walls, slack line course,
or a more traditional playground with apparatus
for all ages.

Portola Leslie Park lacks any recreational amenities
beyond a paved pathway, a few tables, and a
bench. It is adjacent to considerable play and
sports facilities that are part of the school campus,
but these schoolyard features are not available
to the general public. Targeting play options for
preschool children and providing areas of respite
with a small shelter, benches, picnic tables and
a paved loop pathway that connects all future
improvements would greatly enhance the value
of this park space beyond being a connection
between the school campus and Marietta Street.

More shade trees should be added to complement
the path network and define the seating areas.

A complete redesign of the upper terrace area
(along Marietta Street) could offer a better setting
for some more public art and, perhaps, a scenic
overlook. Using the gradient on the site, a small
amphitheater-like outdoor classroom could be
created with a pollinator garden enhancing the
setting.

Sabado Park has remnant former footings and
foundations from its former park layout. A site
master plan is recommended to guide upgrades
and renovations. At a minimum, the existing play
space with one small swing set could be enlarged
and expanded to provide more play equipment
that offers sliding and climbing experiences. Picnic
tables with grills could be added to the north paved
area. If the remnant structures were removed,
there would be additional room for a small sports
spot and/or small pavilion. More shade trees and
some ADA-compliant benches would enhance the
overall park character.

Views to the Bay
A number of the parks uphill from the downtown
area have views to the Bay and Pacific Ocean.

As these parks are re-designed through master
planning processes to improve outdoor recreation
value, the views to the ocean should be recognized
and integrated into layout and positioning of
park pathways and site furnishings. A few of the
parks where views add potential scenic value to
the outdoor experience include Mescal Neil Park,
Manzanita-Stuart and Martin Park.

Park System Adjustments
Encanto Park is an undeveloped parkland situated
on a steep sandy slope. Wedged between residential
properties with no reasonable developable space,
this parkland functions as a vacant lot creating a
hole in the neighborhood. The City could consider
surplusing the land by selling a portion to each of
the adjoining property owners.

Stephen E Ross Memorial Park is an open grass
area where modular office buildings have been
added. The park acreage should be reduced to
reflect the actual open space. The park space could
be designed to provide a more park-like setting or
the park acreage could be subtracted from the
system acreage.

Additional recommendations are noted in
Appendix E (Site Assessment Summaries) and
reflected in the Parks Capital Improvements Plan
in Chapter 9.

SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 45
Park Distribution & Gap
Analysis
Understanding the known gaps in the park system
and evaluating the City’s existing levels of service
for parks will provide a foundation for strategic
planning to ensure that tomorrow’s residents
have equitable access to a balanced distribution
of parks, trails, and recreation amenities to stay
healthy and active.

To better understand the distribution of existing
recreation amenities and where acquisition efforts
should be considered, a gap analysis of the park
system was conducted to examine and assess the
community’s current access to various recreation
opportunities across the City.

The gap analysis used travelsheds for each park
classification and calculated travel distances
along the road network starting from known and
accessible entry points at each park:
• For pocket/mini parks, travelsheds were derived
using a ¼-mile service area with travel distances
calculated along the road network starting from
known and accessible park entries.
• For neighborhood parks, travelsheds were derived
using a ¼-mile primary and ½-mile secondary service
area with travel distances calculated along the road
network starting from known and accessible park
entries.
• For community parks, travelsheds were derived
using ¼-mile, ½-mile, and 1-mile travel distances
to acknowledge that these park types (including
athletic fields) serve a wider array of users and
driving to such sites is typical.
• For regional parks, travelsheds were derived
using ¼-mile, ½-mile, and 1-mile and 2-mile travel
distances to acknowledge that these parks also
serve a wider array of users.

Composite maps of all of the park classifications
illustrate the entirety of City parks to the ½-mile
and 1-mile travelsheds.

Maps 2 through 7 illustrate the application of the
distribution criteria from existing parks. Areas in
white do not have a public park within reasonable
distance of their home (e.g., ½-mile). The illustrated
‘travelshed’ for each existing Seaside park
highlights that certain areas within the City do not
have the desired proximity to a local park. Gaps
between these service areas constitute “unserved”
neighborhoods.

Striving to provide access to a park within a
reasonable distance (e.g., ½-mile) may require
acquiring new park properties in currently underserved locations or improving multi-modal transportation connections to allow residents to
safely and conveniently reach their local park.

Areas of west-central Seaside have limited
access to public parks or open space as indicated
by white areas on Map 16. Many residents in
the Terrace West, Terrace East, and Olympia
neighborhoods are more than a ½-mile walk
from a park. These neighborhoods have some
of the highest population densities, greatest
number of children, and largest Black, Indigenous,
and People of Color (BIPOC) populations. More
neighborhood and community parks are needed
to ensure communities are being served with
appropriate park spaces, and these areas of the
City should be targeted for future acquisitions to
help create more equitable access for all residents.

While these generalized acquisition areas do not
identify a specific parcel(s) for consideration, the
area encompasses a broader region in which an
acquisition would be ideally suited. The City also
should consider interim solutions to provide
recreational spaces for these neighborhoods to
include plazas, parklets, linear parks along alleys,
and temporary/periodic pop-up parks. Additionally,
the Seaside 2040 General Plan depicts a proposed
regional park in the southeastern portion of the
City with two proposed community parks located
in the northeast and southeast.

Improving access to parks and open spaces by
adding new green spaces, re-programming unused
spaces for public use, and improving pedestrian
and bicycle connections to existing parks and open
spaces can make it easier for Seaside residents
to utilize public spaces, especially in these
neighborhoods.

Create a new park in the central
area of Seaside that has ZERO
parks within a 1/2 mile. Make park
access equitable..”

SEASIDE PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN 2024 55
Levels of Service
Service standards offer a benchmark for measuring
how well the City is meeting the expectations for
the provisions of parks, open space and outdoor
recreation facilities for the community. As guidance
for assessing current quantities and qualities of
parklands and facilities, the level of service (LOS)
in Seaside can be compared other agencies across
the country. The tradition measurement focused
on acres of parkland for the population. While
this standard should not be used exclusively, it
can offer a starting point for examining a number
of more customized and diverse approaches to
evaluating the City’s current service provision
through a variety of metrics.
