9A. INFORMATIONAL REPORT ON CALIFORNIA JAYWALKING LAW AND
CONSIDERATION OF ORDINANCE REGULATING PEDESTRIANS ON STREET
MEDIAN ISLANDS AND DRIVE-THROUGHS
Earlier this year, the City Council directed the City Attorney’s office to provide a report on California’s new jaywalking law, which limits law enforcement’s ability to cite pedestrians who cross outside of a crosswalk or do not obey certain traffic signals. While the City acknowledges the State’s authority to relax restrictions on pedestrian road crossings, the local evidence demonstrates that vehicle versus pedestrian incidents have been and continue to be a public danger and concern within the City. To strengthen the health, safety, and welfare of the community, the Council will consider an ordinance to prohibit pedestrians from standing, lying, sitting or otherwise remaining on street median islands. For the reasons stated herein, the ordinance would also prohibit pedestrians from standing, lying, sitting or otherwise remaining in retail or service business drive-throughs and adjacent areas.

CITY OF STANTON
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: October 10, 2023
SUBJECT: AUGUST 2023 GENERAL FUND REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE REPORT; HOUSING AUTHORITY REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE
REPORT; AND STATUS OF CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
REPORT IN BRIEF:
The Revenue and Expenditure Report for the month ended August 31, 2023, has been provided to the City Manager in accordance with Stanton Municipal Code Section
2.20.080 (D) and is being provided to City Council. This report includes information for both the City’s General Fund and the Housing Authority Fund. In addition, this report includes a status of the City’s Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) as of August 31, 2023. The figures reported represent preliminary figures through August 31, 2023. The fiscal year end closing process is still in progress and the final figures are pending completion of the City’s annual financial statement audit.
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS:
1. City Council find that this item is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15378(b)(5) (Organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment); and
2. Receive and file the General Fund and Housing Authority Fund’s August 2023 Revenue and Expenditure Report and Status of Capital Improvement Projects for the month ended August 31, 2023.
ANALYSIS:
General Fund Revenue and Expenditure Reports
Attachments A and B summarize the General Fund’s revenue and expenditure activity through August 31, 2023. The reports include information for the month of August, on a year-to-date basis through August, the current fiscal year’s budgeted balance and the year-to-date as a percentage of the budget. In addition, for comparison purposes, the year-to-date amount, final amount, and a percentage of final for the previous fiscal year (through August) is included as well.
Item: 9F
Click here to return to the agenda.
2 As of August 31, total General Fund revenues received to date were approximately $1.1 million, which is 4% of the Fiscal Year 2023/24 budgeted amount and is approximately $92,818 (9%) higher than the revenues recognized for the same period last year (Attachment A, page 2). However, $317,650 of revenues collected through August represent one-time, unbudgeted developer fees (beautification and public benefit fees) received for the VRV residential project. After adjusting this amount, then actual revenues through August 31 were $750,054 (2%) of the Fiscal Year 2023/24 budgeted amount and $251,792 (25%) lower than the same period last fiscal year. The reduction in current year revenues through August 2023, compared to the revenues recognized in August 2022, are attributable to the fluctuation in unrealized investment income due to market fluctuation.
Total General Fund expenditures were approximately $3.8 million through August 31, which represents 11% of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023/24 projected expenditures and is approximately $451,482 (14%) higher than the expenditures incurred for the same period last year (Attachment B, page 2). Approximately $164,408 of the increase is attributed to the “General Fund Special Projects” that were previously funded by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Fund. In addition, some increases are attributed to positions that were vacant between July 2022 and August 2022 that are now filled as of August 31, 2023. (For example, the Assistant Planner position was vacant in the previous fiscal year until August 29, 2022. Therefore, FY 2023/24 expenditures reported for the Planning Division were 92% higher than the same period in the previous fiscal year.
Per Attachment C, the City’s General Fund reserves and available fund balance (“discretionary fund balance”) is expected to be $38.9 million by June 30, 2024.
Excluding $1.5 million set aside for carryovers, the amount available for City Council appropriation is $36.4 million as shown in the table below:
Estimated
Balance
at 6/30/23
Set aside per Reserve Policy $ 14,300,000
Committed Developer Contributions 1,805,796
Assigned Fund Balance 2,449,222
Unassigned Fund Balance 17,869,654
Total Discretionary Fund Balance $ 36,424,672
Housing Authority Revenue and Expenditure Reports
Attachment D summarizes the Housing Authority Fund’s revenue and expenditure activity through August 31, 2023. The report includes information on the activity during the month of August, information on a year-to-date basis through August, the current fiscal year’s budgeted balance and the year-to-date as a percentage of the budget. In 3 addition, for comparison purposes, the year-to-date amount, final amount, and a percentage of final for the previous fiscal year (through August) is included as well.
As of August 31, total Housing Authority Fund revenues received to date were $173,001, which is 27% of the FY 2023/24 budgeted amount and is $110,791 (178%) more than the revenue collected through the same period last year due to the fluctuation in investment income as well as the timing of Tina/Pacific rental income. The Housing Authority began collecting rent payments monthly (instead of quarterly) in September 2022.
Total Housing Authority Fund expenditures were $111,313 through August 31, which is 9% of the FY 2023/24 budget and $71,926 (183%) higher than the expenditures incurred for the same period last year, primarily due to the timing of operating expenses for the Tina Pacific properties.
Per Attachment E, the City’s Housing Authority Fund’s available fund balance is expected to be $9.3 million by June 30, 2024.
Status of Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) (Attachment F) The FY 2023/24 CIP budget includes $7.0 million from the FY 2023/24 Adopted Budget and $12.7 million in carryover funding from FY 2022/23, and $7,000 in additional appropriations approved by Council since July 1, 2023, for a total amended budget of $19.7 million as of August 31, 2023. As of August 31, capital project expenditures totaled $11,115 (less than 1% of the amended budget) with an additional $1.9 million (10% of the amended budget) under contract (encumbered) for work currently underway, for a total amount spent or encumbered to date of $1.9 million (10% of the amended budget) as of August 31, 2023.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON, CALIFORNIA, ADDING CHAPTERS 10.34 AND 10.36 TO TITLE 10 OF THE STANTON MUNICIPAL
CODE REGARDING MEDIAN ISLANDS AND DRIVE-THROUGHS AND FINDING THE
ORDINANCE TO BE EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 15378 AND 15061(B)(3) OF THE STATE CEQA
GUIDELINES
WHEREAS, the City of Stanton, California (“City”) is a municipal corporation, duly organized under the California Constitution and laws of the State of California; and WHEREAS, pursuant to the police powers delegated to it by the California Constitution, the City has the authority to enact laws which promote the public health, safety, and general welfare of its citizens; and
WHEREAS, the City recognizes its paramount duty to prioritize the safety and welfare of its residents; and
WHEREAS, the City finds that pedestrians standing, lying, sitting, or otherwise remaining upon median islands located in the center of streets distracts drivers, places pedestrians in harm’s way, and tramples landscaping. Remaining in a median includes walking up and down the median. Such median islands have been installed for safety reasons to separate opposing lanes of traffic and are often landscaped for aesthetic purposes to beautify City arterials and promote traffic calming. There is no intended pedestrian use of such medians; and
WHEREAS, Beach Boulevard is an eight-lane highway and stands as one of the busiest thoroughfares experiencing a constant influx of vehicular traffic within the City; and WHEREAS, it has been observed that pedestrian activities in the medians along Beach Boulevard and other medians throughout the City pose significant safety risks and hazards to pedestrians in light of the constant traffic; and WHEREAS, statistics and data compiled by the City evidences the dangers associated with pedestrians standing, sitting, lying or otherwise remaining in the medians of Beach Boulevard and other medians throughout the City, therefore requiring immediate action to safeguard the well-being of the community; and
WHEREAS, the Orange County Sheriff’s Department reported the following number of vehicle versus pedestrian incidents in the following years: 27 in 2018; 24 in 2019; 23 in 2020; 22 in 2021; 28 in 2022; and 10 in 2023 so far. The incidents occurred throughout the City, including but not limited to the intersections of Beach and Cerritos, Chapman, Katella, Lampson, Orangewood, Stanford, and Magnolia. Of those incidents, 32 resulted in fatalities; and
Item: 11A

ORDINANCE NO. 1133
PAGE 2 OF 6
WHEREAS, the Orange County Fire Authority also responded to calls regarding incidents between vehicles and pedestrians throughout the City, including 12 in 2020; 14 in 2021; 13 in 2022; and five in 2023 so far; and
WHEREAS, the City is committed to enhancing the safety of pedestrians by discouraging their presence in the medians, thereby reducing the likelihood of accidents, injuries, and fatalities throughout the City’s busy streets and highways; and WHEREAS, in recent years, the City has received complaints from residents, visitors, and businesses about the presence of individuals who are standing, lying, sitting or otherwise remaining within or within a 6-foot radius around drive-through lanes at retail or service businesses. To “remain” in a drive-through includes, without limitation, walking in or through the drive-through for any purpose. The City finds that pedestrians standing, lying, sitting, or otherwise remaining in those lanes or areas adjacent to them can distract drivers, place pedestrians in harm’s way, and interfere with business operations. Subject to limited exceptions, drive-throughs exist for vehicular traffic purposes only and there is no need for pedestrians to stand, sit, lie otherwise remain within or around these areas; and
WHEREAS, individuals who are in vehicles queuing in drive-throughs can also be “captive audiences” who cannot easily leave the area in the event of unsafe or criminal activity. When there is a line of vehicles in a drive-through, those vehicles are often boxedin—each vehicle’s ability to exit the drive-through is dependent on the actions of the preceding and following vehicles. This can render such vehicles and the passengers therein vulnerable to unsafe and criminal activity (e.g., drivers throughout the State and country have been robbed while queuing in drive-throughs). 1 Prohibiting pedestrians from
sitting, lying, standing or remaining within a 6-foot radius of a drive-through is reasonable because of a pedestrian’s ability to stand outside of the drive-through and still reach vehicles queuing in the drive-through. Foreclosing drive-through areas to pedestrians is intended to reduce risks of criminal activity; and
1 According to Orange County Sheriff Department records, on August 2, 2023, around 4:21 a.m., a woman was held up in the drive-through of a fast food restaurant in the City of Aliso Viejo. The alleged perpetrator approached her vehicle on foot and pointed a handgun at her. At some point, the woman ran from the vehicle and the suspect entered the driver’s seat. The suspect attempted to flee in the victim’s vehicle, but then crashed it.

ORDINANCE NO. 1133
PAGE 3 OF 6
WHEREAS, the City’s intent in prohibiting the conduct of standing, lying, sitting or remaining on medians and within and adjacent to drive-throughs is to safeguard the civil liberties of its residents and protect the health, safety, and welfare of the public, including pedestrians and drivers. This Ordinance is not intended to restrict or infringe upon the free speech rights of individuals but solely endeavors to promote the safety and welfare of the community.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1: Recitals. The recitals set forth above are true and correct and are hereby adopted as findings in support of this Ordinance as if fully set forth herein.
SECTION 2: CEQA. This Ordinance is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to the State CEQA Guidelines, as it is not a “project” and has no potential to result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment. 14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15378(a). Further, this Ordinance is exempt from CEQA as there is no possibility that this Ordinance or its implementation would have a significant negative effect on the environment. 14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15061(b)(3). The City Clerk shall cause a Notice of Exemption to be filed as authorized by CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines.
SECTION 3: Code Amendment. Chapter 10.34 is hereby added to Title 10 of the Stanton Municipal Code to read as follows:
“Chapter 10.34 PEDESTRIANS PROHIBITED ON STREET MEDIAN
ISLANDS
10.34.010 Findings and purpose.
10.34.020 Median island defined.
10.34.030 Pedestrians prohibited on median islands.
10.34.010 Findings and purpose.
The City Council finds that pedestrians are standing, lying, and sitting upon median islands located in the center of streets, distracting drivers, placing themselves in harm’s way, and trampling landscaping. Vehicle accident reports involving the street medians in the City support the finding that standing, sitting, and lying on the median islands is dangerous. Such median islands have been installed for safety reasons to separate opposing lanes of traffic and are often landscaped for aesthetic purposes to beautify City arterials. There is no intended pedestrian use of such medians.
Pedestrians may cross a street in accordance with the law and do not need to stand, sit, lie, or otherwise remain on these median islands for any purpose.
ORDINANCE NO. 1133
PAGE 4 OF 6
The purpose of this chapter is to protect the public safety of drivers and pedestrians and preserve the aesthetics of the City’s landscaped median islands.
10.34.020 Median island defined.
For purposes of this chapter, a median island is a raised and curbed area, of variable width, which may or may not contain landscaping or hardscaping features, located in the approximate center of the street, parallel to the travel lanes, separating opposing lanes of motor vehicle traffic and channeling the location of the motor vehicle traffic.
10.34.030 Pedestrians prohibited on median islands.
Pedestrians are prohibited from standing, sitting, lying, or otherwise remaining upon any median island as defined in Section 10.34.020. To “remain” on a median island includes, without limitation, walking up and down the median for any purpose. However, this prohibition does not apply to City employees or contractors maintaining the median island, emergency personnel or other persons temporarily using the median island because of an accident or vehicular emergency, or persons temporarily using a median to actively cross a road, street, or highway. A pedestrian using a median to cross a road, street, or highway may only briefly be on a median, as necessary, to facilitate active and safe crossings.”
SECTION 4: Code Amendment. Chapter 10.36 is hereby added to Title 10 of the Stanton Municipal Code to read as follows:
“Chapter 10.36 PEDESTRIANS PROHIBITED IN DRIVE-THROUGHS
10.36.010 Findings and purpose.
10.36.020 Drive-through defined.
10.36.030 Pedestrians prohibited in drive-throughs.
10.36.010 Findings and purpose.
Pedestrians standing, lying, sitting, or otherwise remaining within a drivethrough can distract drivers, place pedestrians in harm’s way, and interfere with business operations. Subject to limited exceptions, drive-throughs are intended for vehicular traffic, only, and there is no intended pedestrian use for these areas.
Additionally, individuals in vehicles that are queuing in a drive-through can also be “captive audiences” who cannot easily leave the area in the event of unsafe or criminal activity. When there is a line of vehicles in a drivethrough, those vehicles are often boxed-in because each vehicle’s ability to exit the drive-through is dependent on the actions of the preceding and following vehicles. This can render such vehicles and the passengers ORDINANCE NO. 1133
PAGE 5 OF 6
therein vulnerable to unsafe and criminal activity. Foreclosing drive-through areas and the immediately adjacent areas to pedestrians is intended to reduce such risks.
The purpose of this chapter is to protect the safety and welfare of the community, including but not limited to, drivers and pedestrians.
10.36.020 Drive-through defined.
For purposes of this chapter, a drive-through (retail or service) means a retail or service business (e.g., an automated teller machine (ATM), bank, pharmacy dispensary, coffee house, fast-food restaurant, etc.) where products or services may be obtained by motorists without leaving their vehicle.
10.36.030 Pedestrians prohibited in drive-throughs.
A. Pedestrians are prohibited from standing, sitting, lying, or otherwise remaining in a drive-through (retail or service), as defined in Section 10.36.020. To “remain” in a drive-through includes, without limitation, walking in or through a drive-through for any purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this subsection (A) does not apply to any of the following: (1) employees or contractors of the business to which the drive-through is connected; provided that such individuals are acting within the course and scope of their employment; (2) emergency personnel; or (3) City employees or contractors conducting official business.
B. Pedestrians are prohibited from standing, sitting, or lying within 6 feet of any drive-through (retail or service) as defined in Section 10.36.020. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this subsection (B) does not apply to any of the following: (1) employees or contractors of the business to which the drive-through is connected; provided that such individuals are acting within the course and scope of their employment; (2) emergency personnel; (3) City employees or contractors conducting official business; or (4) individuals within a public right-of-way.” SECTION 5: Severability. If any section, sentence, clause or phrase of this Ordinance or the application thereof to any entity, person or circumstance is held for any reason to be invalid or unconstitutional, such invalidity or unconstitutionality shall not affect other provisions or applications of this Ordinance which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this Ordinance are severable.
The City Council of the City of Stanton hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance and each section, sentence, clause or phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more section, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
SECTION 6: Effective Date. This Ordinance shall become effective thirty (30) days following its adoption.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: October 10, 2023
SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 2023-26 APPROVING THE PARKS
MASTER PLAN
REPORT IN BRIEF:
As recommended by the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Commission, adopt Resolution No. 2023-26 approving the City of Stanton Parks Master Plan.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. City Council declare that this item is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections Section 15061(b)(3) and Section 15378(b)(5); and
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-26, approving the City of Stanton Parks Master Plan, entitled:
“A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON,
CALIFORNIA, APPROVING THE CITY OF STANTON PARKS MASTER
PLAN”.
BACKGROUND:
The City previously adopted a Parks and Recreation Master Plan in 2005. Since the adoption, the makeup of the community has changed including the recreational needs of Stanton residents. To address these changes, staff sought to complete a comprehensive Parks Master Plan and engaged the community to yield a final planning document to provide guidance to the City for the development of the City's parks and recreational facilities for the next 15 years.
On May 24, 2022, the City Council approved an agreement with RJM Design Group to complete the proposed Master Plan that would reflect and prioritize community needs, address desired park elements, review aging infrastructure, serve as a planning document for the Capital Improvement Program, and ensure future sustainability of the City's parks and recreational facilities.
Item: 12C
Click here to return to the agenda.
2 The scope of the Parks Master Plan project included an inventory of current facilities and programs, extensive community engagement to solicit feedback and a vision for the future, and a final report summarizing the project findings and recommendations.
ANALYSIS:
The Stanton Parks Master Plan serves as a guide and implementation tool for the management and development of parks, recreation facilities, and programs throughout the city. This document represents a summary of the extensive community outreach, research, and professional site analysis. The final report is a vision for Stanton's parks and recreation system that was inspired by the local community.
The Parks Master Plan identifies seven key initiatives for the park and recreation system, along with implementation strategies that will guide the provision of parks, recreation, and related services over the next fifteen years. • Key Strategy #1: Promote Healthy Mind and Body Development by Enhancing Fitness Opportunities throughout the City
• Key Strategy #2: Support Competitive Sportsmanship through Facility Improvements and Joint Use Agreements
• Key Strategy #3: Modernize Existing Facilities and Develop New Recreation Amenities
• Key Strategy #4: Develop a Well-Connected Trail Network that Promotes Multimodal Transportation Opportunities
• Key Strategy #5: Establish a Collaborative Community Network Focused on Promoting Safety and Awareness
• Key Strategy #6: Promote an Urban Climate Initiative to Reduce Heat Island Effect and Increase Tree Canopy Diversity
• Key Strategy #7: Provide Diverse Program Opportunities for All Ages and Abilities
The Master Plan presented here is intended to be flexible and should be evaluated or modified as the City responds to unforeseen opportunities and constraints, as well as changes in residents’ needs and demands in the context of other city priorities. The City's ability to secure sufficient and consistent funding for the development and operation of parks, recreation facilities, and programs will serve as the foundation for the successful implementation of the Master Plan. Meeting these challenges calls for a balanced effort including vision, resourcefulness, collaboration, and dedication. 3 On July 17, 2023, the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Commission recommended that the City Council adopt the proposed Parks Master Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
None, the Parks Master Plan was reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and was determined to be exempt under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines which identifies that the Master Plan is an administrative document that will not result in a project as specified in Section 15378(b)(5).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Stanton Parks Master Plan serves as a guide and implementation tool for the management and development of parks, recreation facilities, and programs throughout the city. This document represents a summary of the extensive community outreach, research, and professional site analysis. The culminating result is a community inspired plan for the future of parks and recreation in Stanton .
The process began with a review of pertinent planning documents, existing park resources, and recreation opportunities. Following the initial inventory, an extensive community outreach campaign was developed through in-person workshops, online video presentations, one-on-one stakeholder interviews, public online surveys, and direct website feedback. A translator was present at all the in-person workshops. A statistically valid multimodal survey was conducted prior to the development of the master plan in early 2022 to collect the community views on parks and recreation in the city, and was also available in multiple languages. The information collected was also included in the development of the master plan recommendations. Throughout the process, project updates and summary results were posted to the project website. This website enabled community members to review updates and provide immediate feedback at any point in time. The combination of all these outreach methods enabled anyone in the community to have a voice in the process regardless of when and where meetings were held.
The following are key strategies developed to prioritize future recreation development with the community's recreational desires.
Key Strategy #1: Promote Healthy Mind and Body Development by Enhancing Fitness Opportunities throughout the City
Goal 1.1: Repair and replace existing outdoor fitness stations at parks. Add outdoor fitness stations when implementing park improvements.
Goal 1.2: Consider developing an indoor fitness center/exercise room at the Community Center at City Hall.
Goal 1.3: Continue to offer and consider new programs/classes emphasizing health and fitness, such as yoga, Zumba, and Pilates. Consider public-private partnerships to expand health and fitness program opportunities.
Key Strategy #2: Support Competitive Sportsmanship through Facility Improvements and Joint Use Agreements
Goal 2.1: Update and implement field maintenance management plan.
Goal 2.2: Explore joint use opportunities with School Districts to expand sports facility and swimming pool availability for sports and aquatic programming.
Goal 2.3: Provide additional sports programs for adults through league play, public-private partnerships, and/or joint ventures.

Key Strategy #3: Modernize Existing Facilities and Develop New Recreation Amenities Goal 3.1: Upgrade, modernize, and renovate existing restroom facilities.
Goal 3.2: Provide additional parking and shuttle services during sporting events and community events to alleviate parking congestion.
Goal 3.3: Expand community garden at Norm Ross Sports Complex. As plots are reserved and demand increases, consider additional community garden features at Hollenbeck Park.
Goal 3.4: Include more picnic shelters at parks and/or provide shaded seating areas near splash pads and playgrounds.
Goal 3.5: Provide off leash dog areas in park and/or develop a dog park in the city.
Key Strategy #4: Develop a Well-Connected Trail Network that Promotes Multimodal Transportation Opportunities
Goal 4.1: Maintain and develop walking paths in and around parks and schools. Consider lighting pedestrian pathways to increase walking path and trail opportunities.
Goal 4.2: Continue to offer and promote the walking club program.
Goal 4.3: Consider abandoned railways and flood control channels to expand multi-use trail opportunities.
Goal 4.3: Create a Bikeways and Trail Master Plan to promote a connected bikeway and pedestrian trail network.
Key Strategy #5: Establish a Collaborative Community Network Focused on Promoting Safety and Awareness
Goal 5.1: Install motion detection lighting and remote camera systems around community facilities and areas in parks that have nighttime activity.
Goal 5.2: Develop a park ranger program to encourage park oversight, visitor assistance, and public safety.
Goal 5.3: Continue to be an active leader in homeless outreach programs and offer resources to those at risk through partnerships with the County and community based organizations.
Key Strategy #6: Promote an Urban Climate Initiative to Reduce Heat Island Effect and Increase Tree Canopy Diversity
Goal 6.1: Increase urban canopy coverage to provide shade and reduce heat island effect in existing parks and potential parkland expansion areas, including abandoned railways.
Goal 6.2: Update business and residential landscape guidelines to include urban forestry measures.
Goal 6.3: Develop a strategic approach to increase urban canopy with a Tree Master Plan.
Key Strategy #7: Provide Diverse Program Opportunities for All Ages and Abilities Goal 7.1: Expand partnerships with the business community by looking for volunteer and sponsorship opportunities to support the funding of free and low-cost events.
Goal 7.2: Build upon existing class offerings through increased targeted marketing.

Purpose of a Parks Master Plan
1 Stanton residents benefit from a wide variety of activities and resources provided by the City, including nine (9) parks, two (2) community centers, two (2) splash pads, and a Family Resource Center for mental health and family services. Stanton also provides annual holiday events and many recreational programs.
“To enhance the quality of life by providing diverse opportunities in a healthy community through an integrated system of Parks, Recreation, Cultural and Human Service programs for people of all ages and abilities.” - Community Services Department Mission Statement
The community outreach process provides a clear understanding of the community’s desires and needs for parks and recreation. Having this understanding enables strategic expenditures and improvements within the recreation system and maximizes the community impact. This report was developed in part to ensure the resources dedicated to sustaining recreation in Stanton are continuously in line with community expectations and desires.
The Master Plan presented here is intended to be flexible and should be evaluated and/or modified every five (5) years as the City responds to unforeseen opportunities and constraints, as well as changes in residents’ needs and demands in the context of other city priorities.

Benefits of Parks and Recreation
The California Park and Recreation Society (CPRS) Vision Insight and Planning Project - Creating Community in the 21st Century identifies the mission of California’s park and recreation agencies:
“To create community through people, parks and programs.” The CPRS VISION also identifies benefits of park and recreation services including:
• Foster Human Development. Parks and recreation services foster social, intellectual, physical, and emotional development.
• Promote Health and Wellness. Participation in recreation improves physical and emotional health.
• Increase Cultural Unity. Parks and recreation increase cultural unity through experiences that promote cultural understanding and celebrate diversity. • Facilitate Community Problem-Solving. Park and recreation professionals have skills in facilitation and leadership that can be applied to resolve community problems and issues.
• Protect Natural Resources. By acquiring and protecting valuable resources as open space, such as rivers, streams, greenways, viewsheds, forests, and other habitat areas, natural resources are protected and habitat required for the survival of diverse species is preserved.
• Strengthen Safety and Security. Park and recreation professionals provide safe environments for recreation and design programs and services specifically to reduce criminal activity.
• Strengthen Community Image and Sense of Place. Parks, recreation facilities, programs, and community events are key factors in strengthening community image and creating a sense of place.
• Support Economic Development. Recreation programs and facilities attract and retain businesses and residents, as well as attract tourists. Parks and recreation provide jobs and generate income for the community and for local businesses.

Local Setting
In 1906, the Pacific Electric Railway began operations through the area. The Los Alamitos branch of the railway was abandoned in the 1990’s and remnants of the railway are still visible throughout the city. Central Park’s railroad-themed playground in Stanton was chosen due to its proximity to the Pacific Electric Railway line.
The City of Stanton was incorporated in 1956 and operates under the council– manager form of government, providing a full range of municipal services. In 1959, the Stanton Women’s Civic Club selected the Jacaranda as the City Tree and the Bird of Paradise as the City Flower.
In recent years, Stanton has experienced rapid growth in the commercial, industrial, and residential sectors, ultimately creating a well-balanced community.
Within the Stanton City boundaries, several significant man-made features help shape neighborhoods and provide both opportunities and constraints with respect to parks, recreation, transportation, and community life. These include:
1 – Flood Control Channels
2 – Active and Abandoned Railways
3 – Beach Boulevard & Katella Ave (Major Arterials)
4 – New High Density Residential and Innovative Commercial Areas
1.4 Local Setting
Flood Control Channels
Flood control channels are large and empty basins which let water flow in and out (except during flooding).
Flood channels are sometimes built on the former courses of waterways as a way to reduce flooding.
In the City of Stanton, there is the Stanton Storm Channel and the Barber City Channel.

Innovative Commercial Areas
Newly added in 2020, Rodeo 39 is a public
market that has been specifically designed for
Stanton’s community. Over 25 dining. retail, and
entertainment modules, spanning 41,000 square
feet, are interwoven between local artist murals.
Active and Abandoned Railways
In 1925, the Pacific Electric Railway, an electric interurban rail known as the Red Car, connected Stanton to Santa Ana and Downtown Los Angeles on the “Santa Ana” line. The Red Car was abandoned in 1950 as automotive traffic increased.
Beach Blvd & Katella Ave
(Major Arterials) Major arterial highways Beach Blvd and Katella Ave cut north-south and eastwest, respectfully, through Stanton.
Most notably, Beach Blvd traverses all
the way to the beach to the south.

1.5 The Master Plan Process
Exhibit 1.5-1 illustrates the Parks Master
Plan process, which began in June of
2022 and included research, community
outreach, and reporting. Through
this timeline, local parks, facilities,
and programs were inventoried and
reviewed for improvements. Critical to
the process was the development of
the Community Voice. Through the lens
of the community, program and facility
priorities were identified leading to the
final recommendations required to
continue the development of Community
Services in Stanton.
Over a four-month period (AugustNovember) focused community outreach methods were used to collect
data from various segments of the
community. Stakeholder interviews,
workshops, online surveys, and direct
feedback surveys were each conducted
to gather insight into the community’s
views and desires for recreation
programs, services, and facilities.

1 Community members could stay up-todate daily through the development of a central project website. The project
website outlined the Parks Master Plan
goals and objectives and identified a
schedule of dates on how to be involved
in the outreach opportunities. As each
segment of the community outreach
was completed, the results were placed
on the website for the community to
view and provide feedback on. This
component allowed for anyone to
review the information collected to date
and provide thoughts of their own at any
time.
After the outreach process was
completed, the data was synthesized
into a clear community voice of
prioritized programs and facilities. This list
of priorities was then compared against
the inventory of existing facilities during
the months of December through April.
The results of the comparison formed the
basis for the recommendations presented
in this report. In May and June of 2023,
this report and subsequent presentations
were developed to clearly illustrate
what facilities exist, what the community
priorities are, and how the two can align
today and in the future.

Related Studies
There are existing documents and plans that relate to the planning of recreation and influence its direction. These documents and their relationship to the planning process include:
Parks and Recreation Master Plan
(2005)
The 2005 Master Plan suggested
strategies and policies to meet the
community’s recreation needs through a
variety of methods. The process consisted
of four major tasks: research, community
input, analysis, and recommendations.
Improvements to existing facilities as well
as possible development of new facilities
were proposed. The Plan also looked
at current recreation programs and
services and suggested ways to respond
to community needs. Recommendations
included maximizing the City’s ability to
acquire new parkland and developing
new revenue to implement the proposed
Capital Improvement Program.
Stanton General Plan (2008)
Each city in California is required by State
law to adopt a comprehensive, longterm General Plan for its own physical development. The General Plan consists
of mandatory and discretionary elements
including Community Development,
Community Design, Economic
Development, Infrastructure and
Community Services, Community Health
and Safety, Housing Element, Regional
Coordination, and Implementation
Program. California State law requires
that the day-to-day decisions of a city
should follow logically from, and be

Who is Stanton? A Community Profile
Tapestry Segmentation began 35 years ago. The 68-segment Tapestry Segmentation system classifies U.S. neighborhoods based on their socioeconomic and demographic compositions.
Understanding the demographic context of a community can create a valuable perspective for understanding current parks, recreation facility, and program requirements and, moreover, for anticipating parks, recreation facility, and program needs in the future. A complete demographics analysis was developed utilizing the 2022 Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) demographic datasets including the Tapestry Segmentation. This information provides a deeper understanding of “who” the community is and “where” they are geographically and economically.
The City of Stanton has a diverse population. All households fall into one of four Tapestry Lifemode groups:
1 7B & 7C
Average Age: 33
Average Income: $57K
% of Stanton Households: 52.61%

1 To enhance the analysis population
growth, housing unit growth, and age
profiles for the resident population
was compiled. Highlights of these
demographic trends include:
• The Esri forecast data set indicates
the population growth from 2010
to 2020 (1.6%) will slow down and
will decrease to 38,110 by 2027. The
five-year growth from 2022 to 2027
is projected at -0.1%, matching the
County’s average growth rate of -0.1%
change from 2022 to 2027.
• Total housing units from 2010 to 2022
illustrate a 4.2% increase (less than the
County increase of 8.9% for the same
time frame. This trend is not expected
to continue with the city nearing
buildout. The forecast for total housing
unit development from 2022 to 2027 is
expected to only be 1.6% for the City
and 1% for the County.
• Housing unit growth in the City during
the 2010 to 2022 time frame occurred
at a 4.2% rate, with approximately 38
new housing units documented each
year on average. The City housing
unit growth during the 2010-2022
time frame was below the rate in
the County which was 8.9%. The rate
of new housing units is predicted to
decrease to 1.6% during the next five
years.
Community Profile Overview
The census data indicates a declining
future population; however, the city has
recently added many new residential
developments. It will be important to
collect development impact fees/park
in lieu fees and promote landscape
standards that increase green space to
ensure adequate parkland is provided for
new residential areas in the city.
The city includes a diverse mix of
people of all ages and cultures in a
low-income, densely populated setting.
When households were given the choice
of preferred language in the 2022
multimodal survey, residents preferred to
speak 76% English, 15% Spanish, and 7%
Vietnamese. The city should continue to
offer and advertise programs, classes,
and special events in multiple languages.

3 Outreach and Engagement
The community outreach campaign developed for this Master Plan utilized multiple methods of information sharing and data collection including in person workshops, online video presentations, one-on-one stakeholder interviews, public online surveys, and online website feedback surveys.
Throughout the process, project updates and summary results were posted to the project website. This website enabled community members to review updates and provide immediate feedback at any point in time. This resource enabled anyone in the community to have a voice in the process regardless of when and where meetings were held.
The purpose of gathering community input through a variety of methods is to ensure that the Master Plan is as inclusive as possible and that it reflects the views, preferences, and recreation patterns of Stanton residents. Within this section, community feedback has been recorded in three (3) separate categories:
Category One: One-on-One Stakeholder Interviews
Direct one-on-one interviews with key stakeholders and elected officials were conducted in a format where participant’s discussed key issues and opinions on facility needs and programmatic recommendations that should be researched in the Master Plan.
Category Two: Community at Large Public Workshops
Public community consensus-building workshops were held in-person at community facilities. Meetings were open to the public where community members could learn about past survey results, ask questions of the design team, and participate in live follow up surveys.
Category Three: Statistically Valid Surveys
Direct survey responses were collected through a statistically valid, multimodal survey. This survey was conducted via telephone (land lines and cell numbers), text, and email to ensure the population demographic was represented.

Stakeholder Interviews:
The following summarizes the results of the ten (10) stakeholder interviews conducted as a part of the public outreach effort to assist in the preparation of the Master Plan.
The interviews were held between September 29 and October 27, 2022. Stakeholders included the Mayor, City Council Members, Commissioners, Boys and Girls Club representatives, and community leaders. Stakeholders were asked to fill out the questionnaire, then later schedule an in-person or video conference interview with an RJM representative to discuss their responses in more detail. Over a series of questions, various topics were discussed to identify important recreation issues, programs, facilities, as well as areas the Community Services and Public Works Departments could improve upon. The following charts illustrate the frequency of similar responses.

Statistically Valid Multimodal Survey
A total of 400 residents were surveyed by Probolsky Research between January 24, 2022 and February 1, 2022. A survey of this size yields a margin of error of +/-5.0%, with a confidence level of 95%. Interviews were conducted with respondents on both landline (37%) and mobile phones (63%). Security measures precluded individuals from completing the survey more than once and allowed only the designated respondents to complete the survey. Online respondents were able to use their computer, tablet, or smart phone to participate.
Our sample used stratified random sampling methodology to ensure that the demographic proportions of survey respondents match the demographic composition of City of Stanton residents.
The geolocation of the
participants is critical to the
data collected. Exhibit 2.2-5
indicates that there was an
equal geographic distribution of
participants across the city. This
not only validates the statistically
valid component of the survey,
but also indicates there is not
a geographic bias in the data
being recorded from only one
end of the community and not
the other.

Summarizing the Community Voice
Summarizing the Community Voice
Throughout the process, numerous needs have been identified and recorded across multiple modes of outreach (Individual Interviews, Community at Large Workshops, and Statistically Valid Surveys). Each of these modes represents a specific segment of the community outreach methodology. The community voice is developed through synthesizing all the data into a single summary representing both program and facility needs.
Since each of the input modes is directly or indirectly based on community input (qualitative and quantitative measures), it is fair to say that all of the needs identified are significant and important to some portion of the community. However, it is generally helpful to attempt to determine which needs have the highest priority as perceived by the largest number of residents (identified as the area of maximum community impact).
To achieve this analysis, each response recorded from the community is cataloged in a matrix. As an individual program or facility need is brought up (outdoor exercise equipment, senior programs, teen programs, etc.), it is recorded for frequency in the specific outreach tool and mode in which it was received. Needs that have been identified in each of the three modes have a higher impact across the community than needs identified in only one of these modes.
The recommendations are developed from the planning tools and outreach modes in which the community’s voice was recorded and evaluated. Both qualitative and quantitative measures are combined to illustrate where improvements will have the maximum impact across the entire community.
Exhibit 2.3-1 and 2.3-2 illustrate the classification of these categories as Frequent (3 modes), Apparent (2 modes), and Identified (1 mode) along with the respective needs within each category and the number of times the need was listed across all categories.
The top needs in each category have been outlined as an area of maximum community impact. There is an inherent priority of needs based on the number of times a need comes up in each category. For example, Senior Programs (3) is ranked higher than Homeless Outreach (5) because it was identified in each of the three outreach modes. However, cost implications should take precedence if the City does not have the funds for higher-ranked needs but does for a lower-ranked need. Thus, the priority for implementation may shift.

3 Existing Conditions
What parks exist and where are they?
The process for evaluating the
community needs relies heavily on what
recreation facilities exist today and how
they may or may not meet the needs of
the community. Carefully balancing the
inventory with the community needs and
desires will allow resources to be directed
to critical areas, ultimately maximizing the
community benefit.
Park Types
Park classifications are useful in several
ways. They can help define a set of
characteristics to serve as a guide when
parks are constructed or renovated. They
can also restrict incompatible activities
by limiting those activities to only certain
types of parks.
The 2005 Parks and Recreation Master
Plan includes two park types, Mini Parks
and Neighborhood Parks, but does not
include a park type definition. This Parks
Master Plan proposes a classification
system of parks to further detail uses and
acceptable features of each type of
facility.
3.1 Recommended Park Type definitions are:
Linear Park (new): An active or passive
outdoor area of linear design, longer
than it is wide, that provides or connects
recreation, park land, or open space
areas. These parks may contain walkways
or trails, lighting, and landscaping.
Optional amenities may include benches,
playground, plazas, fitness stations, and
open play area for informal activity.
Mini Park: Small sized park, less than 1
acre, that provides recreation activities
for a specific neighborhood. These areas
provide a landscaped respite from
neighborhoods and often offer places to
picnic or play. These parks may contain
amenities such as barbecues, benches,
picnic tables, and/or open play area.
Neighborhood Park: Medium sized
park, usually 1-5 acres, that provide
basic recreational activities for one or
more neighborhoods. Neighborhood
parks should be easily accessible by
pedestrians and bicyclists. These parks
may contain an open play area,
barbecues, picnic tables, sport court,
walkways, and may include restroom
facilities and/or a parking lot.
Special Use Park (new): This category
refers to stand-alone park or facility that is
designed to serve one particular use such
as a dog park or community center.

38,134, the City currently has:
The City needs approximately 77
acres (114.4 acres of parkland total) of
additional parkland in order to reach the
3 acres per 1,000 parkland acreage goal.
Opportunities for new park development
are very limited. Existing open space
in the City which may be suitable for
recreation purposes include: utility
transmission corridors, areas along the
banks of flood control channels, and
abandoned railways.
Additional opportunities to increase the
City’s park acreage may consider the
joint use of public school athletic fields.

Park Service Gap Analysis
In addition to providing appropriate
quantities and types of recreation
facilities, the City of Stanton strives to
provide them in useful and appropriate
locations. The service area gap analysis
examines how parks are distributed
throughout residential areas in the city.
Park Service Gap Analysis
“Everyone deserves a park
within walking distance of their
home.”
-NRPA (National Recreation and Parks
Association)
Proximity to parks is more than a
convenience issue. It helps to establish
an excellent park system by providing
improved air quality, circulation, and
overall improved community health
and wellness. One-half (.5) mile is
approximately a 10-15-minute walk for
most people. Most residences should be
within one-half mile of a neighborhood
park or amenity that satisfy common
recreation needs.
The 5-10-15 minute walk map outlines the
service availability around the existing
parks that are available to Stanton
residents. The service area boundaries
also reflect the physical obstructions to
pedestrian travel created by arterial
roadways, freeways, etc. which limit
easy access to parks and are reflected
by truncated shapes in the service areas
shown on the following exhibits.

Park Service Gap Analysis
49 | City of Stanton • Parks Master Plan
3 To analyze the distribution of existing city parks, a service area radius map is created for City-owned mini and neighborhood parks (see Exhibit 3.1-7).
When areas zoned for residential use fall outside of these service area designations, they are identified as an underserved neighborhood or “gap area.” There are three gap areas in the city as identified in Exhibit 3.1-7.
#1
#2
#3
This gap area is near the city boundary of Stanton. There is an abandoned railway adjacent to these homes that if redeveloped, could provide park and trail opportunities for these residents.
This area includes Katella Estates, a mobile home park, to the west which includes a private swimming pool and recreation center. The apartment buildings on the east of this gap area include private swimming pools, green spaces, and walkways.
Opportunities to build new parks in the south area of the city are limited to availability of land. Crosspointe Village in this area is a gated community that has private recreation opportunities available to the residents. There are several high density new residential developments, such as VRV, that are currently under construction that will include private recreation amenities.
Green areas and urban plazas could be provided as new commercial developments are constructed in this gap area.

Key Strategy #1: Promote Healthy Mind
and Body Development by Enhancing Fitness
Opportunities throughout the City
Existing Conditions:
Recommendations:
• There are a total of 20 outdoor fitness
stations located in the city parks.
Outdoor fitness stations are located at
Harry M. Dotson Park (1), Hollenbeck
Park (5), Stanton Central Park (10), and
Stanton Park (4).
• The City of Stanton does not have a
fitness center. There are private gyms
and fitness centers in the city.
• Repair and replace existing outdoor
fitness stations as needed.
• Add outdoor fitness stations when
implementing park improvements.
• Consider developing a fitness center

being used as storage.
Community Voice:
• Fitness or exercise equipment desires
were recorded in Workshop 2, the
Multimodal Survey, and in various
Stakeholder Interviews. Some ideas
expressed by the community were
outdoor exercise stations, exercise
equipment renovations, gym, and
fitness equipment. As part of the
2022 Statistically Valid Community
Survey, 22% of the residents chose
“Exercise Equipment” as the recreation
opportunity they would like to see
improved or expanded.
• Exhibit 4.1-1 illustrates the location of
survey respondents who indicated that
fitness or exercise equipment are a
need in the city.
Fitness and Exercise Equipment:
“The nation’s public parks and recreation
are leaders in improving the overall
health and wellness of the nation. They
are essential partners in combating some
of the most complicated challenges our
country faces – poor nutrition, hunger,
obesity, and physical inactivity. Park
and recreation agencies effectively
improve health outcomes and thus should
be supported through national and
community level funding and policies that
enable them to continue to expand their
efforts in making a positive change in the
health and wellness of our nation.” -NRPA

Martial Arts. Stanton offers few adult
sports programs, such as tennis lessons.
• Explore opportunities to increase adult
sports programs.
• Other Orange County communities
have found success by offering Adult
Sports Leagues and Drop-in Sports
for Soccer, Volleyball, Flag Football,
Kickball, Tennis, Pickleball, and
Cornhole Tournaments.
• Some of these leagues and activities
are best suited for reservations,
but others present opportunities for
joint ventures with a public-private
partnership generating revenue for the
City to off-set costs for lights and field
maintenance.
Community Voice:
• Adult sports desires were recorded in
the Multimodal Survey, the Staff Survey,
and in various Stakeholder Interviews.
Exhibit 4.1-4 illustrates the location of
these responses.
Adult Sports:
In the 2023 Parks and Recreation Trends
report by Xplor Recreation, 44.8% of
park organizations plan to add more
programs to their facilities. Adult sports
teams was one of the most common
new programs that were reported. Other
common programs being added in
cities include: group exercise programs,
teen programming, fitness programs,
mind-body balance, programs for active
older adults, educational programs,
environmental education, special events,
and programs for special needs and/or
disabled persons.

Recommendations:
• Beyond backyard pools, there are
no public aquatics facilities, nor are
there any private commercial pools in
Stanton to provide aquatic programs
for families.
• The city has (2) splash pads at Harry M.
Dotson Park and Stanton Central Park
that are open 12pm-5pm every day
between Memorial Day (May 29th) and
Labor Day (September 4th). Closed on
July 4.
• Consider working with Garden Grove
Unified and existing aquatics programs
at Rancho Alamitos High School to
expand programs and market services
to address the needs of the Stanton
community.
• Continue to maintain and promote the
splash pads at Harry M. Dotson and
Stanton Central Park.
Community Voice:
• Swimming pool desires were recorded
in Workshop 2, Workshop 3, the
Feedback Survey, and in various
Stakeholder Interviews. Ideas from the
community included swimming pool,
aquatic center, and water park.
• Exhibit 4.1-5 illustrates the location of
survey respondents who indicated that
swimming pools are a need in the city.
Swimming Pool:
Aquatic recreation has been a significant
desire by residents across Southern
California due to favorable climate
conditions. Residents in Stanton have
strongly echoed this desire on a local
level. Municipal swimming facilities
afford residents the access to swim
lessons, recreational swim, and aqua
aerobics.

Stakeholder Interviews. Ideas from
the community included restroom
improvements and public restrooms.
• Exhibit 4.1-6 illustrates the location of
survey respondents that indicated that
restroom improvements are a need in
the city.
Restroom Improvements:
The size of parks and their locations can
lead to whether or not they become
destination facilities. Small Mini Parks and
Neighborhood Parks primarily serve their
local neighborhood residents. Larger
Community Parks and Regional Parks are
more automobile centric and serve a
larger portion of the community. Having
restrooms at larger facilities supports the
wide variety of user groups that visit these
park types.

Stakeholder Interviews. Comments
from the community indicated that
more parking is needed at parks and
recreation facilities.
• Exhibit 4.1-7 illustrates the location of
survey respondents that indicated that
parking is a need in the city.
Parking:
Southern California has historically
been planned in an automobile centric
manner. Often times, there is a desire
to develop park land over adding
additional parking areas and increasing
impervious surfaces. This often gives rise
to frustrations of limited parking areas.
Balancing the available parking and park
green space is a delicate task.

Community Garden:
Community gardens are beneficial for
several reasons. They provide access to
fresh, nutritious food, ultimately promoting
healthier diets and lifestyles. These gardens
contribute to environmental sustainability
through organic practices and habitat
creation. They foster social interaction,
community building, and a sense of
belonging. Community gardens offer
educational opportunities by teaching
gardening techniques and promoting
skills development. Engaging in gardening
activities improves physical and mental
well-being, provides exercise, and has
therapeutic benefits. Lastly, community
gardens beautify urban areas, enhance
food security, and contribute to the
resilience of neighborhoods.

guests from sun and rain. With comfortable
seating and picnicing areas, they enhance
comfort and organization. Picnic shelters
accommodate larger groups, offering
privacy and a designated space for
social events. They extend the usability
of outdoor spaces and often come with
storage facilities for convenience. Overall,
picnic shelters create aesthetically pleasing
environments that enhance the enjoyment
of outdoor activities.

Recommendations:
• The City of Stanton does not offer any
dog parks within the city boundaries.
There are nearby small dog parks in
Garden Grove and Anaheim.
• Develop a new dog park in the city.
Community Voice:
• Dog park desires were recorded in
Workshop 1, Workshop 2, Workshop 3,
and the Feedback Survey.
• Exhibit 4.1-10 illustrates the location of
survey respondents that indicated that
a dog park is a need in the city.
Dog Park:
Dog parks are considered regional facilities
that attract dog owners from surrounding
areas. Dog parks are a socially engaging
activity for dog owners as well as their
canine friends. Lack of dog park facilities
can put an additional strain on local parks
to provide open areas for dog owners to
recreate. Having a dedicated dog park
centralizes off leash dog activities. Regional
facilities such as dog parks attract outside
resident populations and the opportunity to
capture nonresident tax revenue and sales
for local businesses.

Walking Paths and Trails:
“Local trails are a great way to stay active,
unwind, and for many, access shops and
get to work without relying on a car. It is no
wonder three in four U.S. adults find having
access to trails near their home important.
The vast majority of park and recreation
agencies across the United States operate,
maintain or manage trails and greenways.
The typical agency manages or maintains
12 miles of trails.” - NRPA

Bike Paths and Trails:
Bike paths and trails offer multiple
benefits, including improved physical
health through cardiovascular exercise
and muscle strengthening. Engaging
in biking and spending time on trails
positively impacts mental well-being
by reducing stress and anxiety. Biking is
an eco-friendly mode of transportation
that reduces carbon emissions and
promotes sustainability. Trails provide
recreational opportunities by connecting
people with nature and fostering
community interaction. Biking and trails
are accessible to diverse individuals,
promoting inclusivity and personal growth
through perseverance and goal-setting.

Security Cameras and Lighting:
Park security is a common element in many
cities across America. Modern park designs
help limit nefarious activity and perceptions
of potential unsafe conditions through
Crime Prevention Through Environmental
Design (CPTED) features. Crime Prevention
Through Environmental Design (CPTED)
is a multi-disciplinary approach of
crime prevention that uses urban and
architectural design and the management
of built and natural environments. CPTED
strategies aim to reduce victimization, deter
offender decisions that precede criminal
acts, and build a sense of community
among inhabitants so they can gain
territorial control of areas, reduce crime,
and minimize fear of crime. The theory is
based on four principles: Natural Access
Control, Natural Surveillance, Territoriality,
and Maintenance.

safety in city parks. Park rangers assist
visitors, enforce park regulations, and
provide information and guidance. Park
rangers also support law enforcement
agencies, by ensuring a safe and secure
environment. They are trained to respond
to emergencies and participate in search
and rescue operations. Through their
volunteer efforts, park rangers engage
the community, promote environmental
awareness, and contribute to the
preservation of natural areas.

Recommendations:
• The City of Stanton has been an active
leader in the North Orange County
Public Safety Task Force. There are
two local Navigation Centers in Buena
Park (150 beds) and in Placentia (100
beds). The City of Stanton currently
employs four full-time Homeless
Outreach Coordinators, providing
daily two-person coverage to engage
with individuals who are experiencing
homelessness in Stanton. The city has
a homeless outreach hotline phone
number (714) 890-4292. The Family
Resource Center offers support through
emergency assistance programs.
• The City should continue to monitor
the homeless population through
its established homeless outreach
program.
Community Voice:
• Homeless outreach desires were
recorded in Workshop 1, Workshop
2, Workshop 3, the Feedback Survey,
and in various Stakeholder Interviews.
The community’s comments included
removing the homeless from parks and

Ideas from the community included
educating the public and providing
assistance to the homeless.
• Exhibit 4.1-15 illustrates the location of
survey respondents who indicated that
homeless outreach is a need in the
city.
Homeless Outreach:
Homelessness has been raised as an
important issue in Stanton. In several
cases, community feedback identified a
decreased sense of safety in areas that
experience high concentration of the
homeless or urban campers. According to
data collected by the County of Orange
during the 2019 Point In Time count, the
vast majority of Orange County’s homeless
population (73 percent) reported a city
in Orange County as their last permanent
address. The data also showed that
72 percent of individuals experiencing
homelessness are currently working or have
worked in Orange County. Because people
experience homelessness for a variety of
reasons, there are just as many pathways
out of homelessness.

Key Strategy #7: Provide Diverse
Program Opportunities for All Ages
and Abilities
The City of Stanton’s Community Services Department oversees the use of eleven (11) parks and three (3) community centers, as well as organizes and provides a variety of recreation opportunities for all residents of Stanton. In addition, the Department staff is responsible for administering all public communication for the city. Family support services, domestic violence prevention and treatment, emergency assistance, homework assistance, adoption and foster services, early childhood education, commodity and food distribution and afterschool/summer programs are all offered at the Family Resource Center.
The City of Stanton offers many free events and affordable programs. In Fall 2022, the City launched “Everyone Plays”, a scholarship program to provide families with access to fee-based classes.
During the development of the Parks Master Plan, several program desires were recorded. Most desires are already offered by the city indicating that the current offerings may need to be expanded.
Community Voice:
The following are program mentions that were recorded most often and would have a high impact in the community. Some are already offered and should continue to be offered, while others are new ideas for programs.
Affordable Programs
• Affordable program desires were recorded in Workshop 3, the Staff Survey, and in various Stakeholder Interviews.
Mental Health Program
• Mental health program desires were recorded in Workshop 1, Workshop 3, and in the Staff Survey.
Teen Programs
• Teen program desires were recorded in Workshop 3, the Multimodal Survey, and in various Stakeholder Interviews. Ideas from the community included teen activities, leadership, and skills classes.
Senior Programs
• Senior program desires were recorded in Workshop 2, the Multimodal Survey, and in various Stakeholder Interviews. Ideas from the community included senior health & wellness classes, senior activities, food distribution, and activities for older adults.

75 | City of Stanton • Parks Master Plan
4 Recommendations:
• Expand partnerships with the business community by looking for volunteer and sponsorship opportunities to support the funding of free and low-cost events. • Consider repurpose of the Caretaker Building at Harry M. Dotson Park to better serve the community.
• Expand/increase teen-specific programs (e.g., skateboarding, battle of the bands, teen dances, video games). Other examples of teen-specific programs include civic engagement programs.
• Continue to partner with private businesses to offer dance and art classes. • Explore opportunities/space available to offer more arts and crafts classes at the Stanton Community Center/Civic Center or Stanton Central Park Community Center. • Explore opportunities/space available to offer more dance classes at the Stanton Community Center/Civic Center or Stanton Central Park Community Center. • Marketing efforts should follow best practices that are in line with “where” the community gets most of its recreation information from the City. Based on the results of the multimodal survey, 31% of respondents found information for City parks and programming on the city website, 30% look on Facebook, and 23% look on Instagram.
Additional program recommendations based on the professional assessment are:
Recommendation 1:
The City should consider marketing its youth programs by age group. Provide listings for early childhood programs, school-aged programs, and teens in dedicated sections within the Stanton Express similar to how programs are organized for seniors.
Recommendation 2:
The City should consider mobile or drop-in programs in the community. Where fees are a barrier, mobile drop-in activities can provide a successful solution.
Recommendation 3:
With our review of the program registration data, we discovered a trend and strong interest with cultural dance classes, such as Baile Folklorico. This interest suggests other Mexican traditions, cultural programs, and events may draw similar interest from the community.
Recommendation 4:
The City should consider a modification to its policies for class registration and facility and field reservations to ensure residents are provided priority access and reduced rates.
Recommendation 5:
The City should consider an update to its Athletics Field Use and Allocation Policy.
An updated policy should provide careful consideration to the following: Nonprofit permits before for-profit permits; Priority access for Stanton-based youth sports organizations; Minimum residency requirements to qualify as a resident-based organization; Lower reservation rates for resident-based permits and organizations; and a review of the City’s Priority B Allocations to ensure priority is not provided to nonresidents and commercial permits over non-profit permits.

There is approximately $9.4 million in park and facility projects in various stages design, planning, and implementation (Exhibit 4.2-1).
While funding sources are secured for the park and facility improvement projects above in Exhibit 4.2-1, the City will need to develop new revenue sources beyond these and/or increase funding levels to support the needs of park maintenance and any additional capital projects identified in the Master Plan. The Financial Review and Recommendations in the Appendix provides a variety of potential revenue and alternative funding sources the City may want to explore.
The following are grant opportunities currently available:
• The Great American Outdoors Act

Giving
The park and facility projects identified in Exhibit 4.2-2 includes a possible funding source in the table; however, several of the grant programs above could also provide a funding source for several of the projects. The City should review and evaluate all available grant opportunities for each of the new projects considered.
The specific funding source for projects will depend on the timing of the new development, the funding sources available at that time, and/or those which may be more easily pursued at the time. For major improvements, which include such facilities as community centers, sports complexes, gymnasiums, etc., the use of a capital project fund-raising effort may be needed.
Sponsorships and/or naming rights for major corporate or other private donors may also be a consideration. Other sources of funding may include development agreements, public/private partnerships, and/or grant opportunities.
Use of bonds, an increase in taxes, or special assessment districts requires voterapproval. Despite the dislike for taxes, voters in many communities have been willing to accept an increase when revenues are specifically earmarked for improvements or enhancements to public parks and amenities.
Exhibit 4.2-2 identifies several recommended projects by park site and recreation facility for the City of Stanton based on professional site analysis and the community outreach during the Master Plan process. Project cost estimates are general in nature and developed to represent a master plan level cost for future budgeting.

Costs should be considered as approximations of the proposed project. Actual costs will depend on design, size of facility, additional support facilities, utilities, infrastructure, environmental conditions, as well as site specific conditions which require additional study and have not been evaluated in the Master Plan. Based on these general project estimates and with all projects considered, the City of Stanton has a projection of $5.5 million in park specific renovations to improve and develop the proposed parklands and recreation facilities as is shown below in Exhibit 4.2-2.

The City should consider grouping like projects together within grant applications.
Examples are shown below:
• Fitness Stations: CDC Prevention and Public Health Grant • Playground Resurfacing: California Statewide Park Program (SPP) Grant The City will need to collect Park In-Lieu Fees to implement the proposed projects within this Master Plan. The City’s Community Center Impact Fee Fund ($175,000) can be dedicated to proposed projects within this Master Plan.
Existing Park improvements can be combined by type and bid to specialty contractors for potentially more competitive pricing. The following categories represent specific improvements that are identified in several park or recreation facility locations:
• Replace Rubberized Play Surface and Playground Structures • Splash Pad Repairs
• Outdoor Exercise Equipment/Fitness Stations
Proposals for future park operations must include adequate funding at a level necessary to sustain quality and patron safety in the City’s parks and must include cost-effective maintenance practices to address the needs of each of these new or refurbished parks and their amenities.

Opportunity Sites
4 The following sites have been identified as potential opportunity sites for new parks and recreational amenities:
• Expand Joint Use Agreements with School Districts to include potential soccer fields at Esther L. Walter Elementary School, Robert M Pyles Elementary School, and Alamitos Intermediate School and potential ball fields, running track, and swimming pool use at Rancho Alamitos High School.
• Include urban plazas, green spaces, and/or pocket parks when planning new high density housing projects and commercial projects, specifically in the southern portion of the city.
• Abandoned railways and flood control channels, including abandoned railway adjacent to Stanton Central Park.
• Acquisition/Expansion of Norm Ross Sports Complex to allow direct access to park (currently access is only through Stanton Park) and expand parking and recreation amenities.

Maintenance Recommendations
A quality maintenance program for the City’s parks, buildings, and its assets requires a plan, a team, a schedule, and a program. Identifying the specific needs, expectations, and preventive maintenance necessary for each asset/amenity is important to understanding the ongoing direct and indirect costs of these assets and will help the City make informed financial decisions in the future.
While the City’s park maintenance is provided by contract service providers, it is important for the City to assess and identify the specific requirements of these contract providers, and to have adequate personnel to ensure the contractor is meeting the requirements included within the contract. The City must evaluate whether its 1.25 FTE’s is sufficient to meet this need. The City should consider adding one or more staff to its park maintenance team. While the number of budgeted staff may meet the needs of the City’s park maintenance with support of its contract service provider, staff will be challenged to have time to adequately review the contractor’s performance of the 37+ acres, even with an exceptional contract service provider.
The assessment of these costs provides a tool to assist the city in using limited resources more effectively, with more emphasis on preventive maintenance as opposed to responding and reacting to asset failures.
The Operations and Maintenance Plan included in the Appendix document includes more detailed recommendations for maintenance practices and procedures.

Conclusion
The Stanton Parks Master Plan is a community-inspired guide for the management and development of parks and recreation in Stanton. It incorporates extensive community outreach, research, and professional analysis to outline key strategies and goals. These strategies include promoting healthy lifestyles, supporting competitive sportsmanship, modernizing facilities, developing trail networks, establishing safety initiatives, promoting urban climate initiatives, and providing diverse program opportunities.
The plan also includes recommendations for specific park and facility improvements, some of which are funded while others are unfunded. The total estimated costs for the recommended improvements over the next 15 years amount to $13,953,050 for the first five years, $5,521,500 for the following five years, and $3,677,750 for the final five years.
The corner stone for the successful implementation of the Master Plan will be the City’s ability to secure adequate and stable funding for the development and operation of parks, recreation facilities, and programs. Meeting these challenges will require equal amounts of vision, resourcefulness, partnership, and hard work.

City of Stanton - Community Needs
Assessment
Survey Methodology*
From January 24 to February 1, 2022, Probolsky Research conducted a live-interviewer telephone and online survey among City of Stanton residents.
A total of 400 residents were surveyed (134 by telephone and 266 online). A survey of this size yields a margin of error of +/-5%, with a confidence level of 95%. Interviews were conducted with respondents on both landline (37%) and mobile phones (63%) and were offered in English (76%), Spanish (15%), Vietnemese (7%), Korean (1%), Mandarin (1%), and Arabic (<1%) languages. For the online survey phase, we invited participation via email (50%) and text message (50%). Security measures precluded individuals from completing the survey more than once and allowed only the designated resident to complete the survey. Online respondents were able to use their computer, tablet or smart phone to participate.
The original sample was compiled by Probolsky Research using consumer data to ensure we reached residents on their most current phone numbers and email addresses. Probolsky Research applies a stratified random sampling methodology to ensure that the demographic proportions of survey respondents match the demographic composition of City of Stanton residents.
Probolsky Research is a woman and Latina-owned market and opinion research firm with corporate, election, government, non-profit, and special interest clients.

Assessment and Inventory of Programs and Services
The City of Stanton’s 2021/22 Budget describes the Community Services Department mission as:
“To enhance the quality of life by providing diverse opportunities in a healthy community through an integrated system of Parks, Recreation, Cultural and Human Services programs for people of all ages and abilities”.
The Department
Stanton’s Community Services Department consists of three Divisions: Recreation Services, Human Services and Administrative Services. The Department and these Divisions offer a variety of programs, services, classes and events for all ages, abilities, and economic levels.
The Department provides and manages programs and services through a dedicated team of professionals:
In addition to planning and providing recreation programs and services, the Department is responsible for administering all public communication for the City, which includes the City’s website and social media accounts. The team manages the City’s communication program to promote the City and its services. This includes Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 71 planning, organization, and developing marketing materials related to City operations, and addressing communication with media representatives for City events and services.
The Department also oversees the use of community facilities and disseminates an array of resources and family support services through the multi-service Stanton Central Park, the Family Resource Center, seven neighborhood parks, and one sports facility.
The Commission
Stanton’s Parks, Recreation and Community Services Commission:
− Consists of seven members appointed by the City Council; − Serves as City Ambassadors for City services and works with City staff to benefit the community of Stanton as directed by the members of the City Council; and − Acts in an advisory capacity to the City Council on various topics, such as:
▪ Development and rehabilitation of parks and recreation facilities; ▪ Review and recommended changes to the rules and regulations governing the use of City facilities; and
▪ Reviews and provides feedback regarding various Community Services projects
Californians today are confronted with a number of serious health and social issues, including obesity, diabetes, depression and suicide to name a few. The trend towards a sedentary lifestyle is recognized as a major contributor towards many of these health and social issues we face in our communities.
With an increased awareness of these issues, park and recreation professionals, policy makers, health care providers, public safety officers, and educators need to better understand the benefits parks, recreation spaces, community facilities and programs may play in addressing these concerns. Healthcare and recreation professionals realize they must make physical activity fun, safe, and accessible to address these alarming health trends. They need to make recreation opportunities more available while actively promoting the link between parks and recreation, and improved mental, physical, and societal health.
This Parks Master Plan will review and analyze the City’s current program offerings in terms of attendance, use of space, and consistency with current trends in the recreation and leisure services industry. The evaluation shall review and provide analysis of the Department’s performance with programs and services for all age groups (toddlers to seniors). The evaluation shall indicate any observed gaps in service and recommendations for new programs and services the City may consider implementing.

RECREATION PROGRAM ASSESSMENT
The Community Services Department plans, implements, and supervises a variety of City events, sports competitions, private celebrations, and self-directed recreation activities for the general public. Special events include the Art Exhibit, Halloween Festival, Movies under the Stars, National Night Out, Easter Egg Hunt, a Veterans Day Ceremony and Christmas Tree Lighting. In addition, the City co-sponsors a variety of events and activities with the Stanton Community Foundation and other community-based groups.
A variety of classes, activities, and self-directed recreation opportunities are available at the following City facilities and park locations:
− Harry M. Dotson Park
− Hollenbeck Park
− Martha Weishaupt Linear Park
− Premier Park
− Stanton Civic Center
− Stanton Family Resource Center
− Stanton Park
− Stanton Central Park
− Veterans Memorial Park
− Zuniga Park
COVID 19 IMPACTS
As with every community, recreation programs and attendance were dramatically affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. FY 2019/20 operated at approximately 75% of the norm with the pandemic and closures affecting communities globally in March 2020.
While programs, parks, and services were on hold during the pandemic, as with most cities, the Department and the staff quickly responded to provide alternative services to support the Stanton community. The Community Services Department provided assistance with the pandemic response including purchasing and storing (PPE) personal protective equipment, providing support administering small businesses loans, and implementing a grab-n-go meal and pantry item food distribution.
From the onset in March 2020, the Department moved further into shut down mode as guidance and mandates were provided by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and California’s Department of Public Health (CDPH). The Department created a Virtual Community Center, a Virtual Family Resource Center, and offered some virtual classes for the community when in-person classes weren’t possible.
The City provided support with field reservations in fall 2020 and moved forward with some contract classes in Winter 2021. Special Events varied with some drive-thru events with the city’s 2021 Halloween Festival being its first completely in-person special event since the March 2020.

PARTICIPATION ASSESSMENT
With an unprecedented pandemic, the mandates and requirements of the California Public Health Department, and the shutdown of facilities, programs, and services, this assessment provides an interesting perspective of the City’s efforts to return to the service of a deserving community with a need and interest in these programs and services.
In our assessment, the results shine brightly through the participation numbers in the City’s programs and services the past three years. The figures below compare participation prior to, during, and following the closures of the pandemic. The programs and services team in Community Services is to be commended for its efforts to bring the parks, people, and programs back to action. The RJM Design Group typically evaluates two years of attendance data for Parks Master Plans; however, it is necessary to evaluate additional years to truly understand the demand, participation, and impact of the programs and services provided.
Recreation programs, services, and facilities provide a number of benefits, which help strengthen families, build healthy communities, improve the quality of life for residents, encourage the healthy development of children and help inspire community leaders. With a quality plan and a responsive, service-oriented team, the City of Stanton will continue to provide great benefits to its community.
Recreation Programs
− Are essential to personal health;
− Are key to balanced human development;
− Promote health and wellness;
− Protect natural resources;
− Increase cultural unity;
− Are essential to quality of life;
− Reduce self-destructive and anti-social behavior;
− Build strong families and healthy communities;
PARTICIPATION (All Activities) PARTICIPATION (By Age Group) Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 74 − Strengthen safety and security in the community;
− Strengthen community image and sense of place; and
− Support economic development.
Research shows that recreation programs in parks can change the way people interact with their environment. By providing the community with ways to get involved and stay invested in its green spaces, effective park programming brings many benefits to the health and well-being for residents.
Effective recreation programs promote the positive use of leisure time and a lifelong commitment to a healthy lifestyle, personal development, and a strong community.
Every City is limited by the facilities, budgets, and staffing available; however, opportunities will always remain for the City to be creative and to collaborate with other public and private service providers to expand its services for the community.
The City has explored opportunities and has collaborated on programs and activities with other agencies and at the facilities of other agencies. These programs are offered both within and outside the boundaries of Stanton.
Some of these examples include:
Westminster Ice – The City of Stanton partners with the Rinks and its Westminster Ice facility to provide a variety of hockey and skating programs for participants of all ages and ability levels. With its nine locations in Southern California, the Rinks are home to thousands of youth and adult hockey players, as well as recreational skaters to competitive Olympic figure skaters. Programs include: daily public ice skating and roller skating sessions, youth and adult hockey programs and leagues, figure skating, learn to skate classes, curling, birthdays and group events.
Wine and Design Art Studio – The City of Stanton partners with the Wine and Design Art Studio to provide arts classes for the community. Some of these classes are offered at the Wine and Design Art Studio (After School Art Club), while other classes they bring their staff to the Stanton facilities, such as the Senior Art Day.
City of Fountain Valley – The City of Stanton partners with the City of Fountain Valley to provide STEM programs for the community. The classes are offered at facilities in Fountain Valley by Mad Science Staff.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 75 The following Stanton service providers offer programs and services that compliment those provided by Community Services.
Orange County Public Library – Orange County has a branch of its public library system in Stanton. In addition to over 60,000 volumes, it offers morning and an evening story time, afternoon craft programs, and free high speed wireless Internet access (WIFI).
Stanton Boys & Girls Club – The Boys & Girls Club offers a variety of services and resources, including nationally recognized programs that are age appropriate and fun. The Club seeks to inspire the next generation of future leaders through programs that foster character & leadership, education & career development, health & life skills, the arts, sports, fitness, and recreation. The Club also provides computer access, tutoring, and a homework help room for elementary school children.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 76
PRESCHOOL THROUGH TEEN PROGRAMS AND SERVICES
A variety recreation programs are offered to the Stanton community for youth under 18 years. These include specific offerings for preschool-aged (5 and under), schoolage (5-12 years), and the teenage (13-17 years) population in Stanton.
Preschool/Early Childhood Programs
Quality preschool and early childhood programs introduce hands-on learning opportunities through art, music, dance, cooking, language, and motor-skill activities. These programs help preschoolers develop social and academic skills to prepare them for success in kindergarten and beyond. Feedback from other communities in Orange County report early childhood programs as one of the most successful programs they offer.
The City of Stanton provides several programs for preschool age children, including the examples shown below:
− Basketball
− Gymnastics
− Martial Arts
− Soccer
− Sports
− Story Time
− Science
− Ice Skating
Preliminary Recommendations for Early Childhood / Preschool Programs − Provide a listing of early childhood programs in a dedicated section within the Stanton Express. Parents may be looking for something specific (preschool sports), but likely are looking for what is offered for their preschool age child.
Making it easy to find the classes and activities for parents will provide more exposure to all of the classes and activities available. − Preschool Programs for toddlers with a variety of activities, including arts, story time, music, cooking, and game activities typically are in high demand in Orange County communities.
− Classes for toddlers with arts and crafts, cooking, and messy activities are also in demand. Preschoolers love these activities and parents love these activities being available in a place other than their family home.
School-Age Programs
School-age children spend 80 percent of their waking hours outside of school, while 1 in 5 young people in the U.S. are alone after the school day ends. Quality afterschool programs promote positive youth development and offer a safe space where youth can explore, recreate, and play.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 77 Effective afterschool programs provide learning settings that bring a wide range of benefits to youth, families, and communities. Afterschool programs can support social, emotional, cognitive, and academic development. These programs can reduce risky behaviors, promote physical health, and provide a safe and supportive environment for children and youth.
Quality afterschool programs understand children and youth in different age groups have different academic, psychological, and physical activity needs. A variety of activities should be considered with specific focus to the needs of this age group.
The City of Stanton provides many recreation programs and opportunities for this age group, including the examples shown below:
− Dance Classes
− NextGen Tennis
− OST – Out of School Time
− Sports Programs (Sky Hawks, YMCA)
− Ice Skating
− Ice Hockey
− Tutoring
− STEM – Science, Technology, Engineering and Math
− Summer Camp
− Arts Club
− Kids Night Out
− Be Brave, Be Safe
Preliminary Recommendations for School-Age Programs
− Where residents are challenged to pay for fee-based programs, many cities have brought drop-in programs to schools and parks in the community. Where fees are a barrier, mobile drop-in activities can provide a successful solution. − We understand the City of Stanton and Garden Grove Unified are exploring a Joint Use Agreement (JUA) for access to the sports fields at the Early Childhood Education Center at Carver Preschool. The City may want to approach other school districts serving Stanton to inquire about similar agreements (e.g., Rancho Alamitos High School).
− These JUA’s and partnership opportunities may provide additional opportunities for joint programs and/or access to classrooms, outdoor spaces, and other amenities to provide additional services to the community. − Access to day care and camps during the summer and on school breaks is challenging for parents. While the Stanton Summer Camp provides this service to the community, the program is limited to the first twenty participants. Seeking opportunities to provide additional services and/or to work in partnership with others to provide these services provides a valuable and needed service for families in Stanton.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 78 − Additional half-day camps are offered in the Stanton Express, but these are typically only offered during the morning hours. While these programs come with a fee substantially higher than the free summer camp, parents may be interested in the program, but may need a program that covers more hours in the day (8-4 or 9-5). Cities have found success by offering complimentary fee-based camp activities in the afternoon. As an example, kids can participate in a tennis camp in the morning, with another program offering lunch, crafts, and games in the afternoon.
− These afternoon camps also create options for kids attending summer school in the mornings. As an example, kids attend summer school in the morning and a tennis camp in the afternoon.
− There may be an opportunity to partner with a local school to jointly offer feebased programs in the afternoon on the school campus.
Teen Programs
Positive Experiences + Positive Relationships + Positive Environments = Positive Teen Development. Consistent with the Interagency Working Group on Youth Programs, positive teen development is an intentional, prosocial approach that engages teens within their peer groups, communities, schools, and families in a manner that is productive and constructive.
Stanton provides a teen volunteer program that supports youth programs and special events. The City hosts teen special events quarterly, such as the Teen Night Out and Glow-in-the-Dark Dodgeball. The City offers a variety of other programs not exclusive for teens, but for age groups inclusive of teens.
Preliminary Recommendations for Teen Programs
− The City may want to consider identifying spaces for a Teen Center, indoor and outdoor program spaces, and programs specifically for teens, such as:
o Teen Dances
o Battle of the Bands
o Skateboarding
o Leaders in Training
o Youth Employment Services
− Teens and Civic Engagement – The City of Irvine’s Youth Action Teams provide a great example with its Middle School Youth Action Team and its High School Youth Action Team. As the program below describes, this might be a good place to start as it engages teens in local government to address, understand, and respond to their needs and desires with programs and services.
The High School Youth Action Team (HSYAT) provides high school students the opportunity to participate in the development, implementation, and evaluation of services for their peers. The program consists of student representatives from local high schools who organize teen activities and represent their peers to various community groups.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 79 The program’s objectives include:
− Youth Leadership – Engage youth in leadership roles in the community. − Community Services – Increase youth participation in activities that benefit the entire community.
− Social-Recreational – Engage youth in safe and appealing socialrecreational activities.
Similarly, the Middle School Youth Action Team plan and offer programs, such as teen dances, after-school activities, and community service projects focusing on the environment, youth, senior, and people with disabilities.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 80
PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITY TYPES
While Stanton’s population is relatively small for Southern California and Orange County, every community has limited resources (budgets, staff, and facilities) to serve its residents and to meet all of its program demands. This is where creative solutions, collaborations, and partnerships aligning the City’s mission with other public and private service providers (e.g., Stanton Branch of the OC Public Library system). This Parks Master Plan will identify the programs, services, and facilities most needed and in demand.
Youth Sports and Aquatics
The Department offers a variety of preschool sports programs, youth sports and fitness programs for school-aged youth through teens, and provides fitness-based programs and activities for adults and seniors. Examples of these programs and services are provided below:
City Sports Programs
− Tennis Lessons
− Basketball
− Baseball
− Soccer
− Martial Arts
− Gymnastics
− Ice Skating and Ice Hockey
Tennis Programs
In partnership with NextGen Tennis, the City provides a variety of group and private tennis lessons at the four tennis courts at Stanton’s Central Park. Leagues are also offered for adult Men and Women.
As the City considers its tennis programs and services, it is important to provide balance between providing courts for open drop-in play, and providing courts for scheduled activities. Careful consideration should also evaluate activities with one (private lessons) or two participants (drop-in singles play), when there are opportunities and demand for activities with more participants. In simple terms, identifying opportunities for a tennis court to be occupied by programs with four or more persons provides more service to a community when compared to providing a court for one or two persons. Also worth noting, scheduling classes and activities provides a more efficient use of the court, and the City receives a revenue share of these activities, which assists in offsetting costs for maintenance and utilities.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 81 See example below:
1. Drop-in Singles Tennis
2. Group Tennis Lessons
3. Live Ball Workouts
Preliminary Recommendations for Tennis
− 10 and under Tennis – USTA designed these programs with racquets, balls and courts sized to fit the needs and abilities of these younger participants. The courts are smaller, the unique balls have lower compression to bounce lower and to move slower through the air to help these younger participants learn and to find success early on.
− Junior Team Tennis – USTA’s Junior Team Tennis, or “JTT”, brings together boys and girls, ages 5 to 18, to play singles, doubles and mixed doubles against others. − Live Ball Tennis Workouts – Live Ball is the tennis workout that tries to check all the boxes: Fitness – Fun – Action – Camaraderie. It’s an approach to tennis where instruction takes a back seat to fitness, where servers and returners are replaced by champions and challengers
− USTA Challenge Play – A fun and social start to competition. A USTA Team Challenge is your first step into tennis competition. USTA Team Challenges offer a low-pressure team environment for beginner players of all ages to develop their skills with others of similar experience.
Note:
− Some of these team and league programs are typically played on more than four (4) courts, but may be modified and/or offered in conjunction with a neighboring community.
Aquatics
Beyond backyard pools, there are no public aquatics facilities, nor are there any private commercial pools in Stanton to provide swim lessons and swim team programs for families.
Preliminary Recommendations for Aquatics:
− The City may want to consider working with Garden Grove Unified and any existing aquatics programs at Rancho Alamitos High School to expand programs and market services to address the needs of the Stanton community.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 82 Dance Classes
Dance classes can provide powerful benefits to children by nurturing their talent and sparking their creativity. Creative movement can positively impact a child’s physical, emotional, and mental health, and dancing is a fun way to release a child’s energy and excitement!
Throughout the past three years, Stanton provided a variety of dance programs for kids. As the information shows below, while more types of dance classes were offered in the past, the Baile Folklorico classes typically accounted for the majority of the participants enrolled. With the community seeking these Mexican cultural dance classes, the Department may want to consider offering additional classes in celebration of Mexican culture. See examples of dance classes below with references to participation.
Programs offered in FY 21/22 (374 participants)
− Baile Folklorico (374)
Programs offered in FY 20/21 (58 participants)
− Baile Folklorico (51)
− Ballet
− Jazz
− Lyrical Dance
Programs offered in FY 19/20 (277 participants)
− Baile Folklorico (149 participants)
− Ballet
− Ballroom & Swing
− Hip Hop
− Jazz
− Tap
− Tap & Ballet
− Salsa
Preliminary Recommendations for Dance:
− The City’s Stanton Express provided a large selection of dance classes beyond Baile Folklorico; however, these classes were often cancelled and/or involved minimal participation. While not consistent with the demand for Baile Folklorico, there appeared to be some interest in Hip Hop, Tap, and Ballet classes. − While it appears as though these classes have been discontinued, the City may want to experiment with limited offerings of these dance classes. The City may also want to collaborate with neighboring communities to jointly provide some of these classes.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 83 Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM Programs) Science and nature activities help children to better understand the environment they live in. These activities help children develop analytical thinking, problem solving and coping skills. Science and nature activities are also important in developing children’s creativity.
The City of Stanton provides a variety of STEM programs in partnership with the Mad Science staff with offerings of half-day summer camp programs. There appears to be minimal STEM programs offered outside of the summer months.
These STEM program offerings in Stanton include the following:
− Robotics
− Astronomy
− Engineering
− Science Labs
− Math Tutoring
Preliminary Recommendations for STEM Programs
− The City may want to consider providing STEM programs and activities after school or on weekends during the school year.
− The City may also want to consider a gardening program in conjunction with the UC Master Gardeners. The UC Master Gardener Program is a public service and outreach program under the University of California Agriculture and Natural Resource. Volunteer Master Gardeners are passionate volunteers who provide demonstration and education to the public to extend research-based knowledge and information on home horticulture, pest management, and sustainable landscape practices.
Child Care and Camps
Providing quality afterschool child care and day camps when school is on break can support the social, emotional, cognitive, and academic development needs of youth. These programs can also reduce risky behaviors, promote physical health, and provide a safe and supportive environment for children and youth.
The City of Stanton provides opportunities for child care and day camps with the following programs:
− Stanton Summer Camp
− Sky Hawks and Mini Hawks Camps
− Mad Science Camps
As shared earlier,
− Access to day care and camps during the summer and on school breaks is challenging for parents. While the Summer Day Camp provides this service to the community, the program is limited to the first twenty participants. Seeking opportunities to provide additional services and/or to work in partnership with Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 84 others to provide these services provides a valuable and needed service for the community.
− Additional half-day camps are offered in the Stanton Express, but these are typically only offered during the morning hours. While these programs come with a fee substantially higher than the free summer camp, parents may be interested in the program, but may need a program that covers more hours in the day (8-4 or 9-5).
In addition to after-school programs, summer day camps, and the recreation-based classes and activities, the following child care providers and programs are available for the Stanton community.
− Educare Center
− Stanton Family Child Care
− Stanton Early Head Start
Preliminary Recommendations for Child Care
During the summer and during school breaks, the City offers a variety of daily (halfday) camps. These are typically offered in the mornings before 12 noon. Cities have found success by offering complimentary fee-based camp activities in the afternoon. As an example, kids can participate in a tennis camp in the morning, with lunch, crafts, and games in the afternoon. These afternoon camps also create options for kids attending summer school. Children can attend summer school in the mornings and a tennis camp in the afternoon.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 85
ORGANIZED YOUTH & ADULT TEAM SPORTS
In addition to the youth sports programs and activities shared earlier, youth team and league-based sports programs are available and provided by local youth sports organizations. These programs are typically provided by volunteers and by nonprofit organizations; however, the programs below are all for profit organizations.
The following programs are offered in Stanton, Ca.
− Americans Baseball (Youth Baseball)
− Explosions Baseball (Girls Softball)
− OC Dynamo (Youth Soccer)
− Mavericks (Youth Baseball)
With limited sports fields and limited opportunities for these programs, as space becomes available, considering opportunities to support programs and services offered by others. This win for the Stanton provides programs for the community, with minimal commitments required by City personnel and budgets.
There are alternative approaches the City may want to consider in how fields are allocated and requirements for organizations requesting priority and access to fields. Ideally, these fields are provided to Stanton residents and/or organizations who best serve the Stanton community.
The City may want to consider the following recommendations for future updates to its Athletic Field Use and Allocation Policy:
− When two competing permits are received, consider the following:
▪ Nonprofit before For Profit;
▪ Youth before Adults;
▪ Resident before Non-Resident; and
▪ Recreation-Based Programs before Club/Travel Ball Programs. − Providing priority to Stanton-based youth nonprofit sports organizations; − Identify minimum residency requirements for Stanton nonprofit teams/organizations;
− Providing a lower reservation rate for Stanton-based nonprofit organizations; − Providing additional clarification to define Priority B Allocations. As written, it appears as though a prior commercial and/or nonresident permit could receive priority over a nonprofit team with many Stanton residents. − Providing additional clarification to define resident permits. As written, it appears as though a resident can request a reservation and a receive a permit at the resident rate for a commercial activity?
− Providing reduced permit fees for field lights for resident nonprofit organizations and residents. The fee is high when compared to other agencies and will be prohibitive for local nonprofit organizations, such as AYSO Soccer and Little League Baseball.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 86 Preliminary Recommendations – Other Orange County communities have found success by offering:
− Youth Flag Football Leagues
− Youth Lacrosse Leagues
− Youth Rugby Leagues
− Badminton Programs and Leagues
− Pickle Ball Programs and Leagues
− Adult Sports Leagues (soccer, softball, basketball, pickle ball, cornhole, etc.) Note:
− Some of these leagues and activities are best suited for reservations, but others present opportunities for joint ventures with a public-private partnership generating revenue for the City to off-set costs for lights and field maintenance.
The City’s men’s and women’s tennis leagues are an example of a Citysponsored adult sports league. − Opportunities may also be available to partner with the Stanton Boys and Girls Club or The Map Sports Facility on indoor sports leagues and programs in these gymnasiums.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 87
ADULT PROGRAMS
We all know that leading an active lifestyle is good for us. If you participate in regular moderate physical activity, you can expect to enjoy numerous health and social benefits. Regular physical activity is one of the most important things you can do for your health. Being physically active can improve your brain health, help manage weight, reduce the risk of disease, strengthen bones and muscles, and improve your ability to do everyday activities.
Adults who sit less and do any amount of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity gain some health benefits. Only a few lifestyle choices have as large an impact on your health as physical activity. Everyone can experience the health benefits of physical activity – age, abilities, ethnicity, shape, or size do not matter.
The City of Stanton offers the activities below for its adult:
− Yoga
− Dance
− Walking Club
− Tennis
− Quilting
− First Aid and CPR
− Programs at the FRC, such as citizenship classes
Preliminary Recommendations for Adult Programs
The City of Stanton has a comprehensive adult program for its community, but may want to consider the following:
− Adult Sports Leagues and Drop-in Sports
o Soccer
o Volleyball
o Flag Football
o Kickball
o Pickleball
− Cornhole Tournaments
− Adult Art Classes
− ESL Classes (English as a Second Language)
Note:
− While the City’s outdoor sports facilities are limited, there are opportunities to collaborate with neighboring cities on these programs. As an example, Stanton may provide one or more fields on one or more days, and a neighboring community and/or school district may provide other fields on other days. − We also recognize these sports facilities are in high-demand by local youth sports programs; however, these adult leagues are typically provided on a lighted sports field following scheduled youth team activities.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 88 − There are contract service providers, such as Major League Softball and Beach City Sports available to manage and to coordinate all of the details for these adult sports leagues. Coordination includes everything from marketing, websites, and registration, to managing the schedules, the games, and the officials.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 89
SENIOR PROGRAMS
Recognizing California’s population of residents 65 years and older is projected to grow to 8.6 million by 2030, Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order calling for the creation of a Master Plan for Aging (MPA) in June 2019.
California’s Master Plan for Aging (MPA) affirms the priority of the health and wellbeing of older Californians. It is a “blueprint” for the state, local governments, the private sector, and philanthropy to better prepare California’s leadership on aging, disability, and equity.
The Master Plan for Aging outlines five goals and twenty-three strategies to build a California for All Ages by 2030. The following briefly describes these goals:
Goal One: Housing for All Ages and Stages
− We will live where we choose as we age in communities that are age, disability, dementia-friendly, and climate and disaster-ready.
Goal Two: Health Reimagined
− We will have access to the services we need to live at home in our communities and to optimize our health and quality of life.
Goal Three: Inclusion and Equity, Not Isolation
− We will have lifelong opportunities for work, volunteering, engagement, and leadership, and will be protected from isolation, discrimination, abuse, neglect, and exploitation.
Goal Four: Caregiving That Works
− We will be prepared for and supported through the rewards and challenges of caring for aging loved ones.
Goal Five: Affording Aging
− We will have economic security for as long as we live.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 90 The City of Stanton offers a variety of services for the senior citizens in its community.
The following ongoing programs are offered at the Stanton Civic Center:
− Bingo
− Hula Dancing
− Musical Day
− Meal Programs
− Information, Resource and Referrals
− OCTA Access Transportation
− Senior Newsletter
− Health Insurance Counseling and Advocacy
− Senior Transportation
− OCTA Access Transportation
− Information and Referrals
− Drivers Safety Classes
− Exercise Classes
− Health Classes
Preliminary Recommendations for Senior Programs
− Senior Clubs
− Recreation Classes
Note:
− As City resources are limited, identifying and coordinating opportunities for seniors to connect in Senior Clubs (book clubs, travel clubs, arts, table tennis, billiards, etc.) is often a great solution for expanding services and “things to do…” for seniors without additional commitments from City budgets and staff.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 91
SPECIAL EVENTS
Community-wide events bring people from all walks of life together, strengthening the bonds between them. Studies have shown that building healthy relationships and spending time with your family, friends, and others in your community can help improve your mental well-being.
Establishing a strong identity and a sense of pride for a community is important, especially for smaller cities. Smaller cities can use community events to connect residents and to keep old traditions alive, while making new traditions.
The City of Stanton provides several special events including the… − Art Exhibit;
− Halloween Festival;
− Movies under the Stars;
− National Night Out;
− Easter Egg Hunt;
− Veterans Day Ceremony; and
− Christmas Tree Lighting.
With our review of the program registration data, we discovered a trend and strong interest with cultural dance classes, Baile Folklorico. This interest suggests other Mexican traditions, cultural programs, and events may draw similar interest from the community. As an example, the City may want to incorporate the traditional Day of the Dead or Día de los Muertos celebrations within the Annual Halloween Festival.
Preliminary Recommendations for Special Events
− Concerts in the Parks
− Cultural Events
− Events in conjunction with a local chamber of commerce and restaurants, such as a Taste of Stanton event.
− Events may assist in promoting local businesses as they celebrate the cultural make-up of the community. With this in mind, there may be opportunities and interest from businesses to host an event in a center adjacent to these businesses.
Note:
− Events are typically challenged with attendance in its first few years. Most events often kick off with a modest crowd and grow with excitement in future years.
With this in mind, as opposed to marketing and promoting to bring the people to your new event, take your creative new idea/event to the people. Communities have found success by bringing small events to a large community gathering or another existing special event.
− Events are also typically challenged with budgets for new or growing special events; however, popular events with large attendance numbers have built-in opportunities for sponsorships from local businesses.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 92
HUMAN SERVICES
Parks and Communities are more than just arts, music, and sports classes. The benefits of recreation are meaningless to a child, parent, or family in crisis. The City of Stanton offers a myriad of family support services for the community through its Family Resource Center.
As the Department’s mission states…
“To enhance the quality of life by providing diverse opportunities in a healthy community through an integrated system of Parks, Recreation, Cultural and Human Services programs for people of all ages and abilities”.
The Human Services programs are critical in Stanton as they provide a caring and helpful hand to individuals, couples, and families with support and assistance to identify and access services.
The Center also provides free afterschool programs, nutritional snacks, and recreation programs for the community.
The Stanton Family Resource Center receives funding from the County of Orange Families and Communities Together (FaCT) Program. FaCT is a partnership between the County of Orange Social Services Agency and Charitable Ventures.
Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 93
DISABILITY SERVICES
Nearly everyone faces hardships and difficulties at one time or another. But for people with disabilities, barriers can be more frequent and have a greater impact.
The World Health Organization (WHO) describes barriers as being more than just physical obstacles. These include aspects, such as…
− A physical environment that is not accessible;
− Lack of relevant assistive technology (assistive, adaptive, and rehabilitative devices);
− Negative attitudes toward people with disabilities; and − Services, systems, and policies that are either nonexistent or that hinder the involvement of all people with a health condition in all areas of life.
Community inclusion is the opportunity to live and exist as a contributing member of the community while being valued for one’s abilities and uniqueness, regardless of disability. The ultimate goal of community inclusion is the participation of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities across a range of areas, including:
− Employment
− Housing
− Education
− Recreation and Leisure
− Civic Engagement
− Peer Support
Inclusion of people with disabilities into everyday activities involves practices and policies designed to identify and remove barriers such as physical, communication, and attitudinal, that hamper individuals’ ability to have full participation in society, the same as people without disabilities. Inclusion involves:
− Getting fair treatment from others (nondiscrimination); − Making products, communications, and the physical environment more usable by as many people as possible (universal design);
− Modifying items, procedures, or systems to enable a person with a disability to use them to the maximum extent possible (reasonable accommodations); and − Eliminating the belief that people with disabilities are unhealthy or less capable of doing things (stigma, stereotypes).
Public entities have an ongoing obligation to ensure individuals with disabilities are not excluded from programs and services because facilities are unusable or inaccessible to them. It allows entities confronted with limited financial resources to improve accessibility without excessive expense. In the years since the ADA took effect, public facilities have become increasingly accessible.
Disability inclusion involves input from people with disabilities, generally through disability-focused organizations, program or structural design, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. As an example, the City of Irvine’s Irvine Residents with Tool 3: Inventory of Recreation Facilities and Parks 94 Disabilities Advisory Board provides support to the City by recommending programs and services meeting the physical and social needs of residents who have disabilities, regardless of age. The Board provides advocacy and support for programs related to community needs and provides recommendations to a variety of City Departments to ensure all community needs are addressed.
Delivery of services to those with special needs presents numerous challenges including training of workers, finding staff with training in specific areas for children who need one-on-one attention, and keeping costs low, while providing appropriate and quality accommodations. For parents, the continuum of special services and childcare for their special needs child from infant care to preschool to kindergarten and beyond can be challenging when considering cost, availability, location, and transportation.
Stanton’s Family Resource Center provides information and referrals for people with disabilities. The Center receives funding from the County of Orange Families and Communities Together (FaCT) Program. FaCT is a partnership between the County of Orange Social Services Agency and Charitable Ventures.
Preliminary Recommendations for Disability Services
− Develop an Inclusion Policy dedicated and committed to following the guidelines established by ADA to ensure all programs, activities, and services are accessible and available to individuals with disabilities. − Develop inclusion programs to allow participants the opportunity for more “hands‐on” job training classes, to improve their potential for finding employment.
− In cooperation with local school districts and the Orange County Social Service Agency, develop programs specific to persons with disabilities, such as independent living programs, summer programs, after school programs, and job training programs specific to residents with disabilities. − Explore potential cooperative agreements with other Orange County communities and nonprofits, such as REACH to provide programming opportunities for persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

CITY OF STANTON PARK FACILITY ASSESSMENT
Rubio Medina, Architect Stanton Park Facility Assessment Executive Summary 1
PURPOSE
In June of 2022, the City of Stanton retained the services of RJM Design Group to conduct a parks master plan study to evaluate their parks and amenities. As part of the parks master plan study the City also requested the assessment of three City owned facilities:
Community Center at Central Park
Community Center at the Civic Center
Harry M Dotson Support Building
On August 23 and 24 a brief interview was conducted with Scott Jensen, Public Works Manager regarding the condition of the three facilities to gain better understanding of any challenges faced and operational shortcomings. A walking tour of the three facilities were conducted. In attendance were:
Scott Jenson, Stanton Public Works Director
Rubio Medina, Architect
Steve Tolsma, Tremco Roofing, Inc
Parker Weingarden, Tremco Roofing, Inc
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Community Center’s at Central Park and the Civic Center along with the Harry M Dotson Park are all relatively new facilities and or have had recent upgrades to finishes. The facilities are well maintained, and the majority of issues encountered are related to general maintenance items with the exception of additional storage and conformance with accessibility standards.
Community Center at Central Park
The Community Center at Central Park supports park activities by providing multiple community gathering spaces through its divisible community room. It can support multiple small events or large events. The park is also supported by public use restrooms and storage for various activities.
Parking is adjacent to the park and the community rooms/restroom buildings and is provided with accessible parking and accessible path of travel. All appear to be in general conformance with current accessibility standards.
Storage at Central Park is maxed out and it was reported by staff that chairs and tables are stored in an outdoor storage area that while covered, allows for dust and dirt to cover chairs and tables while being stored and that they need to be washed off prior to use in the community center for public events. The exterior of the facilities are performing well, however, exposed wood members and some doors are in need of painting, and accessible signage should be installed identifying areas of accessibility compliance.
Most items noted are typical maintenance items that should be addressed mid to long range and are summarized below. Items of more immediate need are related to accessibility and creation of additional enclosed storage areas.
Community Center at Civic Center
The Community Center at the Civic Center is not supported by any other outdoor or open space and shares a footprint with other City functions such as administration, building and planning, city council, and parks and recreation. Each function is a distinct from the other and the community center operates as a stand-alone component.
There is an adjacent parking structure providing adequate parking, accessible path of travel, and accessible parking.
The community center is capable of hosting a variety of functions and includes a large community room that is dividable, a stage area, kitchen, storage, and smaller rooms for smaller community activities and classes. The community center has multiple rooms for storage, however, other rooms not designed for storage are used to store items such as seasonal decorations, chairs, and tables.
The community center also has offices for parks and recreation administration functions. The offices are in good working order and are well maintained, and no operational issues were noted during the tour or by staff. There are no dedicated restrooms for use by staff as they need to use Tool 4: Recreation Facility Assessment 96

2 Stanton Park Facility Assessment Executive Summary Rubio Medina, Architect the public restrooms in the lobby. There are two existing shower areas that are currently not being used and instead are being used for storage.
Most items noted are typical maintenance items that should be addressed mid to long range and are summarized below. Items of more immediate need are related to accessibility including door hardware, chair lift, and public restrooms.
Harry M Dotson Park
The Harry M Dotson Park consists of two modular structures on-site: a public restroom modular and a community room modular.
It was reported by staff that the modular community room was previously used to house 24-hour occupants but since that program was discontinued the facility is not being used for any purpose at the moment.
Parking is adjacent to the park and the community rooms/restroom modulars and is provided with accessible parking and accessible path of travel. All appear to be in general conformance with current accessibility standards.
As the Harry M Dotson facilities are not being used there were no items to note that require attention. It would be suggested that as part of the overall parks master plan a use be identified for this facility and it either be replaced or modified to provide additional amenities to the community and the park.

Due to the nature of the Harry M Dotson Park outreach building not currently being used by city personnel or the public, the facility is in excellent condition and there is little to no maintenance required currently. It would be suggested that the modular be either repurposed for a community need with necessary accessibility requirements or be replaced by a new structure that can address any needs of the park and the community to include public restrooms.
In general, the public restrooms are performing well and it was noted by staff and confirmed that the hollow metal door frames and doors are deteriorating due to the proximity and use of the splash pad nearby.

Benchmark Assessment
This assessment is a comparison of the City of Stanton’s parks with similar communities in the surrounding region of northwest Orange County. A review, study, and benchmark of Stanton’s performance compared to communities with similar characteristics in population, demographics, and cultural make-up is a tool to help the City answer the question, “how are we doing?”
The City of La Palma, Fountain Valley, and Westminster were selected due to proximity, size, and demographics.
This assessment measures components of Stanton’s parks system and provides a comparison with similar organizations for the purpose of identifying and evaluating potential opportunities to raise the bar with an aim of increasing some aspect of the City’s performance.
With respect to the data reported, it is important to understand variances will exist with information due to how each agency collects, maintains, and reports its data. Minor variations are common, but any significant variation will be noted. These variations may impact per capita comparisons and allocation data within the budget. The comparisons and metrics in this benchmark must be viewed with this in mind.
For additional perspective beyond this benchmark comparison, the National Parks and Recreation Association (NRPA) provides similar metrics to assist the City in evaluating and measuring its performance. The 2022 NRPA Agency Performance Review provides a comprehensive resource of data and insights for park and recreation agencies in the United States. The 2022 NRPA Agency Performance Review highlights 27 of the most critical park and recreation metrics collected from the NRPA Park Metrics database.

Who is Stanton?
A Community Profile
Understanding the demographic
context of a community can create a
valuable perspective for understanding
current parks and recreation facility
and program requirements and,
moreover, for anticipating parks and
recreation facility and program needs
in the future. A complete demographics
analysis was developed utilizing the
2022 Environmental Systems Research
Institute (Esri) 2022 demographic
datasets. With this information a
deeper understanding of “whom” the
community is and “where” they are
geographically and economically.
Six community characteristics have
been prepared as a foundation for
understanding City residents’ recreation
needs and preferences now and in the
future.
• Population estimates and forecasts
• Age distribution
• Racial and ethnic character
• Household information
• Household income
• Tapestry lifemode groups
POPULATION ESTIMATES AND FORECASTS
Exhibit 2, Stanton Population Growth,
presents a twenty year history of population decline within the area. As the data illustrates, the population during the 2010 to 2022 time frame increased from 37,533 residents to 38,134 residents, reflecting a 1.6% change, with approximately 50 new residents documented each year on average.
The Esri forecast data set indicates this trend will slow down and the population will decrease slightly to 38,110 by 2027. The five year growth from 2022 to 2027 of -0.1% is below the County’s average growth rate of 2.5% change from 2022 to 2027.
Using the projected population growth pattern and housing unit growth, the forecasted population for Stanton in 2032 is 38,282.

1. Please have more garden plot spots and dog parks and larger dog areas.
More green areas, Stanton has too many streets and less available bike accessible areas and needs more open areas for people to bike and walk.
2. We need more skateparks and bicycle access. The new parks and updates are great, but we otherwise have many aging parks with damaged playground surfaces. Please consider adding a pump track to one of our larger parks. A pump track is a series of bumps and berms designed to ride a bike, skateboard, skates, or scooter around without pedaling or pushing.
Instead, you pump on the downhills similar to riding a half pipe. There are no pump tracks in our immediate area, and it would be a big draw for the city. Thank you for the consideration and any feedback that you can provide.
3. We need more parking at the parks and playgrounds made bigger for toddlers. Also better accessibility for people with disabilities.
4. Parks are great when they are well maintained. I'd like to see our parks charge a small entrance fee ($2-$5) to allow for the hiring of a park ranger that can keep watch over it. I'd also like to see our parks feature less grass and more trees and water features. Native shrubs and drought tolerant plants would also be welcomed. Milkweed would be a great addition, as the Monarch butterflies do transit through this area.
5. As a teenager transitioning into an adult, I have seen significant changes throughout the city. Growing up, I would always go to the park with my parents. I believe an eye-appealing structure, good ground environment, and safety rules makes a great park. An aspect that is vital would be sanctuary. It is important the park looks nice.
6. There is more lighting in many areas needed, homeless population is growing near the businesses and train tracks making it unsafe for residence at times, A pond or fountain would be nice, dog drinking fountain so the owners do not let their pets drink from the public fountains, better cushion for the playground areas because those wood chips are not safe; children can get splinters when they fall down. Also a covering for shade over the tables especially on hot days while the parents are watching their children play in the water sprinkler areas.
7. I think the new parks are great but I'd like to suggest we start being a bikefriendly city and have bike paths through and eventually connecting our parks.
Tool 7: Community Engagement 151
8. I would like to see newer and more interesting playgrounds in the City. Also park hours - closes so early in winter when it gets dark early. Gates at Dotson, are they necessary? Sometimes they are locked until the afternoon.
9. Por favor conservea los arboles y ojala se puede construir una alberca, pues mucha gente estaria feliz con eso sobre todo nuestra ninos. Tambien opino que deberian hacer banos con regadera para que las personas sin hogar pudieran tomar un bano.
Please conserve the trees and hopefully a pool can be built, because many people would be happy with that, especially our children. I also think that they should make bathrooms with showers so that homeless people can take a bath.
10. Me gusto la presentacion y que nuestros comentarios, se tomen en cuenta.
Me gustaria que haya una alberea, comunitaria, parque para perros y clases de sumba y repostería. Muchas gracias por su tiempo.
I liked the presentation and that our comments are taken into account. I would like there to be a pool, community, dog park and zumba and pastry classes. Thank you very much for your time.
11. We need better equipment, maintenance, and more patrol for Hollenbeck Park. Holes/dips on track need to be filled

The Stanton Parks Master Plan serves as a guide and implementation tool for the management and development of parks, recreation facilities, and programs throughout City of Stanton | Parks Master Plan
the city. This document represents a summary of the extensive community outreach, research, and professional site analysis. The culminating result is a community inspired plan for the future of parks and recreation in Stanton .
The process began with a review of pertinent planning documents, existing park resources, and recreation opportunities. Following the initial inventory an extensive community outreach campaign was developed. In-Person and live streaming online video presentations, one on one stakeholder interviews, public online surveys, and direct website feedback. A statistically valid multimodal survey was conducted prior to the development of the master plan in early 2022 to collect the community views on parks and recreation in the city. The information collected was also included in the development of the master plan recommendations. Throughout the process, project updates and summary results were posted to the project website. This website enabled community members to review updates and provide immediate feedback at any point in time. The combination of all these outreach methods enabled anyone in the community to have a voice in the process regardless of when and where meetings were held.
The following are key strategies developed to balance the available inventory with the community recreational desires.

Park acreage by park type summary
• Mini Parks 1.56 Acres
• Neighborhood Parks 35.95 Acres
• Recreation Facility or Special Use? 0.65 Acres
Total City Park Acreage 37.51 Acres
Based on the park acreage identified above and the City’s 2022 population of 38,134 the city currently has:
• 0.98 acres of developed parks per 1000 residents
• 0.94 acres of neighborhood parks per 1000 residents
Tool 10: Park/Facility/Program Recommendations 184
The City needs approximately 77 acres (114.4 acres of parkland total) of additional parkland in order to reach the 3 acres per 1,000 parkland acreage goal.
Opportunities for new park development are very limited. Existing open space in the City which may be suitable for recreation purposes include: utility transmission corridors, areas along the banks of flood control channels, and abandoned railways.
Additional opportunities to increase the City’s park acreage may consider the joint use of public school athletic fields.

Parks and Recreation Community Services Department
The Parks and Recreation Services Community Services Department currently operates public park facilities within the city of Stanton. The Stanton park system is comprised of seven neighborhood parks, including: Stanton Park, Harry M. Dotson Park, Hollenbeck Park, Stanton Central Park Tennis Courts, Martha Weishaupt Linear Park, Norm Ross Sports Complex Fields, and Veterans Memorial Park, and Date & Katella Pocket Park, as well as two mini parks, Zuniga and Premier Parks. Stanton Park, is the city’s largest park, located on land leased from The Southern California Edison Company. Because of the presence of high-voltage power lines, only limited passive uses are allowed within Stanton Parkthis park and Hollenbeck Park.
Elementary and high schools provide an additional amenity to many residents by allowing youth sports leagues to play on their fields and grounds. The city currently has a joint agreement with the Garden Grove School District to use a portion of Carter Elementary School the Carver Campus Early Childhood Education Site as an additional facility for the Norm Ross Sports Complex.
In November 2005 2023, the city adopted the Parks and Recreation Master Plan for the city of Stanton. This plan examines existing parks and recreation facilities as well as recommendations and plans for future facilities within the city. According to this plan, Stanton has a park ratio of .98 0.94 acres per 1,000 residents, which is significantly lower than the Subdivision Map Act and Quimby Act (Section 66477 of the Government Code) criteria of three acres per 1,000 people. It indicates that while the city may not realistically be able to meet the state standard of parkland due to its lack of vacant land and natural resources such as beaches, wetlands, state, or national parks, the city can develop a standard of providing facilities to meet community demand.
In addition to park facilities, the Parks and Recreation Community Services Department operates the 3,500 square-foot Stanton Family Resource Center Community Services Center, located at 11822 Santa Paula Avenue. This facility provides a variety of recreational, educational, social and human service programs provided through the efforts of the Stanton Collaborative and a Families and Communities Together (FaCT) Grant from the County of Orange’s Social Services Agency. Table 5-2, Existing Parks and Recreational Facilities shows the location and size of each of the parks and recreational facilities operated by the Parks and Recreation Department.

CITY OF STANTON
PARKS MASTER PLAN
OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE PLAN
The City of Stanton’s 2022/23 Budget describes the Public Works Department mission as:
“To manage the City’s infrastructure by administering planning, programming, budgeting, construction, and providing maintenance in the most cost-effective method to meet the needs of the community.” The maintenance of the City’s parks and facilities is critical to Community Services fulfilling its mission, “To enhance the quality of life by providing diverse opportunities in a healthy community through an integrated system of Parks, Recreation, Cultural and Human Services programs for people of all ages and abilities”.
An Operations and Maintenance Plan clearly defines the program, requirements, schedules, and the action plans. A quality park design and a quality maintenance plan are integral to the City’s success. As an example, sports fields with a hybrid bermuda grass are more durable and are better suited to hold up to the activity on active sports fields. This Plan will assist the City’s operations and maintenance team by establishing a roadmap for the City of Stanton’s success with maintaining these valuable assets.
In today’s consumer-oriented society, park guests are focused on the end product or service and not particularly concerned with what needs to be done and how frequently it needs to be done to provide well-maintained and attractive community facilities, amenities, and park spaces. Maintenance standards need to focus on outcomes from the standpoint of the recreation users and may be supported with training and information on processes (what needs to be done) and outputs (how frequently particular maintenance functions need to be done) to achieve desired outcomes.
An Operations and Maintenance Plan is a living document that must be reviewed, updated, and evaluated throughout the year. A quality plan will support the City and improve its process to identify, justify, and prioritize the maintenance and work efforts needed for its parks, play spaces, and community centers.
Tool 12: Operations & Maintenance Plan 192
789.05 Stanton Parks Master Plan/Operations and Maintenance Plan Page 2 of 24 The City of Stanton’s parks and facilities are maintained by a dedicated team of contract professionals and a small dedicated team in the Public Works Department.
In our tour and assessment, the consultant team found well-maintained park areas and other park areas that need immediate attention.
The Community Services Department provides a variety of programs and services, and manages the City’s parks with maintenance support from its Public Works Department. It is critical for the two departments to communicate and to work together. As an example, the program and permits team must work in collaboration with maintenance team to ensure success. Unlimited resources and exceptional maintenance practices cannot succeed with an overscheduled or mismanaged sports field. Similarly, a new or resurfaced tennis, basketball, or other sports court surface can be damaged and will decline quickly with activities not appropriate for the court surfacing, such as skateboarding, roller hockey, bicycles, and activities with participants not wearing appropriate footwear.
The observations of our consultant team were mixed with some positive and some not so positive observations. The City has a very small maintenance team supported by a few contract maintenance service providers, such as Venco Western the City’s landscape maintenance provider.
One of the common themes and concerns with the parks is challenges with the tennis and basketball court surfacing, and deterioration with the rubber playground safety surfacing. Some of the basketball courts are scheduled for resurfacing and some of the work is already underway. There are several parks with the pour-in-place playground safety surface in need of immediate attention.
The City utilizes an inhouse Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS), but has not evaluated or implemented a lifecycle management program for its parks, amenities, and the assets in its park system. As time permits, the City is encouraged to populate its CMMS software with scheduled and programmed maintenance. As an example, a recurring workorder can be placed in the system to alert staff when it is time to 1) resurface playgrounds or sports courts; 2) inspect sports field lighting; and 3) to inspect the City’s irrigation system. These programmed/ scheduled work orders can also include staff alerts when it is time for a contractor to complete specific work tasks. These reminders will assist staff in monitoring and assessing the work product of its contractors.
Tool 12: Operations & Maintenance Plan 193
789.05 Stanton Parks Master Plan/Operations and Maintenance Plan Page 3 of 24 Stanton Parks Maintenance Budget
The Parks Maintenance Budget has increased 25.8% in the past five years, with an average annual increase during that time span of 6.5%. The personnel salaries and benefits were the most significant increase in the past five years at 62.6%, with significant increases during the past two budget cycles with more than a 20.9% increase in 21/22 and 11.5% in 22/23.
Purpose of a Maintenance Management Plan
It is important for the City of Stanton to evaluate, analyze, and to understand all of the ongoing costs associated with its public spaces. Understanding an agencies total cost for the maintenance of its parks, amenities, and public spaces begins with a quality maintenance program, but there are many vital steps needed to ensure success.
A quality maintenance program for parks, buildings, and a community’s assets requires a plan, a team, a schedule, and a program. Understanding all of the maintenance needs for a park includes the specific needs, expectations, and the preventive maintenance necessary for each asset or amenity within a park. For example, an asset with an expected lifespan of 15-years, will typically require following the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance practices to reach this projected lifespan. A replacement plan should be proactively established with funding ready for its replacement at 15-years.
It is common for agencies to install a beautiful new amenity in a park and to move on to the next project without considering the ongoing maintenance needs, the expected lifespan, and to create a strategy for replacement of the amenity at the projected end of its lifespan. As agencies fall behind, the maintenance team has more work than they can handle and simply react to and address one failing amenity after another.
Managing and tracking these maintenance needs is important and can be completed with a CMMS or other scheduling, tracking, or data base-oriented software. There are a number of CMMS software packages available that were designed for this specific purpose. They can provide a schedule, work orders, and can track completed work, but they require a plan and the collective efforts of the Tool 12: Operations & Maintenance Plan 194
789.05 Stanton Parks Master Plan/Operations and Maintenance Plan Page 4 of 24 entire team. The City of Stanton manages and tracks its maintenance work orders with a software application developed in-house.
These CMMS applications provide the operation a central repository for all maintenance data; however, the quality of the application’s output is determined by the quality of the input. As a simple example, the applications are more helpful when they are used proactively to schedule all of the necessary, anticipated, and ongoing maintenance tasks.
These tools and applications require buy-in from the entire team. If properly setup and utilized, the CMMS will include detailed information about each park and each of its critical assets and amenities. A CMMS allows maintenance managers to monitor the data in real-time while using historical data to analyze and improve their maintenance performance. Optimizing inventory and procurement systems are additional benefits from using CMMS software. CMMS applications typically include features that managers can use to schedule maintenance activities, order supplies, issue requests, and prepare reports.
The lifespan and maintenance needs of an asset or amenity will vary largely due to its activity and use. More use on a soccer field or a tennis court will directly impact its maintenance needs. This is where it is important for the maintenance team and the programs/permits team to work together. Examples include establishing a number of acceptable hours for the scheduled use of a soccer field, training staff in Community Services on required work tasks when the maintenance team is not present. Examples of a work task include when a field should be closed during inclement weather, what can be done to assist the maintenance team on a rainy day, dragging fields between games on weekends, and mound work before closing a baseball field for the night.
Preventive maintenance, scheduled, and planned maintenance is necessary with every asset. As we all know with our personal automobile – our car needs an oil and filter change, and it needs its tires and windshield wipers checked/replaced at a specific date/number of miles. Neglecting replacement of tires or windshield wipers can create safety concerns, while neglecting oil changes and filter replacements can create premature failure of the engine and other vital components in the car.
Similar examples are present for our public parks and amenities. The cost to purchase an asset or amenity is only a start with understanding the total cost of ownership.
Just as it is with a personal automobile, we need a big picture view of an asset and its costs over the lifespan, from purchase to disposal, and replacement. These costs include scheduled service, repairs, maintenance, refurbishment, and planned replacement. If this assessment is done well, it will improve the City’s understanding of the ongoing direct and indirect costs of these assets, and will help the City make more informed financial decisions in the future. The assessment of these costs Tool 12: Operations & Maintenance Plan 195
789.05 Stanton Parks Master Plan/Operations and Maintenance Plan Page 5 of 24 provides a tool to assist the City in using limited resources more effectively, with more emphasis on preventive maintenance rather than reacting to asset failures.
Focusing on preventive maintenance will result in less disruptions and fewer expenses due to these asset failures.
Prioritizing, scheduling, and planning for these preventative maintenance tasks will help the City remain operational, maintain safety in its parks, and will help the City with its planning and budget.

RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The following provides recommendations and performance standards for park maintenance. As shared earlier, any performance standards or operating procedure should be considered a living document that must be reviewed, updated, and evaluated throughout the year. Adopted standards and a quality plan will support the City and improve its process to identify, justify, and prioritize the maintenance and work efforts needed for its parks, play spaces, and community centers.
TURF MAINTENANCE
1. All turf areas shall be mowed once per week. The schedule for each park shall ensure mowing is complete on the same day of the week.
2. All turf grass borders shall be neatly and uniformly edged or trimmed concurrent with each mowing.
3. Cutting heights shall be adjusted according to the type of grass in accordance with the following:
Grass Type Schedule Cutting Heights
