2. Brengle Terrace Park Improvements

3. Park Site on Matagual Dirve

4. Future Parks

The June 24, 2025 City Council agenda report regarding the Parks & Recreation Master Plan is included as Exhibit 4 for reference.

On October 27, 2025, the PRC received the final Parks & Recreation Master Plan report update, which included the final elements of the plan. This included key findings from community meetings, assessments, level of service analysis, and equity mapping, and recommended it to move forward to City Council.

The final comprehensive draft plan was posted for public review and comment on November 18, 2025. A total of 24 public comments were received through December 1, 2025, and are attached as Exhibit 3. The draft was also sent to Commissioners, and posted on https://www.planvistaparks.com/. Residents expressed strong overall support for new and upgraded recreational amenities, including expanded playgrounds, splash pads, walking paths, picnic areas, fitness equipment, bathrooms, and dog parks. Many families emphasized that these improvements are long overdue and will greatly enhance community use.

Common requests from the comments received included:
• Better lighting, especially for early evening play
• Improved ADA accessibility throughout facilities and trails • Increased maintenance, including trash removal, habitat restoration, and weed management. • Enhanced trails, including clearing overgrowth, adding benches, repairing railings, and addressing encampments
• Additional features such as tennis courts, pump tracks, basketball or pickleball options, and more off- leash dog areas.
• Clear strategies to manage homeless activity, including locking restrooms after hours, secure fencing, lighting, and gating of parking areas.

Several residents stressed the importance of considering impacts on nearby neighborhoods, including noise, parking, traffic, and overall park intensity. Some requested scaled- down designs, sound studies, and additional engagement with adjacent communities. Additionally, a public comment was submitted regarding concerns and petition regarding the Breeze Hill Park concept, which will return to the Parks and Recreation Commission for further discussion and review as the plan is developed.

Key Findings
The Parks & Recreation Master Plan is more than just a document; it is a roadmap to a healthier, more connected, and more vibrant Vista. Additionally, as noted previously, the plan includes site specific design concepts for four different sites that serve a broad group of community members in Vista. Through visionary leadership and community collaboration, the City is poised to elevate recreation, strengthen neighborhoods, and create meaningful opportunities for generations to come. It is important to note that this is a living 12/09/2025

document that will evolve over time as projects progress. The Plan is intended to be used for park project and Capital Improvement budgeting and planning purposes and should be updated every five years.

Community Profile
o More than half of the residents identify as Hispanic/Latino o Median Age is 34.2
o Increasing Adults Ages 55+
o Although 51 percent of residents live within a 10- minute walk of a park slightly below national benchmarks, strong participation in programs, high satisfaction with parks, and strong support for arts and fitness signal a community deeply engaged with its recreation system.

Community Priorities
Over 1,200 voices informed the priorities, investments, and “next practices” that shape this vision for Vista’s future. This included:
o 413 Statistically Valid Surveys
o 724 Online Community Surveys
o 8 Key Leader/Stakeholder Interviews & Focus Groups
o 2 Public Input Meetings

Public engagement including statistically valid survey results, online surveys, public workshops, website input from www.PlanVistaParks.com, focus groups, and key leader interviews revealed consistent themes across all audiences:
o Safety, Lighting & Cleanliness: The community’s top priority. Residents emphasized improved lighting, restroom upgrades, visible security, and cleaner parks. o Trails, Walking & Connectivity: Walking paths, expanded multi-use trails, and improved east–west connectivity were strongly supported.
o Splash Pads & Aquatics: Families and youth overwhelmingly requested splash pads and improved aquatics options at the Wave Waterpark.
o Sports, Pickleball & Outdoor Fitness: More multi-use fields, pickleball courts, and fitness stations are needed to meet rising demand.
o Inclusivity & Multigenerational Spaces: All-abilities playgrounds, teen amenities, senior programs, and cultural enrichment are key expectations.
o Maintenance & Upkeep: Residents value high- quality maintenance and want consistent, visible standards across all parks.
o Partnerships & Communication: Strong community partnerships exist and should be expanded to increase program reach, reduce costs, and strengthen engagement.

Stakeholders also highlighted Vista's unique strengths including responsive staff, signature facilities such as the Wave Waterpark, Moonlight Amphitheatre, the Botanical Gardens, and diverse program offerings.

Priorities for Facility Investments
The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) was developed by ETC Institute, who administered the statistically reliable survey, to provide organizations with an objective tool for evaluating the priority that should be placed on recreation and parks investments. The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) equally weighs (1) the importance that residents place on facilities and (2) the extent of unmet needs that residents have for the facilities.

Based on the Priority Investment Rating (PIR), the following facilities were rated as high priorities for investment:
o Multi-use hiking, biking, walking trails (PIR=200)
o Walking paths in parks (PIR=148)
o Large community parks (PIR=142)
o Swimming pools (PIR=130)

o Small neighborhood parks (PIR=126)
o Open space conservation areas (PIR=119)
o Off-leash dog park (PIR=119)
o Environmental/nature education center (PIR=111)

Priorities of Program Investments
The PIR had the following programs rated as high priorities for investment:
o Adult fitness & wellness programs (PIR=200)
o Outdoor environmental/nature camps & programs (PIR=175) o Water fitness programs/lap swimming (PIR=146)
o Cultural enrichment programs (PIR=139)
o Senior programs (PIR=133)
o Adult visual arts/crafts programs (PIR=120)
o Special events (PIR=117)
o Swim lessons (PIR=112)

Charts showing a comprehensive Priority Investment Rating for the 25 assessed facilities in the survey, and 24 assessed programs are found in the Executive Summary, included in Exhibit 2.

Parks and Facility Evaluations
All parks in the City were assessed across a variety of conditions and rated accordingly. Based on the analysis, sites such as Vista Sports Park were highly rated while some parks were in need of improvement .

Shade, restrooms, lighting, play features, and sports infrastructure were the most cited needs. T he methodology and summary ratings of each park site are provided below.

Level of Service & Equity Mapping
Level of Service (LOS) Standards provide a framework for assessing the availability, distribution, and accessibility of parks, facilities, and amenities throughout the City. By comparing this inventory against the City’s current population, the analysis helps determine how effectively the community’s recreational needs are being met today and where opportunities exist to enhance future access and equity.

These standards guide decision- making around park development, facility improvements, and service delivery. They are informed by multiple sources, including National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) guidelines, 2024 national participation trends from the Sports and Fitness Industry Association (SFIA), feedback from community members and stakeholders, findings from the statistically valid survey, and input from City staff.

The Level of Service (LOS) analysis also accounts for the role of other providers within and around Vista to create a comprehensive view of available resources. While LOS standards are not universal benchmarks, they serve as valuable tools for identifying system strengths, gaps, and opportunities helping shape future investments that align with Vista’s growth, demographics, and evolving recreational priorities. These recommended standards are then used to develop the equity mapping that showcases the gaps and overlaps in offerings across the system. The LOS incorporates all city owned inventory and any other comparable service providers (e.g., schools) that provide access to Vista residents for parks and recreation amenities.

To that end, the Consulting Team captured all inventory provided by city staff and assigned a recommended LOS for each park and amenity type.

Based on this matrix, the city (in 2025) has a need for Neighborhood and Mini Parks, Basketball Courts, Tennis Courts, Multipurpose Fields, Playgrounds, Picnic Shelters, Shade Structures, Outdoor Pool, Splash Pad, Dog Park, and Indoor Fitness and Recreation amenities.

SUBJECT: PARKS & RECREATION MASTER PLAN – FINAL DRAFT
For 2035, based on already planned and upcoming developments by the city, the needs for Mini Parks, Playgrounds, Shade Structures, Splash Pads and Dogs Parks will be met. For quick reference, the LOS Chart is included on the following page and on page 11 of the Parks & Recreation Master Plan (Exhibit 2).

Equity Mapping and Service Area Analysis provides a clear picture of how parks, facilities, and recreation amenities are distributed throughout the City and how well they align with population density, neighborhood characteristics, and community needs. Using recommended service levels for each park and amenity type, these maps help identify areas that may be underserved or overserved.

By comparing geographic access with population -based standards, the City can identify service gaps and prioritize investments that improve equity across the park system. This approach ensures that future capital improvements not only address system-wide needs but also enhance fair and inclusive access to recreation opportunities for all Vista residents. The various service area rings also illustrate the reach of both City and non-City providers, reflecting the broader network of recreation resources available to the community.

The maps are developed for the following amenities:
o Community Parks
o Mini Parks
o Neighborhood Parks
o Regional Parks
o Ball Fields (Diamond)
o Basketball Courts
o Dog Parks
o Indoor Fitness / Recreation Space
o Multipurpose Fields
o Outdoor Pools
o Pickleball Courts
o Picnic Shelters
o Playground
o Shade Structures
o Skate Parks
o Splash Pads
o Tennis Courts

Maps are included on pages 135 through 156 of the final Parks & Recreation Master Plan (Exhibit 2).

CIP and Funding Strategies

The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) serves as a strategic framework for prioritizing, funding, and delivering critical infrastructure projects that enhance the city’s livability . Vista utilizes a variety of existing funding sources to make these initiatives possible, including General Fund, DIF, CDBG and various potential grant opportunities.

To provide greater clarity and transparency, the CIP is organized into three distinct categories:
o Projects that are planned and have secured funding
o Projects that are planned but not yet funded
o Projects that have been completed in the last several years

The table below shows upcoming planned projects including new park sites at Matagual Park, Breeze Hill Park, and Paseo Buena Vista Park and improvements to Brengle Terrace Park.

Visioning
Recreation and Community Services Department staff participated in a visioning session to define the shared values, mission, and strategic priorities. Through this collaborative process, staff identified a set of core values that represent the foundation of their work, a mission statement that reflects their collective purpose, and a series of Big Moves that outline the bold actions needed to advance Vista’s parks and recreation system.

4 CHAPTER ONE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1.1 INTRODUCTION
The City of Vista envisioned a bold future of play, wellness, and community connection for all who call Vista home. To achieve that goal, the Recreation and Community Services Department (“Department”) partnered with national leaders in innovative and inclusive planning Next Practice Partners to develop this Master Plan (“Plan”). In collaboration with City leadership, staff, and thousands of voices from across the community, this plan builds on Vista’s proud history while charting a forward-looking path for the next decade and beyond.

As Vista continues to grow and evolve, so do the expectations of its residents. Parks are no longer simply green spaces, they are essential infrastructure for health, belonging, creativity, and economic vitality. Recreation is no longer limited to programs, it is a catalyst for lifelong learning, multigenerational engagement, and the cultivation of a thriving community culture. This Master Plan embraces these realities, offering a strategic framework that strengthens what Vista does well today while preparing for the next practices that will define tomorrow for parks, programs, Moonlight Amphitheatre, aquatics, etc. all while honoring Vista’s unique character.

The Plan is more than just a document; it is a roadmap to a healthier, more connected, and more vibrant Vista. Additionally, it includes site specific design concepts for four different sites that serve a broad group of community members in Vista. Through visionary leadership and community collaboration, the City is poised to elevate recreation, strengthen neighborhoods, and create meaningful opportunities for generations to come. 12/09/2025

5 1.2 COMMUNITY PROFILE
Vista is a diverse, multigenerational, and rapidly evolving community. With more than half of residents identifying as Hispanic/Latino, a young median age (34.2), and increasing adults ages 55+, Vista’s recreation system must meet the needs of a wide range of cultural, social, and physical interests.

Although 51% of residents live within a 10-minute walk of a park slightly below national benchmarks, strong participation in programs, high satisfaction with parks, and strong support for arts and fitness signal a community deeply engaged with its recreation system.

More information about the community’s demographics and recreation trends can be found in Section 2.3.

1.3 WHAT WE HEARD: COMMUNITY PRIORITIES
This plan reflects extensive engagement with residents, youth, community stakeholders, partner agencies, staff, and civic leaders. Thousands of voices informed the priorities, investments, and “next practices” that shape this vision for Vista’s future. Detailed public input can be found in Chapter 3.

6 Public engagement including statistically valid survey results, online surveys, public workshops, website input from www.PlanVistaParks.com, focus groups, and key leader interviews revealed consistent themes across all audiences:
 Safety, Lighting & Cleanliness: The community’s top priority. Residents emphasized improved lighting, restroom upgrades, visible security, and cleaner parks.  Trails, Walking & Connectivity: Walking paths, expanded multi-use trails, and improved east–west connectivity were strongly supported.
 Splash Pads & Aquatics: Families and youth overwhelmingly requested splash pads and improved aquatics options at the Wave Waterpark.
 Sports, Pickleball & Outdoor Fitness: More multi-use fields, pickleball courts, and fitness stations are needed to meet rising demand.
 Inclusivity & Multigenerational Spaces: All-abilities playgrounds, teen amenities, senior programs, and cultural enrichment are key expectations.  Maintenance & Upkeep: Residents value high-quality maintenance and want consistent, visible standards across all parks.
 Partnerships & Communication: Strong community partnerships exist and should be expanded to increase program reach, reduce costs, and strengthen engagement.

7 Priorities for Facility Investments: The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) was developed by ETC Institute, who administered the statistically reliable survey, to provide organizations with an objective tool for evaluating the priority that should be placed on recreation and parks investments. The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) equally weighs (1) the importance that residents place on facilities and (2) how many residents have unmet needs for the facilities.

Based the Priority Investment Rating (PIR), the following facilities were rated as high priorities for investment:
 Multi-use hiking, biking, walking trails (PIR=200)
 Walking paths in parks (PIR=148)
 Large community parks (PIR=142)
 Swimming pools (PIR=130)
 Small neighborhood parks (PIR=126)
 Open space conservation areas (PIR=119)
 Off-leash dog park (PIR=119)
 Environmental/nature education center (PIR=111)
The chart b e l o w shows the Priority Investment Rating for each of the 25 facilities assessed in the survey.

11 1.4.3 LEVEL OF SERVICE & EQUITY MAPPING
The level of service incorporates all city owned inventory and any other comparable service provider (e.g., schools) that provide access to Vista residents for parks and recreation amenities.

To that end, the Consulting Team captured all inventory provided by city staff and assigned a recommended level of service for each park and amenity type. See detailed inventory and narrative see Section 4.3.

For 2035, based on already planned and upcoming developments by the city, the needs for Mini Parks, Playgrounds, Shade Structures, Splash Pads and Dogs Parks will be met.

16 1.4.5 SITE SPECIFIC MASTER PLANS
As part of the Master Plan, the project team developed site-specific concept plans for four important locations: Breeze Hill Park, Brengle Terrace Park, Matagual Park site, and Paseo Buena Vista. These concept plans provide a forward-looking vision for how each site can improve, evolve, and better serve Vista’s diverse community in the years ahead.

Detailed site plans and costs can be seen in Section 4.7.

BREEZE HILL PARK
The Breeze Hill Concept Plan strengthens the site’s recreational function through targeted amenities supporting multigenerational use. Key improvements include an inclusive playground with integrated shade structures, a splash pad, pickleball courts, fitness equipment, and separated small and large dog parks. Circulation is improved through accessible pathways, while strategically placed shaded seating and flexible turf areas increase usability and support a range of passive and active recreation opportunities.

BRENGLE TERRACE PARK
The Brengle Terrace Park Concept Plan enhances the park’s role as a major community recreation and cultural destination by expanding amenities that support families, active users, and visitors to the Moonlight Amphitheatre.

Key improvements including a new 2–5 age playground, a splash pad, renovated sand volleyball court, picnic shelter, fitness stations, and an accessible pathway network create a more inviting and inclusive environment for everyday use.

Additional features such as new walking paths with shaded seating, expanded parking to serve the Amphitheatre, new disc golf holes, and upgraded connectivity to existing facilities strengthen the park’s capacity to support both daily recreation and large community events.

MATAGUAL PARK
The Matagual Park Concept Plan enhances the park’s function as a neighborhood recreation space by adding amenities that support families, dog owners, and daily visitors. The plan includes an inclusive playground, shaded picnic areas, fitness stations, and separate small and large dog parks, creating a safe and engaging environment for all ages.

Improved circulation through new walking paths, drought-tolerant landscaping, bench seating, and designated viewing point further elevate user comfort and accessibility. Lighting, parking improvements, and site upgrades strengthen the park’s capacity to serve as a reliable community asset.

PASEO BUENA VISTA
The Paseo Buena Vista Park Concept Plan enhances the park’s role as a neighborhood recreation space by incorporating amenities that support both passive use and dog recreation. The plan introduces designated small and large dog parks, shaded picnic tables, bench seating, and a central open lawn to create a comfortable, community-oriented environment.

Additional elements including walking paths, drought-tolerant landscaping, and the Great Oak Reflection seat wall improve accessibility, aesthetics, and user comfort. Lighting and site improvements further support safety and usability for daily park visitors.

22 CHAPTER TWO COMMUNITY PROFILE

2.1 OVERVIEW
A key component of the Needs Assessment and Comprehensive Action Plan (“Plan”) is a Community Profile. The purpose of this analysis is to provide the Recreation and Community Services Department (“Department”) with insight into the community it serves. It also helps quantify the market in and around the City of Vista (“City”) and assists in providing a better understanding of the types of parks, facilities, programs, and services that are most appropriate to equitably address the residents’ needs.

2.1.1 LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT
As a formal recognition, we acknowledge with respect that the land the city is on is the traditional territory of the Luiseño tribe.

We express our honor and deep respect towards the indigenous communities for their exceptional care of this land for generations, while ensuring historical and ongoing injustices with unwavering resilience. We endeavor to work towards reconciliation and to uphold the voices and sovereignty of indigenous peoples as a fundamental commitment towards helping build equitable and inclusive communities.

2.2 LIVABILITY AND ACCESS
The community profile report prioritizes a thorough evaluation of the city's livability and accessibility. This involves analyzing the cost of living, assessing how close residents live to parks, and determining tree equity in the city. By examining these factors, we gain valuable insights into the city's overall quality of life. These findings also serve as a guide for future strategic planning and development aimed at improving accessibility and enriching the living conditions for all residents.

23 2.2.1 COST OF LIVING
The cost-of-living index is a measure of how expensive it is to live in a particular area or city compared to another area or city. The index is typically calculated by comparing the prices of a basket of goods and services, such as housing, transportation, food, healthcare, and utilities in different locations.

For detailed information, see www.bestplaces.net/cost_of_living/city/california/vista.

The national cost-of-living index
in the United States (US) is set
at 100, and the cost-of-living
index for a specific city or
region is typically reported as a
percentage of the national
average.

For example, the overall cost-
of-living index for Vista is
147.4, which means that it is 47.4% more expensive to live in Vista than the national US average.

When compared to the state average, the overall cost of living in Vista, California is slightly lower (147.4 to 149.9). Housing costs are comparable in both (236.6 in Vista vs. 234.8 in California), but grocery and miscellaneous expenses are higher in Vista, with indexes of 108.1 and 153.9, respectively. Vista's transportation cost is less than the state's (120.9 vs. 133.1), and health care and utilities costs are also marginally lower than the state average.

24 2.2.2 10-MINUTE WALK
The Trust for Public Land in partnership with the
National Recreation and Park Association and
the Urban Land Institute, launched the "10-
Minute Walk Program" aimed at helping cities
expand access to green spaces for all.

The Trust for Public Land has conducted
research, which has revealed that parks that
predominantly cater to people of color are, on
average, only half the size of parks that primarily
serve white populations. Despite their smaller
size, these parks serve nearly five times as many
people. Additionally, parks that primarily serve
low-income households are, on average, four
times smaller than parks that serve high-income
households.

The current statistics indicate that 51% of the
residents of Vista have a park within a 10-minute walk from their homes, which means over 50,000 residents in Vista do not have a park within a 10-minute walk of their home. This percentage is slightly lower than the national median of 55%.

Additional information about the “10-Minute Walk Program” can be found at:
https://www.tpl.org.

25 2.2.3 TREE EQUITY
A Tree Equity Score is a method used by cities to
evaluate how effectively they are providing fair
access to tree canopy coverage for all residents.

This score uses a combination of factors, such as
the need for tree canopy coverage and the priority
for planting trees in urban neighborhoods (which
are defined by Census Block Groups). It is based on
data related to tree canopy coverage, climate,
demographics, and socioeconomics.

The score is calculated at the neighborhood (block)
level and then aggregated to the municipal level to
provide an overall assessment of the city’s
performance in delivering equitable tree canopy
coverage.

Vista currently has a tree equity score of 75.

Of the 38 block groups in Vista,
 4 have a score above 90
 32 have a score above 75
 2 have a score below 50
Neighborhoods in Vista that are made up of at least
60% residents of color typically exhibit lower tree
equity scores, indicating they have less tree canopy
coverage (see below). Additional information
regarding tree equity can be found at
https://www.treeequityscore.org/

26 2.3 DEMOGRAPHICS
The Demographic Analysis is a report that examines the characteristics of the population in the City including age segments, race, ethnicity, and income levels. It covers the entire population of the City and uses historical patterns to make future projections. It is possible that unforeseen circumstances during or after the time of the analysis could impact the validity of these projections.

2.3.1 METHODOLOGY
The analysis utilized demographic data from two primary sources: the U.S. Census Bureau and the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), a leading organization specializing in Geographic Information Systems and population projections. Data was collected in September 2025 and includes actual counts from the 2020 Census along with the most current estimates available at that time.

Using this information, ESRI provided population estimates for 2025 and projections for 2030.

The consulting team then applied straight-line linear regression to forecast additional demographic trends for 2035 and 2040.

DEMOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS BOUNDARY
The City boundaries shown below were used for the demographic analysis. 12/09/2025

27 2.3.2 CITY POPULACE
Since the 2020 Census, the city’s population has experienced modest growth, increasing from 98,707 to an estimated 99,445 residents in 2025, an average annual growth rate of 0.15%.

Growth is projected to continue gradually, reaching 100,714 residents by 2030, 101,629 by 2035, and 102,633 by 2040. While these increases represent a steady upward trend, they indicate a relatively slow growth pattern compared to national and state averages.

28 2.3.3 AGE
Vista’s median age is 36.5 years, which is than younger than the national median of 39.6, indicating a relatively youthful population. However, demographic trends show a gradual aging over the next 15 years. The proportion of residents aged 55 and older is projected to grow from 25% in 2020 to 30% by 2040, driven primarily by an increase in the 75 and older group, which is expected to double from 5% to 10%. At the same time, the share of residents under age 34 is anticipated to decline from 50% to 40%, reflecting a steady shift toward an older and more mature population composition.

29 2.3.4 RACE & ETHNICITY

RACE AND ETHNICITY DEFINITIONS
The minimum categories for data on race and ethnicity for Federal statistics, program administrative reporting, and civil rights compliance reporting are defined below. The Census 2020 data on race are not directly comparable with data from the 2010 Census and earlier censuses; therefore, caution must be used when interpreting changes in the racial composition of the US population over time. The latest (Census 2020) definitions and nomenclature are used within this analysis.
 American Indian – This includes a person having origins in any of the original peoples of North and South America (including Central America), and who maintains tribal affiliation or community attachment
 Asian – This includes a person having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, or the Indian subcontinent including, for example, Cambodia, China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, the Philippine Islands, Thailand, and Vietnam  Black or African American – This includes a person having origins in any of the black racial groups of Africa
 Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander – This includes a person having origins in any of the original peoples of Hawaii, Guam, Samoa, or other Pacific Islands  White – This includes a person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa
 Hispanic or Latino – This is an ethnic distinction, a subset of a race as defined by the Federal Government; this includes a person of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race Census states that the race and ethnicity categories generally reflect social definitions in the U.S. and are not an attempt to define race and ethnicity biologically, anthropologically, or genetically.

We recognize that the race and ethnicity categories include racial, ethnic, and national origins and sociocultural groups.”
Please Note: The Census Bureau defines Race as a person’s self-identification with one or more of the following social groups: White, Black, or African American, Asian, American Indian and Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander, some other race, or a combination of these. While Ethnicity is defined as whether a person is of Hispanic / Latino origin or not. For this reason, the Hispanic / Latino ethnicity is viewed separate from race throughout this demographic analysis.

12/09/2025
D1
41 of 561

30 RACE
The City of Vista is a minority-majority community, meaning that residents identifying as something other than White Alone collectively make up the majority of the population. This trend is expected to strengthen over time. The percentage of residents identifying as White Alone is projected to decline from 44% in 2020 to 36% by 2040, while populations identifying as Some Other Race and Two or More Races will continue to grow, together representing more than 50% of the community by 2040. These shifts reflect Vista’s ongoing diversification and the city’s rich blend of racial and cultural identities.

ETHNICITY
The City’s population was also evaluated based
on Hispanic/Latino ethnicity, which the Census
Bureau views as separate from race. It is worth
noting that individuals who identify as
Hispanic/Latino may also belong to any of the
racial categories mentioned earlier.

As per the current 2025 estimate,
approximately 52% of the City’s population
identifies as being of Hispanic/Latino origin
which is significantly higher than the national
average of 19%. In the next 15 years, it is
estimated that those identifying as
Hispanic/Latino will continue to grow, reaching
57% of the population.

31 2.3.5 INCOME
Per capita income represents the average income
earned per person, while median household income
reflects the combined income of all household
members aged sixteen and older. In Vista, the per
capita income is $42,246, which is below both the
state average of $50,026 and the national average of
$45,360. However, the city’s median household
income of $101,196 is nearly identical to the
California median of $101,136 and significantly higher
than the national median of $81,624, indicating
relatively strong household earning power despite
lower individual income levels.

32 2.3.6 HISTORICALLY UNDERSERVED POPULATION

CHARACTERISTICS
Vista’s population reflects a rich diversity and unique demographic profile compared to state and national averages. Approximately 32% of residents were born outside the United States, a rate notably higher than both the California average (26.7%) and the national average (13.9%). Nearly 46% of Vista households speak a language other than English at home, also exceeding both state (44.1%) and national (22.0%) levels.

Vista reports lower percentages of residents with a disability (5.1%), without health insurance (4.6%), and living in poverty (7.3%)—each well below state and national averages—indicating relatively strong access to health coverage and economic stability. Additionally, about 34% of households rent their homes, which is lower than both the California rate (44.2%) and the national rate (35.0%), suggesting a higher rate of homeownership within the community.

The Trends Analysis offers insights into recreational trends at the national, regional, and local levels, as well as recreational interests segmented by age. This analysis utilizes data on trends sourced from the Sports & Fitness Industry Association (SFIA), the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA), and Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI). The trends data used in this analysis is based on participation rates that are current or historical and NRPA Park Metrics.

2.4.1 LOCAL SPORT AND LEISURE MARKET POTENTIAL
ESRI provided the following charts showing sports and leisure participation trends for Vista residents. The Market Potential Index (MPI) measures how likely adults in a community are to take part in different activities if they have access to them, compared to the national average. An MPI score of 100 represents the national average—scores above 100 mean residents are more likely to participate, while scores below 100 suggest lower participation potential.

This information helps show what types of activities are most popular or have room to grow in Vista. The data looks across four categories: general sports, fitness, outdoor recreation, and commercial recreation. While MPI data provides useful insight into community interests, it is just one of several tools used to guide program and facility planning.

The charts on the following pages highlight 46 different sports and leisure activities, organized by category and ranked from highest to lowest MPI score. Activities with scores above 100 reflect strong local interest and opportunity for participation, while those below 100 may represent emerging or niche interests within the community.

39 2.4.7 NATIONAL TRENDS IN RECREATION

METHODOLOGY
The Sports & Fitness Industry Association’s (SFIA) Sports, Fitness & Leisure Activities Topline Participation Report 2024 was used to assess national recreation participatory trends. Participation statistics were derived from a nationwide study conducted in 2023 by Sports Marketing Surveys USA (SMS), a Buffalo Groupe Company. This study was guided by SFIA and seven other sports industry associations within the Physical Activity Council (PAC) and was designed and launched by Digital Research (DRI). All other data are attributed to the SFIA/SMS research partnership.

In 2023, a total of 18,000 online interviews were conducted with a representative nationwide sample of individuals from U.S. proprietary online panels, covering people aged six and older.

Strict quotas for gender, age, income, region, and ethnicity were followed to ensure a balanced sample.

The sample size of 18,000 completed interviews provides a high degree of statistical accuracy.

While all surveys are subject to some standard error, the results are highly reliable. For example, a sport with a participation rate of five percent has a confidence interval of plus or minus 0.32 percentage points at the 95 percent confidence level.

A weighting technique was applied to balance the data to reflect the total U.S. population aged six and above. Variables used for weighting included gender, age, income, ethnicity, household size, region, and population density. The total population figure used was 306,931,382 people aged six and older.

All category and activity names follow SFIA terminology.

OVERALL PARTICIPATION IN THE U.S.

The number of active participants in
the U.S.—defined as anyone who
engaged in at least one activity
during the calendar year—has risen
for the 10th consecutive year. In
2013, 213.2 million people were
active, and by 2023, this number had
grown to 242.0 million, marking a

13.5% increase or nearly 30 million
more Americans participating in
activities. This trend indicates that
Americans are increasingly
prioritizing physical activity.

Notably, winter sports, team sports, racquet sports, and water sports all experienced participation growth of over 9%. Winter sports led with a 22% growth rate, followed by team sports at 10.8%. All tracked winter sports saw increased participation, and 20 out of 24 team sports had higher participation rates in 2023 compared to 2022. Team sports participation has surpassed pre- pandemic levels, with 25.7% of Americans aged 6 and older playing a team sport in 2023, compared to 23.4% in 2019.

Racquet sports gained five million more participants in 2023 than in 2022. While most racquet sports saw increased participation, table tennis experienced a slight decline. Pickleball, in particular, continued its rapid rise in popularity, reaching 13.6 million participants in 2023, a

51.8% increase from the previous year and a 223.5% growth since 2020. For context, pickleball's participation is now nearly the size of outdoor soccer, which has 14.1 million participants.

42 INACTIVITY IN THE U.S.

The inactivity rate in the U.S. continued its downward trend in 2023, with 64.9 million people, or

21.2% of Americans, classified as inactive. This marks a 5.3% decrease from the 2022 figure of

68.6 million people and represents the lowest inactivity rate since SFIA began tracking in 2008.

The pandemic has clearly shifted priorities for many Americans. Prior to the pandemic, the inactivity rate remained steady at around 27%. However, since 2020, inactivity has steadily declined, indicating that a focus on active and healthy lifestyles has become the new normal for millions.

In contrast to the previous year, when certain age groups (18-24 and 25-34) saw increases in inactivity, 2023 saw declines in inactivity across all age groups. Furthermore, inactivity rates for every age group in 2023 were significantly lower than in 2018.

While there remains a notable disparity in inactivity rates between income levels—13.1% for households earning over $100,000 compared to 38.2% for those earning under $25,000—it is encouraging that every income level experienced a decrease in inactivity. The most significant reduction occurred in the $50,000-$74,999 income bracket, which saw a 4.1% decrease from the previous year and an 8.5% drop from 2021.

FITNESS
Walking for Fitness remains the most popular activity, with a slight decrease of 0.6% over the past year but maintaining stable participation over the three years (114,039 participants in 2023). This activity's enduring popularity is likely due to its accessibility, minimal equipment requirements, and the ability to incorporate it into daily routines easily. Despite the slight drop in the past year, its stable participation rate over three years suggests it remains a favored choice for many individuals seeking low-impact exercise.

Free Weights (Dumbbells/Hand Weights) is the second most popular activity, showing a modest increase of 1.4% over the past year and a 1.1% increase over three years, reaching 53,858 participants in 2023. This activity's consistent growth indicates a steady interest in strength training and resistance exercises, possibly driven by increased awareness of the benefits of muscle strengthening and the convenience of performing these exercises at home or in gyms.

Running/Jogging, the third most popular activity, has seen a slight increase of 1.0% over the past year, although it experienced a 4.6% decline over the three-year period, with 48,305 participants in 2023. While the recent uptick suggests a rebound in interest, the overall decline may reflect the impact of external factors such as the pandemic, which could have affected outdoor activities and group events like marathons. Nonetheless, running remains a significant fitness activity, valued for its cardiovascular benefits and relatively low cost.

Beyond the top three activities, the data reveals a mix of trends across various other fitness activities. Notably, activities such as Yoga, Stationary Cycling (Recumbent/Upright), and Swimming for Fitness have shown moderate to significant increases in participation. Pilates Training, Barre, and Tai Chi have experienced remarkable growth, indicating a rising interest in diverse forms of exercise that offer flexibility, balance, and low-impact training.

65 3.4 STATISTICALLY VALID SURVEY
ETC Institute administered a parks and recreation/Wave Waterpark needs assessment survey for the City of Vista, California during the winter of 2024-2025. The purpose of the survey was to receive input on a new Parks and Recreation Master Plan and guide decisions about three new parks, improvements to Brengle Terrace Park, and the future of the Wave Waterpark.

3.4.1 METHODOLOGY
ETC Institute mailed a survey packet to a random sample of households throughout the City of Vista. Each survey packet contained a cover letter, a copy of the survey, and a postage-paid return envelope. Residents who received the survey were given the option of returning the survey by mail or completing it online.

After the surveys were mailed, ETC Institute followed up with residents to encourage participation. To prevent people who were not residents of Vista from participating, everyone who completed the survey online was required to enter their home address prior to submitting their survey. ETC Institute then matched the addresses entered online with the addresses originally selected for the random sample. If the address from a survey completed online did not match one of the addresses selected for the sample, the online survey was not included in the final database for this report.

The goal was to receive 350 completed surveys from households within the City of Vista. This goal was exceeded, with 413 completed surveys collected. The overall results for the sample of 413 residents have a precision of at least +/-4.8% at the 95% level of confidence.

87 3.5 SURVEY COMPARISON ANALYSIS
The Survey Comparison Report provides a comprehensive analysis and comparison of findings from two significant surveys conducted for the City of Vista (“City”) Recreation & Community Services Department (Department): the ETC Statistically Valid Survey (“ETC Survey”) and the Online Community Survey (“Online Survey”) via SurveyMonkey.

The objective of these surveys was to gather insightful feedback from the city's residents and park users, aiming to understand their satisfaction levels, preferences, and expectations regarding park facilities, programs, and services offered by the Department.

The ETC Survey, recognized for its rigorous methodology and representative sampling, offers a detailed snapshot of community sentiment and perceptions, providing statistically reliable results.

Conversely, the Online Survey allowed for broader participation, enabling a wide range of stakeholders to express their opinions and preferences.

By comparing the insights gathered from both surveys, this report aims to highlight common trends, divergences, and unique perspectives that emerged from the different methodologies employed. Such a comparative analysis is crucial for the Department's strategic planning and decision-making processes, ensuring that both the statistically significant viewpoints and the broader community feedback are considered in shaping the future of the city's offerings.

Full results from the Statistically Valid Survey can be found in the APPENDIX.

Full results from the Online Community Survey can be found in the APPENDIX.

3.5.1 DEMOGRAPHICS
In the demographic section of this report, we analyze the community demographics served by the Department based on responses from the ETC Survey and the Online Survey. Due to ETC’s approach of random sampling and ensuring a 95% level of confidence and a margin of error of +/- 5%, their survey results more accurately reflect the community’s demographics and are statistically reliable in comparison to online-only surveys.

We examine respondent demographics such as gender, tenure in Vista, and race/ethnicity to gain insights into the community's composition. Our findings are compared with the 2023 demographic estimates from The Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) to understand how the survey data aligns with broader demographic trends.

Full demographic data can be found in Section (Insert link in report).

GENDER

Female 50% 74% 50%
Male 49% 25% 50%
Non-Binary/Self-
describe
1% 1% 0%

The ETC Statistically Valid Survey achieved near-perfect gender balance, with 50% of respondents identifying as female and 49% as male, closely aligning with Vista’s actual demographics. In contrast, the Online Community Survey showed a significant skew, with 74% of respondents identifying as female and only 25% as male, indicating an overrepresentation of women.

Representation of non-binary or self-described individuals was minimal in both surveys, at 1% or less. These differences highlight the strength of the ETC Survey in providing a more accurate and inclusive reflection of the community's gender composition. 12/09/2025

Pacific Islander 1% 1% 1%
Some Other Race 2% 5% 27%
Two or More Races N/A% N/A 19%
Hispanic (Ethnicity) 50% 17% 52%

The ETC Survey closely mirrors Vista’s actual racial and ethnic makeup, with 50% of respondents identifying as White Alone and 50% identifying as Hispanic, compared to 42% and 52% respectively in the actual demographics. In contrast, the Online Community Survey significantly overrepresents White Alone respondents (73%) and underrepresents Hispanic individuals (17%).

Additionally, the ETC Survey underrepresents those identifying as Some Other Race (2%) and does not include a category for Two or More Races, which accounts for 19% of the actual population. These findings reinforce the ETC Survey’s strength in providing a more accurate and representative reflection of Vista’s diverse community.

The ETC Survey offers a strong representation of Vista’s age distribution. The age breakdown of ETC respondents closely aligns with the community, particularly in the 0–19 (28% vs. 30%) and 35–54 (28% vs. 27%) age ranges. The Online Survey overrepresents the youngest age group (0– 19 at 38%) and slightly underrepresents all other groups except 75+, which is consistent across all sources.

The ETC Survey includes a broader spread of ages, especially among adults 55–74 (22%), compared to just 13% in the actual population and 17% in the Online Community Survey, indicating strong engagement from older adults.

3.5.9 SUMMARY
The comparison between the ETC Survey and the Online Survey reveals important insights about community perceptions and priorities. Key findings include:
 ETC Survey results closely match Vista’s actual demographics (gender, age, race/ethnicity), making it a statistically reliable source of community sentiment.  SurveyMonkey responses are skewed, with:
o 74% female respondents (vs. 50% in Vista)
o 73% identifying as White Alone (vs. 42% in Vista)
o Only 17% identifying as Hispanic (vs. 52% in Vista)
o Overrepresentation of respondents under age 20
 Online survey results show:
o Greater engagement in waterpark amenities and programs o Higher preference for family and youth-centered facilities o More emphasis on newer park users and newer residents  Despite sampling differences, both surveys agree on:
o Strong support for walking trails, shade, and large parks o Desire for more adult fitness programs, cultural events, and special events o High levels of satisfaction with current programs and facilities  The ETC Survey provides a statistically valid and demographically balanced view of the Vista community.
 The SurveyMonkey survey reflects the perspectives of more active, engaged, and tech- savvy residents but lacks demographic controls.
 Lived experience, access, and awareness likely shaped who responded and how.

3.5.10 CONCLUSION
While both surveys provide valuable insights, reliance on online only data without context could result in inequitable decision-making. Key considerations include:
 Use ETC Survey data as the primary basis for decision-making.  Supplement with SurveyMonkey data to capture additional ideas and engagement patterns among vocal stakeholders.
 Recognize equity risks in outweighing the online survey, particularly regarding:
o Underrepresented Hispanic and male respondents
o Older adults and longer-term residents
 Enhance future outreach by:
o Offering multilingual, multi-platform survey options
o Targeting underrepresented voices through focused engagement strategies  Balance community feedback by blending statistically valid findings with anecdotal trends, ensuring that all voices are heard in shaping Vista’s parks and recreation future.

By acknowledging and addressing the representational gaps in the online survey, the Department can ensure inclusive, data-informed, and equitable planning decisions. 12/09/2025

4.1.2 COMMUNITY PROFILE
Since 2020, Vista’s population has grown at an annual rate of 1.42%, projected to reach an estimated 106,287 residents by 2038. This growth is marked by a young median age of 34.2, a decrease in the proportion of children under 17, and an anticipated increase in residents aged 55 and above. The community is ethnically diverse, with over half of the population identifying as Hispanic/Latino—a figure expected to reach 57% by 2038.

Vista’s cost of living is 47% higher than the national average, presenting affordability challenges, particularly in housing and groceries, though it remains slightly below the state average. Only 51% of Vista’s residents live within a 10-minute walk to a park, indicating a need for improved park access compared to the national average of 55%. Tree canopy coverage varies across neighborhoods, with Vista scoring 75 on tree equity and lower scores in areas with a higher proportion of residents of color.

The City serves a dynamic, multi-generational population with a diverse cultural background and strong growth among minority populations. To meet the varied needs of its residents, recreational programs should prioritize accessibility, inclusivity, and cultural relevance, supporting both physical and environmental wellness. Enhanced park access and tree coverage, coupled with affordable and diverse recreational offerings, will support the community’s well- being while addressing Vista’s evolving demographic and economic landscape.

More information regarding the community profile can be found HERE.

RECREATION AND LEISURE TRENDS
The Trends Analysis, utilizing the Market Potential Index (MPI) from the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), provides insights into the likelihood that Vista residents will participate in various recreational activities, if accessible. Team sports such as soccer, basketball, volleyball, and baseball show strong community interest, with MPI scores of 139, 117, 114, and 114, respectively, indicating a high likelihood of participation. In contrast, golf and softball have lower MPIs of 80 and 98, suggesting these sports are less favored by the community.

In the fitness and wellness sector, Zumba stands out with an MPI of 132, followed by Pilates (115), aerobics (110), and jogging/running (105), all exceeding national averages and demonstrating a community preference for group and cardiovascular fitness activities. Yoga (101) and weightlifting (99) align more closely with national participation levels, while swimming and walking for exercise fall below average, with MPIs of 89 and 95.

Outdoor and adventure activities reflect a community interested in rock climbing (MPI of 107) and mountain biking (101), both above national averages. However, activities like backpacking (88), horseback riding (82), and freshwater fishing (65) show lower engagement, suggesting limited interest in these pursuits.

Leisure and commercial recreation trends indicate moderate spending on sports and recreational equipment, with expenditure levels generally below national trends. Nonetheless, Vista residents demonstrate strong engagement in social and cultural activities, as seen in higher MPIs for art gallery attendance (110), adult education courses (110), and chess (111), reflecting a community 12/09/2025

4.1.3 COMMUNITY PROGRAMMING PRIORITIES
The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) was developed by ETC Institute to provide organizations with an objective tool for evaluating the priority that should be placed on recreation and parks investments. The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) equally weighs:
(1) the importance that residents place on facilities and (2) how many residents have unmet needs for the programs.

Based the Priority Investment Rating (PIR), the following programs were rated as high priorities for investment:
 Adult fitness & wellness programs (PIR=200)
 Outdoor environmental/nature camps & programs (PIR=175)  Water fitness programs/lap swimming (PIR=146)
 Cultural enrichment programs (PIR=139)
 Senior programs (PIR=133)
 Adult visual arts/crafts programs (PIR=120)
 Special events (PIR=117)
 Swim lessons (PIR=112)
The chart below shows the Priority Investment Rating for each of the 24 programs assessed in the survey.

AGE SEGMENT ANALYSIS
The program distribution data for the Department shows a significant focus on multi- generational or "All Ages" programs, comprising 45% of offerings—more than double the national average of 21%.

However, the Department’s programming for specific age groups, particularly preschool (5%), elementary (10%), and teen (10%) participants, falls below national averages (7%, 28%, and 32%, respectively). Adult (18+) programs account for 25%, slightly under the national average of 35%, while senior (55+) programs are aligned with national trends at 35%, though still below the national benchmark of 49%.

This distribution suggests an emphasis on inclusive programming while highlighting potential opportunities to expand offerings for younger age groups and seniors.

PRICING STRATEGIES
The pricing strategies for the Department’s core program areas vary to address different participant demographics and financial goals. Facility/Park Rentals and The Wave Water Park employ the most diverse strategies, factoring in age segment, family/household status, residency, prime vs. non-prime time, and market rates.

Senior Services utilizes multiple criteria, including family/household status, residency, weekday/weekend timing, and the customer's ability to pay, aiming for inclusivity.

Youth and Adult Programs, while more limited, consider residency, market rate, and ability to pay, with Adult Programs also focusing on cost recovery goals. Cultural Arts programs are priced

This varied strategy highlights the Department’s efforts to balance accessibility, financial sustainability, and responsiveness to community needs across different program areas.

PROGRAM SERVICES CLASSIFICATION
Program classification analysis is a method used to align services with an organization's goals, ensuring a balance between public support and service fees. It categorizes services based on who benefits most and helps guide management strategy through an assessment of public versus private benefits. Services are grouped as Community Benefit, Community-Individual Blend, or Individual Benefit, considering the agency's mission, compliance with legal requirements, financial health, and value to individual users and the wider community.

The staff has organized all recreational programs accordingly, and the current distribution is displayed in the following chart.

The Department’s program distribution emphasizes a balance across community-focused, blended, and individual-benefit services. Community Benefit programs, such as parks, libraries, and free community events, make up 30% of the Department’s offerings, slightly above the national average of 28%.

The largest category, Community-Individual Blend, which includes sports leagues, workshops, and afterschool programs, constitutes 43% of offerings—significantly higher than the national average of 26%. Individual Benefit programs, like rentals, personal training, and special interest camps, account for 26%, which is notably below the national average of 45%.

This distribution reflects the Department’s focus on inclusive and accessible programming that serves both community-wide and individual needs, with an emphasis on blended services.

COST RECOVERY
Understanding cost recovery mechanisms is essential for the Recreation Department’s effective management and provision of community services. The Department classifies its programs into four key financial categories:

Fully Subsidized: These programs rely entirely on public funds, with no direct cost to participants, ensuring accessibility and broad community reach. Examples include Community wide special events and Cultural special events, Senior nutrition and transportation programs etc.

Fully subsidized programs constitute 30% of the Department’s offerings, slightly above the national average of 28%.

Somewhat Subsidized: Partially funded by public funds, these programs require participant fees that cover only part of the total cost, striking a balance between community and individual benefits. Examples include Youth and Adult programs and daily operations at The Wave Waterpark. These make up 17% of the Department’s programs, compared to a national average of 26%.

Self-Sufficient: These programs are designed to cover their operating costs through participant fees, with no profit or financial loss. Examples include Building rentals, Facility Rentals at The Wave Waterpark among others. Self-sufficient programs represent 13% of the Department’s offerings, lower than the national average of 21%.

Revenue Generating: These programs go beyond cost recovery, generating additional revenue that can support other programs. Examples include swim lessons at The Wave Waterpark Concerts and Theater Productions at Moonlight Amphitheater etc. Revenue-generating programs make up a significant 39% of the Department’s offerings, well above the national average of 25%, indicating a strong focus on financial sustainability.

These classifications guide the Department’s budgeting and pricing strategies, balancing accessibility with financial health to meet community needs effectively. The City of Vista’s program distribution reflects a notable emphasis on revenue-generating services, supporting broader fiscal sustainability goals.

Classification FULLY SUBSIDIZED SOMEWHAT SUBSIDIZED SELF-SUFFICIENT REVENUE GENERATING Definition
All program costs are covered by
external funds, typically from
organizing body's general budget or
grants. Participants do not bear any
direct cost. These are considered
vital for the community, ensuring
maximum accessibility and
participation.

While a portion of the program's
expenses are covered by external
funds or the organizing body's
general budget, participants are
required to pay a fee that covers a
portion of the cost to offer the
program. Such programs often
balance between community
benefits and individual benefits.

These programs are designed to
break even. The fees charged to
participants cover the entire cost of
offering the program, including
facilities, equipment, staff salaries,
and any other associated costs. No
profit is made, but there is no
financial loss either.

Programs that are not only self-
sufficient but also generate
additional revenue over and above
their operational costs. The surplus
can be reinvested into other
programs or areas of the organizing
body. These programs often cater to
niche markets or offer premium
services.

Examples
Free community swimming sessions,
public parks maintenance, basic
safety training sessions, and
complimentary community events.

Group swimming lessons at
community pools, art and music
workshops at community centers,
youth sports leagues, and
community gardening programs.

Specialized workshops (like
advanced photography),
memberships to specific fitness
classes, or recreational leagues with
higher operational costs.

Exclusive retreats, private swim
coaching, rental of premium
facilities for private events, or
specialized courses with expert
trainers.

PROGRAM DIRECTION

Analyzing program direction helps the Recreation Department align its offerings with community preferences and organizational resources. The programs are classified into four types:

Self-Directed: Programs (such as Concerts, Special Events, Rentals etc.) where participants engage independently, requiring only general supervision, make up 43% of the Department’s offerings, significantly above the national average of 22%. This indicates a strong focus on providing independent recreational opportunities.

Staff-Directed: Instructor-led activities, such as swim lessons at The Wave Waterpark, pre- school programs, camps etc.), account for 39% of the Department’s distribution, slightly below the national average of 49%. This suggests a balanced approach, with a slightly smaller emphasis on structured, leader-directed programs.

Contracted: Programs supported by external providers who deliver recreational services independently constitute 4% of the offerings, close to the national average of 7%. This reflects a limited but present use of contracted services.

Cooperative: Programs developed through partnerships with public, commercial, and nonprofit entities make up 13% of the distribution, lower than the national average of 21%, indicating fewer cooperative initiatives.

This distribution shows that the Department places a significant emphasis on self-directed opportunities, with a balanced approach to staff-directed programming, while cooperative and contracted programs are less prominent compared to national trends.

4.1.7 KEY FINDINGS
Community Profile: Vista’s population is growing, with a young median age and a diverse, primarily Hispanic/Latino community. Rising cost of living and limited park access (51% within a 10-minute walk) highlight the need for accessible, inclusive recreational programs. Improving park access and tree coverage, especially in diverse neighborhoods, is critical to meeting community needs.

Recreation and Leisure Trends: High participation likelihood in team sports (soccer, basketball) and group fitness (Zumba, Pilates) reveals strong community interest. Lower engagement in activities like golf, backpacking, and fishing suggests potential gaps. Opportunities exist to enhance offerings in team sports, fitness classes, and cultural programs, while expanding underrepresented outdoor activities.

Core Program Areas: Vista’s programs focus on inclusivity, with 45% serving “All Ages,” well above national averages. However, programming for specific age groups—preschool, elementary, teens, adults, and seniors—falls short of national trends, signaling a need to increase offerings for these groups.

Pricing Strategies: The Department uses varied pricing based on demographics and financial goals. Revenue-generating programs, such as facility rentals and special events, are emphasized, supporting fiscal sustainability. However, maintaining balance across cost-recovery strategies ensures accessibility for all income levels.

Program Services Classification: The Department’s programs are balanced across community, blended, and individual benefit categories, with a strong focus on community-inclusive services.

Compared to national averages, Vista places more emphasis on community-individual blend programs like sports leagues and workshops, aligning with its mission to serve broader community needs.

Cost Recovery: The Department has a robust approach to cost recovery, with a higher-than- average focus on revenue-generating programs (39%) compared to the national average (25%).

County or state averages are not available for the same. Fully subsidized and somewhat subsidized programs support accessibility, while revenue-generating options ensure financial health and resource reinvestment.

Program Lifecycle: Most programs are stable or maxed, focusing on established, well-attended activities. Fewer new and growing programs indicate a need to periodically refresh offerings to maintain community engagement and adapt to changing needs.

Program Direction: Emphasis is on self-directed (43%) and staff-directed (39%) programs, with less focus on contracted and cooperative options compared to national averages. The Department could explore more partnerships to diversify its offerings.

Program Proficiency: All programs are inclusive, catering to “All Abilities,” with no beginner, intermediate, or advanced-specific offerings. While this supports broad access, expanding proficiency-specific programs could better serve participants with varied skill levels.

Marketing and Communications: The Department uses diverse channels, including print/online guides, social media, and PSAs, but lacks presence on platforms like YouTube and podcasts.

Expanding into these areas could further enhance engagement. 12/09/2025

4.2 PARK AND FACILITY EVALUATIONS
The evaluation of park assets within the City of Vista is a cornerstone of our strategic planning and maintenance scheduling efforts. Each park and its amenities are carefully assessed through thorough field observations by our dedicated staff, resulting in a comprehensive grading based on current conditions. This systematic process ensures that we understand the performance of individual assets, rather than evaluating the park system as a whole.

Our evaluation process uses a qualitative grading scale, complemented by numerical scores, to reflect both the quantity and quality of recreational opportunities available. This approach facilitates transparent prioritization for repairs, upgrades, and future enhancements. Each park is rated consistently and comparatively against similar facilities across the system.

4.2.1 METHODOLOGY
As part of the City of Vista park system
assessment, each asset is evaluated using a
standardized grading system. These evaluations
are based on in-depth field observations
conducted by qualified staff, focusing on the
condition and functionality of individual amenities.

Rather than just assessing parks as a whole, each
amenity is reviewed on its own merits. When an
amenity or facility is found to be in noticeably
poorer condition compared to similar features in
other parks, it is clearly noted. Numerical scores are assigned to summarize both the quantity and overall quality of recreational opportunities available at each location.

THE FOLLOWING SCORING SYSTEM WAS USED
GREAT (Score: 4–5)
Site amenities are in excellent condition, displaying high levels of functionality and appearance with little to no visible maintenance concerns. These amenities are well-maintained, up to date, and fully operational. Users can expect a safe, clean, and enjoyable experience, and only routine preventative maintenance is required at this level.

GOOD (Score: 3)
Site amenities are in good condition and remain fully functional but may show signs of minor wear and tear. Maintenance issues, if present, are typically superficial and the result of normal aging or heavy usage. While amenities are still safe and attractive, some may benefit from minor repairs or cosmetic improvements to maintain long-term quality.

FAIR (Score: 2)
Site amenities are in fair condition, indicating ongoing maintenance issues and a noticeable decline in appearance or functionality. The wear and tear observed is often due to age and high usage, and while amenities remain usable, they may detract from the overall experience. More frequent maintenance and moderate repairs are needed to prevent further deterioration.

POOR (Score: 0–1)
Site amenities are in poor condition and clearly exhibit significant maintenance problems. These issues may compromise safety or usability, potentially requiring the closure of the amenity for repairs or replacement. Immediate action is needed to address structural concerns, functional deficiencies, or serious aesthetic deterioration. Amenities in this category are a priority for repair or replacement in future improvement plans.

As part of the comprehensive evaluation of the City of Vista park system, all parks were assessed using a standardized set of criteria to ensure consistent, objective, and meaningful evaluations. This assessment helps identify strengths, areas for improvement, and opportunities for future investments. Each park was reviewed based on its accessibility; physical condition, user safety, and 12/09/2025

ongoing maintenance needs to support the long-term success and enjoyment of Vista public spaces. Each category was given a numerical score between 0-5, with 5 being best.

Access and Connectivity
This category evaluates how easily and safely park users can reach and navigate through each park.

It considers the availability and condition of adjacent trails or trailheads, street crossings, sidewalks, and internal park pathways. Additionally, it assesses the effectiveness of wayfinding signage, connectivity to surrounding neighborhoods, and compliance with accessibility standards to ensure all visitors, including those with mobility challenges, can comfortably access and enjoy park amenities.

Condition and Functionality
This assessment focuses on the physical state and usability of individual park amenities, such as playground equipment, sports facilities, seating areas, and restrooms. It also evaluates the health and coverage of the tree canopy and other vegetation, the condition of paved surfaces like walkways and courts, and the quality of lighting and site furnishings. Parks that score well in this category have well-maintained, attractive, and fully functional amenities that meet community needs.

Safety and Comfort
This category addresses how safe and comfortable visitors feel while using the park. It considers factors such as visibility and clear sightlines, adequate lighting for evening use, and the presence of active park users that promote a welcoming environment. The evaluation also looks for signs of misuse or vandalism, ease of navigation within the park, proximity to busy roadways, potential physical hazards (e.g., damaged surfaces or unsafe structures), and the management of natural features like slopes and water bodies to minimize safety risks.

Maintenance
Maintenance evaluates the ongoing care required to keep the park attractive, functional, and safe.

This includes reviewing the presence of litter, graffiti, worn or damaged amenities, and landscaping issues such as overgrown vegetation or unhealthy trees. A strong maintenance program ensures that parks remain welcoming, enjoyable, and in good condition, supporting their continued use and long-term sustainability.

It is important to note that the consultant team conducted in-person site assessments of Vista parks in August of 2024. This assessment establishes a baseline understanding and a “snapshot” in time of the system’s existing conditions, facilities, and amenities. This assessment does not account for additions and improvements to the system that were not completed in the 2024 fiscal year or other improvements to the system that have occurred since the site assessments were conducted.

Each summary includes key information on existing amenities and features available at each site.

To visually support this information, an aerial site plan is included for each park, clearly identifying the location of all existing amenities. Additionally, all data has been compiled and stored in a comprehensive Geographic Information System (GIS) database, which has been provided to the City. This valuable resource supports ongoing planning, project management, and informed decision-making as the City continues to develop and enhance its parks and recreational facilities.

FINDINGS

4.2.2 GENERAL OBSERVATIONS
Access & Connectivity
Several parks are adjacent to a mix of land uses including schools, apartments, private residences, and busy streets, which shapes overall accessibility. In some locations, fencing separates the park from adjacent roadways, improving safety but reducing permeability. Access is sometimes compromised where parking must be shared with adjacent housing developments or facilities such as the Wave Water Park, and in other cases where the only pedestrian access point is through a locked gate.

Topography strongly affects connectivity at multiple sites. Some parks include ravines or slopes, with improvements clustered near parking lots and DG trails leading to benches or overlooks.

Others are tucked into hillsides, such as the park with the Thibodo House at the top and recreation amenities at the bottom. Several parks integrate with regional mobility features, including adjacent trailheads that connect to the Rancho Guajome Adobe County Park.

Transit access varies: some parks have adjacent bus stops, while others are bordered by train tracks or busy streets, making them less inviting for pedestrians. Parking availability is also inconsistent ranging from angled street parking to small onsite lots with accessible stalls. Overall circulation is mixed, with some parks providing good-loop concrete walks and others relying heavily on turf or slopes down to sidewalks, resulting in limited edge permeability.

Condition & Functionality Evaluation
Park conditions vary widely across the system. Several playgrounds are new or in good condition, with intact rubber surfacing, though occasional repairs are noted (e.g., a climber taped off). Other playgrounds are smaller and targeted to specific age groups. Some parks provide unique thematic elements, such as musical play components or distinctive sculptures.

Recreational offerings are diverse: parks include soccer fields, baseball facilities, basketball courts, picnic areas, playgrounds, and in some cases duck ponds, trail networks, or linear walking paths. Site configurations range from compact, well-organized multi-use parks to those that are predominantly open turf or serve as urban respite spaces.

Several parks provide community-serving features, including concession stands, restrooms, rentable buildings, and commemorative elements such as the Veterans Wall with sculptural seating. Some sites lack seating, requiring visitors to use staircases as informal sitting areas.

A few parks have notable constraints: some tables and benches are chipped, cracked, or missing components, while certain athletic facilities are privately owned, restricting general public access.

Safety & Comfort
Safety conditions vary significantly. Some parks share facilities with schools, influencing access and supervision. Others contain secluded areas that show evidence of illicit or unauthorized activity, particularly where topography or vegetation creates hidden spaces.

Environmental hazards include rattlesnake and poison oak warning signs, especially in ravine areas. Along major roadways, parks often rely on trees, plantings, or chain link fencing to create separation from traffic.

Positive safety features include stop signs and crosswalks at street intersections and the spatial separation created when parking lots sit at higher elevations than park amenities.

Lighting is a recurring challenge: at least one park is noted to have no lighting, reducing evening comfort and usability. Some sites show evidence of homeless encampments using walls or sculptures for shelter.

Maintenance
Maintenance quality ranges from well-managed to minimal. Some parks show active improvements, such as newly planted trees near trailheads and well-maintained synthetic turf fields. Trash management varies, with a mix of portable plastic cans and durable concrete receptacles in good condition.

Signs of deterioration include vandalized light bollards, mature trees in need of thinning, and infrastructure that is aging or in disrepair, such as cracked or chipped concrete benches and tables. In some locations, the landscape is nearly all hardscape, offering little vegetation and requiring minimal but consistent upkeep.

Overall, maintenance needs tend to align with park age, use patterns, and environmental exposure.

4.3 INVENTORY, ASSESSMENT, AND LEVEL OF

SERVICE ANALYSIS
Level of Service (LOS) Standards provide a framework for assessing the availability, distribution, and accessibility of parks, facilities, and amenities throughout the City. By comparing this inventory against the City’s current population, the analysis helps determine how effectively the community’s recreational needs are being met today and where opportunities exist to enhance future access and equity.

These standards guide decision-making around park development, facility improvements, and service delivery. They are informed by multiple sources, including National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) guidelines, 2024 national participation trends from the Sports and Fitness Industry Association (SFIA), feedback from community members and stakeholders, findings from the statistically valid survey, and input from City staff.

The Level of Service analysis also accounts for the role of other providers within and around Vista to create a comprehensive view of available resources. While LOS standards are not universal benchmarks, they serve as valuable tools for identifying system strengths, gaps, and opportunities helping shape future investments that align with Vista’s growth, demographics, and evolving recreational priorities.

These recommended standards are then used to develop the equity mapping that showcases the gaps and overlaps in offerings across the system.

4.4 EQUITY MAPPING
Equity Mapping and Service Area Analysis provide a clear picture of how parks, facilities, and recreation amenities are distributed throughout the City and how well they align with population density, neighborhood characteristics, and community needs. Using recommended service levels for each park and amenity type, these maps help identify areas that may be underserved or overserved.

By comparing geographic access with population-based standards, the City can identify service gaps and prioritize investments that improve equity across the park system. This approach ensures that future capital improvements not only address system-wide needs but also enhance fair and inclusive access to recreation opportunities for all Vista residents. The various service area rings also illustrate the reach of both City and non-City providers, reflecting the broader network of recreation resources available to the community.

The maps are developed for the following amenities:
 Community Parks
 Mini Parks
 Neighborhood Parks
 Regional Parks
 Ball Fields (Diamond)
 Basketball Courts
 Dog Parks
 Indoor Fitness / Recreation Space
 Multipurpose Fields
 Outdoor Pools
 Pickleball Courts

4.5 FUNDING & REVENUE STRATEGIES
A sustainable and diversified funding strategy is essential to maintaining and enhancing Vista’s parks, recreation facilities, and community programs. The City of Vista currently utilizes a mix of public, private, and grant-based resources to fund operations, maintenance, and capital improvements. These resources reflect both the City’s strong history of collaboration and its commitment to exploring creative, equitable, and financially responsible approaches to future investment.

The following section summarizes Vista’s existing and potential funding strategies by category, highlighting implementation feasibility, risk level, and current examples of use.

4.5.1 EXTERNAL FUNDING
Vista has effectively leveraged external partnerships and sponsorships to support community programming and special events. Corporate sponsorships and private donations are used extensively for signature events such as the Independence Day Celebration, Easter Egg Hunt, and Moonlight Amphitheatre performances. The City also maintains strong collaborative partnerships with the Vista Unified School District, Chamber of Commerce, and County of San Diego through joint-use agreements and cooperative initiatives.

The Moonlight Cultural Foundation and Friends of the Rancho Buena Vista Adobe serve as key nonprofit partners, generating financial support and community engagement for cultural and historical programming. In addition, the City benefits from a strong volunteer base across programs and facilities, including the Adobe and Vista Historical Society, which provides indirect financial savings and fosters community ownership.

Emerging opportunities such as crowdfunding, foundation endowments, and planned giving programs could provide new ways to fund specific projects, particularly those with visible community benefits or donor appeal.

Examples of Current Use
 Moonlight Cultural Foundation fundraising and sponsorships  Friends of the Adobe nonprofit group
 Volunteer engagement at historic and cultural facilities  Corporate sponsorships for events and celebrations

4.5.2 CAPITAL FUNDING
Capital-specific funding mechanisms are a cornerstone of Vista’s long-term financial strategy.

The City collects Park Development Impact Fees (PDIFs) to ensure that new residential and commercial growth contributes to the development and enhancement of parkland and facilities.

Dedication and development fees also support neighborhood and regional park expansion, while redevelopment funds contribute to reinvestment in existing infrastructure.

Although not currently in place, capital improvement fees tied to enterprise facilities (e.g., aquatic or recreation centers) could provide a future funding mechanism for major reinvestments.

12/09/2025

158
Examples of Current Use
 Park Development Impact Fees (PDIFs)
 Dedication/Development and Redevelopment Fees

4.5.3 USER FEES
User fees represent a significant and reliable revenue stream for the Recreation and Community Services Department. These include program registrations, facility rentals, equipment rentals, ticketed events, and special use permits. Fees are structured to balance affordability and access with cost-recovery goals and are benchmarked against regional market rates to ensure competitiveness.

Future opportunities include the refinement of pricing models to better align with equity and cost-recovery principles, as well as potential dynamic or tiered pricing for high-demand amenities and programs.

Examples of Current Use
 Recreation class and league fees
 Facility and field rental fees
 Event ticket sales and special use permits
 Equipment rentals

4.5.4 GRANTS
Grant funding continues to play an important role in supporting both capital projects and community programs. The City has successfully obtained grants through the USDA Urban and Community Forestry Program for tree planting and irrigation improvements along the North Santa Fe Corridor. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) allocations have also funded both capital improvements—such as upgrades at the Gloria McClellan Senior Center—and social service programs benefiting Vista residents, including Meals on Wheels, Palomar Family Counseling, and Boys & Girls Club programming.

Vista also actively pursues State and federal grants such as Proposition 68 Per Capita, Land and Water Conservation Fund, Recreational Trails Program, and Park and Recreational Facilities Construction Program (PARC) to advance systemwide goals related to equity, sustainability, and access.

Examples of Current or Past Use
 CDBG annual allocations for capital and human services  USDA Urban and Community Forestry Program grant
 Proposition 68 and other State/County grants

4.5.5 TAX SUPPORT
Vista’s General Fund remains the foundation for funding operations not covered by other sources. Revenues from property tax, sales tax, transient occupancy tax (TOT), and real property conveyance tax provide ongoing support for maintenance, staffing, and recreation programs.

While no special improvement districts currently exist, establishing these in the future could help fund localized park and streetscape enhancements in high-benefit areas or commercial corridors.

Examples of Current Use
 General Fund allocations supported by property, sales, and TOT revenues  Conveyance tax revenues supporting community improvements Franchises and Licenses
Public-private partnerships and vendor agreements supplement City revenues and enhance service offerings. Concession management contracts, private concessionaire agreements, and advertising sales (e.g., on scoreboards, event signage, or within program guides) generate operational income.

Looking ahead, additional opportunities such as naming rights, leasebacks, or greenway utility easements may provide new funding tools for capital development, particularly for high-visibility projects or trail corridors.

Examples of Current or Potential Use
 Concession and vendor contracts
 Advertising sales in publications and facilities
 Potential naming rights for major facilities or park amenities

4.5.6 SUMMARY
Vista’s success in leveraging diverse funding sources — from CDBG and Proposition 68 grants to impact fees, sponsorships, and partnerships — demonstrates a strong foundation for continued financial sustainability. Moving forward, the City can strengthen its funding capacity by:
 Expanding partnerships and sponsorship programs beyond events to include facility naming opportunities and capital projects.
 Aligning user fees with cost-recovery goals and community equity principles.  Maximizing grant competitiveness through dedicated grant coordination and alignment with State and federal funding priorities.
 Exploring new tools, such as special assessment districts, leasebacks, or crowdfunding, for large-scale or community-driven projects.

Together, these strategies will help Vista continue to enhance the quality, accessibility, and resilience of its parks and recreation system.

4.6 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PLAN
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for Vista serves as a strategic framework for prioritizing, funding, and delivering critical infrastructure and facility projects that enhance the city’s livability, sustainability, and long-term growth. This plan focuses on targeted investments in parks, recreational amenities, community centers, and public spaces to meet the evolving needs of Vista diverse and growing population.

A key component of the RPIP is the alignment of available financial resources to support these improvement projects. Vista utilizes a variety of existing funding sources to make these initiatives possible, including:

General Fund, DIF, CDBG and various potential grant opportunities.

Through the strategic use of these resources, the City ensures responsible fiscal management while advancing projects that promote environmental stewardship, community wellness, and economic vitality. As Vista continues to thrive, this Recommended Improvements Plan provides a clear and actionable roadmap for creating vibrant public spaces and strengthening community infrastructure—today and for future generations.

To provide greater clarity and transparency, the PRIP is organized into three distinct categories:

4. Projects that are planned and have secured funding

5. Projects that are planned but not yet funded

6. Projects that have been completed in the last several years This structure allows stakeholders to easily understand the current status of each initiative, track progress over time, and anticipate future development efforts as the plan evolves.

As outlined in the
table below, the
City has several
planned projects
underway,
reflecting its
continued
investment in
quality of life.

These include new
park sites
Matagual Park,
Breeze Hill Park,
and Paseo Buena
Vista Park and
improvements to
Brengle Terrace
Park.

4.7 SITE SPECIFIC PLANS
As part of the Master Plan, the project team developed site-specific concept plans for four important locations: Breeze Hill Park, Brengle Terrace Park, Matagual Park site, and Paseo Buena Vista. These concept plans provide a forward-looking vision for how each site can improve, evolve, and better serve Vista’s diverse community in the years ahead.

Grounded in community input, staff and consultant expertise, community needs and trends, each concept plan is customized to the identity, opportunities, and constraints of its specific location.

These plans were developed with extensive community input through initial public meetings, draft concepts shared in meetings and on the website (www.planvistaparks.com) and with city staff to get feedback and update these conceptual plans.

Together, they offer Vista a practical and inspiring roadmap for future capital investments, phased improvements, and potential partnerships.

You don't often get email from [email protected]. Learn why this is important I support the changes to Brengle Terrace Park. I have lived in Vista for years and this park could really use an update especially for kids. The new playground is great, and the splash pad is amazing!! Vista has been needing a free community splash pad. New bathrooms are also way overdue, can we make them stroller friendly with an ADA accessible door? And excited about the walking paths I get tired of the one path.

Thank you for what you do! These are awesome changes!

Hello,
I live on Vale View a few houses up from the proposed park plans. I am excited for the park to be developed and look forward to an increased sense of community in this area.

My concern is with the amount of homeless individuals in the area. How will I be able to feel safe at this park with my 2 year old? Will anything be put in place to mitigate homeless activity in the park especially after hours? It seems restrooms bring an increase in homeless and unwanted activity and I see there are restrooms in the plan.

Many nearby parks have people who live out of their car parked there during the day.

I am hoping to get some insight into what has been thought of regarding the safety and homeless situation at this park.

Thank you,
Baylee

I have lived in Vista since 1951. I retired as a VUSD school principal. This city is important to me.

Physical fitness is important to most. Vista is the ONLY city in north county that doesn’t have a swimming pool open to their citizens for year round exercise.

I drive to Oceanside 2-3 mornings to engage in AM lap swimming and water aerobics. I am happy to pay ( as a non Oceanside resident) $8.00 for each visit.

I am hopeful that you and your city team can open up the pool for year round AM swimming.

be the most affected. It seems only fair
that their quality of life be considered
when determining which park features are
implemented. We stand by our original
concerns for the development of this
property, which include increased noise,
traﬃc, congestion, decline in property
value, and the park becoming a gathering
place for the homeless. Below is a list of
issues and concerns: • The large number
of features proposed in both options,
especially considering the limited size of
the property, raises concerns. Each
individual feature adds to congestion and
noise. However, when combined such as a
pickleball court, dog park, playground,
splash pad, work out stations, and others
the cumulative impact becomes a much
greater disruption for the local community.

It's important to note that a significant
portion of Charlemont and Avalon is less
than 50 yards from the property. •
Pickleball courts are very popular and
typically remain busy throughout the day,
generating continuous noise. Even if the
courts were placed as shown on either of
the concept maps below, the elevated
location on a hill would allow the sound to
carry easily to the Charlemont community.

Thibodo Park in Vista has experienced
numerous resident complaints related to
pickleball court noise, and similar issues
have occurred in Encinitas and other parks
where courts were installed too close to
prior established residential homes. • A
park of this magnitude requires defined
hours of operation and should not remain
open into the evening, when most
residents are returning home from work.

If a parking lot is included, it’s essential
that it be gated and locked during non-
operational hours to prevent overnight
parking, late-night gatherings,
unauthorized use, and issues related to
homelessness. • Dog parks present
persistent noise from barking dogs and
require consistent maintenance, especially
to ensure dog waste is promptly removed.

Even if placed at the farthest point from
Charlemont and Avalon homes, the noise
would still travel and be a constant
disturbance to residents. Therefore, the
area next to Avalon and along Breeze Hill
Road, opposite Charlemont, should be
preserved as open space with only grass
areas and walking paths. • We are
strongly opposed to the splash pad as
12/09/2025
D1

Comments
these facilities create excessive noise,
raise serious sanitation concerns, and
Vista is in a drought-intolerant region and
has very limited water resources. This is
why the City of San Diego has instituted
year round mandatory water restrictions
for all water customers, aiming to promote
water conservation during the recurring
drought cycles. • During our visits to
several parks within Vista’s city limits,
we've observed that public restrooms are
poorly maintained, unsanitary, and in
many cases unusable. Restrooms may
seem like a great feature in the planning
process; however, when given to the
public, the facilities are always unkept,
misused, and vandalized. The evidence of
this can be observed by visiting any public
park restroom and witnessing the
conditions firsthand. • Some parks allow
people to get permits for large parties that
include loud music lasting for hours, which
will result in extended disturbances for
nearby residents. This should not be
allowed. • The park's proximity to the
Vista Detention Center where individuals
are released daily, often without a place to
go is concerning. In the past, we've had to
contact local police regarding incidents of
loitering, vandalism, and disturbances
involving individuals on Charlemont
property. The new park could provide
another location for this behavior to occur.

In summary, we believe the following
points are essential: The final proposal
should be scaled down significantly.

Including so many features on such a
small parcel of land right next to
residential homes feels excessive and
unnecessary. The current plans include six
to seven diﬀerent elements, which, given
the limited space, create a cumulative
impact that significantly increases
disruption to the surrounding community.

Ideally, a grass park with walking paths,
workout stations, and picnic benches
would be more than suﬃcient and require
much less limited resources to implement
and maintain. Keeping the development
modest would be both beneficial and
respectful to local residents. A park of this
scale should be reserved for a location
that is large enough to accommodate the
features without undue burden to the local
neighborhood. We understand that we are
just one voice among many in shaping the
direction of this park project. However,
12/09/2025
D1
251 of 561
many of the opinions influencing this
decision will come from individuals who
don’t live in our neighborhood people who
will enjoy the benefits of the park without
facing the day to day challenges it will
bring to those of us living right next to it.

We are requesting the city to conduct a
sound demonstration test so that
residents can experience a real-time
simulation of the park’s noise levels.

Previously, a representative from the Vista
Planning Committee attended one of our
Charlemont board meetings to gather
input from residents on potential park
designs. We believe it is essential for the
city to revisit Charlemont and Avalon prior
to the final decision, as these communities
will face the greatest impact from the
park. As you make your final decision,
PLEASE consider how you would feel if a
project of this scale were planned directly
next to YOUR home.

on the table prior to the investors prompting the annexation process. In my opinion.

This is my example. Thinking bigger picture. Contiguous assets like riparian wetlands. Future annexation mapping in coordination with County (Bonsall), and other Cities like Oceanside and Carlsbad which all meet at this particular point of intersection.

This overview of planning in general is why it was wasteful to spend millions in money and years of time building the "Destination section" of Santa Fe going by Frosty Freeze. Now, we are designing a way to allow for parking and one way streets through Main Street, while also raising the Train system 50 feet over 2 miles of infrastructure that was partially just replaced, but not adequate to support the freight train columns.

A Master Plan for Parks is part of a General Plan for the city, and is a component as important as the Climate Plan which has lagged in detail and strategies as well. While the survey of Public Opinion is of great value, it is likely similar to one that has been taken previously? A couple years ago, we did surveys and reviews to spend 2 million on shifting a few parking spaces on the park at Main Street. Now we appear to be adding a dozen trees and it will budget around 10 million in stead?

I hope this commentary is added to the comments section of the current Parks Plan out for public review today. November 25, 2025

I reviewed the plans and here are my thoughts.
1) way too much area is devoted to dog areas on all the plans 2) fencing around the parks needs to be at least 6 feet high with a lockable gate after hours or else they will be homeless encampments
3) rest rooms need to be locked after hours to prevent homeless takeovers 4) Only the plan with the splash pad should be considered for Breeze Hill Park 5) night lighting is required to reduce crime, ilegal camping, etc.

Subject: Parks Master Plan
Date: Monday, December 1, 2025 12:43:39 AM
Greetings Imelda,
I have had issues with the Parks Master Plan since the very first Public Gathering, I would not call it a Workshop, it seems almost two years ago. There was a very good public attendance. I thought the consultant presenter was very arrogant. I may be the only person to feel this way.

Throughout the entire process the Dir of Parks and Community Services at the time gave excuses or said, "Let's wait and see what the recommendations are and the plan has been
adopted ". During that first presentation, the public was asked to go to one of two card tables, each with a giant map of Brengle Terrace Park draped
over the card tables. There were little
pieces of non-stick paper, different shapes and colors, and a dozen pens for some 50 people per table. People stood around for a long time talking about ideas for Brengle Terrace Park
while they waited for their turn to lay a little piece of paper on the map with a suggestion. The Morris Vance room was totally
empty except for the presenter when I left . What I observed was the presenter wiping all the multi-colored pieces of paper off the map with what appeared to be utter disregard for the public's time and input. The presenter then rolled up the maps in preparation to leave.

I had been told repeatedly by the previous Parks and Community Services Director that issues with and about the Gloria McClellan Senior Center (facility and programs) would be part of the Parks Master Plan (on which to base future budgeting) since the facility sits in Brengle Terrace. Therefore, I asked the Presenter and Parks Director at the time, during that first public meeting if the Senior Center would also be included in discussions and surveys. I felt the answers by both parties were a brush off and extremely vague. So it went from the very start to the now, final draft. It is as though that little corner piece of property on which the Senior Center sits does not exist in respect to Brengle Park, along with the Jim Porter Recreation Building and the Moonlight Theater.

Is the difference that The Wave Water Park and the Linda Roades Center are designated as "parks" unto themselves even though they appear to have facilities as well, while the Senior Center, Moonlight Theater, and the Jim Porter Recreation building are facilities that just happen to sit within
a park defined as Brengle Terrace Park. Are the latter three entities not considered as part of the Parks Master Plan because they are under a city "Facilities" list somewhere for budgeting? What will happen to the proposed Luz Duran Center, will it be a park or facility?
The second public meeting with the Consultant was no better in respect to Brengle Terrace Park, and declined to talk about the Senior Center or the Jim Porter Recreation building nor did he accommodate public
opinion on his final proposal for Brengle Terrace Park. The previous Parks and Community Service Director was no better.

When reading through the Parks Master plan, there were many opportunities to "Learn more
here", except clicking on "here
" produced no response. I may have missed some
important information due to this problem. I especially wanted to read more about Core Programs on page 9.

I am disappointed in the Parks Master Plan, especially in respect to Brengle Terrace park.

With that said, here is my review:

BRENGLE TERRACE PARK

1. Although the Moonlight Theater was identified some 8 times in the Master Plan and suggesting that it needs $7,252,273 for improvements, and also suggesting a Recreation Center (I presume the Jim Porter building) requires $84,425 for improvements. There is only one mention of the Gloria McClellan Senior Center by name for possible programing considerations. There is no other mention of the senior center in the 236 Parks Master Plan document. It is almost as
if the Consultant was deliberately steered away from the Senior Center. Therefore the City has not received and will not receive any recommendations regarding improvements needed to the facility or grounds nor a funding "improvement " recommendation. This is a gross oversight and suggests absolute neglect and disregard for a
very important facility which also sits within the boundaries of the park when the other two amenities (facilities) are identified and addressed. I
It is an insult that the consultant saw no need to make any mention of the Senior center upon which the city can identify budgetary needs.

2. At the second public workshop, it was clear the consultant had more interest and fun designing the three new parks because when he talked about Brengle Terrace Park last, he said there was not much he could do or change with an old, well used, existing park".

3. The Brengle Terrace Concept map is small, faded, has poor graphics, and is difficult to decipher, appearing as though the consultant has less regard for Brengle Terrace than any other of the City parks. His slide presentation was better. The appendix shows better maps of
Brengle Terrace's existing "amenities".

4. Because the "Concept Plan for Brengle Terrace is so small, it is difficult to know the specifics of the consultant's
recommendations. I believe he has still included a "splash pad" recommendation when the public expressed that there did not appear to be a need for an expensive feature to install
and maintain such as a "Splash Pad" in Brengle Terrace when a splash pad is part of the design for other new parks.

5. The consultant was encouraged to make the main entrance into the park by the new bathroom structure rather than by the leash free dog parks. It is not clear where the leash free dog parks (large dog/small dog) are located.

6. If the Concept Plan does eliminate the small parking area and bathrooms in the park close to the Senior Center, might this close off walking access directly from the Senior Center into the park and on to the connection to the Wiivey
Trail?

7. I am unable to tell on the Concept Plan where the new paths go through the park. I think they would have to go around the
Alta Vista Garden boundaries. I am not sure the young
mothers with strollers will use the trails through the park, but will continue to walk the park circumference
on the park roadway. Perhaps a true sidewalk around the circumference of the park is a better option.

8. Paved
parking for the Moonlight Theater does not go along with the city's environmental agenda and priorities. Pavement is heat producing, does not create a park like environment and will probably require some earth moving destroying some of the park character. I believe there are other materials to be found to cover a parking area. The 12/09/2025
D1
267 of 561
increase in an identifiable parking area will help the Moonlight Theater and provide for increasing daytime use.

9. Although by law the city is not required to construct ADA sidewalk ramps for trails, I strongly recommend that sidewalk ramps be made at the Wiivey Trail that goes through a portion of Brengle Terrace opposite the Jim Porter building. This allows "Accessibility" for manual
and power wheelchairs and strollers on one of the few level, hard-packed nature trails in central Vista.

I apologize, I pressed ctrl and my computer decided to send my not yet completed, too lengthy reply at:

GENERAL

1. The Parks Master Plan shows comparison numbers and percentages for the city parks' usage, direction and programs in the norm for the most part. It also shows that Vista can expect an increase
in the senior population, while the youth and young adult population will decrease by 2040, just 15 years away. I am just disappointed not more was written about the senior population and accessibility. I think the master plan is biased toward the younger ages ,
in spite of the graphs and pies pointing out other statistical dynamics.

2. I would still like to see a community garden.

3. More attention and funding needs to go to the Rancho Buena Vista Adobe which was obliquely mentioned once in the Parks Master Plan. It is costly to maintain adobe correctly and one does not want it to get in too much disrepair or the city. will lose a significant historical structure. It could be making more money for the city if it was open on a regular basis.

3. I do agree with everything written in the Parks Master Plan about improved marketing , as well as improved independent use of social media to publicize programs be it about youth or seniors, see pages 117, 119 and 122. I have been saying this for several years, improved and consistent publicity could increase fee based programs and recruit the city's "younger" seniors. to the center with programs of more interest and more flexible hours.

I digress.

Thank you for your time to read to the end of my lengthy email.

Putting a part by the courthouse is a horrible idea.

We live by the courthouse having all those released homeless transient detain arrested overnight just hang out in our neighborhood. Do you think that they’re not gonna go to the park?
You’re gonna make daytime parking for the apartments.

The city allowed all the apartments to go with. No parking parking is a nightmare in this area!!!

On June 23, 2025, the Parks & Recreation Commission will also receive an update on the Parks & Recreation Master Plan from Next Practice Partners and recommend the conceptual designs for City Council approval.

Survey Findings
Next Practice Partners retained ETC Institute (ETC) to develop and administer a statistically valid survey for the City of Vista during the winter of Fiscal Year 2024/25 that is included in Exhibit 1. The purpose of the survey was to receive input on a new Parks and Recreation Master Plan and guide decisions about the three new parks and improvements to Brengle Terrace Park.

Methodology
ETC mailed a survey packet to a random sample of households throughout the City of Vista. Each survey packet contained a cover letter, a copy of the survey, and a postage paid return envelope. Residents who received the survey were given the option of returning the survey by mail or completing it online.

After the surveys were mailed, ETC followed up with residents to encourage participation. To prevent people who were not residents of Vista from participating, everyone who completed the survey online was required to enter their home address prior to submitting their survey. ETC then matched the addresses entered online with the addresses originally selected for the random sample. If the address from a survey completed online did not match one of the addresses selected for the sample, the online survey was not included in the final database for this report.

Makeup of Survey Respondents
The vast majority (87%) of survey respondents have visited City of Vista parks and/or recreation facilities in the past year (81% is the national average).

The ages of people in household represented by survey respondents were:

Under 25 (33%)
25-34 (13%)
35-44 (17%)
45-54 (11%)
55-64 (11%)
Over 65 (15%)
The gender of the survey respondents were 50% female and 49% male (excludes if they preferred not to disclose).

There was a mix of long-term residents and relatively recent arrivals:
21% have lived in Vista 0-5 years.
19% have lived in Vista for 6-10 years.
7% have lived in Vista for 11-15 years.
7% have lived in Vista for 16-20 years.

20% have lived in Vista for 21-30 years.
26% have lived in Vista over 31 years.

Racial/ethnic makeup of survey respondents (multiple selections could be made):
50% – White/Caucasian
50% – Hispanic/Latino
5% – Asian or Asian Indian
2% – Black or African American
1% – American Indian or Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander 2% – Other
Prioritization for Park Site Construction
When respondents were asked in the survey how they would allocate $100 among different parks and recreation categories, there was a strong preference for investing in existing facilities and expanding park land, followed by program enhancements and improvements to indoor and outdoor recreational spaces.

36.76 – improve and maintain existing parks, pools, and recreation facilities.

25.54 – acquire new park land and open space.

11.94 – expand program offerings.

10.17 – improve existing indoor recreation facilities.

9.97 – construct new sports fields.

5.62 – other.

Priorities for Facility/Amenities Investments
The Priority Investment Rating (PIR) was developed by ETC to provide organizations with an objective tool for evaluating the priority that should be placed on recreation and parks investments. The PIR equally weighs (1) the importance that residents place on facilities and (2) how many residents have unmet needs for the facilities.

The PIR reflects the importance residents place on items (sum of top 4 choices) and the unmet needs needs that are only being met 50% or less) for each facility/program relative to the facility/program that rated the highest overall. Since decisions related to future investments should consider both the level of unmet need and the importance of facilities/programs, the PIR weights each of these components equally.

Based on the PIR chart for the top priorities for investment for facilities and amenities the following are considered the highest priorities for investment:

Multi-use hiking, biking, walking trails (200)
Walking paths in parks (148)
Large community parks (142)
Swimming pools (130)
Small neighborhood parks (126)
Open space conservation areas (119)
Off-leash dog park (119)
Environmental/nature education center (111)
Outdoor tennis courts (41)

Park Project Prioritization
Staff recommends the following prioritization for the park projects:

1. New Pickleball Courts at Breeze Hill Park Site
Staff recommend prioritizing the construction of new pickleball courts at the Breeze Hill Park site.

This aligns with the City's existing commitment to relocate the pickleball courts from Thibodo Park.

2. Brengle Terrace Park Improvements
Staff recommend making improvements to Brengle Terrace Park a second priority. This recommendation is based on survey results where investing in existing facilities to improve and maintain existing parks was ranked higher than expanding park land and acquiring new park land and open space. The City has already invested in acquiring new park land, making improvements to existing facilities a logical step.

3. Park Site on Matagual Drive
Staff recommends prioritizing the Matagual Drive park site as the first new park. It is the strongest contender among the new parks for the current Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership (ORLP) Round 8 grant.

4. Future Parks
Staff recommend revisiting the prioritization of the other future park projects as new grant opportunities become available. The competitiveness of these projects will depend on the specific criteria of each grant program.

FISCAL IMPACT: There is no direct fiscal impact with the staff recommendation. Direction received from the City Council relative to new park development will be brought back for fiscal impact discussion as part of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget or as part of an individual CIP project, unless directed otherwise.

The City currently has approximately $10.2 million in park development funds. This funding can only be used for new park improvements and requires City Council approval for any allocations.

Overview
ThePriorityInvestmentRating (PIR) wasdevelopedby ETCInstitute to providegovernmentswith an objective tool for evaluatingthe priority that should be placed on parks and recreation investments. The Priority Investment Rating was developedby ETCInstitute to identify the facilities/programsresidentsthink shouldreceivethe highestpriority for investment. ThePriority InvestmentRatingreflectsthe importanceresidentsplaceon items (sumof top 4 choices) andthe unmet needs (needsthat areonly beingmet 50% or less) for eachfacility/programrelativeto the facility/programthat ratedthe highestoverall. Sincedecisionsrelatedto futureinvestmentsshould considerboth the levelof unmet needandthe importanceof facilities/programs, the PIRweights eachof thesecomponentsequally.

ThePIRreflectsthe sumof the UnmetNeedsRatingand the ImportanceRatingasshownin the equationbelow:

PIR = UNR + IR
For example, supposethe Unmet NeedsRatingfor playgroundsis 26.5 (out of 100) and the Importance Rating for playgroundsis 52 ( out of 100), the Priority Investment Rating for playgroundswould be78.5 (out of 200).

Howto Analyzethe Charts:

HighPriorityAreasarethosewith aPIRof at least110. Aratingof 110or abovegenerally indicatesthere isa relativelyhighlevelof unmet needandresidentsgenerallythink it is important to fund improvementsin theseareas. Improvementsin this areaarelikelyto havea positiveimpacton the greatestnumberof households.

Medium Priority Areasare thosewith a PIRof 70-109. A rating in this rangegenerally indicatesthere is a mediumto highlevelof unmet needor a significantpercentageof residentsgenerallythink it isimportant to fund improvementsin theseareas.

Lower Priority Areasare those with a PIRbelow 69. A rating in this range generallyindicatesthere is a relativelylow level of unmet needand residentsdo not think it isimportantto fundimprovementsin theseareas. Improvementsmaybe warrantedif the needsof veryspecializedpopulationsarebeingtargeted.

Dear Vista Resident:

We' re reaching out to invite you to participate in shaping the future of Vista' s parks and recreation! Your feedback is crucial as we embark on several exciting projects and plan for the future of our community spaces.

We've created a short survey to gather your input on:

A new Parks and Recreation Master Plan: This comprehensive plan will guide the future of our parks, recreational programming, and park development for years to come.

Three new parks:
o Breeze Hill Road Park: Locatednearthe courthouse.
o Matagual Drive Park: Situated at the corner of Matagual and Hacienda drives. o Paseo Buena Vista Park: Located near Townsite Drive and E. VistaWay.

Improvements to Brengle Terrace Park: We want to hear your ideas for enhancing this popular park.

The future of the Wave Waterpark: As the waterpark approaches 30years of age, we need your input on how to best ensure its continued enjoyment for future generations.

Please complete and return your survey within the next two weeks.

The survey will take 10-15 minutes to complete, and responses will remain confidential. We have selected ETC Institute, an independent consulting company, as our partner to administer this survey. They will compile the data and present the results to the city, which in turn will be shared with the community.

Dear Mike, hope you are well and have had a good week!
I am writing again regarding the proposedpark on Breeze Hill. I'm a homeowner in Charlemont on Breeze Hill and can't emphasizeenough how fast paced and heavy the traffic already is on our little street, with little or no parking. When you are able to park on the street the risk of entering/exiting your vehicle is very high for one healthy adult. Imagine the dangerwith vehicles full of families with children trying to park or dropping children off then looking for parking. There is simply no room.

I'd like to encourage city staffers to come to Breeze Hill Road on a Saturday or Sunday and see for themselves. The only time there is ample parking is on Fridays when the street sweeper is here.

Myself and other concemed neighbors have been canvassingthe community and providing information on how to attend the upcoming Planning Board Meeting and how to submit public comments as well.

Besides traffic and parking my main concerns are noise and increase in petty crime.

Charlemont is not a gated community. We are a modest, diverse community with young families and senior citizens that intend to age in place here. The number of houseless people has increased dramatically in the past few years in this immediate vicinity. The pickle ball court idea is a hard pass and a no go. Just look at what the City of Encinitas is going through.

They are terribly noisy. Vista already has a water park, there is no need for a splash pad that will be costly to maintain relating to sanitation. Pet waste is a known health hazard. Imagine the flies and the odors. Would you want that right outside your windows? A grass park with benches and modest paths for walking would be beautiful, and easy to maintain. We can't be sure of funding for perpetual maintenance so why would the city risk such an unnecessary project?
Thank you in advance for hearing us in this important matter and thank you for everything you are trying to do to keep Vista a comfortable and quiet place to live.

Sincerely,
Katie White

Subject: Possiblebuild of BreezeHill park
Hi,
Myname is LisaLizarraga. I am a resident and owner at the Charlemont Condominiums. I'm writing this because it has come to my attention what the proposal for the possible building of the BreezeHill park would include.

WhenI was initially made awareof the possibility of a park here on BreezeHill, I thought it would be just that, a neighborhoodpark with grass, trees, walkingpaths, benches to sit, picnic benches to enjoy. What is beingproposed is a largescale entertainment park 50 yardsawayfrom Charlemont and Avalon. Thistype of park should be reservedfor an area that would be able to accommodate what is beingproposed.

Parkingis alreadyan issue
Pickleball courts, which arebeingremovedfromThibido park due to noise.

Splashpads and public bathrooms which will most definitely attract the homeless, in an adverseway. Not to mention, what happenedto water conservation efforts? Permits for largeparties and music. Thenoise! Andwithout restricted hours of operation, noise levels will continue on into the night. Don't we havea right to live in a peaceful community?
Aplayground. Contributes to noise level
Twodesignateddogparks, a playgroundwith children in a limited amount of space is an invitation for dangerousinteraction.

What is beingproposed will not only adverselyaffect BreezeHill residents, it will adverselyaffect all of the surrounding neighborhoods. Thecurrent proposal must be amended to fit the community that it serves. Justone last thing. I assume our taxesare payingfor
this as well as it's upkeep. Our concerns needto be heard and addressed. 12/09/2025

Subject: D2. Parks & Recreation Master Plan Conceptual Design for Park Site on Breeze Hill Road Date: Thursday, June 19, 2025 7:45:31 AM
You don't often get email frorrj earn w 1y pis is imnortan Comments for consideration in the Discussion at the June 24, 2025 City Council Meeting.

The proposed park on Breeze Hill Road is very concerning to me as a resident and property owner in the Charlemont Condominiums, which is directly across the street from the proposed site.

My main concerns are:

1. Noise pollution from pickleball courts. The setup of the nearby buildings is prime for echoing through the nearby residential communities. Pickleball/telnis/basketball courts should not be in this small area so close to residences.

2. Noise pollution and sanitation concerns from two dog parks. Barking may echo and disturb people who work from home during the day and definitely disturb sleep at night. Will there be set hours of operation? Who will pick up dog waste left behind by negligent dog owners?

3. Sanitation and wasted water concerns from a splash pad. Will there be regular maintenance to prevent pooling water from becoming mosquito breeding grounds? A splash pad seems counter indicated in our drought area.

4. Increased traffic congestion and lack of street parking. Having a park of the proposed magnitude would invite too many people into a small area. The proposed plans with 9 or 16 parking stalls would be insufficient thereby leading visitors to park on the street. There is already a lack of street parking, especially on weekends and after 5pm on weekdays.

Some of the above concerns may be mitigated by having limited park hours, a lockable parking lot, and/or just removal of the proposed feature.

Both Concept Plan Options 1 and 2 have too many features. Removing several features ( i.e. pickleball courts, dog parks, and splash pad) would be better to save time and money for construction as well as for ongoing maintenance costs. Please " measure twice, cut once" and revisit the plans to ensure the best use of funds before moving forward.

Please give careful consideration of the proposed plans and how they impact nearby residents.

Thank you,
Judy Wu

City Council Meeting, Item D2, Parks and Recreation Master Plan Oppose synthetic turf, pour- in- placesurfacing, and toxic chemical binders in Vista’ s Parks
Mayor Franklin, Deputy Mayor Melendez, and Council Members Contreras, Fox and O’Donnell:

Thank you for the opportunity to submit comments on this item before the Council today. SHFPI is an all-volunteer 501- c-3 non- profit organization. We are committed to educating communities, policymakers and elected officials about the health, safety and financial realities of plastic fields versus grass fields and other synthetic surfaces for their parks and schools. Our constituency ranges from concerned individuals to community and civic organizations, legal, healthcare and science professionals, municipal leaders and state legislators.

At the 5 June 2025 meeting, which is not found listed on the City’s website, but was attended by virtue of being on a public interest mailing list, it was discovered the the agency contracted with by the Parks and Recreation Commission, is attempting to upsell renovations to the waterpark by including toxic items: synthetic turf and used tire crumb, known as PIP ( poured- in-place) surfacing. These were only discovered by reviewing the poster boards and pressing the consultants for explanation. These highly toxic and cancer causing materials have no place under residents or visitors feet nor released into the environment.

We question the motivation of the consultant at the 5 June 2025 meeting in trying to upsell the city on unsustainable, unnecessary, costly, highly toxic and non recyclable products such as synthetic turf and PIP ( needs to be replaced annually)- made more glaringly obvious in a serious budget crisis.

SHPFI urges you to not use these fossil fuel- based petrochemical plastic products in any park in Vista, and to develop a policy that provides open, natural, non- toxic, and safe places for all who reside and recreate in the city.

Vista must do more to protect children, adults and the environment. Please be aware of pertinent legislation, current and upcoming regulation:

CA DTSC - Microplastics, added to Priority Chemicals List.

CA DTSC - PFASand other chemicals of concern in synthetic turf (pg. 14).

Additional states have pending legislation regarding surfacing materials.

Synthetic Turf:

While the 2024 Parks Report does not define “turf” as natural or synthetic, it is clear that the intent, at least for the Wave Waterpark, is synthetic turf.

Current records for neighboring Carlsbad show synthetic turf replacements have jumped astronomically in pricing. Culled from public records a pre- covid costs of about $ 750,000 to 875, 000 to currently a whopping $ 2.5 million. New installations cost significantly more due to grading, sub- base preparation and installation of irrigation systems.

It should be noted that synthetic turf requires potable water- for cleaning and cooling the surface to a temperature safe for play. Reclaimed water has a higher salt content and degrades the plastic blades, backing, any underlayment pad and synthetic infill. It also causes the fake color to fade more quickly.

Potable water is required to clean synthetic fields of bacteria, 1,2 secretion of human fluids, waste left by pets and wildlife; often a requirement to maintain warranty. Failure to clean causes build up of bacteria, which is more prevalent in older synthetic surfaces. 3,4 Some plant based infill requires 3,200 gallons of ( potable) water every 3 to 4 days to maintain hydration. 5 Other infills require 6,500 to 8,000 gallons per 80, 000 feet2 of synthetic turf every 3 to 4 weeks based on humidity. 6
Potable water to cool the temperature synthetic turf to that of natural grass is greater than water required to maintain drought tolerant Bermuda grass varieties. 7 Amount of potable water to cool the surface “ to a temperature comparable to natural grass” is 2,200 gallons, beginning 1 to 2 hours prior to a game and repeated to maintain the cooler temperature throughout play ( effect lasts 20 to 50 mins). 8 While proper irrigation or water- cannon systems can lower the temperatures for 20+ minutes, plastic fields rapidly return to the high temperatures. These systems can cost into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Per various maintenance manuals, cleaning of synthetic turf requires the use of toxic chemicals, which will be added to the toxic run- off that leaches from the plastic to soil, air and water.

The California Department of Toxic Substances Control has determined it will be bringing synthetic turf under regulation for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances ( PFAS) that have been found in 100% of synthetic turf tested by academic, non- profit organizations and independent 8 TenCate Pivot 2024

Regulation will have major implications regarding disposal of these fossil fuel- based petrochemical products as well as potentially the ability to replace these fields in the near future.

CA DTSC PFAS fact sheet
From cradle to grave, fossil fuel extraction to production, manufacturing, use and disposal, plastics impact healthy soil, water, air, ecosystems, human health and wildlife. After its short useful life, it will need to be landfilled, and likely in a hazardous waste landfill due to its toxicity.

Yet another incredibly bad choice, on taxpayer dollars, for a product that harms not only children, but the environment as well.

Microplastics:

California’s Statewide Microplastics Strategy - Senate Bill No. 1263 ( Chapter 609), was enacted in 2018. 11 In addition, CA DTSC has announced its intent to add Microplastics to its Candidate Chemicals List for regulation. 12
A 2017 study found that a single synthetic turf field loses 0.5 to 0.8% of its blades annually. This estimate is ten times lower than a previous Danish study ( 0.8 kg/m2). This equates to 12 Safer Consumer Product Program ( 2023). “ Proposed Addition to the Candidate Chemicals List:

2,000 to 3,000 pounds of microplastic blade loss per year per field. 13,14 Newer playing fields that do not require infill poured on top of the synthetic carpet are more densely woven, may have double or triple backing, 15 and have the potential for significantly greater microplastic blade and carpet backing, as well as from the underlying shock pad, lost to the environment.

A manufacturer of newer generation of no infill synthetic turf reports 16 times more blades than infill based plastic turf. 16 This could potentially represent 32, 000 to 48,000 pounds of microplastic blade loss per synthetic field, per year.

more than three times higher than those sampled using a similar method in the North Atlantic subtropical gyre.”17,18,19
Synthetic turf fibers have been found in the world’s oceans, ranging from 12 to over 15 percent of the microplastics found, as reported by researchers in Spain, China, Japan, Australia, and Canada. Synthetic turf blades represent as much as 25% of microplastics in surface waters. 20 This research lead to the California Coastal Commission' s decision to not allow synthetic turf at UC Santa Barbara ( 13 Dec 2023) and stating synthetic turf is not superior to natural grass and is not sustainable.

Section 21080. 5(d)( 2)(A) of CEQA prohibits the Commission from approving a proposed development if there are feasible alternatives or feasible mitigation measures available that would substantially lessen any significant adverse effect which the activity may have on the environment.

For the reasons discussed in this report, the Commission has conditioned the NOID to require design and implementation of Final Revised Project Plans that do not include the installation of artificial turf.” 21 Additional loss of microplastics from the backing ( approximately 438 pounds/ per field annually), exclusive of the underlayment pad and infill. 22

pesticides, PFAS, heavy metals and more. Because they add excess nutrients to soil and water, they have been implicated in increased frequency and severity of toxic algal blooms. 23 The evidence of the negative impact of microplastic pollution on environmental health is equally daunting. From zooplankton, krill, whales, bees, and terrestrial animals of the Americas, macro-, micro- and nanoplastics are impacting aquatic and wildlife, and even our pets.

Synthetic turf and microplastics have caused a decrease in bird populations, accumulation of microplastics on bees, and negatively impacts ocean habitats and biodiversity both above and below ground. Research from 2021 estimated that > 1500 species have ingested microplastics. 24 Microplastics have even been found in air exhaled by dolphins via their blowholes. 25 25 Dziobak, MK, Fahlman, A, Wells, RS ( 16 Oct 2024). “ First evidence of microplastic inhalation among free- ranging small cetaceans.” PlosOne.

Contamination from microplastics is a global concern. It has become so severe that they have even been found in sea spray. 26,27,28
Drainage systems, with or without filters, nor straw wattles or catchment basins, will solve the issues of micro-, meso-, or nanoplastics. These plastic fragments readily loft into the air and can travel for miles and reloft over and over. The same applies to these plastic fragments in water, carrying their toxic payloads with them.

Chemical leachate from synthetic turf:

Microplastics both leach and adsorb toxic chemicals and bacteria in the environment, putting the food chain at risk. As outlined in the 27 Aug 2024 presentation by CA DTSC, there are multiple chemical classes of concern in synthetic turf. 29 Some of these chemicals include ( not comprehensive):

Even if the false industry claims of PFAS free synthetic turf were to become a reality some day, as outlined above, there are a multitude of chemicals, including those left over from oil fracking and ethane cracking, that are toxic and/ or cancer causing chemicals in this petrochemical plastic product that Vista would knowingly and willfully be exposing all who live, recreate, or visit on or near these massive impervious plastic fields to.

Per- and Polyuoroalkyl Substances - PFAS:

NO ONE NEEDS MORE PFAS
It is imperative to accept independent peer- reviewed research, not industry sponsored research, including that done by industry hired white- coats. 54
On 23 May 2023, the American Association for the Advancement of Science’s Center for Scientific Evidence in Public Issues ( AAAS EPI Center), hosted a virtual event with a panel of experts to discuss the drinking water standards announced by the US EPA in March 2023. The panelists discussed the proposed regulations, the significance of setting the first PFAS national drinking water standards, and the process the U.S. EPA has outlined for finalizing the rule.

SHPFI posed the question to international experts on PFAS, Drs. Linda Birnbaum and Jamie DeWitt, as to the adequacy of the announced 4 ppt maximum for PFOA and PFOS limit in drinking water’s ability to protect human and environmental health. Both clearly stated that this level was not adequate for protection and that there is no safe level of PFAS. See HERE @1: 00:28
Culled from public records, 32 PFAS have been found to date with independent testing:

there are cancer risks probability occurs as a result of chemical exposure from artificial turf. Cancer risk probability for different age categories was in the order: 7–15 years > 3–6 years > 19– 22 years > 16–18 years > 23– 55 years > 56– 70 years.”58 Of high significance, a study done by the Kassotis Lab ( Wayne State University, Detroit, MI) in conjunction with The Ecology Center ( Ann Arbor, MI), “In vitro endocrine and cardiometabolic toxicity associated with artificial turf materials” published in the October 2024 edition of Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, demonstrates the cytotoxic effects of chemicals in synthetic turf to endocrine organs, and cardiac development and function. This study also demonstrates the importance of looking at combined chemical exposures associated with a given product. 74 No one is ever exposed to one chemical- certainly not with plastics and definitely not with synthetic turf. A video of Dr. Kassotis discussing this pivotal research at the Sept. 2024 New York University, Langone Health symposium on plastics research is available HERE: 75
One of the over 16 thousand PFAS, PFOS, was found on the hands of young soccer players who played on synthetic turf in a small pilot study in San Diego in the summer of 2023. 76 That study is currently being replicated by the Kassotis Lab, Wayne State University, with 50 student athletes and multiple playing fields.

We have a noticed a variety of techniques used to generate false claims of “PFAS free”:

Inappropriate test methods ( i.e. soil or water testing instead of method for solids/ plastic) Use of deionized water or methanol as a solvent
Setting Reporting Limits ( RLs) too high ( limits are 590ppt for PFBA and 290ppt for other testable PFAS)
Not doing Synthetic Leaching Precipitation Procedure ( SPLP) to age sample( s) J” values not reported ( the estimated value less than the Reporting Limit ( RL) but greater than the Method Detection Limit (MDL))

TenCate Pivot testing data77
PFAS should be tested in parts per trillion ( ppt), not parts per million ( ppm). Independent and academic labs are able to test at 2 ppt. In the above example ( TenCate’s Geosurfaces Pivot no infill product), fluorine was found by their proprietary laboratory. 10 ppm is the equivalent of 10,000,000 ppt. The safe level of PFAS is ZERO.

The correct method for testing solids, US EPA 1633, was not used. Please be aware that this method can only test for some 40 PFAS chemicals out of over 16 thousand. 78 Also, absence of proof is not proof of absence.

Claims of compliance with US EPA and CA Proposition 65 criteria are meaningless. CA Prop. 65 only lists a handful of PFAS and requires businesses to comply with notifications of chemicals on the list to purchasers, and begs the legal question of whether manufacturers are notifying purchasers of the multiple chemicals in their products that are on the Prop. 65 list.

Testing should always be done by independent third- party laboratories using appropriate testing techniques and testing parameters. Signed affidavits claiming “ PFAS Free” are never acceptable. We cannot emphasize this strongly enough.
the turf manufacturer attests that no polyfluoroalkyl substances ( or PFAS) chemicals will be used in the synthetic material.”
If the industry were able to eliminate PFAS from its products some day, it would still be plastic, with myriad toxic, carcinogenic and hazardous chemicals. Synthetic turf is made of mixed plastics. Of the 16, 000 chemicals found in plastics, less than one percent can be considered non- hazardous. 79 Of the known chemicals, 4,200 are considered “ highly hazardous” to human 79 Wagner, M, Monclús, L, Arp, HPH et al ( Mar 2024). “ State of the science on plastic chemicals:

and environmental health. Of these 4,200 chemicals, only 980 have been regulated by any global agency. PFAS are amongst the 15 categories of chemicals of concern in plastics. 80 These chemicals add disease burden and health care costs. In the United States, for 2018, the attributable cost of plastics to disease and health care related costs was $ 249 billion; for PFAS alone, it was $ 22. 4 billion. 81 The societal cost globally is estimated at $ 16 trillion USD annually for PFAS clean ups and health care for impacted individuals. 82 Impervious Surface:

Synthetic turf is an impervious, or impermeable, surface, despite what the industry tells you.

The US EPA and the State of California are clear on this issue: 83 areas such as gravel roads... that will be compacted through design or use to reduce their impermeability.” It further has defined impervious surfaces as…[ a]ny surface that prevents or significantly impedes the infiltration of water into the underlying soil. This can include but is not limited to: roads, driveways, parking areas and other areas created using non porous material; buildings, rooftops, structures, artificial turf and compacted gravel or soil.”
Compaction, as well as the impervious plastic surface, result in increased runoff. Despite synthetic turf industry claims, laboratory testing is not the same as reality. Synthetic turf is unable to handle the amount of rain that comes with an atmospheric river or bomb cyclone.

With increasing frequency of these weather events, consideration of synthetic turf is antithetical to environmental responsibility and an even poorer choice for a product that must be replaced every 8 to 10 years on average.

Pollutants from aerial and terrestrial sources accumulate on impervious surfaces until runoff from a precipitation event carries sediment, nutrients, metals, and pesticides into stormwater drains and directly to local waterbodies. As impervious surfaces increase, stormwater runoff increases in quantity, speed, temperature, and pollutant load. When impervious surfaces reach 10– 20% of local watershed area, surface runoff doubles and 83 US EPA, MS4 General Permit Appendix A, Definitions, Abbreviations and Acronyms, https:// www3. epa. gov/ region1/ npdes/ stormwater/ ma/ 2016fpd/ appendix- a-2016- ma- sms4- gp. pdf 82 Staff writer ( 23 May 2023). “ ChemSec identifies the top 12 PFAS producers in the world and reveals shocking societal costs.

Plastic turf does not save water:

Grass doesn’ t waste water. People do!”
Dr. James Baird, UC Riverside Turfgrass Management Program Synthetic turf requires approximately 989 gallons of water to produce 1 square meter of turf estimated to be the equivalent of watering a square meter of natural grass for 18 years. 87 Synthetic turf does not save water and will generate 27, 000 gallons of toxic runoff per 1 acre of plastic for every one inch of rainfall. 88 Toxic runoff from the synthetic fields, gallons of toxic runoff per one inch of rainfall. With 30 inches of rainfall since January 2023, Vista has contributed 5,022,810 gallons of toxic runoff during rain events alone into surface and ground water as well as the ocean from Pala Vista, the Vista Sports Park, and Luz Duranparks alone. This is exclusive of required cleaning and irrigation and residential and commercial applications, and schools. Atmospheric events are predicted to increase in coming years, increasing toxic run off.

Heat:

Synthetic turf readily reaches temperatures of 160- 180F, regardless of infill type, and has been known to reach over 220F. At a surface temperature of 118°F, a first- degree thermal burn occurs in 15 minutes, becoming a 3rd degree burn ( full skin- thickness) in 20 minutes; at a temperature of 140° F, 1st degree burns occur in 3 seconds, and 3rd degree burns in 5 seconds. 90 Children have required admission to burn and intensive care units treatment of burns sustained on plastic playing surfaces.

An estimated 9,000 student athletes are treated for exertional heat illness each year. 91 The reduced functional level created by heat from synthetic surfaces, even at reasonable ambient temperatures can contribute to injuries due to compromised functional level.

As the planet heats up, athletes are increasingly impacted by heat related illness by playing on synthetic surfaces. Deaths among high school football players from heat stroke doubled from 2015 to 2017 when compared to the 5 preceding years. 92 Football players are eleven times more likely to suffer a heat related illness. Playing on synthetic turf is a contributing factor.

There is an increasing incidence of heat stroke amongst athletes. Mortality is high and if a child survives heat stroke, their risk for recurrence of heat illness is increased. 93 As the body heats, it is susceptible to absorbing more chemicals. PFAS have been shown to be absorbable via the skin. 94
Hours of play on synthetic turf is exaggerated by using calculations based on the booked/ scheduled hours of play, not the actual hours of play. The difference between the two can be significant. A reduction in hours of use will be increasingly impacted by:

Urban heat islands:

Synthetic turf off- gasses both methane and ethylene98,99 and continues day and night, in ever increasing amounts for the 1,000 years it takes for it to decompose. 100 Methane traps 90% more heat than carbon dioxide and is 21 times more potent. Land based plastics produce 2 times more methane and 76 times more ethylene than plastics found in waterways and oceans.

The heat islands created by plastic turf playing fields are large enough to be visible from satellites circling our planet. Even if all synthetic turf were removed from Carlsbad today, methane would linger in the atmosphere for approximately 12 years, contributing to climate change and sea level rise for hundreds of years after pollutants have been cleared from the air. 101

Not Recyclable:

Less than 6% of plastics are recycled. 103 Made of mixed plastics, synthetic turf is not recyclable, is a linear, not a circular product, and does not meet any definition of sustainability. The synthetic turf industry misrepresents its products when they make claims related to sustainability and environmental friendliness. It is not enough to use the vernacular of the day.

Circular products104are “… those products that have reduced or completely no need for virgin resources and are designed with the end of their life in mind.” The United Nations defines sustainable development105 as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” The UCLA Sustainability Committee106 notes: “In simplest terms, sustainability is about our children and our grandchildren, and the world we will leave them”.

The Rutgers Center for Sustainable Materials107definition:

Sustainable materials are materials used throughout our consumer and industrial economy that can be produced in required volumes without depleting non- renewable resources and without disrupting the established steady- state equilibrium of the environment and key natural resource systems.”
Each regulation sized field constitutes more than 40, 000 pounds of plastic carpet ( double to triple for 5th generation no infill turf) and over 400,000 pounds of infill.

The reality is, many landfills will not accept the massive amounts of plastic waste synthetic turf fields consist of. Removal of each regulation- sized field would result in approximately 200 rolls weighing 2,000 pounds each, then transported 18 rolls per flatbed semi- truck to their disposal site. They are most often dumped on agricultural land or stored in warehouses and listed for resale to unsuspecting customers on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace and other internet outlets. This is not recycling, but rather kicking the can down the road, leaving future generations to contend with the multiple long term human and environmental health effects from massive quantities of plastic waste.

Injuries:

Independent peer- reviewed research consistently shows significantly increased non- contact lower extremity injuries109and concussions, 110 particularly for children111- playing on synthetic turf is a contributing factor:
315, 000 to 850,000 concussions occur every year among high school athletes.

Repeated concussions increase risk of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy ( CTE) The Concussion Legacy Foundation reported that repetitive brain trauma is associated with CTE and has been found in 17 year olds. 41. 4% of athletes under age 30 show signs of CTE. 112
In high school American football players, concussions occur when head impacts approach 95 g.

For youth American football players aged 9-14; 62. 4 ± 29.7 g was the threshold for concussions.

Hidden costs associated with synthetic turf:

Annual GMax testing- ~$ 1,515. More frequently if it fails testing. A maximum result of 165 is the safety threshold advised by Sports Field Management Association, a professional association with a core mission being safety of athletes of all ages and abilities, from peewee to professional. 165 is also found in the Synthetic Turf Council STC) Glossary of Terms and Guidelines for Synthetic Turf Performance ( when were Vista’s plastic fields last tested for hardness?)

Open Green Space Has Mental Health Benets:

Natural green spaces have been shown to mitigate aggressive behavior in adolescents81 and significantly reduce the growing risk of psychiatric disorders82 and suicide mortality. 83 Natural green spaces also reduce health risks such as asthma. 84 exposure to nature has been linked to a host of benefits, including improved attention, lower stress, better mood, reduced risk of psychiatric disorders and even upticks in empathy and cooperation.” American Psychological Association85 Initially published in Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment, Harvard86:

Increase equity for Vista residents and visitors.

Equity in does not mean exposing people of color, vulnerable populations or environmental and social justice communities to harm. Plastic turf does not increase equity.

Equity would be offering reduced fees or scholarships for those that cannot afford admission to the waterpark or team sports; ensuring equal open field play time as scheduled play time; ensuring that Vista residents have more access to their own parks and playing fields, not organized team sports or teams from other cities.

Used tire crumb surfacing:

Used tire crumb has been widely used in playground surfacing, known as poured in place ( PIP) surfacing. It has come under scrutiny in recent years due to the hundreds of toxic and carcinogenic chemicals it contains, which can leach into air, water and soil and their negative impacts on human and environmental health. Tire crumbs are microplastics.

The California Coastal Commission conditioned three recent permits for playground surfacing at Newport Beach Elementary School and a planned project for a playground in Mission Bay, San Diego, and Venice Beach, CA to specifically exclude PIP surfacing.

Select Chemicals in Used Tire Crumb Surfacing:

Yale researchers ( 2019) identified a total of 306 chemicals in crumb rubber. Of these, 52 are classified as known carcinogens and another 6 are considered suspected or presumed carcinogenic by both the US EPA and the European Chemicals Agency ( ECHA). An additional 197 are considered carcinogenic a priori. 119
The chemical binders used in PIP surfacing are highly toxic. They break down more readily in hot, humid and salty conditions, such as reclaimed water, which is often used in waterpark splash pads. Annual replacement is an ongoing expense and added taxpayer burden, and will require closure of the splash pad. Work must occur when it is warm.

Absorption of the chemicals through the skin is highly concerning. Children bear a larger body burden than adults.

Chemicals in used tire crumb are highly toxic to wild and aquatic life, as well. These chemicals can leach into water and impact water quality. They degrade into micro- and nanoplastics, and are readily lost to drains. Filters will not capture all microplastics and virtually no nanoplastics or chemical leachate.

Used tire crumb chemicals that impact human and environmental health include PFAS and additional chemicals of concern, including, but are not limited to:

Zinc:

A threat to aquatic organisms, zinc and other metals are known to leach from used tire crumb. 5,120
A big wake up call came in 2019 when Canadian researchers were studying the effects of crumb rubber leachate on chicken embryos. Zinc was the most abundant metal ion leached from the tire crumb, followed by copper. Amniote vertebrate were used to determine the impacts of crumb rubber on higher vertebrates, including humans, as birds and mammals “ show little interspecific variation and amniotes undergo no genome duplications.” Findings include mild to severe malformations, reduced growth including of the midbrain, the cardiovascular system, and gene, thyroid and other endocrine response pathways. 121 Zinc in motor vehicle tires is a proposed priority for California Department of Toxic Substances Control. 122

Carbon black:

A known carcinogen, carbon black constitutes 30 to 40% of tires by weight. Given the amount of time that children and student athletes play on used crumb rubber infilled synthetic turf and playground surfaces, the potential risk for disease and cancer is of no small consequence. This is particularly so for young children who are of shorter stature, have less control over musculature to break falls, have a larger head to body mass ratio, and due to developmental stages. 123 It should be noted that developmental stages extend through adolescence. 6PPD, 6PPDquinone:

On 15 July 2021, Representative Katie Porter, then chair of the US House of Representatives Natural Resources Committee, Sub- committee on Oversight and Investigations, held a hearing on toxic chemicals from car tires and playing surfaces. 124 This was in response to the December 2020 discovery by researchers at the University of Washington announced their discovery of antiozonant N-( 1,3- dimethylbutyl)- N-phenyl- p-phenylenediamine ( 6PPD) in tires. 6PPD converts to 6PPD- quinone ( 6PPDq) when it interacts with ozone. 125 6PPDq has resulted in a 40- 90% decline in coho salmon populations- a federally designated endangered species126that is also implicated in US treaties with several Native American Tribes. 127 In addition to coho salmon, 6PPDq has also been found to be acutely toxic to rainbow and brook trout. 128 Even if this harmful chemical was removed from tire production today, we will be dealing with the legacy of its use for the next 15 to 20 years.”Nisqually Tribe biologist, 128 Brinkmann, M, Montgomery, D, Selinger, S et al (2 Mar 2022). “ Acute Toxicity of the Tire Rubber- Derived Chemical 6PPD- quinone to Four Fishes of Commercial, Cultural, and Ecological Importance.” Environmental Science and Technology Letters. 9 ( 4): 333– 338 https:// pubs. acs. org/ doi/ 10. 1021/ acs. estlett. 2c00050 127 Middleton Manning, BR, Lusardi, R (13 July 2023). “ Removing Dams from the Klamath River is a Step Toward Justice for Native Americans.” Climate News, UC Davis. https:// www. ucdavis. edu/ climate/ news/ removing- dams- klamath- river- step- toward- justice- native- americans northern- california

6PPD is more toxic than Mercury, 27 times more toxic than Cyanide, 425 times more toxic than Arsenic and more toxic than DDT... we do know that all those same ingredients in the chemical reaction that kills salmon are in those playground and playing surfaces... What we need is research on the risks from 6PPD quinone and on the possible substitutes. We need to treat this with urgency befitting a danger to our children.” 8
tire chemicals are also a concern for the effects of air pollution on human health.

The smallest particles that wear from tires contribute to the particle pollution of air.

These particles are inhaled when we breathe, and they release chemicals when they settle on the wet surfaces inside our lungs. We know that humans living closer to busy roads have poorer health outcomes due to air pollution. It is important that we learn whether 6PPD- quinone plays a role in the toxicity documented when human cells are exposed to chemicals released from tires…Studies are needed to determine the relative contributions of 6PPD- quinone from tires during their use on vehicles as well as the various end-of- life uses of tires such as crumb rubber in playgrounds and synthetic turf fields.” 130
Playing fields and playgrounds have been shown to be contributing factors. 6PPD and 6PPDq are the latest in an extremely lengthy list of chemicals that are harmful to human and environmental health, can be ingested, inhaled, absorbed via skin, 131,132 and to negatively impact animal and human liver cells. 133
The San Francisco Estuary Institute 2021 report submitted to the California Ocean Protection Council found that tire wear particles contributed 85% of microplastics in stormwater runoff across 12 test sites in the bay area. Playgrounds, rubber infill for synthetic turf and rubberized asphalt were all found to be contributing sources of tire particles in urban runoff. 134 134 Werbowski, LM, Gilbreath, AN, Munno, K et al (2021). “ Urban Stormwater Runoff: A Major Pathway for Anthropogenic Particles, Black Rubbery Fragments, and Other Types of Microplastics to Urban Receiving Waters.” ACS ES& T Water; 1 ( 6), 1420- 1428.

equipment and surfacing than other areas in parks. 141 This makes synthetic turf and rubber playground surfaces clearly major point sources of PFAS and microplastic pollution that cannot go unaddressed.

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons ( PAHs):

Multiple studies have shown PAHS in crumb rubber. Research released in 2023 has shown the bioaccessibility of most of the 16 US EPA PAHs and 8 ECHA ( European Chemicals Agency) PAHs in used tire crumb. 142 Newly released research from Greece found that dust from used tire crumb playgrounds top coated with EPDM showed a six fold increase in exposure to petroleum based PAHs in dust that extended beyond the playground surface and onto surrounding concrete areas. 143
Lead ( Pb):

Lead and other heavy metals are found in used tire crumb and in playground surfacing. 144 In PIP pour in place) surfacing, which is heterogeneous, lead levels can vary widely, including hot- spots with significantly higher lead readings from one area to another. Used tire crumb is known to have leachable lead.

Numerous experts worldwide have stated there is no safe level of lead exposure:

There is no level of exposure to lead that is known to be without harmful effects. Lead exposure is preventable.” World Health Organization
There is no safe level of lead exposure in children, with lasting decreases in cognition documented in children with blood levels as low as 5 micrograms per deciliter of lead in blood.” American Academy of Pediatrics
It is also likely that when many more athletes are active on a field ( e.g., 22 in a football game), the “ cloud” of particulates that is generated may result in an elevated exposure relative to the particulates mobilized by a single occupant.” Drs. Stuart L Shalat and Alan Stern

data provide sufficient evidence to eliminate childhood lead exposure by banning all nonessential uses of lead and further reducing the allowable levels of lead in air emissions, house dust, soil, water, and consumer products.” Pediatrician and researcher on lead, children’s health and environment, Dr. Bruce Lanphear
No safe blood lead level in children has been identified. Children are especially at risk from lead because of their small size and developing brains. Lead exposure can affect nearly every system in the body. Even low levels of lead in blood have been shown to negatively affect a child’s intelligence, ability to pay attention, and academic achievement. Removing all sources of lead exposure is important before a child is harmed.” Centers for Disease Control ( CDC).

Phthalates:

Phthalates are used extensively in the manufacturing of plastics. Like PFAS, they have endocrine disrupting effects. 146 Like lead, they also have neurotoxic effects.

Ortho- phthalates are diesters of phthalic acid and are the predomina[ n]te type of phthalate used in commerce… They are high- production- volume chemicals used most often as a plasticizer in polyvinyl chloride ( PVC) and other plastics.” 147 As plasticizers, they are used in plastic toys, playground equipment, “ natural rubber” and tire manufacturing. 148 Use of phthalate- containing products is choosing to risk impairment of children' s I.Q.s, their brains and their overall health.

Chemical binders:

The chemicals used to bind loose playground surfacing materials and walkways ( including natural materials such as engineered wood fiber ( EWF), cork, wood mulch, decomposed granite) contain toxic and carcinogenic chemicals, including, but not limited to Chemistry and Analytical Sciences (CAS)
149
registration numbers :

Polymethylenepolyphenyl polyisocyanate, polypropylene glycol copolymer; CAS 53862- 89- 8;
Diphenylmethane Diisocyanate, isomers and homologues; CAS # 9016- 87-9; 4,4'-Methylenediphenyl diisocynate; CAS # 101- 68-8.

These chemical binders are plastics and also have impacts on aquatic organisms. 150,151 Finally, chemical binders do not “bind” for long, and break down even more quickly in hot, humid and wet environments.

Plastics and Playground Equipment:

By using plastic playground surfacing and equipment, proposed all-inclusive playgrounds in Vista will increase risk and harm from toxic and carcinogenic chemicals in these products and microplastics released from them, to vulnerable populations, 152,153,154 exclude deaf and hearing impaired individuals, and cause extensive environmental harm.

Plastic playground equipment poses significant risk from chemical exposure via dermal contact, inhalation and ingestion. Young children are particularly vulnerable to chemical exposure due to developmental windows.

Plastic playground equipment, particularly slides, create an equity barrier for hearing impaired children and adults with cochlear implants ( CI). 155 Static builds up and can completely wipe out internal software in implants, requiring an expensive visit to a CI audiologist for re-installation.

The alternative would be to remove implants during play on these surfaces, imposing risk of injury when a child cannot hear caregivers. It also leaves a child to play in silence, negatively impacting necessary social interaction skills required for development.

It is possible to construct playgrounds without using plastic surfacing ( i.e. used tire crumb, ethylene propylene deine monomer, polyvinyl chloride) and still meet Americans with Disabilities Act ( ADA) requirements. ADA addresses accessibility, not surfacing.156 The accessibility standards are minimum standards and do not require the entire play surface area to be accessible. The only required accessible surface area includes the accessible route from the entry of the play area, at least one connection to each accessible play component (points of entry and egress) and any clear space requirements adjacent to accessible play components.”157 157 US Access Board ( 2014). “ Surfacing the Accessible Playground: 7 Things Every Playground Owner Should Know About the Accessibility of Their Playground Surfaces.” https:// www. access- board. gov/ ada/ guides/ chapter- 10- play- surfaces/# 156 Pollard, L, Massey, R ( Dec 2023). “ Playground Surfacing: Choosing Safer Materials for Children' s Health and the Environment.” Toxics Use Reduction Institute, Univ.

We urge Vista to not use toxic and cancer causing materials in the Wave Waterpark, nor any other park in the city. These are wholly unnecessary petrochemical plastics that endanger human and environmental health and are not recyclable. It is illogical to ask taxpayers and visitors to pay for recurring expenses that are harmful. It is entirely possible to create splash pads and ADA compliant playground surfacing without toxic surfacing. 12/09/2025

Vista Courthouse Park Planning meeting
April 24th 2025 at the Vista Civic Center
We attended the April 24th Vista Park planning meeting with the expectation that the city was gathering initial feedback from local residents regarding potential park designs. However, it appears that many signicant decisions may have already been made, with limited consideration for how the development will impact the daily lives of nearby residents— particularly those in the Charlemont Community and Avalon Apartments. These long- established neighborhoods are located directly adjacent to the proposed park site and will be the most aected. It seemsonly fair that their qualityof lifebe considered when determiningwhich park featuresare implemented.We
standby ouroriginalconcernsfor the developmentof thisproperty, which includeincreasednoise, trac, congestion, declinein propertyvalue, and the park becominga gathering placefor the homeless. Belowis a listofissuesandconcerns:The large
numberof features proposedin both options, especiallyconsideringthe limited sizeof the property, raises concerns. Each individual featureadds to congestionandnoise. However, when combined—such as a pickleballcourt, dog park, playground, splashpad, work out stations, and others— the cumulativeimpactbecomes a much greaterdisruptionfor the localcommunity. It' s importantto note thata signicantportionof CharlemontandAvalon is less than50 yardsfromthe property.Pickleball courts
are very popularand typically remainbusy throughoutthe day, generatingcontinuousnoise. Even if the courtswereplaced as shown on either of the conceptmapsbelow, the elevatedlocationon a hill wouldallowthe soundto carry easilyto the Charlemontcommunity. Thibodo Park in Vista has experiencednumerousresident complaints related to pickleballcourtnoise, and similar issueshave occurredin Encinitas andother parkswherecourts were installedtoo close to prior establishedresidential homes. A park
of this magnituderequiresdened hours of operationandshould not remain openinto the evening, when most residentsare returning homefrom work. If a parkinglotis included, it’s essentialthatit be gatedandlocked duringnon- operationalhoursto preventovernightparking, late- night gatherings, unauthorized use, and issuesrelatedto homelessness.Dogparks
presentpersistentnoise from barkingdogs and requireconsistentmaintenance, especially to ensure dogwaste is promptlyremoved. Even if placedatthe farthestpointfrom Charlemontand Avalon homes, the noise wouldstill travel and be a constantdisturbanceto residents. Therefore, the area next to Avalonandalong BreezeHill Road, oppositeCharlemont, should be preservedas open spacewith only grassareasand walkingpaths.We are
stronglyopposedto the splashpad as thesefacilitiescreate excessivenoise, raise serioussanitationconcerns, and Vista is in a drought-intolerantregion and has very limitedwaterresources. This is why theCity of San Diegohas institutedyear-round mandatorywater restrictions for all watercustomers, aiming to promotewaterconservationduring the recurringdroughtcycles. During our visits to severalparkswithin Vista’ s city limits, we' ve observedthatpublic restroomsare poorly maintained, unsanitary, and in manycasesunusable. Restroomsmay seem like a greatfeaturein the planningprocess; however, when given to the public, the facilitiesare always unkept, misused, and vandalized.

The evidence of this canbe observedby visiting anypublic parkrestroomand witnessingthe conditions rsthand.Some parks
allow peopleto get permitsfor large partiesthat include loud music lastingfor hours, whichwill result in extendeddisturbancesfor nearby residents. This should not be allowed. 12/09/2025

The park's proximity to the Vista Detention Center — where individuals are released daily, often without a place to go — is concerning. In the past, we've had to contact local police regarding incidents of loitering, vandalism, and disturbances involving individuals on Charlemont property. The new park could provide another location for this behavior to occur.

In summary, we believe the following points are essential:

The final proposal should be scaled down significantly. Including so many features on such a small parcel of land — right next to residential homes — feels excessive and unnecessary. The current plans include six to seven different elements, which, given the limited space, create a cumulative impact that significantly increases disruption to the surrounding community.

Ideally, a grass park with walking paths, workout stations, and picnic benches would be more than sufficient and require much less limited resources to implement and maintain. Keeping the development modest would be both beneficial and respectful to local residents. A park of this scale should be reserved for a location that is large enough to accommodate the features without undue burden to the local neighborhood.

We understand that we are just one voice among many in shaping the direction of this park project.

However, many of the opinions influencing this decision will come from individuals who don't live in our neighborhood — people who will enjoy the benefits of the park without facing the day-to-day challenges it will bring to those of us living right next to it.

We are requesting the city to conduct a sound demonstration test so that residents can experience a real-time simulation of the park's noise levels. Previously, a representative from the Vista Planning Committee attended one of our Charlemont board meetings to gather input from residents on potential park designs. We believe it is essential for the city to revisit Charlemont and Avalon prior to the final decision, as these communities will face the greatest impact from the park.

As you make your final decision, PLEASE consider how you would feel if a project of this scale were planned directly next to your own home. The impact on our daily lives, peace, and privacy is important and long - invested in.

Good evening board members:
t pis is
Unfortunately, I am unable to attend this meeting in person as I currently travel for work out of state and will be in the Eastern Time Zone, which places me three hours ahead of California time. My wife will attempt to attend the meeting via Zoom on my behalf. Included below are the speaking points I prepared and would have delivered had I been able to attend in person.

We appreciateyour time on this matter.

Good evening, members of the Board,
Thank you for taking the time to address the concerns of our community regarding the development of Breeze Hi11 Park. We understand that this project is a significant undertaking, and we appreciatethe opportunity to voice our concerns tonight.

As you may already be aware, we have provided a detailed email outlining our specific concerns about the proposed development, particularly regarding the possible over development of this relatively small parcel of land.

Our main concern is excessive noise from the combination of pickleball courts, playgrounds, splashcourts, and dog parks so close to our homes.

Congestion from additional traffic and limited parking spilling out onto Breeze Hill rd.

The Parks close proximity to a detention center raises safety and loitering concerns, and without secure gating and hours of operation, will attract homeless individuals and those living in their vehicles.

Charlemont is very desirable location, we are contacted several times a mouth by real estate agents with prospective buyers looking for available units. A park, creating excessive noise through the day, will likely have a negative impact on property values.

We moved into Charlemont 15 years ago drawn in by the peaceful and quiet setting and this is our planned retirement home. A park of this magnitude should be reserved for a larger more remote location. Our fear is it will drastically reduce our quality of life that we have invested in for so long.

Ideally, grass park with walking paths, workout stations, and picnic benches would be more than sufficient for a property this size. Keeping the development modest would require much less resources to implement, maintain and would take into consideration the livelihood of the local residents.

With that, we are requesting the city conducts a sound demonstration test so that residents can experience a real-time simulation of the park's noise levels.

As you make your final decision, we respectfully ask that you put yourselves in our position D2

I am a longtime resident of Charlemont Condominium and havegreatconcern of the Vista park proposal. First of all it’s a small property of which a the park would be built on and the noice with loud music from largeparties is veryconcerning. Myunit faces the property and I would hear the loud sounds from the park. I also haveconcern of a bathroom facility would draw largegroupsof homelessness. I alreadyseegroupsof homeless people in this areawhich was nevera problem until recently. It is also close to the detention center whereindividuals are releaseddaily and this could be aconcern of safety and loitering. Becauseof the developments of the two apartment complexes has increased traffic conditions. I’m also concerned this would bringpeople living in their vehicles.

I’m hopingyou would consider to scale down the proposal of a much smaller park area with a walk about areawith grassand perhaps few benches for those walkingtheir pets or just walking the neighborhood.

Thankyou for your consideration of downsizingyour park proposal and for your attention of my email with my concerns.

All the best,
