A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

WATSONVILLE APPROVING A SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT WITH

HOPE SERVICES, A CORPORATION, TO PROVIDE LITTER

ABATEMENT SERVICES AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS

BEAUTIFICATION SERVICES, IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED
$260,208, FOR A THREE-YEAR CONTRACT TERM; AND

AUTHORIZING AND DIRECTING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE
SAME
WHEREAS, competitive bidding requirements for the purchase of supplies, equipment and non-personal contractual services and the sale of personal property are set forth in Chapter 5 of Title 3 of the Municipal Code; and WHEREAS, Sole Source Provisions exempt this contract with Hope Services, a corporation, under subdivision (c) of § 3-5.210, from the bidding requirements; and WHEREAS, Hope Services, a corporation, is the only local non-profit which does litter abatement and has previously provided these unique nonprofessional services to the City.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WATSONVILLE, CALIFORNIA, AS FOLLOWS:

1. This action is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5), in that adopting a Resolution approving a sole source contract for Litter Abatement Services and Other Miscellaneous Beautification Services does not meet CEQA's definition of a “project,” because the action does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and because the action constitutes organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the

Reso No. (CM)
Meeting Date: 051424 2
environment and if a “project,” is exempt under the “common sense” exception (14 Cal.

Code Regs. § 15061(b)(3)) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that this action may have a significant effect on the environment.

2. The Council finds that the contract for Litter Abatement Services and Other Miscellaneous Beautification Services is available from one source that meets the needs of the City (also known as a sole source purchase).

3. This contract is exempt from the purchasing procedures of Chapter 5 of Title 3 of the Municipal Code as a sole source purchase under subdivision (c) of § 3-5.210 of the Municipal Code.

4. The Council hereby approves the three-year contract between the City of Watsonville and Hope Services, a corporation, for Litter Abatement Services and Other Miscellaneous Beautification Services, in an amount not to exceed $260,208.

5. The City Manager is hereby authorized and directed to execute said Agreement for and on behalf of the City of Watsonville, in the form attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, with minor revisions that may be approved by the City Manager and the City Attorney.

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt:

1. A resolution accepting the Engineer’s Report; and a resolution of Intention to Order Improvements, Levy and Collect Assessments and Set a Public Hearing for July 9, 2024, to consider the annual program and budget for the Bay Breeze Subdivision Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Assessment District PK-03-02 for the 2024- 2025 Fiscal Year.

There is no increase proposed for the annual assessment.

DISCUSSION:

Bay Breeze LLMAD
The Bay Breeze Subdivision is located at the southwest corner of Ohlone Parkway and Harkins Slough Road. The Bay Breeze Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Assessment District (LLMAD) program includes the following:

1. Maintenance and replacement of the street trees within the subdivision.

2. Operation, maintenance, repair, and replacement of the detention basins and the

C:\Program Files\eSCRIBE\TEMP\1912850945\1912850945,,,Report - Accept Engineer's Report for LLMADS.docx detention basin access roads within the subdivision.

3. Operation, maintenance, repair, and replacement of the perimeter fencing around the entire subdivision.

4. Maintenance and replacement of the plantings done as part of the wetland mitigation plan.

5. Maintenance of the environmental management parcel created within the subdivision.

6. Maintenance, repair, and replacement of the landscaping within the public right-ofway abutting and within the subdivision, including the Ohlone Parkway medians.

7. Operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the sewer pump station.

8. Maintenance of the graffiti coatings on the public exposure of the perimeter walls along the district boundaries.

The Bay Breeze Subdivision LLMAD is comprised of 114 single family residential parcels.

The annual costs for the operation, maintenance, and servicing of landscaping and street lighting improvements are apportioned to each parcel within the district in proportion to the EDU’s (Equivalent Dwelling Unit) assigned to the parcel as a percentage of the total number of EDU’s assigned to all parcels within the district.

Staff is recommending that Council accept the annual engineer’s report, which recommends a 2.6% CPI increase for 2024-25 and to schedule a public hearing on July 9, 2024. Staff will schedule a meeting with homeowners to discuss the proposed increase and collect feedback.

Vista Montaña LLMAD
The Vista Montaña Subdivision is located off of East Lake Avenue and adjacent to Ann Soldo Elementary School and the Bay Village subdivision. The Vista Montaña Subdivision Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Assessment District includes the following:

1. Regular maintenance, repair, and replacement of all facilities within the agricultural buffer area (except the street and utilities) which includes but is not limited to, the landscaping, signage, perimeter wall, retaining walls, pedestrian path, and erosion control plantings within or adjacent to the detention basins and drainage swale.

2. Operation, maintenance, repairs, and replacement of and power for the street lighting within the district.

3. Regular maintenance, repair, and replacement of the parkway strip and street trees on Cipres, Roble, Arce, Manzana, Cirvelo, Cereze, and Secoya Streets and Vista Montaña, Franich, and Marcela Drives.

4. Operation, maintenance, repair, and replacement of the storm drain detention basins, drainage channel, drainage facilities, and erosion control measurers within the agricultural buffer, including the storm drain culvert crossing Highway 152 and the inlet structure on the west side of Highway 152.

5. Regular maintenance, repair, and replacement of the landscaping and perimeter wall along the Highway 152 frontage adjacent to the district boundaries, including graffiti removal.

C:\Program Files\eSCRIBE\TEMP\1912850945\1912850945,,,Report - Accept Engineer's Report for LLMADS.docx

6. Regular maintenance, repair, and replacement of the pedestrian/bike path connecting Secoya Street and McKenzie Avenue, adjacent to the district boundaries.

7. Regular maintenance, repair, and replacement of pedestrian pathways located at the end of Roble Street, at the end of Cirvelo Street, within the agricultural buffer area and parallel to Bridge Street, on the south side of the town homes parallel to Franich Drive and on the west side of the town homes parallel to Marcela Drive.

The Vista Montaña Subdivision LLMAD is comprised of two Zones: A and B. Zone A benefits all parcels within the district which includes, for example, the street lighting installed along Highway 152, the landscape improvements along Highway 152 and the agricultural buffer area. Zone B benefits those parcels within the single-family residential area primarily and includes the maintenance of the street end caps, the park strips and street lighting.

The Assessment District is based on a total number of Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDU’s) and maximum annual assessments are included in the Engineer’s Report.

Fees for Fiscal Year 2020-2021 were not increased from the prior year due to concerns from some property owners regarding the quality of service to the landscape strip in front of their homes and who expressed that they did not want an increase to their assessments.

Since then, City staff have held several community meetings with district property owners to present the details of the scope of district services the City provides and the associated budget that limits the City’s work. Staff also provided details regarding the LLMAD’s reserve account, which is currently well below levels needed to afford inevitable repairs as the development nears the 20-year mark.

Over the past year, City staff have conducted extensive outreach efforts to inform homeowners of the current state of the LLMAD and to collect feedback on solutions. These efforts include:
 4 homeowner meetings (June 2023 (x2), January 2024 and February 2024)  3 newsletters summarizing these meetings mailed to all homeowners  Forming a volunteer Advisory Group consisting of homeowners that met one to two times a month for six months to help inform communications and proposed future funding priorities
Options discussed with homeowners included:

1. Maintain the status quo fees, with annual CPI increases, which would result in a reduction of services to only essential safety related maintenance. The remainder of funds would be used to build the reserve; or

2. Increase fees to maintain current maintenance levels, or

3. Increase fees, implement the increase over time, and reduce current maintenance levels to limit the amount fees are increased by.

City staff worked with a consultant to develop updated annual maintenance and future replacement costs and a proposed rate increase. The consultant has assisted City staff in

C:\Program Files\eSCRIBE\TEMP\1912850945\1912850945,,,Report - Accept Engineer's Report for LLMADS.docx creating a proposal and communicating with homeowners to work towards a ballot to increase fees. This proposed Overlay (Vista Montaña LLMAD Number 2) will be introduced under the same timeline as this year’s original LLMAD’s annual Engineer’s Report and assessment fee adjustment.

Staff is recommending that Council accept the annual engineer’s report, which recommends a 2.6% CPI increase for 2024-25, while the community considers how they wish to move forward long-term and to set the public hearing for July 9, 2024.

Gonzales LLMAD
The Gonzales Street Alleyway LLMAD was established to assist the residents bordering the alleyway and adjoining small parcel to cooperatively maintain this parcel that is now owned by the City but benefits its neighbors. The annual cost of $600 to maintain the area was spread among the 17 parcels with one parcel not immediately adjacent to the alley paying slightly less.

STRATEGIC PLAN:

The Assessment District addresses the City Council’s strategic goals of:
03-Infrastructure & Environment
06-Public Safety
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Bay Breeze LLMAD (0354-958)
For Fiscal Year 2024-2025, the total District assessment will be increased to $71,521.15 which is the maximum allowed per the Engineer's Report and reflects the increase in the Consumer Price Index of 2.6%. This amount includes the budget for annual maintenance and the remainder to be placed in a reserve for the replacement of trees, lights, sewer pump station, and perimeter fencing. The following chart summarizes this change and the assessment per EDU.

Item 23/24 24/25
Maintenance $21,517 $24,159
Reserve $46,162 $47,362
Total Annual Assessment $69,709 $71,521
Annual Assessment per EDU $611.48 $627.38
Vista Montaña LLMAD (0354-959)
For Fiscal Year 2024-2025 the total annual assessment will be increased to $157,646.91 to reflect the 2.6% increase in the consumer price index and includes funds for annual maintenance and the reserve, which provides for replacement costs of such things as lighting or street trees based on current EDU’s within the district.

LLMAD funds would be used in one of two ways, depending on whether the Overlay is approved by homeowners. The following chart summarizes how funds would be budgeted and the assessment per EDU:

Total Annual Assessment $153,652 $157,646 $157,646
Annual Assessment per EDU
Single Family Home $560.28 $574.84 $574.84
Townhome $448.22 $459.88 $459.88
Apartment $154.56 $158.58 $158.58
If the Overlay is approved, 30% of maintenance costs will be paid for by the new Overlay, with the remaining 70% coming from the existing assessment. Over the next five years, the new Overlay would gradually increase until it almost fully funds annual maintenance.

Remaining funds would be moved to the reserve.

If the Overlay is not approved, maintenance will be reduced to only what is necessary for safety and to maintain essential stormwater infrastructure. Remaining funds would be moved to the reserve.

It should be noted that annual maintenance expenses for the LLMAD have exceeded the budget defined in the Engineer’s Report since nearly the beginning of its existence, leaving close to zero available to be deposited into the reserve many years. Due to increased maintenance levels in anticipation of this Fiscal Year is no exception. In order to keep expenses as close to budget as possible, staff have had to limit maintenance performed to levels below what homeowners may desire. Overspending on annual maintenance year over year has left less funds available to move to the reserve than budgeted. As a result, the assessment revenue did not create the ability to build a reserve over time to fund eventual capital repair and/or replacement of District assets. In addition, for many years fees were not increased annually by CPI to cover rising costs of service. In 2008, at the request of homeowners, the reserve was used for additional landscaping installations that created more annual maintenance costs. According to the Engineer’s Budget, the reserve account for the District should have well over $800,000 today, however, the current balance is around $70,000.

Gonzales LLMAD (0291-604)
The $600 total annual maintenance costs are allocated toward plant care, mowing, and/or clearing and general alleyway maintenance.

ALTERNATIVE ACTION:

The Council could elect to:

1. Accept the Engineer’s Report, but not set the public hearing, thereby not adjusting assessments, or

2. Not accept the Engineer’s Report and not set the public hearing, thereby not adjusting assessments, or

3. A combination of the above options for one, two or all LLMADs.

BENEFIT SPREAD METHODOLOGY
The total operation, maintenance and servicing cost for the landscaping, street lighting, open space and other improvements are apportioned in accordance with a methodology that is consistent with standard assessment engineering practices.

Since the assessments are levied on the owners of properties as shown on the secured property tax rolls, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number.

Assessment District No. PK-03-02 is comprised of 114 single family residential parcels (each defined as an Equivalent Dwelling Unit or EDU). The annual costs for the operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping and street lighting improvements shall be apportioned to each parcel within the District in proportion to the EDU’s assigned to the parcel as a percentage of the total number of EDU’s assigned to all parcels within the district.

The maximum assessment rate per EDU that may be levied is set at the rates shown below. The maximum assessment rate may be increased annually each fiscal year by an amount which shall not be greater than the increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for all Urban Consumers for the San Francisco Area in any fiscal year for the year ending in December of the preceding year. Per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Western Information Office, the Consumer Price Index for the San Francisco Bay Area during the calendar year of 2023 was 2.6%.

DRAFT

7 PART B

ESTIMATE OF COST
The 1972 Act provides that the total cost of installation, construction, operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping and appurtenant facilities can be recovered by the District.

Maintenance can include the repair and replacement of existing facilities. Servicing can include electrical and associated costs from a public utility. Incidental expenses, including administration of the District, engineering fees, legal fees, printing, posting, and mailing of notices, and all other costs associated with the annual collection process can also be included.

The projected costs for the maintenance, repair and servicing costs of the improvements upon completion and acceptance by the City are summarized in the table shown on the following page.

The costs shown are based upon an estimate of the annual costs for maintenance and servicing of the improvements upon completion of the improvements. In addition, a Capital Replacement Reserve fund shall be established for the future replacement or rehabilitation of the facilities maintained by the District based upon the expected useful life of each facility.

The funds will be set aside annually and shall only be used for the replacement or rehabilitation of the improvements unless the City determines that there is a surplus based upon expected future replacement costs.

To provide for future increases in the costs of maintaining and servicing District facilities, the cost per EDU may be increased up to the maximum rate (which shall be indexed to the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers for the San Francisco Area) shown as required to provided sufficient revenues for the maintenance of the improvements. The City shall have no obligation to commit funds in excess of the assessment revenues collected for the maintenance of the improvements and the level of maintenance provided shall be adjusted to match the funds available.

Per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Western Information Office, the Consumer Price Index for the San Francisco Bay Area during the calendar year of 2023 was 2.6%.

The 1972 Act requires that a special fund be set up for the revenues and expenditures of the District. Funds raised by the assessments shall be used only for the purpose as stated herein.

A contribution to the City of Watsonville, for the Vista Montaña Landscape & Lighting Maintenance District, may be made to reduce assessments, as the City Council deems appropriate. Any balance remaining on July 1 must be carried over to the next fiscal year unless the funds are being accumulated for future capital improvements and operating reserves. The District may accumulate an operating reserve which shall not exceed the estimated costs of maintenance and servicing to December 10 of the fiscal year or whenever the City expects to receive its apportionment of special assessments form the County.

DRAFT

10 PART D

METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENT

GENERAL
Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, permits the establishment of assessment districts by Agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping and street lighting improvements for the purpose of:
• improving the livability, appearance, and economic conditions within the boundaries of the District, and
• ensuring that improvements do not reach a state of deterioration or disrepair so as to cause the depreciation of surrounding property or be materially detrimental to nearby properties and improvements; and
• protecting the health, safety and general welfare of occupants and visitors to properties.

Section 22573 of the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972 requires that maintenance assessments must be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This Section states:
"The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefit to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements."
The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements shall be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7 (commencing with Section 5000) [of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California]."
In addition, Article XIIID, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional special benefit conferred on the property.

Because assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a user's fee, not a tax, and, therefore, are not governed by Article IIIA of the California Constitution.

The 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (Sec. 22547).

Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax." Article XIIID provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment.

Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights DRAFT
-of-ways,

11 public greenbelts and public parkways.

LANDSCAPING BENEFIT DETERMINATION
Trees, landscaping, hardscaping and appurtenant facilities, if well maintained, provide beautification, shade and enhance the desirability of the surroundings, and therefore increase property values. The maintenance of the “park strips” and landscaping in the “street end caps” within Maintenance Zone B will benefit each parcel within the zone.

STREET LIGHTING BENEFIT DETERMINATION
The proper functioning of street lighting is imperative for the welfare and safety of the property owners within the District. Proper operation, maintenance, and servicing of a street lighting system benefits properties by providing increased illumination for ingress and egress, safety traveling at night, improved security, protection of property and the reduction of traffic accidents. All parcels within Zone A of the District benefit from the street lighting installed along Highway 152 and Bridge Street. Parcels within Zone B of the District benefit from the street lighting installed along the streets adjacent to their residential units.

OPEN SPACE and AGRICULTURE BUFFER BENEFIT DETERMINATION The overall quality of life and desirability of an area is enhanced, when open space is maintained in safe, and clean manner. Property desirability in an area also increases where an open space buffer is provided between land uses. In addition, open space and buffer areas provide areas that enable property owners to participate in leisure and other miscellaneous activities. All parcels within the District will benefit from the open space including the landscape improvements along Highway 152, and agriculture buffer areas and those improvements are within Maintenance Zone A.

DRAFT

12 PARCEL CLASSIFICATIONS
Single Residential Family Residential - The single-family residential parcel classification will be per the City of Watsonville land use codes as shown in the records of the County Assessor and will be assessed on a per parcel basis. Each single-family residential parcel will be assigned 1 Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU).

Townhome/Condominium – Townhome/condominium parcels shall be defined as those dwelling units/parcels which share a common wall and which have been assigned an assessor parcel number by the County Assessor. Each townhome/condominium parcels will be assigned

0.8 EDU’s.

Multi-Family Residential - The multi-family residential classifications will be per City of Watsonville land use codes as shown on the records of the County Assessor and will be assessed

0.5 EDU on a per unit basis.

Exempt - Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of all public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, all easements and rights-ofways, all public parks, greenbelts and parkways and all other public property designated open space.

ZONE CLASSIFICATION
The Vista Montaña Landscape and Lighting Maintenance Assessment District was formed to provide a funding source for the operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping and lighting improvements within the boundaries of the District. All parcels within the District benefit from the maintenance and servicing of improvements within Maintenance Zone A. Only those parcels within Maintenance Zone B benefit from the maintenance of the improvements within Zone B. The boundaries for each benefit zone are shown on the Assessment Diagram.

BENEFIT SPREAD METHODOLOGY
The total operation, maintenance and servicing cost for the landscaping, street lighting, and open space improvements are apportioned in accordance with a methodology that is consistent with standard assessment engineering practices.

Since the assessments are levied on the owners of properties as shown on the secured property tax rolls, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number. If assessments were to be spread by parcel, not considering land use, this would not be equitable, because a singlefamily parcel would be paying the same as a 50-unit apartment parcel or a large commercial establishment. Therefore, as previously stated, the total assessment costs are spread to each parcel of land based on the benefit received by each particular parcel.

The Assessment District is comprised of 173 single family residential parcels, 80 townhome residential parcels and 135 multi-family residential units. The annual costs for the operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping and street lighting improvements within maintenance DRAFT

13 Zone A shall be apportioned to each parcel within the District in proportion to the EDU’s assigned to the parcel as a percentage of the total number of EDU’s assigned to all parcels within the District. The costs for the operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping and street lighting improvements within maintenance Zone B (which shall include all single-family residential and townhome/condominium parcels) shall be apportioned to each parcel within the Zone B in proportion to the EDU’s assigned to the parcel as a percentage of the total number of EDU’s assigned to all parcels within Zone B.

The maximum assessment rate per EDU within Zone A and Zone B which may be levied is set at the rates shown below. The maximum assessment rate may be increased annually each fiscal year by an amount which shall not be greater than the increase in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers for the San Francisco Area in any fiscal year for the year ending in December of the preceding year.

Maximum Assessment per EDU Zone A $ 317.16/EDU*
Maximum Assessment per EDU Zone B $ 257.68/EDU*
Total Maximum Assessment per EDU $ 574.84/EDU*
Properties become assessable after they have had their final map approved. Based upon the EDU’s to be assigned to each parcel, the table below summarizes the assessment by land use category based upon the maximum assessment rate per EDU that can be levied after completion of all improvements.

4 PART A

PLANS & SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE WORK
The work to be done consists of:

Annual Maintenance (ongoing)
a) Routine plant care and mowing
b) Alleyway Maintenance
Plans for the annual maintenance activities have not been prepared. The maintenance program for the alleyway, which describes the work to be done, is available in the office of the Director of Parks and Community Services and is included herein by reference.

PART B

LAND ACQUIRED FOR PUBLIC USE
Assessor’s Parcel Number 016-143-26 was donated to the City for public use at no cost to the City or property owners.

The parcel of land dedicated (the Gonzales Street Alleyway) is shown on the Assessment Diagram included as Part G. Reference is made to the maps on file with the Santa Cruz County Assessor for the detailed lines and dimensions of this parcel.

DRAFT

5 PART C

ESTIMATE OF COST

1. Annual Maintenance Costs
a. Plant care, mowing and cleaning
3 hours per month @ $12.00 per hour x 12 months $ 432.00 b. Alleyway maintenance $ 168.00
Total Estimated Annual Maintenance Costs $ 600.00

2. Incidental Expense (by City) 0.00
Estimated Total Annual Cost 2024/2025 FY $ 600.00
PART D

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
There are 18 parcels within the block surrounded by High Street, Gonzales Street, Brennan Street, Freedom Boulevard and Sudden Street. Seventeen of these parcels will benefit from the maintenance and upkeep of the alleyway within this block. The 18th parcel, the alleyway, was dedicated to public use and does not benefit.

The benefits to be derived include but are not limited to additional parking, access to garages, open space uses security, and the improvement of the appearance of the adjacent land along back yard property lines.

In the opinion of the Engineer, each of the 17 parcels within the block will share these benefits equally with the exception of Parcel Number 016-143-10 that does not “tack” along the alleyway. Therefore, 16 parcels were assessed an equal unit of assessment and Parcel 016-143-10 was assessed 0.75 unit due to the lack of backyard “frontage”.

The amount of a unit of assessment for annual maintenance was calculated by dividing the total estimated annual maintenance cost by the total number of units (16.75).

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WATSONVILLE DECLARING ITS OPPOSITION TO INITIATIVE NO. 21-0042A1, THE

TAXPAYER PROTECTION AND GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY ACT
WHEREAS, an association representing California’s wealthiest corporations is spending tens of millions of dollars to promote a deceptive ballot measure currently eligible for the November 2024 statewide ballot; and
WHEREAS, the measure creates constitutional loopholes that allow corporations to pay far less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities, which could force residents and taxpayers to pay more to maintain services; and WHEREAS, the measure threatens billions of dollars every year in local government funding for services like fire and emergency response, law enforcement, affordable housing, services to support homeless residents, mental health services, and more; and
WHEREAS, the measure could impact the City’s Measure R, which is expected to generate over $5.2 million dollars intended to enable Parks, Library, and Streets departments to fund new programming, infrastructure, and street projects within the City; and
WHEREAS, the measure is an attack on voters’ rights, containing undemocratic provisions that would make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures to fund services, provisions that retroactively cancel measures enacted by voters, and provisions that prevent voters from passing advisory measures that provide direction on how they want their local tax dollars spent; and

Reso No. (CM)
Meeting Date: 051424 2
WHEREAS, the measure contains intentionally restrictive language that will encourage hundreds of frivolous lawsuits against cities and local governments – costing taxpayers many millions and stopping investments in vital local services; and WHEREAS, the measure would make it much more difficult for state and local regulators to issue fines and levies on corporations that violate laws intended to protect our environment, public health and safety, and our neighborhoods; and WHEREAS, the measure is opposed by hundreds of local governments, teachers, firefighters, working families and local elected officials.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WATSONVILLE, CALIFORNIA, AS FOLLOWS:

1. The Council opposes Initiative #21-0042A1.

2. The Council will join the “Stop the Taxpayer Deception Act” coalition, a growing coalition of public safety, education, labor, local government, and infrastructure groups throughout the state.

3. The Council directs staff to email a copy of this adopted resolution to the League of California Cities at [email protected]. ********************************

RE: Letter Opposing Initiative 21-0042A1
The City of Watsonville opposes Initiative #21-0042A1, a November 2024 statewide ballot proposition.

The measure is a significant threat to local control and voters’ rights that could jeopardize funding for vital services. In no uncertain terms, the Watsonville City Council on May 14, 2024, adopted a “Resolution of the City Council of the City of Watsonville Declaring its Opposition to Initiative No. 21- 0042A1, the Tax Protection and Government Accountability Act” for reasons listed below.

This measure creates new constitutional loopholes that allow corporations to pay far less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities, which could force residents and taxpayers to pay more to maintain services.

The measure puts billions of dollars currently dedicated to local services at risk, and could force cuts to fire and emergency response, law enforcement, services to support homeless residents, and more.

The measure is also an attack on voters’ rights, containing undemocratic provisions that would make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures to fund local services, provisions that retroactively cancel measures recently passed by voters, and provisions that prevent voters from passing advisory measures that provide direction on how they want their local tax dollars spent.

Furthermore, the measure contains intentionally vague and restrictive language that will encourage hundreds of frivolous lawsuits against cities and local governments — costing taxpayers millions and blocking investments, development, and long-term planning.

Specifically, the measure would threaten the City’s Measure R, the Community Investment Tax Measure. This new funding source is expected to generate over $5.2 million annually. Funding will boost the capacity of the Parks, Library, and Streets departments, enabling them to enhance and receive additional funding for new programming, infrastructure, and street projects within the City.

You may list the City of Watsonville in formal opposition to Initiative #21-0042A1 and include our city as part of the growing coalition of public safety, labor, local government, infrastructure advocates, and other organizations throughout the state opposed to this deceptive proposition.

Sincerely,
Vanessa Quiroz-Carter

Watsonville Parks Assessment Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
March 2024

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Watsonville Parks Assessment Report
(Assessment) is a comprehensive evaluation of
the existing City and County parks within the
Watsonville community’s sphere of influence.

The assessment offers a holistic perspective of
the entire park system by providing a priority
ranking that accounts for individual parks’
conditions, uniquenesses, and hyper-local
communities. The goal of the report is to provide
the City of Watsonville (City) and County of Santa
Cruz (County) staff with a tool to help make datainformed decisions when allocating funding for park improvement and planning efforts.

The assessment establishes a priority ranking
system that takes into consideration three key
factors: condition, community value, and equity.

Assessing the needs of parks based on their
physical condition, in combination with social
factors in relation to the community they serve,
provides a more comprehensive and inclusive
understanding of each park. This assessment
provides a detailed description of the park
priority ranking methodology, estimated costs
for replacing park infrastructure in kind, and an
analysis of the park priority ranking results.

The results of the assessment revealed the
following:
• The 2 highest priority City parks for
renovations, out of 24 assessed City
parks, are River Park and Callaghan Park.
• The 2 highest priority County parks
for renovations, out of 5 assessed
County parks, are Pinto Lake County
Park and Mesa Village County Park.

needs across the City’s recreation
facility buildings, the estimated deferred
maintenance costs with no funding
secured is estimated to be $53,900,000.
• To renovate the park infrastructure
that has a condition rating of 1 or 2
across all 24 assessed City parks, the
estimated cost is $29,000,000.
• To renovate all 5 assessed County parks in
kind, the estimated cost is $39,000,000.
• To renovate the park infrastructure
that has a condition rating of 1 or 2
across all 5 assessed County parks,
the estimated cost is $14,500,000.

Watsonville Parks Assessment Report INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND
In January 2023, the City of Watsonville (City)
partnered with the County of Santa Cruz
(County), to undertake the development of
a comprehensive parks assessment in order
to gain a holistic perspective of the existing
Watsonville park system. The current park system
serves nearly 52,000 City residents as well as
neighboring County residents and the Pajaro
Valley community just south of the City limit. A
total of 29 parks were evaluated as a part of this
assessment, including 24 of the City’s 26 parks,
and 5 County parks that were determined to be
within the Watsonville community’s sphere of
influence. Two of the City parks, Ramsay Park and
City Plaza, were excluded from this assessment
because they are slated for redevelopment in
2024.

The need for the assessment was spurred, in
November 2022, by the passage of Measure R,
the Community Investment Tax Measure, a halfcent sales tax on most goods sold within the City to help fund community investments. Some of
the community investments applicable to parks
includes park repairs, playground expansions,
trail maintenance, and safe spaces for children
to recreate. As funding becomes available for
parks from Measure R and other sources, this
assessment will aid City and County staff in
making informed, data-driven decisions, ensuring
that funding is allocated efficiently and equitably
to enhance the park system and ultimately best
serve the needs of the community.

Watsonville Parks Assessment Report 4

INTRODUCTION

CITY OF WATSONVILLE PARK SYSTEM
24 of the City’s 26 parks were included in this
assessment. For planning purposes, parks are
classified by type based on the size, use, and
physical characteristics of the land. The public
has access to almost 143 acres of existing City
parks, which include the following park types:
• 3 Community Parks
• 6 Neighborhood Parks
• 17 Pocket Parks
Approximately 70 acres, of the 143 acres, are
waterways on the City-owned side of Pinto Lake
Park.

SANTA CRUZ COUNTY PARK SYSTEM
The County’s park system currently includes 41
parks, 5 of which were determined to be within
the Watsonville community and were evaluated
as a part of this assessment. The 5 parks
evaluated for this study have a combined acreage
of 237 acres, and for planning purposes, are
categorized as Regional Parks and Neighborhood
Parks.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this assessment is to provide
a tool that the City, County, and greater
Watsonville community can utilize to develop a
more effective, equitable, and informed approach
for allocating financial resources available to
improve park infrastructure. The assessment
provides a park priority ranking based on each
park’s need for new infrastructure improvements.

This system-wide ranking provides a holistic
understanding of the park system. A datadriven ranking methodology was developed to determine the ranking for each park. Maintaining
objectivity was crucial in establishing the priority
ranking methodology in order to ensure the
integrity of the park ranking results.

The assessment will be utilized by both City and
County staff to help make informed decisions
on future capital improvement projects, and by
Parks Maintenance Staff to identify and keep
a record of park infrastructure that are most
in need of attention. The assessment is also a
resource for City Council and the County Board
of Supervisors to stay informed about the current
FIGURE 2. PICNIC AREA AT PINTO LAKE COUNTY PARK

INTRODUCTION
and future needs of the park system, and for
the community to understand the data behind
the decisions made about funding park projects.

Application of this assessment will help the City
and County move towards an improved park
system that provides enjoyment and added value
to the community.

LIVING DOCUMENT
To ensure the rankings remain accurate, the
assessment results should be updated every
ten years, roughly whenever new census results
are released, to reflect capital improvements
and natural deterioration of park infrastructure,
evolving community demographics and priorities,
and future inflation. This includes re-evaluating
park infrastructure conditions to account
for wear, damage, or development of new
improvements and parks; and updating social
equity data and ranges to reflect current census
data.

LIMITATIONS & EXCLUSIONS
The ranking shown in the assessment reflects
current data on conditions and demographics.

This assessment does not analyze the future
potential of assessed parks. Changes related
to on-going material deterioration, unforeseen
accident/damage events, population changes,
and evolving social equity definitions will impact
the rankings. Costs shown in the assessment
represents an estimate of current and future
costs based on today’s market, however costs are
subject to change as materials, contractors, and
construction methods change with time.

This plan covers a significant portion of the
Watsonville community’s park infrastructure,
though not all infrastructure could be included
due to limitations with funding, staffing, or
requirements for qualified professional expertise
to develop and complete condition assessments,
analysis, and costing for specific elements, such
as:
• Buildings that are not restrooms
or maintenance sheds
• Select restrooms
• Trees
• Trails
• Natural lands

INFORMATION AND DATA

INFORMATION AND DATA
To objectively rank each park in relation to
each other, data was collected for each of the
following factors that were determined to be
critical for the park priority ranking:

1. Condition

2. Community Value

3. Equity

CONDITION
Park infrastructure is defined as a component
within a park that is owned and managed by the
City or County and contributes to a park’s utility
and value. To evaluate the current condition of
each park’s unique infrastructure, three different
tools were developed:

1. Parks Infrastructure List

2. Condition Rating Criteria

3. Database of Park Infrastructure
From a basic bench where seniors rest, to
playground structures for children, and sports
fields used to host programmed events, parks
are composed of a wide range of infrastructure.

To simplify and organize into categories all of
the unique types of park infrastructure, a Parks
Infrastructure List was created (see figure 8).

Watsonville Parks Assessment Report
March 2024

FIGURE 5. COMMUNITY MEMBERS FILLING OUT QUESTIONNAIRES AT WORKSHOP #1 Watsonville Parks Assessment Report 7
March 2024 DRAFT

INFORMATION AND DATA
To consistently assess all of the various park
infrastructure components, a Condition Rating
Criteria was established (see figure 10). At its
core, the criteria identifies the condition rating of
park infrastructure components, where:
1 = Failed
2 = Poor
3 = Fair
4 = Fair
5 = Excellent
Specific criteria were developed to assess each
infrastructure category, such as pavement,
irrigation, and signage.

To document the park infrastructure data
collected in the field, a comprehensive database
was created using Geographic Information
Systems (GIS). The GIS database was used to
inventory existing park infrastructure listed on
the Park Infrastructure List. Types of information
documented include location, quantity, condition
rating based on the Condition Rating Criteria
(see figure 10), photos, and notes for poor/failed
conditions or unique items.

The GIS database can be updated by park staff in
the future to help the City maintain an accurate
overview of park infrastructure across the park
system. The City plans on integrating the GIS data
gathered during this assessment into Cityworks
(the City’s public asset management software) to
further develop the City’s management of park
infrastructure.

FIGURE 6. INFORMATIONAL MAPS AT WORKSHOP
Watsonville Parks Assessment Report 8
March 2024 DRAFT

INFORMATION AND DATA

COMMUNITY VALUE
The community’s priorities for the park system
were another important factor that was
accounted for as a part of this assessment.

A community value rating, from 1 to 5, was
assigned to core park infrastructure components
listed on the Parks Infrastructure list (see figure 8
and figure 9) where:
1 = Highest Value
2 = High Value
3 = Medium Value
4 = Low Value
5 = Lowest Value
The ratings were based on information obtained
through an outreach phase of this assessment as
well as data collected during the development
of the City of Watsonville’s 2020 Park and
Recreation Strategic Plan and the County of
Santa Cruz’s Strategic Plan 5-year update which
included their South County Outreach.

During the outreach phase, a total of 138
questionnaires were collected across three
in-person workshops. These workshops were
scheduled to coincide with other community
events in order to optimize participation.

Workshop #1 was aligned with County Park
Friend’s Family Day, Workshop #2 took place
during the weekly Watsonville Farmer Market,
and Workshop #3 coincided with programmed
youth sports events.

The largest proportion of questionnaire
respondents were between the ages of 22 to
64, live in Watsonville, visit parks multiple times
per week, and strongly agree that the City and
County should prioritize efforts and funding
towards parks. Respondents valued restrooms
and playgrounds the most; horseshoe pits, bocce
ball courts, and pickleball courts were valued the
least.

PARK RANKING METHODOLOGY

PARK RANKING METHODOLOGY
After information and data for the three factors
was gathered (condition, community value,
and equity), a park ranking methodology was
developed to show which parks should be higher
priority for maintenance, planning efforts, and
funding based on the existing parks (not the
future potential of the parks). This chapter
explains the different components of the
park ranking methodology in addition to park
infrastructure category scores that compliment
the park rankings.

On the following pages is an outline of the
various factors that contributed to the park
ranking (see figure 11), as well as a chart that
summarizes what the different scores for each
factor means (see figure 12).

PARK RANKING LISTS
Two different park ranking lists were developed:
one for City parks and a second for County parks.

Each park ranking list ranks all parks belonging
to their respective organization from 1 to the
number of parks that were evaluated, ie. 1 to 24
for the City Park Ranking and from 1 to 5 for the
County Park Ranking, where:
• 1 = highest priority for park improvements
• for the City Park Ranking,
24 = lowest priority for park improvements
• for the County Park Ranking,
5 = lowest priority for park improvements

PARK RANKING METHODOLOGY
FIGURE 11. PARK RANKING BREAKDOWN CHART
A park’s rank was determined by a park’s priority
score. All of the park priority scores are sorted
from lowest to highest. The lower a park’s priority
score, the closer the park’s rank is to 1.

PARK PRIORITY SCORE
A park priority score is a score from 1 to 5,
where:
• 1 = highest priority for park improvements
• 5 = lowest priority for park improvements
A park’s priority score is composed of three
different factors with the following percentages
contributing to the score:
• 50% Park Condition Score
• 10% Park Community Value Score
• 40% Park Equity Score
A park’s condition is the most impactful indicator
for a park’s need for improvements. If the park
infrastructure component is a safety hazard, is
broken, or is unusable, restoring the component
should take priority to ensure the safety of
the public. The other factors are intended to
distinguish priority between parks with similar
condition scores.

PARK RANKING METHODOLOGY
FIGURE 12. SUMMARY OF MEANINGS OF 1 AND 5 FOR EACH SCORE TYPE

PARK CONDITION SCORE
A park’s condition score is the average of all of
the condition ratings of a park’s infrastructure
categories. The scores range from 1 to 5, where:
• 1 = worst condition and highest
priority for park improvements
• 5 = best condition and lowest
priority for park improvements
An infrastructure category’s condition rating is
the average of all of the condition ratings of the
infrastructure components that are categorized
as within the infrastructure category.

PARK COMMUNITY VALUE SCORE
A community value rating has been assigned to
each park infrastructure component based on
public feedback about how valuable each
particular component is to the community.

The park infrastructure component community
ratings were determined using community
input gathered during the outreach phase of
this project as well as data published in the City
of Watsonville Park and Recreation Strategic
Plan, and the County of Santa Cruz’s Strategic
Plan 5-year update which included their South
County Outreach, which comprised of surveys
administered at the Watsonville Mercado on May
30, 2023 and Watsonville Farmers Market on

A park with more components with a community
value rating of 1 is given higher priority. The
park community value score reflects how
much the community values a particular park’s
components. The park community score is a
number from 1 to 5, where:
• 1 = highest number of park
infrastructure components with a
community rating of 1 and the highest
priority for park improvements
• 5 = lowest number of park
infrastructure components with a
community rating of 1 and the lowest

A community value score from 1 to 5 has been
assigned to each of the community value rating
of 1 ranges as shown on the table below (see
figure 14):

Watsonville Parks Assessment Report 17
March 2024 DRAFT

PARK RANKING METHODOLOGY
Each social factor is given a score from 1 to 5 for
each park. The eight different equity social factor
scores contribute to a park’s equity score based
on the percentages in the following list:
• 10% Access Score
• 10% Age Score
• 10% Disability Score
• 10% Environmental Health Score
• 30% Income Score
• 10% Population Density Score
• 10% Racially Disadvantaged Score
• 10% Safety Score
A park’s income score makes up the majority
of its equity score due to income being one of
the most influential determinants of someone’s
overall wellbeing, according to the American
Public Health Association1. In addition, all of the
equity social factor score ranges were established
to strike a balance between achieving an even
distrubution of scores and maintaining a relative
consistency for the range of each score.

ACCESS SCORE
The access factor gives higher priority to parks
with less park acreage within a half-mile radius.

A quarter-mile to half-mile, roughly a 10-minute
walk, is a standard for how far and long most
people are willing to walk to reach a destination
by the U.S. Department of Transportation, Trust
for Public Land, and National Recreation and Park
Association.

A park’s access score is a number from 1 to 5,
where:

The community value score ranges were
established to stike a balance between achieving
an even distrubution of scores and maintaining a
relative consistency for the range of each score.

The following list details the current number of
parks that were assessed, in addition to City Plaza
and Ramsay Park, that fall into each community
value score range:
• 10 Parks, 20 or more
• 4 Parks, 15 to 19
• 5 Parks, 10 to 14
• 4 Parks, 5 to 9
• 6 Parks, 0 to 4

PARK EQUITY SCORE
A park’s equity score takes into account eight
different social factors:

1. Access

2. Age

3. Disability

4. Environmental health

5. Income

6. Population density

7. Racially disadvantaged races

8. Safety
Equity scores are a number from 1 to 5, where:
• 1 = most socially disadvantaged and
highest priority for park improvements
• 5 = least socially disadvantaged and
lowest priority for park improvements

ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SCORE
The environmental health factor gives higher
priority to parks located within a census tract that
has a higher CalEnviroScreen Score, according
to the California Office of Environmental Health
Hazard Assessment’s CalEnviroScreen 4.0. The
CalEnviroScreen Score takes into account the
following pollution burdens (potential exposures
to pollutants and adverse environmental
conditions) and population characteristics
(biological traits, health status, and community
characteristics that can result in increasing
vulnerability to pollution):
• Pollution Burden
Д Air quality ozone
Д Air quality pm2.5
Д Drinking water contaminants
Д Pesticide use
Д Children’s lead risk from housing
Д Toxic releases from facilities
Д Diesel particulate matter
Д Traffic impacts
Д Cleanup sites

FIGURE 17. DISABILITY SCORE RANGES CHART

DISABILITY SCORE
The disability score gives higher priority to parks
located within a census tract that has a higher
percentage of people with disabilities. These
community members generally have more
difficulty traveling to further destinations, thus
parks in close proximity to people with disabilities
are prioritized for improvements. Disabilities that
are accounted for include the following:
• Hearing difficulty
• Vision difficulty
• Cognitive difficulty
• Ambulatory difficulty
• Self-care difficulty
• Independent living difficulty
A park’s disability score is a number from 1 to 5,
where:
• 1 = highest percentage of people
with a disability and highest
priority for park improvements
• 5 = lowest percentage of people
with a disability and lowest priority
for park improvements
A disability score from 1 to 5 has been assigned
to each of the following disability percentage
ranges:

Community members who live in an area with
higher pollution are more likely to suffer from
health issues per the U.S. Department of Health
and Human Services. Parks located in areas with
higher pollution are prioritized for improvements.

A park’s environmental health score is a number
from 1 to 5, where:
• 1 = highest pollution burden and highest
priority for park improvements
• 5 = lowest pollution burden and lowest
priority for park improvements
A park’s environmental health score is the
assigned score of the CalEnviroScreen score
within the census tract GEOID in which the park
resides. An environmental health score from 1
to 5 was assigned to each CalEnviroScreen score
range identified in the following table:

A park’s income score is a number from 1 to 5,
where:
• 1 = lowest income and highest
priority for park improvements
• 5 = highest income and lowest
priority for park improvements
Income scores gives higher priority to parks
located within a census block group that has
a higher percentage of households with lower
incomes. A park’s income score is determined by
the household income census block group data

Income ratings from 1 to 5 have been assigned
to the following household income ranges as
identified in the Income Ratings Ranges Chart
(see figure 19):

POPULATION DENSITY SCORE
The population density factor gives higher
priority to parks located within a census tract that
has a higher population density. Parks located in
neighborhoods with higher population density
are prioritized due to the increased number of
users that they serve.

A park’s population density score is a number
from 1 to 5, where:
• 1 = highest population density and
highest priority for park improvements
• 5 = lowest population density and
lowest priority for park improvements
The population density is calculated by dividing
the total population by the square miles of the
census block group. A population density score
from 1 to 5 has been assigned to each of the
following population density ranges:

Income Category Income Range Income
Rating
Extremely Low $0 to $39,999 1
Very Low $40,000 to $74,999 2
Low $75,000 to $99,999 3
Median $100,000 to $124,999 4
Moderate & Above $125,000 or more 5
FIGURE 19. INCOME RATING RANGES CHART
The income ranges were determined by
referencing the City of Watsonville’s affordable
housing program bracket limits (effective
10/24/2023) for a 4 person household. The City
of Watsonville’s average household size is 3.46.

To further refine the income ranges, the Covered
California Program Eligibility by Federal Poverty
Level for 2024, was referenced to determine the
“Extremely Low” and “Very Low” income ranges.

The “Extremely Low” income range is the income
range for a 4-person household that qualifies for
Medi-Cal and the “Very Low” income range is
the income range for a 4-person household that
qualifies for an enhanced plan under Covered
California.

The following list details the current number of
parks that were assessed, in addition to City Plaza
and Ramsay Park, that have the following income
score ranges:

RACIALLY DISADVANTAGED SCORE
The racially disadvantaged factor gives higher
priority to parks located within a census block
group that has a higher percentage of people
who are of a racial group identified as socially
disadvantaged by the National Archives and
Records Administration, a federal agency in
charge of recording government and historical
documents.

A racially disadvantaged score is a number from 1
to 5, where:
• 1 = highest percentage of racially
disadvantaged individuals and highest
priority for park improvements
• 5 = lowest percentage of racially
disadvantaged individuals and lowest
priority for park improvements
The percentage of racially disadvantaged
individuals living within the census block group
is calculated by dividing the number of racially
disadvantaged individuals by the total population.

A score from 1 to 5 was assigned to each of
the following percentage ranges of racially
disadvantaged individuals:

The following list details the current number
of parks that were assessed, in addition to City
Plaza and Ramsay Park, that fall into each racially
disadvantaged score range:
• 8 Parks, 80% to 100%
• 20 Parks, 60% to under 80%
• 0 Parks, 40% to under 60%
• 3 Parks, 20% to under 40%
• 0 Parks, 0% to under 20%

SAFETY SCORE
The safety factor gives higher priority to parks
with more reported crimes.

A park’s safety score is a number from 1 to 5,
where:
• 1 = highest amount of reported crimes
• 5 = lowest amount of reported crimes
There are two different park safety scores
ranges, one for City parks and another for County
because the number of reported crimes for each
park was provided by the City and County in
two different data sets. The City’s data provides
the number of reported crimes within a 1,000
feet radius of a City park between October
2022 to September 2023. While the County’s
data provides the number of reported crimes
at each County Park between October 2022

PARK INFRASTRUCTURE

CATEGORY SCORE
The park infrastructure category score is
the priority score for each individual park
infrastructure category within a park. It’s
composed of the same factors that make up the
park priority score: condition, community value,
and equity. The park infrastructure category
score does not directly influence park rankings;
instead, it offers a nuanced assessment of the
specific needs of each infrastructure category.

Much like the park priority score, the park
infrastructure category score is determined by
allocating the following percentages from each
contributing factor:
• 50% Condition Score
• 10% Community Value Score
• 40% Equity Score
A park’s infrastructure category’s score is a
number from 1 to 5, where:
• 1 = highest priority for improvements
• 5 = lowest priority for improvements
to September 2023. A score from 1 to 5 was

ESTIMATED COSTS

ESTIMATED COSTS
Estimated replacement costs for each park were
calculated as part of this assessment. It was
estimated that renovating all 24 assessed City
parks in-kind would cost $78,000,000. To replace
park infrastructure throughout the City’s park
system with a condition of 1 or 2, the estimated
cost is $29,000,000. Renovating all 5 assessed
County parks in kind would cost an estimated
$39,000,000, while replacing park infrastructure
for those with a condition rating of 1 or 2 would
cost approximately $14,500,000.

City Plaza and Ramsay Park are excluded from
this study due to renovation plans, currently in
the design phase, with construction anticipated
to begin in 2024. The estimated construction
and soft costs for Ramsay park amount to
$33,300,000 and $6,300,000 for City Plaza.

Furthermore, the City prepared a Building
Facility Assessment in 2022 as part of a separate
project, which identified $24,900,000 in deferred
maintenance needs across the City’s recreation
facility buildings.

These costs combined with the estimated
expenses to replace City park infrastructure with
a condition rating of 1 or 2 from this study, place
the City’s total deferred maintenance needs for
parks and recreation facilities at $93,500,000.

While funding for City Plaza and Ramsay Park
has been secured, there remains a $53,900,000
deficit in funding to address deferred
maintenance needs.

Watsonville Parks Assessment Report 33

ESTIMATED COSTS

ESTIMATED COSTS FOR EACH PARK
The City Parks Estimated Costs (see figure 34)
and County Parks Estimated Costs (see figure 35)
includes the amount needed to fully replace all
of the existing infrastructure at each park, as well
as the cost to replace only existing infrastructure
with a condition rating of 1 (failing, safety hazard)
or condition rating of 2 (poor).

COST ESTIMATION PROCESS
The table of estimated infrastructure unit costs
(see figure 36 to figure 41) includes individual
cost, estimated construction costs, and estimated
project total costs. Estimated construction cost
accounts for start-up, mobilization, demolition,
erosion control, grading, and contingencies.

Project total cost accounts for construction
costs and soft costs, which include design,
engineering, surveying, testing and inspection,
and city administration. The unit costs were
used to calculate the estimated costs for each
park, including the cost to replace only existing
infrastructure with a condition rating of 1 or 2.

The following items were excluded from the cost
estimate table:
• Buildings that are not restrooms
or maintenance sheds
• Select restrooms
• Trees
• Trails
• Natural lands

MAINTENANCE VERSUS RENOVATION
This assessment provides three types of
estimated costs:
• Unit cost for replacement for a
single park infrastructure item
• Cost to replace a park infrastructure
category at each park
• Cost to renovate an entire park in kind
The above costs assume the work for
replacement is being completed by a contractor
and not in-house by park staff.

The decision regarding whether to completely
renovate a park or to focus on replacing specific
park infrastructure will be based on the available
funding and the priorities set by the respective
agencies for each individual park.

Watsonville Parks Assessment Report IMPLEMENTATION RECOMMENDATIONS March 2024

IMPLEMENTATION

RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the assessment the following steps
are recommended in order of highest priority to
lowest priority:
• Address all park infrastructure
components with a condition
rating of 1 as soon as possible.
• Address all park infrastructure
components with a condition rating of
2 when funding becomes available.
• Begin preparing funding for all
park infrastructure components
with a condition rating of 3 in
anticipation of the eventual
deterioration of those components
to a condition rating of 2 and 1.
• Update the Park Infrastructure database
on an ongoing basis to keep a current
log of park infrastructure conditions as
infrastructure is improved and target a
comprehensive update every 10 years to
ensure multi-year CIP and maintenance
fund allocations are reflective of the latest
conditions. See next section for summary
for how to update parks assessment data.
• Develop and implement a
planned maintenance program
for infrastructure to extend the
life of existing infrastructure.

RECOMMENDATIONS 7

Watsonville Parks Assessment Report 43
March 2024 DRAFT

IMPLEMENTATION RECOMMENDATIONS

UPDATING PARKS ASSESSMENT DATA
When it’s time to update the park assessment
data, the following is a summary outlining the
process for obtaining key data figures. These
figures can be utilized to update an existing park
summary sheet, create a new park summary
sheet for a newly established park, update park
rankings, or reassess the entire park system.

1. Determine a Park’s Condition Score
Д Record the condition of all park
infrastructure components
within the parks GIS database
using the Condition Rating
Criteria (see figure 10).

Д Calculate the condition score for each
park infrastructure category by taking
the average of all park infrastructure
components within each park
infrastructure category. Reference
the Park Infrastructure List (see
figure 8 and figure 9) for which park
infrastructure components belong in
which park infrastructure categories.

Д Calculate the average of all
park infrastructure category
condition scores to determine
the park’s condition score.

2. Determine a Park’s
Community Value Score
Д Identify the quantity of park
infrastructure components with a
community value rating of 1. Using
the Community Value Score Ranges
Chart (see figure 14), determine
the park’s community value score
based on the identified quantity.

3. Determine a Park’s Equity Score
Д Calculate the access score for
the park by taking the sum of the
acreage of the selected park and
all parks within a half mile of the
selected park. Using the Access
Score Ranges Chart (figure 15),
determine the park’s access score
based on the total acreage.

Д Calculate the age score by identifying
the quantity of people under 18
years old and 65 years old or over,
and the total number of people that
live within the census block group
that the park resides in. Calculate
the percentage of people within
the census block group that are
under 18 years old and 65 years old
or over and determine the park’s
age score using the Age Score
Ranges Chart (see figure 16).

Д Calculate the disability score by
identifying the number of people
with a disability and the total
number of people that live within
the census tract that the park
resides in. Calculate the percentage
of people with a disability and
determine the park’s disability
score using the Disability Score
Ranges Chart (see figure 17).

Д Determine the environmental
health score by identifying the
CalEnviroScreen Score for the census
tract GEOID that the park resides in.

Determine the park’s environmental
health score using the Environmental
Health Ranges Chart (figure 18)
based on the CalEnviroScreen Score.

Watsonville Parks Assessment Report 44
March 2024 DRAFT

IMPLEMENTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Д Calculate the income score by
identifying the number of households
that fall into each of the five
income ranges as shown in the
Income Rating Ranges Chart (see
figure 19) and the total number of
households within the census block
group that the park resides in. The
park’s income score is the average
income rating of all households
within the census block group.

Д Calculate the population density
score by identifying the total square
miles and the total number of people
that live within the census tract
that the park resides in. Calculate
the number of residents per
square mile and use the Population
Density Score Ranges Chart to
determine the park’s population
density score (see figure 20).

Д Calculate the racially disadvantaged
score by identifying the number of
people that are considered racially
disadvantaged, and the total number
of people that live within the census
block group that the park resides in.

Calculate the percentage of racially
disadvantaged people and determine
the park’s racially disadvantaged score
using the Racially Disadvantaged
Ranges Chart (see figure 21).

Д Calculate the safety score by first
determining whether the park is a
City or County park. Next, identify
the number of reported crimes
per the parameters set by the
respective agency’s crime data set,
as described in the Safety Score
section of chapter 4. Determine the
park’s safety score using the agency’s
respective Safety Scores Ranges
Chart (see figure 22 and figure 23).

Д Calculate the equity score by
taking the weighted average
of all eight social factors. To
determine the weight of each
social factor, reference the Park
Equity Score section in chapter 4.

4. Determine the Priority Score
Д Calculate the priority score by taking
the weighted average of the condition
score, community value score, and
equity score. To determine the
weight of each factor, reference the
Park Priority section in chapter 4.

After completing the steps above for a new or
existing park summary sheet, arrange the park
priority scores in ascending order, from smallest
to largest. This sequence results in the updated
park priority ranking.

When conducting a complete parks assessment
update, it may be necessary to reassess and
update, as needed, the community value
and equity score ranges. This process aims to
maintain a balanced distribution of scores to
produce an effective priority score.
