School Facility Improvement Priorities Report by Diane Lowart, Recreation Director RECO1~fEI~iDATIOAT ~•~~" ': FIIdAATCIAL STATEI~EI~T : Agreement Between City of Dublin and Dublin Unified School District Regarding Use of Facilities Approve Revised Priorities None DESCR~PTIOPi : At the September 25, 1989 meeting of the Dublin City Council, the Council adopted Resolution 110-89, which approved and authorized an agreement between the City of Dublin and the Dublin Unified 5chool District regarding use of facilities (copy attached). Exhibit B to the agreement was a prioritized list of proposed improvaments to school property to be undertaken by the City as funds became available. To date, work has been undertaken on the Dublin High School Football Field/Track Renovation, the Dublin High School Girls Athletic Fields, the Dublin High School Baseball Fields and the Frederiksen School Kindergarten Tot Lot. As part of the 1991-92 update to the Five Year Capital Improvement Program, Staff is recommending that the City Council re-evaluate the priorities of the school projects. This recommendation is a result of increased requests from individual schools and special interest groups that certain projects be moved up in the priority Iist. Consequently the Parks and Recreation Cnmmission held a public meeting and invited school principals, parent faculty clubs, booster clubs and youth athletic leagues to attend to provide input on the priorities af the projects. As a result of this meeting, the Commission developed the following priority list for the school facility improvements. 1. DHS Athletic Fields Renovation 2. Nielsen School Playground 3. Cronin School/Park Playground 4. 90' Baseball Diamond (location to be discussed with District) 5. Nielsen School Athletic Field Renovation 6. DHS Tennis Caurts Renovation 7. DHS Outdoor Lighting 8. Murray School Athletic Field Renovation 9. Frederiksen School Athletic Field Renovation 10. Wells/Cronin Schools Athletic Field Renovation 11. Dublin School Athletic Field and Playground Renovation Although the Commission ranked the Dublin High School Athletic Fields Renovation as the number one priority, they recognize that this project cannot be compTeted under the current drought conditions. In the event that the drought continues, the Commission recammends that the City move forward on projects that require little or no landscapinq. The drought list is as follows: 1. Nielsen School Playground 2. Cronin School/Park Playground 3. 90' Baseball Field (clay infield, dirt outfield) 4. DHS Tennis Courts Renovation 5. DHS Outdoor Lighting Project ITE~TT IdO: ~ COPIES TO: Dublin Unifiec~ School District P rks & Recreation Commission <~~ ~84 -.~4 ~ ! ~ With regards to the school improvement projects, the City's ability to complete the projects will depend on a numb~r of factors; the availability of funds, the avaiiability of water, and the availability of school facilities while school is in session. For example, the Dublin High School Athletic Fields Renovation can only be undertaken between mid-May and August in order to avoid school athletic programs. This timeframe, though, disrupts the Dublin Little League schedule. The Nielsen playground project, on the other hand, could be done during the school year, however the school children would not have access to play equipment during construction, approximately three months. Consequently Staff needs to closely coordinate these projects with each affected school, which in some cases, can delay a project. The revised priority list was forwarded to the Dublin Unified School District for their review and approval, and at the May 1, 1991 meeting of the Board of Trustees, the list was approved unanimously. Therefore it is recommended that the City Council approve the revised priority Iist for school facility improvements. Staff will then incorporate the projects into the Capital Improvement Program based nn these priorities taking into consideration the funds available, the drought,conditions, and the timing needed to accommodate the School District. .- --, ~- •4- W¢ • • . ~ ~ AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY OF DUBLIN AND -~ E~ DUBLIN UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT .
