Foss, City Manager SUBJECT: Sports Field Use Policy Update Prepared by: Andrew Freeman, Business Services Manager EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The City Council will review and consider the adoption of the Sports Field Use Policy update and Memorandums of Understanding with Dublin Little League and Dublin United Soccer League as recommended by the Parks and Community Services Commission. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Sports Field Use Policy update and the Memorandums of Understanding with Dublin Little League and Dublin United Soccer League. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Financial impact will be minimal to negligible. Changes will be trac ked for the initial cycle to review service and operational impacts. DESCRIPTION: On April 19, 2016, Staff presented an informational item to the City Council regarding the City’s Sports Field Use Policy and updates that Staff would like to make to align the Policy with the needs of today’s use. In particular, Staff recommended that the City change/simplify the number of user groups, increase the reservation lead time, and change the notification period for cancellations. The City Council agreed with th e Staff recommendations and directed Staff to meet and work with local user groups on the changes before bringing proposed revisions to the Parks and Community Services Commission and the City Council. Subsequent to that meeting, Staff held various meetin gs and discussions with user groups to receive input on the changes. The input, along with Staff’s recommended actions, was presented to the Parks and Community Services Commission on November 14, 2016. Page 2 of 5 Following is a summary of the proposed changes to the Policy: Changes to User Group Classifications To simplify access to City sport fields, Staff is recommending changes to user group requirements. These changes will clarify reservation access and enhance user convenience during the registration process. The table below represents the current and proposed user groups and field access requirements. Current User Group Classifications Proposed User Group Classifications Group 1 - Public Agencies-Agencies serving the City of Dublin including Alameda County, Dublin-San Ramon Services District, Dublin Unified School District. Group 2 - Dublin Sports League Organizations-Organized sports league groups: Youth Sport League Organization at least 75% Dublin Residents. Adult Sports League Organization at least 51% Dublin Residents. Group 3 - Dublin Chamber of Commerce, Dublin Charitable and Social Welfare Organization-Organized non-profit groups with current 501(c) 3 or 501 (c) 4 IRS status, whose membership is open to the public and whose primary purpose is to serve the Dublin community. The organization’s membership must be at least 51% Dublin residents. An organizational file must be completed on an annual basis to receive the priority and fees of this classification. Regional and National non-profit groups that do not meet the 51% resident membership requirement may submit a letter addressed to the Parks & Community Services Department that demonstrates the direct community benefit of the facility use. Such letter will require the approval of the City Manager or their designee. Group 4 - Individuals of Other Groups- Groups who do not meet the criteria listed above and/or activities such as games or practices, etc. a) Resident (individuals must reside or own property within Dublin Public Agencies-Agencies serving the City of Dublin including Alameda County, Dublin-San Ramon Services District, Dublin Unified School District etc. Dublin Sports League Organizations - Organized sports league groups: Youth Sport League Organization at least 75% Dublin Residents.

Group 5 - Commercial Uses-Companies, groups or individuals whose practices, clinics, camps or games have an admission fee or include the sales of goods or services, including those contracted by any field lessees, regardless of classification; a) Resident (organization or individual must be located within the Dublin City Limits and have current City of Dublin Business License. If there is no company facility, person responsible for event must reside or own property within the Dublin City Limits). b) Non-Resident. User Group Reservation Priority Applying the proposed group categories and requirements is expected to streamline the rental review process without creating additional risk to the City or diminish field demand. The time-savings generated by this change will allow users more planning and implementation event time. The opportunity for more planning and implementation event time is represented in the table below. Current Priority User Group Reservation Proposed Priority User Group Reservation Group 1 and 2 - Reservations accepted up to six months in advance of requested dates of use. For use from March 1-July 15, Dublin Little League will have priority use of the baseball fields at Dublin Sports Grounds, Emerald Glen Park and Fallon Sports Park. For use from July 16- December 15, Dublin United Soccer League will have priority for use of the soccer field at Dublin Sports Grounds, Emerald Glen Park and Fallon Sports Park. Group 3 and Group 4 (Resident) - Reservations accepted four months in advance of requested dates of use. Group 4 (Non-Resident) and Group 5 - Reservations accepted two months in advance of requested dates of use. Dublin Sports League Organizations- Youth Sports 75% Residents - Reservations accepted in advance of all other user groups. Resident - Reservations accepted up to twelve (12) months in advance of requested dates of use. Non-Profit Organizations - Reservations accepted up to eleven (11) months in advance of requested dates of use. Non-Resident - Reservations accepted ten (10) months in advance of requested dates of use. Commercial - Reservations accepted up to nine (9) months in advance of requested dates of use. Page 4 of 5 Under the proposed user group all users will gain at least four additional months to reserve field space. Staff also is recommending changes to the policy prohibit field users from subletting time to other groups, and the removal of casual use. Casual use, like all other fiel d use, requires insurance coverage. Applying this requirement, this type of users will need to submit a field application under one of the six available user categories to access fields. The Sports Field Use Application and Sports Fields Use Procedures will be updated by Staff to match market conditions and manage field use related to insurance requirements, rental information, cancellations and payment schedules to maintain operational effectiveness. This flexibility will support the City’s competiti veness to maintain field access and keep fields usable. Policy and fee changes will require City Council review and approval. Staff will continue to use the current approved rates to charge users for field time until rate changes have been approved by C ity Council. The issue of cancellations communicated in the April 19, 2016 Staff Report is addressed in the proposed Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with Dublin Little League and Dublin United Soccer League shared in the next section. These two groups have a profound impact on field availability. By changing the reservation cancellation requirement with these two groups to 90 days , additional capacity is expected to be gained to support field access for other users . Changes to the Policy and the introduction of the MOUs were part of the November 14, 2016 Parks and Community Services Commission meeting. The Parks and Communit y Services Commission agreed with Staff’s proposed changes and the addition of the MOUs and is recommending them to the City Council. Memorandums of Understanding: Dublin Little League and Dublin United Soccer League In FY 2015-2016, sports field usage exceeded 16,100 hours. Over 85 percent of this field usage was generated by two users promoting youth sports. Currently, bo th user groups are accessing City fields under Group 2 Dublin Sports League Organizations (Youth) category. To sustain this level of youth access to City fields, Staff is recommending that the City enter into a Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with Dublin Little League and Dublin United Soccer League. With an approved MOU, the City and each Dublin Sports League Organizations will have an agreement on scheduled reservation periods, field maintenance expectations, concession stand practices, insurance requirements, tournament allowance per year, and safety for minors. The scheduled reservation periods in the MOUs will open more opportunities for other user groups to schedule field use. This opportunity is the result of requiring these specific groups to reserve space earlier and more accurately. Furthermore, adjustments to field reservations, including cancellations, have been set at 90 days, in order to free up field inventory than previously required. The increased reservation and cancellation lead time creates Page 5 of 5 additional capacity for City fields to be booked by emerging youth groups and other users. These two groups will continue to be subject to adopted City field rates, rules, regulations and other pertinent City policies governing field use. The MOUs will help establish the baseline of collaboration in supporting youth services at City fields. Establishing future MOUs with additional youth sport organizations will be measured by youth participation, sustained service demand, meeting field u sage requirements, on- time payment history, local based operations (e.g., oversight of business and management within City limits) and other field service impacts such as concessions and maintenance. Both youth groups have agreed to the MOU terms. NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH: A copy of the Staff Report has been provided to Dublin Little League and Dublin United Soccer Leagues.
