SU B.ECT : Approval of Conceptual Plan for Jordan Ranch Neighborhood Square
Prepared by: Rosemary Alex, Parks and Facilities Development Coordinator
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider approval of the conceptual plan for Jordan Ranch Neighborhood
Square.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Receive the presentation and approve the Jordan Ranch Neighborhood Square conceptual plan -
"The Forest" (CIP No. PK0322).
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
As approved in the 2022-2027 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), the total budget for Jordan
Ranch Neighborhood Square, CIP No. PK0322, is $2,798,947 and the available budget for
construction is $1,911,749. The concept plan is estimated to cost $1.9 million. There are sufficient
funds available for this project.
DESCRIPTION:
The Jordan Ranch Neighborhood Square, CIP Project No. PK0322, (Attachment 1) was approved in
the 2020-2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) with funding for design beginning in Fiscal
Year 2021-22. The park is located on Central Parkway, surrounded by Pino Grande Road, Twain
Harte Road, and Pandora Way. In April 2022, Staff engaged SWA Group, a firm from the City's
approved list of on -call landscape architectural consultants, to assist with this project. Staff and
the consultant team started a community input and conceptual design process, which is described
below.

Community Input Process
Currently underway, the community input process has spanned several months between May and
December 2022. The process includes input from the community, the development of three
conceptual plans, recommendations from the Parks and Community Services Commission, and
concept plan review and approval by the City Council.
Listening Phase
In late -May 2022, Staff established a project webpage on the City's website and provided direct
mail communications to the immediate neighborhood surrounding the park to receive community
input. The communications included a survey link and an invitation to participate in an online
community meeting. As a result of the public outreach, the City received over 200 responses to the
survey, and two residents participated in the June online meeting. The survey results are in
Attachment 2.
Interpretation Phase
After the Listening Phase, the consultant team analyzed the feedback received from the online
meeting and survey and developed three concept plans for the park. A second public meeting was
held on August 13, 2022, at the future park site, with more than 100 community members in
attendance. The three concept plans were presented at the public meeting. Participants provided
verbal and written feedback regarding their preferences for the park. Out of 108 respondents, 'The
Forest" park concept plan received 74 votes as the first preference, and the balance of 34 was
distributed between the other two concepts.
Refinement Phase
During the August 13, 2022, public meeting, additional input led to refinements to "The Forest"
park concept plan. Key changes included the addition of a slide hill in the play area, fitness
stations, bar-b-ques, and pollinator plantings, as shown in Attachment 3.
"The Forest" park concept plan includes the following amenities:
• One multi -use court that allows for basketball and futsal
• Picnic tables and shade elements adjacent to multi -use court
• Reservable picnic area with shade elements and BBQ
• Fitness stations
• Playgrounds for ages 2 to 5 years and 5 to 12 years
• Grass area for free play
• Interior pathways for circulation and exercise
At the October 17, 2022 Parks and Community Services Commission meeting, the Commission
recommended that the "The Forest" park concept plan be approved without any further
modifications.

66 Dear City of Dublin Admin, as Jordan Ranch resident, we are really happy and appreciate your 6/1/2022 4:35 PM
efforts to make this living environment beautiful, safe and healthy. For this designed area, I
would like to request to build a swimming pool. In dublin, summer is really hot, the weather
goes up to 98 or 100 degrees. We really need to build more swim area for kids and adult to
hangout. In this area, we don't have any swimming pool. We don't need playground as we near
so many parks, city of sports, Jordan ranch park..., we have a nice neighborhood to walk
around and jogging. We need swimming pool more than anything else. Thank you for your
consideration
