Cisneros, Director, Parks and Recreation Agenda Caption: Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding City Facility Landscape and Streetscape Guidelines, as requested by Council at the August 28, 2008 meeting. Recommendation(s): Staff requests that the City Council provide input and policy direction on the use of City Facility Landscape and Streetscape Guidelines as a framework for new and redevelopment of city facility landscapes and streetscapes. Summary: The City of College Station has a large investment in landscapes and streetscapes related to city and state transportation projects. These projects should require a process whereby the amount and type of landscape and streetscape improvements related to the specific project can be determined and decided upon before the project is initiated and not after construction has occurred. With that point in mind, staff has been working on the development of City Facility Landscape and Streetscape Guidelines to better define the city’s role and private property owners’ role in enhancing landscape and streetscape development within and along the city’s major arterials. These guidelines were reviewed by the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board at their January 13, 2009 Board meeting. The Board voted unanimously to recommend that the City Council consider the implementation of these guidelines for the development and redevelopment of city facility landscapes and streetscapes. Budget & Financial Summary: The impact to the Capital Improvement Projects Budget and the General Fund operating budget is dependent upon Council direction with respect to the proposed guidelines. Implementation of the City Facility Landscape and Streetscape Guidelines will have a corresponding effect on funding needed for additional right of way acquisition, landscape and streetscape design and construction as well as the operations and maintenance budget amounts required to maintain these improvements.

Public Hearing, presentation, possible action and discussion concerning a proposed Priority of Usage Policy for parks and recreation programs and facilities: Gary Erwin, Chair, opened the public hearing portion of the meeting for feedback on this item. Tom Edrington, College Station Soccer Club: “Proposing a higher fee for Bryan residents will not decrease use on the fields - at least by the adult teams. We need to figure out a way to decrease adult use on the fields because of the impact it has on the fields.” Shaun O’Donovan, Brazos Valley Football Club: “Where will competitive soccer rank in the priority of use? Our organization does not turn anyone away so, in my mind, they are ranked as a Tier 1 group because if someone does not fit into one of the groups, then they are placed into another group in the organization.” “Adult soccer uses minimal time on the fields currently, and I just want to give the Board the bigger picture on how things are. We are trying to develop a partnership with the City of College Station and help in any way that we can to 12 3 January 13, 2009 Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Minutes maintain and police the fields. The issue is trying to keep those who should not be on the fields, off of the fields. My main concerns are first, “Where will competitive soccer rank? Number two, “If competitive soccer does not rank, where would it rank?” Billy Hart asked Tom Edrington and Shaun O’Donovan: “Would you see a problem of increasing prices to the users, if the return was a better product for them?” Tom Edrington, College Station Soccer Club: “No, I do not see a problem, if we see a better product in return. There are a lot of children in the program and raising it slightly will benefit us all.” Shaun O’Donovan, Brazos Valley Football Club, “In competitive soccer, it will not make a difference if the price is raised slightly. Also communication is one of the biggest concerns for their groups, so that they can explain to their groups prior rather than waiting to the last minute on field closures.” Discussion followed. Billy Hart made a motion to move adult cricket, adult soccer and adult Frisbee to the Tier 2 level and to move facilitated concerts and facilitated tournaments to the Tier 3 level. Glenn Schroeder seconded the motion. The vote was called. All were in favor and the motion passed unanimously. Jody Ford made a motion to link sanctioned tournaments to their specific category in the ranking system and for city and CSISD tournaments to remain in the core category. Wayne Williams seconded the motion. The vote was called. All were in favor and the motion passed unanimously. 10. Public Hearing, presentation, possible action and discussion concerning a proposed Resident vs. Non-resident Parks and Recreation Programs and Facilities Policy: Shaun O’Donovan, Brazos Valley Football Club: “We need to be able to provide opportunity for those kids to recreate even if they are from Bryan and charging them an additional fee. That should be the main concern of the department.” Tom Edrington, College Station Soccer Club – “Raising the fees will probably not discourage the adults (residents and/or non-residents) from play.” 13 4 January 13, 2009 Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Minutes Discussion followed. David Scott made a motion supporting the price differential for Resident vs. Non-Resident, and Shawn Rhodes seconded the motion. The vote was called. All were in favor and the motion passed unanimously. 11. Presentation, possible action and discussion concerning proposed Landscape/Streetscape Guidelines: Marco A. Cisneros gave a presentation regarding this item to the Board. Discussion followed. This was an informational item only and no action was required. 12.
