The comprehensive plan is a reflection of the community's values and serves as a blueprint for Southlake's future. More specifically, the comprehensive plan establishes a framework to coordinate the city's activities and to guide the city's decision -making for the next 20 years. As such, the comprehensive plan and its components are updated on a regular basis. The last Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan was adopted in September 2005. The city's park system has undergone significant growth and improvements since that time, so it is necessary to address those changes with an update to the plan as a part of the Southlake 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan is the primary tool that will guide decision -making when addressing physical or programming use changes to the City's parks, recreation facilities, open spaces and community facilities. Recommendations developed in the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan will also be incorporated into other plan elements, such as the Mobility Master Plan and Sustainability Master Plan, as appropriate. In addition, the plan will be utilized in setting priorities in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) planning process, updating current park development priorities and creating new park priorities or programs as needed. The Director of Community Services conducted a presentation on the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan during the SPIN meeting. This recorded video presentation can be found on the City's website at http://southlaketx.swagit.com/play/01312013-584.

Re: City of Southlake Parks, Recreation, & Open Space/ Community Facilities Master Plan To whom it may concern: There are several factors I wish to bring to your attention regarding this plan as it has been drafted. On page 6, a quote included from the 2005 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan states: "This plan also included a new component that would focus on promoting environmental sustainability and open space preservation within the park system." Page 7 under Location, Character & Resources, the proposed draft states: "Southlake can also be characterized by its abundant natural resources in the Lake Grapevine vicinity... The City of Southlake made a very strong commitment to both natural resource protection and preservation of natural open space. The City of Southlake is also firmly committed to protecting environmental assets...." Page 19 under Natural Area/Open Space, the proposed draft reads: "These areas are natural and are generally left undisturbed, but are not necessarily characterized as land preservations. No organized, active recreational uses are usually accommodated in these areas, they are primarily intended for passive recreational use." Page 88, Objective 4.13 of the approved Southlake 2030 Vision, Goals and Objectives states: Pursue recreational and educational opportunities on Corps of Engineers property compatible with the goal of protecting and preserving the existing ecosystem for future generations. Page 90 Objectives 7.7, 7.8, and 7.9 of the approved Southlake 2030 Vision, Goals and Objectives read: "Objective 7.7 Recognize the importance of and protect the biological diversity for the ecological and aesthetic benefits to the community." "Objective 7.8 Define, protect, and celebrate the local cross timbers Ecosystem as a community asset for future generations." "Objective 7.9 Assess and minimize the ecological impact of any new trails provided on Corps of Engineers property." Given that a number of plans over the years have reinforced a dimension that included working to identify, protect, and advance the natural history and the local ecosystem as a community asset, one would expect that some specificity as to the carrying out of those goals and objectives would be included in the new master plan. As I read the proposed draft, there is little if anything to address what has already been filed into regulation. Either it may have been considered insignificant or not worthy of consideration. I am not going to address the ramifications of not considering previous commitments. I assume that the new goals and objectives in the proposed draft represent the intentions of the Community Services Department and the Planning & Development Services Department. However, there are two items that must be brought to your attention that are critical considerations due to the commitments made in previous master plans and statements of visions and goals. 1. Ecologically sensitive areas: For well over a decade, there has been a need to identify those critically sensitive areas that provide the base sustainability for the local ecosystem. At this point, most of the areas are in the northern sector including Bob Jones Park, Bob Jones Nature Center and Preserve, and the juxtaposition of Corps of Engineers property leased by the City of Southlake. To my knowledge studies involving this important issue have never been done, nor has it been included in or utilized in the preparation of the current plan. By not going through this process, the continued destruction and fragmentation of the local ecosystem will be a given. It is a travesty that little will be protected that will insure the ecosystem's quality for future generations. 2. On page 30, recommendation 20 states: "Partner with Carroll Independent School District (CISD) to locate jogging/cross-country trails throughout the Bob Jones Nature Center and Preserve and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers properties." This part of the recommendation to put jogging/cross-country trails in the Nature Center, or any nature center for that matter, borders on the absurd. There are several facts that need to be considered. Putting jogging/cross-country trails "throughout" the center is environmental fragmentation, the number one cause of ecosystem destruction in America. One only has to look at Meadowmere Park in Grapevine to measure the impact over time. First, the park was used for jogging by the CISD cross-country team. Next, approximately 8 foot wide trails were cut through the park totally ignoring the ecologically sensitive areas. Then, the trails became a place to hold meets. The following picture shows the impact: Crass Country Meet Meadowrnere Park 9-11-2010 There is ample trail space in the current Bob Jones Park and Corps of Engineers property --assuming that a sensitive ecological study has been done. The Bob Jones Nature Center and preserve should be protected for what it is, a nature center and preserve. I would hope the draft would be changed to reflect this critically necessary change prior to approval of the current draft. Any community that truly wants to protect its natural ecological resources will reflect that intention in its plans, particularly a parks/open space plan. An ethos is represented in every decision made. The proposed plan is an opportunity to reflect that ethos. I hope as decision -makers, you will embody that ethos in whatever plan you finally approve.

Residents use the park and recreational services extensively for active and passive leisure pursuits. As Southlake grows, these parks and recreation programs will continue to play a vital role in the lives of our residents and visitors by providing areas for: ■ Active recreational pursuits ■ Passive enjoyment ■ Enhanced quality of life ■ Enhanced community image ■ Increased tourism Southlake's proximity to Grapevine Lake and abundance of mature trees provides a visual backdrop that greatly adds to the overall aesthetic value of the City. Open spaces provide habitat and protection for threatened and endangered species, unique natural and cultural resources and critical habitat linkages. These open spaces also enable natural outdoor experiences for residents in close proximity to where they live. Rustin Park Parks contribute to this network of open spaces and enhance the quality of life for Southlake residents in numerous ways. Green spaces, healthy trees and plant life soften the impact of development and add visual enhancements to the City. Park facilities enable residents to be active and engaged in many recreation activities and outdoor pursuits, from senior citizen fitness classes to youth soccer. Recreation programs provide a focus for youth activities and community facilities such as the Senior Activity Center and the recently opened North Park. These locations serve as focal points for senior citizens and neighborhood activities, reinforcing cohesiveness in the community and attracting neighborhood and City events. -- Parks can also reflect how a community regards itself and they can be objects of community pride. Distinctive signature parks such as Bicentennial Park, Bob Jones Nature Center & Preserve, North Park and Bob Jones Park give Southlake character and a sense of place in the region. Parks can also define neighborhoods throughout the City and serve as buffer zones between new development and residential enclaves and natural preserves. Parks, trails and open space areas add value to the community. For example, parks and especially open space preserves can add to the assessed value of adjacent and nearby properties by making Stars &Stripes these areas more desirable places to live. Visitation and tourism to City events such as Stars & Stripes, Art in the Square and Oktoberfest encourage people to visit and stay in Southlake. These visitors generate revenue by filling hotel rooms, dining out and participating in other activities that support the local Southlake economy. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 2 Caring for and preserving these resources, as well as adapting to the changing recreation needs of the community, is an essential component of Southlake's future health and sustainability. As the City changes and develops, the community looks to maintain a balance between the developed environment and natural environment where Southlake residents can relax and recreate. The recommendations, objectives and policies in the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities component of the Southlake 2030 comprehensive plan will focus on the enhancement and appropriate use of Southlake's parks, recreational & community facilities and programs to meet the changing needs of Southlake's population. PURPOSE AND RELATIONSHIP TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan is a W component of the Southlake 2030 Plan, the city's comprehensive plan. The comprehensive plan is a reflection of the community's values and serves as a blueprint for Southlake's future. More specifically, the comprehensive plan establishes a framework to coordinate the city's activities and to guide the city's decision -making for the next 20 years. As such, the comprehensive plan and its components are updated on a regular basis. The last Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan was adopted in September 2005. The city's park system has undergone significant growth O and improvements since that time, so it is necessary to address those changes with an update to the plan as a part of the Southlake 2030 V)2030 Comprehensive Plan. The Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan is the primary tool that will guide decision -making when addressing physical or programming use changes to the City's parks, recreation facilities, open spaces and community facilities. Recommendations developed in the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan will also be incorporated into other plan elements, such as the Mobility Master Plan and Sustainability Master Plan, as appropriate. In addition, the plan will be utilized in setting priorities in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) planning process, updating current park development priorities and creating new park priorities or programs as needed. During initial staff discussions about the Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan and meetings with the Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan Committee it was determined that the significance of a community recreation center within an existing park was great enough and a critical component of Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan that a Community Facilities Master Plan component should be developed concurrently with the plan and as a result the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan was created. RELATIONSHIP TO SOUTHLAKE'S STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Strategic planning is an ongoing process where resources, critical concerns, community priorities and citizen needs are combined to produce both a plan for the future and a measure for results. More specifically, Southlake's Strategic Management System links the city's day-to-day activities to a comprehensive long-term strategy for public policy and management decisions. The Strategic Management System identifies Strategic Focus Areas and Objectives to guide effective and efficient resource allocation and provides benchmarks to assess performance. The Strategic Focus Areas and Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year[SOUTHLAKE 2030] • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 3 Objectives are driven by the City's Citizen Survey and are outlined in the City's Strategy Map (please see Exhibit 1 on the next page). The Strategic Management System guided the development of the Southlake 2030 Plan Vision, Goals and Objectives Wffl -_ (VGO), which define a desired direction for growth in the System City. As such, all recommendations in the Southlake 2030 - Focus Areas Plan are tied to at least one Strategic Focus Area from the IMAM& Strategic Management System and at least one Objective w frnm +ha nnrl nh;or+h,ar. These < _J BE recommendations guide the development of the Capital j®� Improvements Program (a five-year plan for the purchase, fl2030 construction or replacement of the City's physical assets) as well as departmental business plans. In turn, the Capital - - Improvements Program and departmental business plans dictate the city's day-to-day activities and ensure the city is working to achieve the community's goals. . Further, the Southloke 2030 Comprehensive Plon assists the S: - City Council and Boards and Commissions in decision- ' making by establishing a blueprint for the city's future. For + example, the Parks & Recreation Board, Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council use the Parks, Recreation & eiko Wr Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plon to evaluate Results requests related to parks, recreation, open space and community facilities to determine the community's needs kk and goals. Using the Plan as a guide helps to secure the community's vision for parks and community facilities.

The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan has undergone some significant iterations in the past decade or more, and like any good plan, it has evolved and become more relevant with each examination. In the History section below is a brief outline of the significant plan adoptions and updates of the Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan. This is a long range (20-year) planning document that is frequently updated to reflect changing needs and priorities. The Community Services Department will make periodic reviews and make minor revisions as needed. The Southlake 2025 Plan was the city's first comprehensive master plan that integrated all the City's master plans together. As a part of that comprehensive plan the Parks, Recreation and Open Master Plan was an element of that plan that since then has contributed to many improvements to the City's park system. This master plan laid a foundation to the improvements done to the City's parks and even eventually led to the creation of master plans for Bicentennial Park and the Bob Jones Nature Center & Preserve. As the City's needs have changed due to population and demographic changes the City's park system will need to change as well. The Southlake 2030 Comprehensive Master Plan will address those changes and more specifically the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan will address the changes to the park system. HISTORY S 0 U T H LAKE 2025 {4 Planning TUOAY for a 9R11tr T*marrow The 1992 Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan was the City's first attempt to look at park and recreation resources in a comprehensive manner. At that time, the city's population was around 8,000, and the city owned 14 acres of park land, all in Bicentennial Park. The City's build -out population was projected to be more than 48,000, one-third more than the current projection. The recommended park acreage was six to ten acres per 1,000 residents, which would have yielded 289 to 483 acres at build -out. Schrickel, Rollins and Associates, Inc. of Arlington prepared the plan. The 1996 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan updated land and facility inventory, planning and design criteria, plan recommendations and implementation sections of the original plan. The focus of the update was "on the preservation, development or enhancement of attributes important to reflect the native condition of the North Texas landscape that attracted residents to the community." By this time, Bicentennial Park had been expanded to forty-one acres and two neighborhood parks, Koalaty (5 acres) and Lonesome Dove (8 acres), had been acquired. Purchase of 131 acres of land for Bob Jones Park was contemplated. A park and recreation citizen's survey was designed and administered by Glass & Associates. The park and open space standard was raised to 21 acres per 1,000 residents, almost double the regional standard. The update was prepared by the City of Southlake staff. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 6 The 2001 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan update reflected the most comprehensive analysis of the Southlake park system and its potential for orderly development to date. The most important result to emerge from this study was 100% compliance with Texas Parks & Wildlife Department (TPWD) standards for parks master plans, which assured the maximum points available in that category would be available on any TPWD-sponsored grant submittals. All subsequent plans will conform to TPWD guidelines at a minimum in the future. This plan saw increases in the number of parks, park acreages, park inventories, comprehensive mapping, individual park conceptual planning, and prioritization of projects. The 2005 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan was adopted and prepared as a part of this comprehensive _3 master plan and also met the guidelines for park and recreation system master plans set forth by the TPWD. TPWD provides a variety of matching grant programs, and approved plans enhance an applicant's chances of qualifying for matching grants for the implementation of projects. This plan also included a new component that w would focus on promoting environmental sustainability and open space preservation within the park system. The Environmental Resource Protection component of the plan addressed areas of concern such as floodplains, wetlands, streams, trees, topography and view sheds, water quality, Bob Jones Preserve Area Trail rural character, air quality and solid waste. This component also led to the creation of the Environmental Resource Protection (ERP) Map. The Southlake 2030 Comprehensive Master Plan will now update the current 2005 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan. One of the most significant additions to this plan was the inclusion of the Community Facilities element. As mentioned in the introduction, it was determined that the significance of a community recreation center within an existing park was great enough and a critical component of the Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan that a Community Facilities Master Plan component should be included, and as a result the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan was created. In addition, the Environmental Resource Protection component, which was included in the 2005 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan, has been removed from this plan and will be integrated into a more thorough plan, the Sustainability Master Plan. In terms of the Community Facilities portion of this master plan, the architectural firm of Brinkley Sargent Architects was selected to formulate the projected future space needs for all city departments. The firm was also charged with the evaluation of existing city facilities and their potential adaptive reuse. The report produced by Brinkley Sargent, The Comprehensive Facilities Master Plan, is the final product of an in-depth study into the present and future needs of the various departments of The City of Southlake. Planning horizons for this study were the years 2016 and 2026 with respective population projections of 33,500 and 36,000. The components of this report, adopted in 2008, will be integrated into this Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan and will constitute the Community Facilities section of this plan. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 7 LOCATION, CHARACTER & RESOURCES Southlake is located in North Central Texas, situated 23 miles northeast of Fort Worth and 25 miles northwest of Dallas. Dallas - Fort Worth International Airport is only a few short miles to the southeast, and Lake Grapevine borders the city to the north. State Highway 114 runs diagonally through the middle of the city, heading east through Las Colinas and into downtown Dallas and west toward the Alliance Airport corridor. The topography is comprised of mostly gently rolling, heavily treed hills and woodland areas, and the area in the north part of the city around the lake is comprised of some of the most prime native Cross Timbers habitat in the region. A ridgeline running just south of S.H. 114 divides the main watersheds of the city south toward Bear Creek and north to Kirkwood Branch of Denton Creek. Southlake can also be characterized by its abundant natural resources in the Lake Grapevine vicinity and within walking distance of many neighborhoods. The City has made a very strong commitment to both natural resource protection and preservation of natural open space. The City of Southlake is also firmly committed to protecting environmental assets in potential private development areas with both existing and proposed ordinances that require developers to design with nature in mind. The enforcement of the city's Tree Preservation Ordinance, widely recognized statewide as a model ordinance, has resulted in creative development practices and the protection of existing resources. As such, Southlake has been awarded the "Tree City USA" designation for fifteen consecutive years by the National Arbor Day Foundation (NADF). NADF awards the designation only to cities who have demonstrated exceptional local regulations and instructional community outreach and volunteer opportunities in the name of protecting trees and the environment. More recently, the city was awarded with the Gold Certification of the Scenic City • Certification Program. The Scenic City Certification Program is a project of Scenic City Scenic Texas. Scenic Texas has identified a direct correlation between the CERTIFICATION PROGRA%I success of a city's economic development efforts and the visual appearance of its public spaces. In recognition of this link, Scenic Texas has developed the Scenic City Certification Program to support and recognize municipalities, such as Southlake, that implement high -quality scenic standards for public roadways and public spaces. The program recognizes Texas cities which already have strong scenic standards and will provide an incentive to others to adopt and implement the kind of stringent criteria that has been proven to enhance economic development, improve quality of life and foster a sense of place. DEMOGRAPHICS Southlake experienced rapid population growth between 1990 and 2000 with a 205 percent increase in population during that period, among the highest in Texas. With economic recession and less land available for residential development, this trend slowed significantly between 2000 and 2010. As a result, the city has developed more slowly in recent years and with less intensity than previously estimated. The ultimate build - out population, estimated at 34,188, could be reached as late as 2050. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • SOUTHLAKE 2030 : •. ..

Between 2000 and 2010, the City saw a decrease in the population of children under 10, 25-34 and 35-44 year olds, and an increase in youth 15-19, 45-54 and 55- 64 year olds. Both the youth and the adult populations in Southlake are generally older than they were a decade ago. This informs park planners that, while families are still the primary audience for park facilities, improved amenities for teenaged youth and adult recreation may be needed. Looking toward the next 10 to 20 years, it is also possible that the number of adults over 65 may increase significantly, depending on patterns of migration. Likewise, as new residential development slows, the number and percentage of young children in the city may continue to decline. Facilities serving the interests of senior adults and passive recreational activities such as wildlife observation, walking, hiking, and biking may become more popular. Southlake is also slowly becoming more racially diverse, while the income distribution remains the same. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year[SOUTHLAKE 2030] • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 12 This page is intentionally left blank Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 13 PARKS, RECREATION & OPEN SPACE This Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan is evidence of the City of Southlake's long-standing commitment to provide area residents with high quality park facilities and recreation programs. The City's commitment has resulted in an outstanding system of much loved parks and well -attended programs that serve to enrich the lives of the community. The focus of this section of the master plan is to provide direction through the year 2030, ensuring that City parks and programs continue to meet the changing needs of the community. The City's parks, recreation programs and open spaces contribute significantly to the quality of life in Southlake. With its high -quality park facilities, hiking and riding trails adjacent to Grapevine Lake, and comprehensive recreational programs, Southlake offers 1 many leisure activities and healthy lifestyle choices for residents and visitors. Parks and community -serving facilities enhance the quality of life for residents and are an important component of complete and sustainable neighborhoods. Accessible parks provide a place to play, exercise, spend time with friends and neighbors, or to just relax and recuperate. Trails serve an important recreational function while also creating opportunities for connections throughout the community. These Johnson Place Park Trail walking, hiking, running, biking, and equestrian trails connect neighborhoods, parks, schools, places of employment, and activity centers, and create mobility opportunities for residents of all ages. Recreational programs provide opportunities for residents of all ages to participate in recreational, educational, and sports - related classes and activities. Public health benefits accrue in neighborhoods that have access to parks, community facilities, and trails. Access to recreational amenities leads to improved levels of physical activity that have associated physical and mental health benefits on a community -wide basis. Such access also increases opportunities for interaction among all members of the community, which can lead to stronger community ties and an improved sense of connectedness. GOALS & OBJECTIVES The goals and objectives within this plan are intended to guide all public and private decision making for the development of the city's parks, recreation, and open space system. The Vision, Goals & Objectives of the Southlake 2030 Comprehensive Master Plan define the values of the community and set both the framework and the tone for the rest of the plan elements including the Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan. The vision, goals and objectives were developed by the Southlake 2030 Plan Vision, Goals and Objectives Committee, using the Southlake 2025 Plan Vision, Goals and Objectives as a foundation. Goals and objectives were added and modified to reflect changes in the community over the last four years and to address new plan elements that are included in the scope of the Southlake 2030 Plan. The Goals & Objectives for Parks, Recreation & Open Space served as the basis behind the recommendations developed for this plan and are as follows: Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 14 Goal4: Parks, Recreation and Open Space Support a comprehensive integrated parks, recreation and open space system for all ages that creates value and preserves natural assets of the City. Objective 4.1 Ensure that new development incorporates usable open space. Objective 4.2 Ensure that parkland and open spaces include an integrated mix of developed and natural areas with consideration of protecting the City's ecosystem and wildlife corridors. Objective 4.3 Promote water conservation and reuse in the design of parks and open spaces. Objective 4.4 Utilize partnerships to create open space and recreation facilities. Objective 4.5 Ensure an even geographic distribution of park facilities and recreation activities —both active and passive —for citizens of all ages. Objective 4.6 Provide a full range of park facilities and linear linkages that will accommodate the current and future needs of the City's residents and visitors. Objective 4.7 Integrate passive recreational opportunities into preserved natural and drainage areas. Objective 4.8 Incorporate feedback received from the Parks and Recreation Citizen Survey into recreation activities and park facilities. Objective 4.9 Explore opportunities to promote the City's historical landmarks within the park system. Objective 4.10 Determine parkland desirable for dedication as part of the development process based on classification, location and maintenance cost. Objective 4.11 Prioritize investments in existing and established parks understanding that there will be strategic opportunities for land acquisition. Objective 4.12 Incorporate educational and learning opportunities within parks and related facilities. Objective 4.13 Pursue recreational and educational opportunities on Corps of Engineers property compatible with the goal of protecting and preserving the existing ecosystem for future generations. In addition to the goal and objectives noted above, the recommendations of this plan also help implement other goals and objectives of the Vision, Goals & Objectives of the Southlake 2030. A complete version of the Vision, Goals & Objectives component of the comprehensive master plan can be found in Appendix A of this plan. MASTER PLAN DEVELOPMENT PROCESS AND PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT The Southlake 2030 Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan Committee, which included the Parks & Recreation Board as well as City Council members, oversaw the development of the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan. Altogether, the committee held 20 public meetings between September 2011 and March 2013 to discuss, review, and develop park and community facility recommendations for the 19 park areas and community facilities evaluated in Southlake (see Appendix C. Southlake 2030: Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan Process Timeline). Included in these 20 meetings were several design charrettes that were utilized in developing the concept plans and recommendations for the parks within the City. All of these meetings were open to the public and advertised on the city's website. In addition, the committee extended invitations to members of the Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 15 community affiliated with special interests in specific leisure, recreational and sports acitivities. Once the plan was complete, the committee forwarded the plan to the Parks & Recreation Board for consideration and recommendation. r CREATION OF PARK RECOMMENDATIONS A Southlake Program for the Involvement of Neighborhoods (SPIN) meeting was also held to solicit public input. The SPIN forum fosters open and timely communication between the citizens and city government regarding programs and issues affecting the quality of life in the community in order to provide positive relations and a stronger sense of community. A public hearing was held by both the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council before final approval. In summary, the approval process for Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan was as follows: 1. Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan Committee meetings 2. SPIN meeting 3. Final Committee recommendation 4. Parks & Recreation Board recommendation 5. Planning & Zoning Commission recommendation 6. City Council 1st reading 7. City Council 2nd reading (final plan approval) In addition, both the Planning & Zoning Commission and the City Council held public hearings for the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan prior to adoption by Ordinance No. 1060 in February and March 2013. Enhancing Southlake's existing park and recreation facilities, as well as creating new recreational opportunities, will be carried out through the City's park recommendations. The recommendations for Parks, Recreation & Open Space are listed in a later section of this plan. The City will continue to maintain its existing recreation programs and facilities, as well as making those resources accessible to all Southlake residents. Access to park facilities and connections between open space resources through pedestrian, bicycle and equestrian trails are important to enhancing Southlake's recreational experiences. These recommendations are based on the analysis of existing facilities and programs compared to the various service objectives and standards defined by the City's Strategic Management System and the adopted Southlake 2030: Vision, Goals Objectives, as well as input received from the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan Committee, City staff and Southlake residents. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 16 The recommendations address some key areas of interest in improving the City's parks consisting of the following main topic areas: • Improvements to Existing Parks • Connectivity • Open Space/Trails • Aesthetics • Field Functionality PRIORITIZATION After finishing the drafting of the parks recommendations, it was necessary to formulate a way to prioritize the recommendations of the parks. The committee conducted a forced ranking exercise in which each park was "packaged" together and ranked based on the level of importance as voted on by the committee. The results of the force ranking activity are listed under Exhibit 3 along with the packaged recommendations that they were grouped in. The recommendations that were not in the "package" by park were excluded from this exercise due to no capital costs being associated with the recommendations. These recommendations could be prioritized at the staff level and placed on city department business plans.

While several substantial athletic facilities and aesthetic improvements remain, the city is on schedule (compared to population size) and meeting the current needs with its previous and current implementation of the master plan. Those demands that remain, along with several desired non-traditional venues and the ever -conscious Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 17 need to obtain and/or preserve natural areas, make for some difficult decision making when placed in priority order and weighed against available funding. The next section provides the strategy that was undertaken to determine which recommendations and needs would be addressed earlier rather than later and is the blueprint for plan implementation with the recommendations listing provided under the Park Plans and Standards for Development section. For each specific recommendation, a relative priority (Tier) has been established to assist with the priority of implementation of the recommendation. During the development of this master plan the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan Committee conducted a forced ranking activity which determined the priority of the particular park and its recommended improvements. The results of this activity allowed City staff to assign the recommendations based on priority Tiers. The Tiers are divided into three different Tier categories based on timeframe to implement: • Tier 1: 1 to 3 Years • Tier 2: 4 to 7 Years Chesapeake Park • Tier 3: 8 Years and beyond The CIP planning process begins and ends with projects recommended by this master plan. Annually, as part of the City's budget process, city staff analyzes the adopted master plan and develops a comprehensive list of projects and corresponding details along with preliminary cost estimates for each project to be included in the proposed CIP. The proposed CIP is submitted to the CIP Technical Committee (department directors), who rank them based on set criteria. The Parks & Recreation Board and the Southlake Parks Development Corporation (SPDC) will review the proposed CIP and make a recommendation to the City Council who will approve the CIP as part of the annual budget adoption. The priority list that was developed during this master plan will help guide future members of the City's boards and City Council when making decisions related to the CIP. While these tiers have provided the order of implementation and priority of which the park recommendations were considered, it should be noted that all recommendations are subject to available funding during the given budget year and will be placed on the Capital Improvements Program (CIP). PARK CLASSIFICATIONS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS In order to provide the parks, recreation, and open space facilities needed by the City's residents, a set of standards and criteria should be followed. In the Southlake 2025 Comprehensive Plan, parks were categorized and classified based on park design concepts and standards identified by the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA - http://www.nrpa.org/). After further evaluating the demographics and specific needs of the City and its residents it became evident that many parks exceeded or did not fit within these standard categories. So for the purposes of addressing classification and functions of parks within the City, this master plan will categorize parks on how they function specifically within Southlake. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 18 For this Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan, the following park categories are being used: • NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS • COMMUNITY PARKS • NATURAL AREAS and / or OPEN SPACE Neighborhood Parks The neighborhood park is to be one of the most important features of a park system because of its ability to define the character of neighborhoods through its design. Its primary function is the provision of recreational space for the neighborhood that surrounds it. When it is possible to combine an elementary school with this type of park, the two features further enhance the identity of the neighborhood by providing a central location for recreation and education, and by providing a significant open space feature within the neighborhood. A neighborhood park would be preferably located near the center of the neighborhood, but also around the periphery of the neighborhood or as a buffer between major roadways and the neighborhood is also preferable. Safe and convenient pedestrian access (sidewalks or hike -and -bike trails) is important to a neighborhood park location. Facilities normally provided at a neighborhood park may consist of the following: i Noble Oaks Park Community Parks • Playground structures • Open space for both active & passive uses • Pavilion with picnic tables • Park amenities such as drinking fountains, benches, signage, grills, trash cans, trees and landscaping • Hike/bike trails Neighborhood parks are typically designed to serve a small population area. The most critical aspect of acquiring, sizing, locating, and constructing neighborhood parks is that the park is easily accessible from the surrounding neighborhoods. Therefore, trail linkages and family - friendly amenities take priority. A community park is a large and much more versatile type of park developed to serve the community. These parks can be oriented to provide both active and passive recreational facilities for all ages. A community park can serve several neighborhood areas and can typically be conveniently accessed by automobile. These parks are diverse in nature and may include many different amenities including but not limited to the following: • Athletic complexes/field space for baseball, football, lacrosse, soccer, and softball games and practices (lighted and non -lighted) • Areas for community events • Pavilions/community gathering spaces with picnic tables • Park restroom facilities • Sports courts (such as tennis & basketball) • Playground structures • Internal park road system & parking • Open space for both active & passive uses • Hike/bike trails • Nature trails and interpretative areas Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 19 • Ponds and water features • Viewpoints or overlooks Bicentennial Park Natural Area/Open Space • Park amenities such as drinking fountains, benches, signage, grills, trash cans, trees and landscaping North Park -01 These areas are natural and are generally left undisturbed, but are not necessarily characterized as land preservations. No organized, active recreational uses are usually accommodated in these areas; they are primarily intended for passive recreational use. The US Army Corps of Engineers lease area will be considered natural areas for the purpose of the Southlake 2030 plan update.

School facilities are built and maintained with local tax dollars principally for the use of students and they are utilized extensively for the schools' extracurricular activities and maintenance during non -school hours. However, at times when the buildings or fields are not occupied for school -purposes, the community has been able to enjoy the use of these public facilities. Likewise, park amenities are public investments which can be shared by local schools to make more efficient use of public funds and reduce the need to build redundant facilities. The City of Southlake should continue to consider future joint use partnerships with neighboring communities such as Keller, Grapevine, Colleyville, Westlake, or Trophy Club, as appropriate to meet community needs. When pursuing joint use opportunities it is important to discuss all considerations including, but not limited to the following: Maintenance: How can we ensure that joint use facilities are respected and maintained? Who is responsible for maintenance, repairs and long-term capital improvements? Operations: Who will unlock the gate? Who will run the programs? Who has priority? Liability: What if someone gets hurt? Does the property have sufficient liability insurance to cover any issues associated with joint use? Ownership: How does joint use affect how decisions are made about the property? Are partners involved in decisions made relative to the improvement, change, or sale of a joint use property? How can the partnership be mutually beneficial? Cost/Revenue: What costs might be associated with the joint use partnership? How much should each partner contribute? How will revenues be split? NEEDS ASSESSMENT According to the 2011 Citizens Survey, over 90% of those surveyed considered that providing sidewalks, trails and a variety of parks was either very important or somewhat important. With this is mind, during the development 2011 of this master plan the views and recreation preferences of Southlake CITY OF SOUTHLAKE residents played an important role in developing the direction of the plan and the amenities needed within the parks and recreation system of the City. An CITIZEN SURVEY effort was made during the review of the parks of the City to ensure there is RESULTS connectivity between and within the park system in addition to connections to adjacent neighborhoods and schools. The parks and recreational facilities the City has to offer its residents should generally be in accordance with the current needs of Southlake, as well as with the anticipated or expected needs and demands that may arise in the future. Anticipated needs can be forecasted based on standards and development guidelines that are related to the population to be served and the trends in demand. With the City being at a point in time where the population increase is not expected to increase substantially, it is critical Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month D- [SOUTHLAKE 2030] • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 22 that the City take into considerations the demands of the population. Expectation of needs is usually determined through the analysis of material and data furnished by persons actively engaged in some type of recreational activity, as such was the case in the development of this master plan. The following section below describes the approach taken into accounting for and assessing the needs of the City. Demand Based Needs The demand based needs approach used to assist in assessing the future needs relies on information and data from user group sources, or other sources familiar with the desires for specific — types of facilities. The method generally used to attain input for this phase of the needs assessment is to consider requests from specific user groups separated by respective activities, surveys ». and public meetings. These sources, in addition to the input and recommendations from the master plan committee formed then basis for which the needs were determined for the City. It is Enclave Park (Carillon) important to note that the demands of the community may change over time. For example, during the evaluation of the current conditions and inventory of the City's parks, the use of playing fields was taken into account on how they can be managed as multi -purpose in order to accommodate the changing needs and demands in the future. In summary, the following three points must be strongly emphasized, as a result from discussions and evaluation of the information provided during the committee meetings: 1. The City has acquired an adequate amount of park land as the City has developed and only needs small parks or special purpose type parks, such as the Town Square Parks or Carillon Parks, in less -serviced areas as they develop or re -develop. 2. The greatest needs in the City's park system are aesthetic improvements, build -out of existing parks as recommended in this master plan and connectivity to off -site locations. 3. While the city has an adequate amount of park land, further development of these parks is necessary in order for them to be used to their maximum potential whether that be for active, passive or natural uses. Conclusions from the Needs Assessment The overall Parks Inventory Evaluation (Needs Assessment) for the Southlake park system is shown under Exhibit 5. As far as park acquisition is concerned, the city currently owns or leases adequate total acreage for a build -out scenario.

Anyone interested about future park development along with the Parks & Recreation Board, Southlake Parks Development Corporation, Planning & Zoning Commission, City Council and City Staff will rely directly on these plans for guidance. This makes the concept plans a critical part of the plan document and necessary of careful consideration when evaluating park improvements. It should be noted however that these plans are guidelines, and are subject to changing conditions and evolution. The actual development of the park may differ from the concept plans. Rustin & Family Parks (Town Square) In addition to the individual park concept plans, recommendations have also been drafted to reflect the considerations of the Parks, Recreation & Open Space/Community Facilities Master Plan Committee. The recommendations are intended to be more descriptive and provide supplemental information of the intent of the individual park concept plans of the City's parks and should be considered when looking at the graphic illustrations of the concept plans developed by the committee.

The design objectives for monument signs are as follows: ➢ versatile ■ Multiple configurations ■ Various stone or brick options to match park appearance or theme ➢ Timeless & classic design to symbolize a Southlake park ➢ Standardization of design to eliminate recurring design & engineering costs ➢ Maximum visibility of park name with lighting Sample of Existing City Park Monument Signs The configurations of the signs should also retain some level of consistency throughout the City. The following are some examples of configurations and should be used as guidelines only. Actual configuration may have to vary depending on physical constraints on individual park sites. Two pillars and two wing walls Two pillars and one center wing wall LMTwo pillars at entry Stand alone of various sizes: ,Pillar can have park name or emblem on 1 to 4 sides. .wall sign can beone-sided or FIL two-sided ed Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • r r • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 82 Park Amenities The City has informally adopted some level of standards when doing amenity improvements to the City's parks. With this master plan, the City will have formalized guidelines as to what level of quality the amenities should contain.

This particular component of the comprehensive plan is developed to address optimum and efficient responses of City services brought on by growth. The City of Southlake recognizes the need for proactive, futuristic planning to ensure the level of services will be maintained as it grows in population. The Community Facilities Master Plan is an essential part of the City's effort to keep pace with this growth and maintain a high level of service delivery. It is intended to establish a process for coordinated development and use of city facilities. The Community Facilities Master Plan provides a guide for both long-term and near -term needs and demands of the community. Brief History of Southlake One of the City's first establishments was the Lonesome Dove Baptist Church that was organized in 1846 and built on land donated by church members, although it burned in 1863. In 1866, the first land within present day Southlake was homesteaded. It was located on what is now Dove Road and consisted of 360 acres. Settlers from Dade County, Georgia founded White's Chapel Church, located at Southlake Boulevard and White Chapel Boulevard, in 1871. The first superintendent of schools was appointed in 1872, making Lonesome Dove one of the first public schools in Tarrant County, which was organized in 1849. Three local schools that included Lonesome Dove, White's Chapel, and Sam's Schoolhouse, consolidated to form the Carroll School _ District in 1919. This district was named after Tarrant County Superintendent B.H. Carroll. The first school building in the District was built in 1919, and is located Li- on North Carroll Avenue next to Carroll Intermediate-i School. By 1890, Old Union boasted a school, a lodge, _ two churches, and a lop-up-n-hitch. The community's name came from the Old Union Primitive Baptist Southlake Town Hall Church that met in the school building room from 1903 to 1910. In 1957, students adopted the Carroll Dragons as their school mascot. Old Union Community existed in the late 1800s and early 1900s in the present day location of State Highway 26 and Brumlow Avenue. Jellico Community was located at the present day intersection of Southlake Boulevard and Davis Boulevard. Robert Emmett Wilson, who came to the area during the 1880s and built a general store, founded Jellico. Jellico's post office was established in 1898. Jellico, Tennessee was the prior home of many of its residents. The declining commercial importance of Jellico beginning in 1907 led to the eventual end of the entire town. The town of Southlake incorporated on September 25, 1956 and consisted of 1.62 square miles of land. It officially became the city of Southlake on December 7, 1965. On April 4, 1987, Southlake citizens adopted a home -rule charter creating the current council-manager form of government. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 86 Southlake Today The City of Southlake now consists of approximately 22 square miles of land and has just over 27,000 residents. Throughout this time the City has grown and become a premier community in the Dallas -Fort Worth metropolitan area. The City's dedication to quality development, sound fiscal policies and effective strategic management has made it an exemplary community. These attributes have led to the development of several high quality facilities within the City such as Town Hall, Department of Public Safety (DPS) Headquarters and more recently, the DPS North facility currently under construction. In order to continue this level of quality and development it is important to have a plan in place in order to guide the City and meet the needs and demands of its residents. GOALS & OBJECTIVES The goals and objectives within this master plan are intended to guide the City as it pertains to the City's Community Facilities. The Vision, Goals & Objectives of the Southlake 2030 Comprehensive Master Plan developed and defined the values of the community and set both the framework and the tone for the rest of the plan elements including the Community Facilities Master Plan. The vision, goals and objectives were developed by the Southlake 2030 Plan Vision, Goals and Objectives Committee, using the Southlake 2025 Plan Vision, Goals and Objectives as a foundation. Goals and objectives were added and modified to reflect changes in the community since the last comprehensive plan update and to address new plan elements that are included in the scope of the Southlake 2030 Plan. The Goals & Objectives for Community Facilities serve as the basis behind the recommendations developed for this componenet of the plan and are as follows: Goal 8: Community Facilities Plan and provide quality community facilities and services that effectively meet the service needs of Southlake's residents and businesses. Objective 8.1 Provide a level of community facilities that meet the needs of both the existing and projected population. Objective 8.2 Encourage cooperation with the school districts in planning for and financing community facilities to encourage the cost-effective provision of resources. Objective 8.3 Systematically evaluate City -owned buildings in terms of their quality of service delivery and prioritize maintenance and renovation accordingly. Objective 8.4 Incorporate new computer and telecommunications technologies into public buildings and designated areas in order to improve time and cost efficiency of service delivery and to meet increasing demands of information access and sharing. The full version of the Vision, Goals & Objectives component of the comprehensive master plan can be found in Appendix A of this plan. This Community Facilties Master Plan is also taking into account the objectives from the Facilities Master Plan report that was done by the consultants Brinkley Sargent Architects. This report outlined the following goals during its process: • Analyze Departments and Determine Space • Two Planning Horizons (2016 and 2026) Needs Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month D- [SOUTHLAKE 2030] • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 87 • Determine Condition and Constraints of • Determine Budget Options Existing Facilities • Create Facility Phasing Timeline • Identify Facility Utilization Options • Create a Living Document • Establish Priorities MASTER PLAN DEVELOPMENT PROCESS AND PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT The development of this component of the master plan is based on data gathered within the facilities master plan report conducted by Brinkley Sargent Architects in 2008 and by City staff from each department. This information includes current and - _ - future population, staffing, staff ratios, organizational if charts, and department and public parking �� n requirements. After reviewing the preliminary data, on -site meetings were held with representatives from each of the departments studied. Interactive on- screen projections were used to do live updates _ during most meetings. Each participant was encouraged to think about the long-term goals and needs of their departments. These numbers (future population, staffing, staff ratios, organizational Department of Public Safety Headquarters charts, and department and public parking requirements) were then compared to cities of similar demographic composition. Adjustments were made as required and reviewed with key departmental staff members. From these discussions and comparisons, a report identifying staff and square footage requirements for each department were developed for the years 2016 and 2026 based on population estimates. Since population estimates can differ from sources a variety of sources were used to obtain the best estimate for the purposes of that plan.

Those issues were addressed in that report with the following strategies: Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 88 Location of Current Facilities and Existing Land The City's facilities are spread across the city, with Town Hall located near the center of town, the Service Center (Public Works Operations) in the extreme south and Public Safety facilities located for appropriate service coverage on the east (DPS Headquarters) and west (DPS West) sides of town and soon to be on the north (DPS North) side. Philosophies of Citizen Services The City of Southlake places a high premium on service to its citizens, visitors, and business community. Because of this, the strategy was one of planning "user friendly facilities" that will meet the needs of staff and visitors. Specific results of this philosophy included renovating Town Hall to bring Development Services together on one floor, expanding the Service Center to accommodate multiple department needs, combining key quality of life facilities on one site to benefit a wide range of ages and interests in the community, and renovating existing facilities to maximize their utilization for the City. With this master plan however, further analysis was considered by the committee and it was determined that the expansion of the Service Center may not be a feasible solution, thus providing further study on this issue as a recommendation. Maintaining Efficient Work Environments This factor addressed the requirements to consider how the movement of departments from one area to another can be done with minimal disruption to city services. Some refer to this as "the domino effect". In developing the report, the consultants applied this principle to every strategy to ensure minimal effect to departments. This did, in some cases, influence the timing of events over the priorities that had already been developed. Process and Public Involvement As mentioned in the Parks, Recreation & Open Space portion of this master plan, a significant result from evaualting the City's parks was the need for a community multi-puprose recreation center during the review of Bicentennial Park. This lead into the integration of both master plans into one and therefore the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan Committee oversaw the development of both master plans. Once the plan was complete, the committee forwarded the plan to Parks & Recreation Board for consideration and recommendation. A Southlake Program for the Involvement of Neighborhoods (SPIN) meeting was also held for the plan to solicit public input. The SPIN forum fosters open and timely communication between the citizens and city government regarding programs and issues affecting the quality of life in the community in order to provide positive relations and a stronger sense of community. A public hearing was held by both the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council before final approval. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 89 In summary, the approval process for Parks, Recreation & Open Space/Community Facilities Master Plan was as follows: 1. Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan Committee meetings 2. SPIN meeting 3. Parks & Recreation Board public hearing 4. Planning & Zoning Commission public hearing 5. City Council 1st reading 6. City Council 2nd reading and public hearing (final plan approval) In addition, both the Planning & Zoning Commission and the City Council held public hearings for the Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan prior to adoption by Ordinance No. 1060 in February and March of 2013. COMMUNITY FACILITY INVENTORY The City of Southlake has facilities located at various locations throughout the City. Three of these facilities are dedicated to the City's Department of Public Safety. When Brinkley Sargent conducted their study for the City, these facilities were excluded mainly because the type of study they were conducting was not intended to address police and fire coverage requirements or needs of the City. However, with the current construction of the DPS North facility, there will be sufficient public safety coverage through the entire City, including the projected population build out of the City. For the purposes of this master plan, the facilities that were taken into account were as follows: Town Hall Town Hall was completed in 2001 as part of the development of Southlake Town Square. The 4-story building contains the majority of the City's departments and serves as the administration center for the City. The City departments within the facility consist of Community Services, Planning & Development Services, Finance, Utility Billing, Public Works Administration, Facilities Services, Council Offices and Chamber, City Secretary's Office, City Manager's Office, Human Resources, Economic Development, the Public Library and includes several Tarrant County offices. Service Center (Public Works Operations) Service Center The Service Center was acquired by the City in 1996 and is located on the north side of Continental Boulevard between Kimball Avenue and South Carroll Avenue. It currently contains all of the Public Works Departments' operational service divisions consisting of Drainage, Streets, Water and Wastewater. Residential development has occurred all around the facility and the centers long term use at its current location may not be feasible. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 90 Senior Activity Center The Senior Activity Center is located at the site where a formal municipal complex had been planned for in the City's earlier master plans along the south side of Southlake Boulevard (F.M. 1709) between Byron Nelson Parkway and Parkwood Drive. The facility is currently 4,200 square feet and is heavily used for many activities. The Senior Activity Center is a former residential structure that has had an addition and converted for its current use. With the three facilities just mentioned and the three public safety facilities, the City operates six facilities. This Community Facilities component of this master plan is intended to address those needs and demands that otherwise may not have been addressed within the Brinkley Sargent report and provide guidance and direction to City staff and future elected and appointed officials. Bob Jones Nature Center The Bob Jones Nature Center & Preserve is located at 355 E. Bob Jones Road on the north end of the City adjacent to Grapevine Lake. The Center is an approximately 4,000 square foot building on 758 acres of U.S. Army Corp of Engineers and City Property. The Bob Jones Nature Center & Preserve is owned by the City of Southlake and managed by the Bob Jones Nature Center Organization whose mission is the preservation of local natural resources and history; accomplished by providing places of compatible recreation, and fostering education about our natural environment. Southlake Tennis Center (at Bicentennial Park) The Southlake Tennis Center is an approximately 2,500 square foot building and also consists of 19 tennis courts, office space, pro shop, and ample parking for tennis center and park patrons. The center is owned by the City of Southlake managed under a contractor whose goal is to operate a first class facility that provides top quality tennis programs and excellent customer service. COMMUNITY FACILITY NEEDS AND DEMANDS According to the Brinkley Sargent report facilities for a city can be categorized as either "Staff/Population" driven or "Quality of Life" driven. Staff or Population driven facilities include such departments as Courts, City Manager, Public Safety, Fire and Public Works. These departments provide for the core needs of the community and can be directly compared to what other cities of similar population and demographics may be providing. The "Quality of Life" driven facilities can be compared to state and national recommendations for facilities as well as comparable facilities within the area. Facilities falling into this category may include; Parks and Recreation Centers, Parks, Libraries, Cultural Arts, and Senior Centers. The amount and size of these facilities is dependent upon the expectations of the citizens and on how the City chooses to respond to those expectations. They are not critical to the level of service to the community but do add to the "quality of life" for the citizens. In this master plan, those "quality of life" facilities are intended to be addressed by providing recommendations as provided at the end of this section under Community Facilities Recommendations/Policy Matrix. Ordinance No. 1060, Adopted Month Day, Year • • • • Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan 91 The needs assessed for the purposes of this plan addressed the internal configuration of Town Hall as it pertained to location of City departments and uses of spaces. Brinkley Sargent developed from their analysis the following action items (recommendations) for Town Hall: • Move Municipal Court and Teen Court to DIPS headquarters (completed) • Utility Billing to serve as reception point • Relocate the Library (Approx. 30,000 square foot facility) • Place Development Services on 15` Floor • Move Economic Development to 2"d level • Move Human Resources to vacated Planning area on 3rd Floor • Place Copy Area with Utility Billing • Possible relocation of Break; locate Library Reading Room in current Break area space • Expand Training — add dedicated computer training Since these action items were based on a report conducted five years ago, some circumstances have changed and will continue to do so. The need to address these demands and current needs of the City will change when this component of the master plan is updated. COMMUNITY FACILITY RECOMMENDATIONS During the process of this master plan a few items relating to community facilities were discussed and deemed important enough to include them as a part of the plan. These items eventually led to the consolidated Parks, Recreation & Open Space / Community Facilities Master Plan. The areas of focus during these disucssions were: • The need for a community recreation center with a senior center area programmed within the facility • An expanded or new facility for the Senior Center • The long term feasibility of the Service Center at its current location • The location and size of the City library due to changing demands and innovation in technology • Implementation of the Bob Jones Nature Center & Preserve Master Plan recommendation to construct a new nature center facility During the process it was determined that in order to address some of the facilities, additional analysis of these facilities with more information would be needed, such as the Service Center and Library location. Based on the recommendations of the Brinkley Sargent report, and the public meetings held with the committee, SPIN, Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council, the recommendations that were produced from this master plan process are located on the following page and address the items noted above.
