<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />5-4 <br /> <br />Pleasanton Parks and Recreation Master Plan <br />Section Five – Funding and Implementation Recommendations <br />2014 <br />b. Field Rental Fees for the use, maintenance and lighting costs associated with using a <br />sports field <br />c. Family Rental Fees for meetings, parties and special events <br />d. Charges for play, such as for tennis court reservations and/or golf green fees <br />e. Group picnic shelter use charges <br />f. Charges for the use of park sites for special events such as arts & crafts fairs, <br />tournaments, antique shows, auto shows, weddings, concerts, carnivals, Christmas tree <br />sales, etc. <br />g. Joint‐Use with non‐profit organizations is also included in this category, where sports <br />teams would renovate fields and/or provide field maintenance (labor or costs) in <br />exchange for guaranteed use of the field during the season <br />2. Corporate Sponsorship of Events ‐ This is most popular for sports teams and other various <br />activities, and should be actively pursued. <br />3. Adopt‐a‐Park Programs ‐ This type of program could generate funds or volunteers to provide <br />maintenance for City parks or facilities. <br />4. Volunteer Labor ‐ Useful for certain programming and/or maintenance tasks, however does not <br />constitute a large portion of funding needs. <br />Sources for Both Capital and Operation and Maintenance Funding <br />1. Concessions ‐ By contracting with a concessionaire to build and/or operate a facility, the City <br />can generate income which could cover the capital costs and maintenance of the facility. <br />Examples of such concession‐operated facilities include: baseball or softball diamonds, <br />equestrian facilities, handball courts, tennis courts, miniature golf, roller hockey facilities and <br />food and beverage concessions. In most cases, the city provides a site for the facility and either <br />the city or the concessionaire funds the construction of the facility. The lease terms are <br />determined accordingly. <br />2. Special District Assessments ‐ These include Benefit Assessment Districts (under state law <br />AB1600), Landscape and Lighting Act Districts, and Mello‐Roos Districts. A special assessment or <br />levy is placed on a property to finance improvements and/or maintenance that specifically <br />benefit that property. The legislation requires a vote of the residents in order to form such <br />districts or in order to change the level of assessment. <br />3. Taxes ‐ Some examples of taxes used by other cities to pay for park and recreation include <br />Transient Occupancy Tax, Real Estate Transfer Tax and Admissions Tax. A portion of such tax <br />revenue could be dedicated for specific park and recreation uses, either to provide funding for a <br />bond issue or to cover defined maintenance and operating costs. <br />4. User Group Contributions – Sports groups sometimes have an interest in constructing and <br />maintaining fields for their use if the City would provide a nominal lease of land for a reasonable <br />time span so that they can capture the value of the improvements. This relieves the City of the <br />associated costs; however, it precludes the use of the fields by other user groups unless that is <br />made a condition of the lease. <br />5. Joint‐Use Agreements with School Districts – Joint‐Use Agreements with local School Districts <br />can provide for reciprocal use of facilities by both parties. They define responsibilities for capital <br />improvements and maintenance of the facilities. Problems sometimes arise when expanding
