<br /> <br />4-1 <br /> <br />Pleasanton Parks and Recreation Master Plan <br />Section Four – Recreation Facility Recommendations <br />2014 <br /> <br />4.0 RECREATION FACILITY RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> <br />This Section presents potential opportunities to meet the recreation needs identified in the Recreation Facility <br />Needs Assessment (Section Two) of this Master Plan. <br /> <br />Fortunately, there are not many existing deficiencies in the park system of Pleasanton, and there are some <br />opportunity sites already in progress that will contribute to meeting future demands for recreation facilities in <br />Pleasanton. New recreation elements could be added at existing parks, joint use schools, planned parks, <br />unplanned areas, or new property targeted for acquisition and development. Therefore, solving the recreation <br />needs puzzle could be accomplished in a variety of ways, depending upon specific analysis and design of each site <br />and upon future acquisition outcomes. Moreover, the City’s process of park design and development involves <br />extensive community input that will likely affect park and recreation facility design. This Master Plan report <br />strives instead to identify opportunities to consider for the development of future parks to meet identified <br />current and future recreation needs. <br /> <br />For City park projects, choosing a project or projects to pursue occurs as a result of the capital improvement <br />project budget and prioritization processes conducted by the City every two‐years as part of the budgetary <br />process. The chosen project would then follow a process pathway, with community input, that would determine <br />specific amenities and design for the park. <br /> <br />4.1 Overall Concept <br /> <br />Satisfaction of identified needs does not appear to be an overly daunting task; the City has effectively pursued <br />park and recreation facility additions and currently plans for more park improvements. Continued park and <br />recreation facility planning and development will be needed to satisfy current and future needs. It is <br />recommended that the City pursue satisfaction of recreation facility needs by using the following key strategies <br />and improvements. <br /> <br />Recommended Actions: <br /> <br />1. Implementation of facilities to meet current (existing) <br />facility needs (listed in alphabetical order): <br /> 1 community center <br /> 1 large dog park (over 2 acres) <br /> 1 large skate park – (over ½ acre) <br /> lighted synthetic turf multi‐use sports fields <br />2. Phased implementation of facilities to meet future <br />needs (in alphabetical order): <br /> 1 baseball field <br /> 1 dog park <br /> 1 recreational swimming pool <br /> 6 tennis courts <br />3. The City should consider construction of lighted, synthetic turf multi‐use sports fields by a combination of <br />delivery methods: by renovating existing fields, developing new community sports park land, or by <br />increased use of school sites <br /> <br />Highlights <br />Recommendations in existing sites and <br />opportunity sites attempt to address all the <br />identified recreation needs in Pleasanton <br />Community Center, off‐leash dog parks, <br />lighted synthetic turf sports fields, skate parks, <br />swimming pool, trails and tennis courts are <br />among the top new facility priorities <br />Adding field lighting, restrooms and synthetic <br />turf to renovate existing fields will be a <br />reasonable cost solution to meeting demand <br />Increasing joint‐use opportunities with the <br />Pleasanton United School District will help the <br />City address the tennis court deficiencies
