preparation of a Health Risk Assessment to determine needed remediation measures for implementation. A future planning effort will determine park facilities for this site. In addition to new parks, in the near future the City will open a Community Garden at Val Vista Community Park, and will start on the restoration of the Alviso Adobe. The City will also seek funds to improve some existing recreational facilities. Drainage improvements at the Sports and Recreation Community Park and at the Upper PIeasanton Field would allow more play in rainy weather. Also, a new toddler pool is planned at the Dolores Bengtson Aquatic Center. These projects will need to be financed through a variety of sources, Recreational needs in North Pleasanton will be financed through residential park dedication fees, non-residential development projects which are conditioned to mitigate park impacts, and other financing mechanisms. Community parks could be financed partially through dedication of land as part of future developments and partially financed by the City's General Fund. The timing for construction of these facilities is determined by the amount of development and is budgeted each year in two-year increments in the City's Capital Improvement Program, COMMUNITY FACILITIES AND CULTURAL ARTS 21 One of Pleasant on's major attractions as a community is the quality and diversity of its community facilities including schools, parks, recreational facilities, and civic buildings.
