allocate a line item for emergency/unforeseeable
repairs in the FY 16/17 budget for LMD-1 and P-85.
•The use of these funds would require City Council
approval.
•No similar provision was made in the FY 15/16
budget.
•Recently three emergency/unforeseeable events
have occurred that now require an appropriation of
funds.
Background (cont.)
•At Red Hill Park, two repairs are needed:
•The ballfield fencing on the north side of the 60’ baseball field
was struck by a vehicle that lost control and rolled down the
slope into the fence resulting in damage to the poles and chain
link screen.
•In a separate incident, a problem has arisen with the electrical
components that operate a portion of the walkway lighting.
There are 6 light poles that are currently out along the
walkway going south toward the lake from the restroom.

Lighting—wire short/damage

light poles and the circuit box.
Background (cont.)
At Beryl Park, one repair is needed:
•Recently, the park experienced a problem with the theft of
copper wire from the irrigation control system and walkway
security lighting.
•Some of the damaged wires affected our ability to irrigate the
newly planted soccer fields, therefore the emergency repairs
have already been completed.

Repair Costs
Recommended Action
•While these amounts are not significant, they are
not programmed into the limited operations
budgets for PD-85 or LMD-1.
•Staff recommends that the City Council approve the
appropriation of $2,460 from the PD-85 and LMD-1
fund balances as outlined in the staff report.
