SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Presentation and discussion on relocation options for the Parks and Recreation Department. Currently the proposed library expansion project would displace the department’s shop and office
space, and it is essential the parks’ shop facilities and operations be relocated to a new and permanent location prior to the start of library construction.
This presentation will weigh key facility program elements and the criteria needed to operate the department efficiently with various locations identified throughout the community. Each
of the locations will be viewed and discussed with Council through a web-based map, outlining the pros and cons of each location as it relates to the evaluation criteria and department
operational needs.
Note: The Parks and Recreation Department is currently successfully operating at or above capacity due to the efficiency of the current shop and its location. A move to a temporary
location for a long period of time without a plan for a permanent location would be crippling to the operations and greatly limit our ability to meet service expectations given our
current staffing and budget. If the old fire station/annex building where Parks is housed now will be demolished prior to the library expansion construction in 2021, it is essential
for the city to budget and plan for a department move prior to the start of that project.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Discussion with direction to staff on preferred location(s).
