PURPOSE: The purpose of this item is to inform the Commission of the limited property available near the police station for sports field activities and the recommendation of Starmer-Ranaldi Planning and Architecture, Inc. and staff. CONSIDERATION: · The City Commission at the June 28,1999 meeting directed the City Manager to get together with the consultant and determine alternative solutions to the need for practice fields in the City including the area surrounding the police station. · Starmer-Ranaldi recommends that although you can physically squeeze a few fields in the site it does not appear that this would be a very practical use of the land. FUNDING: N/A RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the areas of usable land to the north and south of the police station are more suitable and should be set aside for future expansion wooded with limited access and no parking. The area at the intersection of 419 and Edgemon Avenue is impacted by wetlands. The area across from Sunshine Park is small but may provide some T -ball fields and parking. Staff recommends Starmer-Ranaldi looking more closely at this area. IMPLEMENTATION: . Prepare Conceptual Plan and cost estimate by June, 2000 .

Christopher of our office, please find the attached aerial and survey (3 copies) depicting the jurisdictional wetland limits on the above mentioned project site for your approval. You had indicated that this would complete the information you need to finalize a "desktop" jurisdictional determination. A letter requesting a site inspection was sent to you on August 20, 1999. These wetland lines have been field reviewed and approved by Mr. Tony Miller of the St. Johns River Water Management District. If you have any questions or require additional information, please feel free to contact us. Thank you for your cooperation. cerely yours, r,tJ JBB/lgh Attachments cc: Chuck Pula (w/o encl.)

This overall master plan sketch attached herewith as "Exhibit A" was prepared to show what capacity the Police Department has to accommodate additional Park and Recreation sport field activities. In our opinion although you can physically squeeze a few fields on the site in question., it does not appear that this would be a very practical use of the land for the following reasons: 1. In order to stay outside of the limits of the wetlands the sport fields are located very close to the roadway with little to no safety buffer. 2. In order to stay outside of the limits of the wetlands the sport fields need to be scattered about the site and cannot be clustered for efficient use, maintenance, and / or operations. 3. In order to stay outside of the limits of the wetlands there is very little space in addition to the sport fields for adequate parking for athletes, coaches, and 1 or parents. 4. As shown on the attached "Exhibit A" the only location for a reasonably full size soccer field is on the north end of the property, and even then the two soccer fields shown have a negative impact on the wetlands. s. Certainly the property is capable, size wise, to handle several fields however, even with out knowing the qualityofthe existing wetlands we believe the expense involved to mitigate the wetlands for sport fields, would be extremely cost prohibitive. .
