BAGKGROUND INFORMATION: ln June 2018, California voters approved Proposition 68, a $4 billion park and water bond. As a result, the State this year will grant nearly $255 million for park acquisition, expansion and renovation through the Statewide Park Development and Community Revitalization Program, a competitive grant program. ln anticipation of applying for grant funding under this program, Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services has conducted more than 15 public outreach efforts in recent months to obtain community feedback regarding potential improvements to Blakely and Hale parks, and Hutchins Street Square. After assessing community interest, PRCS plans on submitting applications for Blakely and Hale parks. The application for Blakely Park will seek funding to renovate and expand the aquatics facility with a new teaching pool, splash pad, new pool house/locker/shower area, as well as construct a picnic shelter. The estimated cost of those improvements are approximately $4.7 million. The proposed Hale Park project focuses on the south half of the park, consisting of new playgrounds, new landscaping, undergrounded utility lines, a new plaza and gazebo as a park focal point, wider sidewalks and more interior walkways leading to the gazebo. ln addition, the community indicated interest in including an art element to recognize the history and legacy of immigrants, from Germans in the 19th century to Japanese, Pakistanis and Mexicans. Estimated cost is approximately $g.Z million. Attached are copies of outreach notices and draft final site plans. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.

Is it an indoor recreation center? A splash pad or better aquatics facilities? Proposition 68 could make it possible. This $4 billion measure, passed by California voters last June, includes $255 million for local park acquisition, expansion and upgrades through a competitive grant program. Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services kicks off a series of workshops and project proposal meetings in April at Hutchins Street Square and Blakely Park. Once we have a good understanding of community priorities, we’ll seek the public’s feedback on the final concepts to develop an application for funding. Your voice is important in this process, and will help us deliver an application that has broad community backing. With potential funding of up to $8.5 million per project, Prop 68 presents an opportunity we can’t pass up! We look forward to seeing you – and hearing your suggestions – at an upcoming workshop! We need your input! Starts April 2 - Mark your calendars! Important!
