- c. PREV-291. City of Pleasant on & Glen Kierstead (California Splash) Work session and review of possible modifications to the East Bay Regional Park District's (EBRPD) Land Use Development Plan for Shadow Cliffs Regional Recreation Area at 2500 Stanley Blvd. Modifications under consideration include the following: (I) Review of a proposed seven-acre expansion of the existing waterslide facility previously approved in the EBRPD Land Use Development Plan; (2) Relocation and expansion of the entry kiosks, landscaping, and other site improvements to accommodate the waterslide expansion; (3) Incorporation of a new two-acre bicycle motocross (BMX) facility on the west side of the park to be designed and operated by the City of Pleasant on; (4) Incorporation of an additional 8.7 acres on the west side of the park to be used for overflow parking; and (5) Relocation of the waterslide's main pedestrian entrance west of its current location to Remillard Road. Zoning for the property is P (public & Institutional) and C-S (Service Commercial) Districts. --- Mr. Iserson noted this was a work session, and summarized the staff report. The Park District would address the Planning Commission's comments and concerns as part of its plarming process, and would consider any necessary changes. After the EBRPD Board approves the land use plan amendment and the environmental document, they would submit a formal application to the City for the request, which would included a Conditional Use Permit for the expansion of the park and the BMX facility. A General Plan Amendment and Rezoning would be implemented for the De Silva parcel, which is immediately adjacent to Shadow Cliffs, and would be incorporated into the expanded park. A Design Review application for the buildings and overall site plan changes would be submitted. Mr. Iserson noted that one phone call was received from a neighbor, expressing concern about the waterslide expansion, but had no further issues with the plan. In response to an inquiry by Commissioner Kameny, Mr. Iserson confirmed that Shadow Cliffs Lake was within the City limits. In response to an inquiry by Commissioner Sullivan, Mr. Iserson noted that the City Council would have final approval regarding this application. Jim Wolfe, Director of Parks and Community Services, noted that this presentation was unusual, because their items typically came before the Plarming Commission after review by the Parks and Recreation Department. Because of the timing of the meetings, Parks and Rec would address the item on September 12, 2002. He noted that having a BMX r"' facility in the City had been a high priority for the City Council for approximately three PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES Septernberll,2002 Page 8
