SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL <br /> Provided to the City Council <br /> March 13, 2017 After Distribution of Packet <br /> City Council, City of Pleasanton Date 3-I y-17 <br /> 200 Old Bernal Avenue <br /> Pleasanton, CA 94566 <br /> c/o: citycouncil @cityof pleasantonca.gov; eholmgren @cityofpleasantonca.gov <br /> RE: 2017-2018 WORK PLAN PRIORITIES—ROTARY PARK PHASE II <br /> Dear Mayor Thorne and City Council Members: <br /> I am writing to urge you to support Rotary Park Phase II as a high priority on the City's 2017-2018 Work <br /> Plan Priorities List. <br /> Phase I was a great addition to the northern Main Street gateway to Downtown Pleasanton when Rotary <br /> Park was dedicated on April 30, 2015. Pleasanton's three Rotary Clubs—Rotary Club of Pleasanton, <br /> Pleasanton North Rotary and Tri-Valley Evening Rotary-were honored to have the park renamed as <br /> Rotary Park in recognition of our 50 years of service to the city. I'm sure my fellow Rotary members <br /> would agree it was an honor and pleasure to donate the traditional street clock that has become the <br /> park's centerpiece at Main Street and Vervais Avenue. <br /> Unfortunately,the City's commitment to a two-phase renovation of the 0.75 acre property has yet to be <br /> fulfilled.The first phase, as laid out in the western most portion of the schematic park design by Keller <br /> Mitchell and Company was completed in time for Rotary Park's dedication. It included plaza lights, a <br /> semi-circular shade trellis, and game tables and chairs adjacent to the plaza and street clock. <br /> These are excellent improvements, but they fell short of the vision of the original plan. Phase II extends <br /> improvements to cover the entire 0.75 acre property and includes additional drought-proof landscaping, <br /> a garden demonstration project, lighting, improved entry to the Centennial trail, a BBQ pit, picnic tables, <br /> bocce ball courts, space for public art and on-site parking. <br /> I strongly urge you to now to make phase II a high priority when you meet on March 14 to set the City <br /> Council Priorities for 2017-2018. The improvement will complete the much need gateway to the north <br /> end of the Downtown Business District and fulfill Rotary Park's potential as a quiet spot for family- <br /> oriented recreation and relaxation at the heart of our wonderful city. <br /> Sincerely yours <br /> John Parker <br /> Member, Pleasanton North Rotary <br />
