Annette Brecheisen <br /> From: Pleasanton City Clerk <br /> Subject: 2017-2018 WORK PLAN PRIORITIES— ROTARY PARK PHASE II <br /> SUPPLEMENTAL PAATERJAL <br /> From: Michael Cherman Provided to the City Council <br /> Sent: Monday, March 13, 2017 3:10 PM After Distribution of Packet <br /> To: Mayor and City Council<citycouncil @citvofpleasantonca.eov> <br /> Cc: Ellen Holmgren <eholmaren @citvofpleasantonca.gov> Date , 3 -19- / 7 <br /> Subject: 2017-2018 WORK PLAN PRIORITIES—ROTARY PARK PHASE II <br /> City Council, City of Pleasanton <br /> 200 Old Bernal Avenue <br /> Pleasanton, CA 94566 <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 Plan <br /> Priorities List. <br /> Phase I was a great addition to the northern Main Street gateway to Downtown Pleasanton when Rotary Park <br /> was dedicated on April 30, 2015. Pleasanton's three Rotary Clubs—Rotary Club of Pleasanton, Pleasanton <br /> North Rotary and Tri-Valley Evening Rotary- were honored to have the park renamed as Rotary Park in <br /> recognition of our 50 years of service to the city. I'm sure my fellow Rotary members would agree it was an <br /> honor and pleasure to donate the traditional street clock that has become the park's centerpiece at Main <br /> 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 Mitchell <br /> and Company was completed in time for Rotary Park's dedication. It included plaza lights, a semi-circular <br /> 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 035 acre property and includes additional drought-proof landscaping, a <br /> garden demonstration project, lighting, improved entry to the Centennial trail, a BBQ pit, picnic tables, bocce <br /> 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 Council <br /> Priorities for 2017-2018. The improvement will complete the much need gateway to the north end of the <br /> Downtown Business District and fulfill Rotary Park's potential as a quiet spot for family-oriented recreation <br /> and relaxation at the heart of our wonderful city. <br /> Sincerely yours, <br /> Michael Cherman <br /> Member, Pleasanton North Rotary <br /> 1 <br />
