G~ of Pleasanton Municipal Facilities Master Plan 2. Analysis of Prom. Sen/ices, and Facilities Reouirements The development of present and future radiities requirements beyond the baseline for health care, human services, and cultural and art activities must be predicated on a) statistically based needs assessment, b) comparisons with similar communities, and c) from perceived needs of the City, community o anizations and interest groups. Tasks 3 and 4 describe the consultants approach r~oar the latter two factors. This task will include identification of specific segments of the community, and definition of services and the facilities needed to accommodate health care and human services requirements of those roups. This process will include use of the statistical data collected in Phase I to idge~ntify senior dtizens, physically and mentally disabled persons, single parents, low income families, and other similar groups requiring specialized services and housing. It is recognized that the lack of available services presently may mean certain segments in the existing population are not able to live in Pleasanton and so are being served elsewhere. The consultant will make adjustments for this factor based on work completed in tasks 3 and 4. The results of this statistical analysis will be translated into a program and service I requirement statement. This requirement wil be projected into the future based on overall City population projections The requirement will be translated into fadlities and area requirements as detailed in Task 5. 3. Develop Comparable Communities Criteria Working with the City staff, and using available economic and demographic data, the consultant will identify municipalities which are of size, economic and demographic character and with a social make-up similar to what is projected for the City of Pleasanton. These will form the comparable communities baseline. The consultant will survey these cities through site visits, gathering of budget documents, and interviews to develop a matrix of services either provided directly or support, specifically by provision of facilities or areas. The consultant will identify programs and services which appear to be applicable to the City of Pleasanton, either in the near future or for a long range future. The level of service or the types of programs will be correlated to type and size of facilities and areas. 4. ~tv of Pfeasanton Sun/ev At the time the consultant is developing the comparable community matrix, we will be suweying existing community groups and organizations relative to future f programs, perceived needs, and potential re-direction or re-orientation o services. This survey will be conducted by developing a series of planning scenarios which describe the City of Pleasanton at three to four future periods which correlate to the projected size and social and demographic make-up of the City. This information will be prioritized and phased based on the proposed timing of the planning scenarios. It will also be important to identify what services are most effectively provided on a regional basis This will include defining each segment of the client population and the potential region service delivery agency.
