5. Least important? <br /> • I am not going to say an individual sport that deserves the least attention, but please <br /> consider how many facilities there are for the mainstream sports already. <br /> 6. A youth sport park will include many active facilities for group sports. What other park <br /> facilities need to be provided in order to support the athletic component? <br /> • bathrooms <br /> 7. What other considerations are important factors in assuring the success of this community <br /> park? <br /> • I think there were some excellent topics pointed out by each table. <br /> • drainage <br /> • maintenance <br /> • irrigation <br /> • fertilizer <br /> • active communication w/ the youth this park is intended for <br /> • access across both drainage channels <br /> • spectator seating located adjacent to parking and street access and not near residential <br /> • Considering that 4J will eventually build a new Cal Young Middle School building on the <br /> same property, it would be more prudent to defer any major development of the Cal <br /> Young athletic fields until the new school's dimensions are finalized. I think it would be <br /> foolhardy to build elaborate athletic complexes on land that would be needed when the <br /> new school building is designed. <br /> 8. Any other comments? <br /> • I don't feel I have enough knowledge to contribute to a youths ports park. I am simply <br /> interested in some funds being directed towards Gilham fields so they can be utilized. <br /> • provide lights to allow optimal usage of facilities <br /> • Skateboard parks should be built according to the "1990 Skateboard Task Force Report" <br /> regarding site selection (highest: Amazon& Washington/Jefferson; moderate: Asscot .. . <br /> etc.). So, no skateboard parks at Sheldon or Cal Young until priority sites are built. <br /> Although middle schools are desirable site locations. <br /> • At Cal Young build a skate bowl in the location of the existing gravel parking. <br /> • Do not add more facilities, but upgrade existing. <br /> • Either add more parking or design to force people to use parking to the south. <br /> • I would rather you consider enhancing the Gilham School site and then, not intensifying <br /> the traffic, noise, disturbances to the surrounding residential community by distributing <br /> the dollar investment over several sites, rather than concentrating the effort toward a <br /> "complex" at either Gilham or Cal Young. I am very much opposed to light towers, <br /> sound systems, air horns and other invasions into my own back yard. Presently the noise <br /> level along Crescent St. is an impediment to enjoying my back yard in the evening. It is <br /> so loud already, we have a difficult time putting our 2 young children to sleep at night. <br /> Cal Young Youth Sports Park <br /> Introductory Meeting Page 6 <br />
