W•{�iiw_ BY APPROVED SUBJECT: Appointment of Diana Warden as Youth Advisory Park & Recreation Commissioner RECOMMENDATION. It is recommended that Diana Warden be appointed as the second Youth Advisory Parks & Recreation Commissioner for the 1998-99 school year. Diana's term of office should be set as November 3, 1998 to June 30, 1999. BACKGROUND. The Park & Recreation Commission has failed to achieve a quorum for either its regular September or October meeting. As a result, the Commission has not been able to formally interview Diana Warden, a candidate for this year's second Youth Advisory Commissioner position, and has not been able to make a formal recommendation to the City Council regarding her appointment. Commission Chairman Mike Nilmeyer has asked that I forward Diana's application to you and recommend her immediate appointment so she does not lose another month of service on the Commission. I believe that Diana would be an excellent appointment to the Youth Advisory Commissioner position. She is a Junior at Burlingame High School and participated in the 1998 Burlingame Together Summer Workshop. I recommend her appointment as Youth Advisory Commissioner.

The public will be invited to attend the workshop and share their ideas on how Burlingame can become an even better place to live and work. The one -day workshop will be held in one of the local hotels and a staff member from the San Mateo County Office of Education will facilitate the activities. Details are currently being planned by the Facilitating Committee and will be available in January. Anyone willing to assist on the project is encouraged to contact John Williams at 696-7245. A NEW BURLINGAME TOGETHER PROJECT: COMMUNITY CALENDAR People have been discussing the idea for years, and several attempts have been made to compile a community calendar of events. The new twist will be the Internet. And, who better than Burlingame Together to take on a project for the good of the entire community. The Parks & Recreation Department will work with the Chamber of Commerce to set-up the initial calendar and Recreation staff will handle the updates. Community groups will be able to send information to be posted and the calendar will be available to anyone with Internet access. Information about the calendar and how to post information will be available in the next few months. Never again will we have to say, "This will be a successful activity, as long as nothing else is going on at the same time."

Next Meeting: Tuesday, December 15th, 4:30 to 5:30 p.m., Recreation Center EXHIBIT B - CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL LANDFILL PARK (FIR 98-1PM 250 ANZA BOULEVARD CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: The following conditions of approval serve as `good practice' measures to improve the project or ensure that the proposed project meets agency standards. 1. The City shall require that the operator of the driving range maintain a regular inspection schedule to ensure the netting has not deteriorated in such a way that would allow golf balls to pass through or over the netting. The City is responsible for netting repairs when they arise. 2. The City shall also require that the operator maintain a regular schedule to inspect the grounds outside the driving range netting for errant balls. 3. Should more than 15 golf balls appear outside the driving range netting per month, the City shall consider reserving the right to refuse service to those customers who repeatedly hit balls over the netting, using reduced flight golf balls, increasing the height of the netting, and/or adding tee dividers to the center tee stations. 4. The City shall maintain a regular inspection schedule to ensure that the fence has not deteriorated in such a way that would allow softballs to pass through or over the fence. The City shall be responsible for fence repairs when they arise. 5. On the lower deck softball field, the City shall maintain a regular schedule to inspect the grounds outside the eight foot high fence for errant softballs. 6. Should more than eight softballs or baseballs appear outside of the eight foot high fence per month, the City shall consider increasing the height of the fence, limiting use of the field to slow -pitch games, and/or eliminating use of the field by adult male or top-level teams. 7. The City shall prohibit the use of baseballs on the softball field, except during little - league or women -league games and shall post signs around the perimeter of the field to that effect. 8. Posted signs shall also indicate that balls hit over the fence should not be retrieved because of the potential to disturb Sanchez Marsh wildlife. 9. The City shall consider native landscaping such as vines that can mask the height and mass of the eight foot high section of fence to enhance the visual appearance and 1 discourage graffiti. 10. No bleachers shall be allowed adjacent to the left side of the softball field next to the Wastewater Treatment Plant. Screening shall be installed along this side of the Wastewater Treatment Plant to screen the facilities from park users. 11. The City shall require that lights for the recreational facilities be shut off by 10:30 p.m. so as not to disturb nocturnal wildlife activities. 12. The City shall require that all project lighting be directed downwards away from Sanchez Marsh and/or fitted with internal hardware to prevent spill light into Sanchez Marsh and surrounding upland habitat. 13. The City shall have erected a four foot high fence on the south side of the trail from the Anza Bridge west to the end of the established public trail. The fence shall be placed outside of the upland habitat boundary and its installation shall not result in the removal of any trees or shrubs. Gaps in the fence could be established to ensure that possible outside wildlife movement corridors remain unobstructed. 14. The City shall install netting with a neutral color such as gray so the contrast between the netting and sky is reduced. 15. The City shall specify that the steel poles supporting the golf driving range netting be galvanized so that they have a duller finish that would not reflect sunlight. 16. The City shall specify in its construction documents that it requires all light fixtures to meet or exceed industry standards for cutoff performance to minimize spill light, reduce glare effects, and assist in conforming with the City's illumination ordinance. 17. The City shall require the lighting contractor to provide the minimum level of desired light, appropriate to the sport and level of play. Details shall be provided to the City to justify the number of poles, lamps, and wattage. 18. The lighting contractor shall be required to install the lights at the proper angle, to minimize spill light.
