Incorporated in 1854, the City's 205,000 residents make it the second largest municipality east of Los Angeles and 18th largest in California. The City's elevation is 1,049 feet above sea level and encompasses the area of approximately 59.3 square miles. As the county seat of San Bernardino County, it lies in the midst of the booming Inland Empire region. The City was founded early in California's history, and its Bicentennial Celebration is scheduled for 2010. Influences of Native Americans, Mexican settlers, Spanish missionaries, and Mormon emigrants can still be seen throughout the City today. From 1910 when Franciscan missionary Father Dumetz named the area San Bernardino to the present, San Bernardino - nestled south of the San Bernardino Mountains and west of the lower desert - has been recognized for its scenic beauty and strategic location. 2009-369 San Bernardino has a wide variety of recreational attractions and entertainment venues. From playing golf at one of its many public and private golf courses, to a 30-60 minute drive to mountains, skiing, deserts, beaches, resorts, and world-class cultural and sporting events, a variety of activities for all ages is available to residents and visitors. San Bernardino enjoys some of America's finest weather, with its Mediterranean-type temperatures. Like the rest of the Southland, the community enjoys the fruits of 30 years of improving air quality, culminating in no smog alerts in 1999 and only 30 days of unhealthy air in 2005. San Bernardino is an ethnically diverse City with an above average proportion of households having children under 18 years of age and a below average income profile. The City is projected to grow slowly over the next 10 to 15 years, after which growth is expected to increase somewhat until 2035. About 60 percent of the growth indicated by the build out projection is not expected to occur until after 2035, according to the most recent Southern California Area of Governments projections. The City operates under a hybrid Mayor-Council-City Manager form of government. The Mayor is elected by the voters at large, and is the City's Chief Executive Officer. Each of the seven members of Council is elected by voters within their respective Wards. The Mayor and Council members serve four-year terms. Under the supervision of the Mayor, the City Manager is the Chief Administrative Officer. The City Manager directs most City Departments, other than those governed by separate boards (Water Dept., Civil Service, Library) and the office of elected officials. The City Manager's Office, in addition to assisting the Mayor and Council in policy formulation, focuses on special projects. The City of San Bernardino also has an elected City Attorney, City Treasurer, and City Clerk. o FEDERAL TAX 10 NUMBER: 95-6000772 o CURRENT OPERATING BUDGET: 389-Aquatics/Sports: $311,400 (Aquatics Part-time Wages: $106,100) o TOTAL PROJECT BUDGET(REQUEST): $414,322 (UNFUNDED $102,922) o TOTAL FUNDING REQUEST $25,000 2009-369 o STATEMENT OF NEED: The City of San Bernardino 2009-2010 Operating Budget for Aquatics/Adult Sports is under-funded by $102,922, with maintenance standards at bare minimum. Part-time personnel has been reduced by approximately $72,000 ($59,000 program staff, $13,000 maintenance staff). Due to the City's budget constraints, only the Jerry Lewis Family Swim Center was originally scheduled to open for the 2009 summer season. For the 2009 Aquatics Season, the City of San Bernardino secured $25,000 in a one-time transfer of funds from the Mayor's Office and $20,000 from the Kaiser Foundation Hospital Community Benefit Charitable Contributions Program. This allowed us to open Mill Pool, extend operations at two other pools, and provide two free swim sessions at each of the Hernandez and Nunez Pools. Three neighborhood pools will remain closed for the 2010 Aquatics Season (June- August). Low-income areas will go under served in water fitness and water safety (Iearn-to-swim) activities. Residents will need to go elsewhere in finding other means to stay fit, seek relief from summer heat, and learn swim skills. Youth obesity and the chronic illnesses associated with it (asthma, diabetes) will increase, as will the potential for deaths due to drowning and heat stroke. According to the Center For Disease Control and Prevention, 36% of middle school through high school students in the City of San Bernardino are either overweight or at risk for becoming overweight; that's one in every three teens. Furthermore, an astonishing 70% do not meet currently recommended levels of physical activity, and 52% do not attend physical education classes daily. o PROGRAM OR PROJECT NAME: Nunez Pool Open Swim and Learn-To-Swim Program o INDICATE WHETHER NEW OR CONTINUING PROGRAM: Continuing Program o DESCRIPTION: Open Swim and Learn-To-Swim programs are a part of the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department mission in the municipal recreation and leisure service delivery system. Open swim is drop-in water play, six days a week (M-Sat), from 1 :OOp.m.- 3:00p.m. and 3:30p.m. - 5:30p.m. where the community can come and swim for their health, socialize with friends, and/or cool down from the hot summer weather. In the Learn-To-Swim program, low income youth ages 6-16 years are taught basic swim skills and water safety awareness in a two-week session, 45-minute daily 2009-369 lesson in a small group setting. Nunez Pool is one of six aquatics locations programmed in this manner. Swim activities at the 9th Street Community Center Pool (Boys & Girls Club) and the Delmann Heights Pool are provided through a partnership with the Boys & Girls Club of San Bernardino. The Jerry Lewis Family Swim Center at Perris Hill Park is currently the only swim facility funded by the City's General Fund. A large portion of the City's at- risk youth and low-income housing is situated in the Nunez Pool service area. o GOAL(S) AND OBJECTIVES: PRCSD's primary goal through aquatics activities and facilities is to promote healthier lifestyles, water safety awareness, and a higher quality of life among community residents. One objective is to offer swim opportunities to as many under-privileged families (youth, teen, adult, and seniors) as possible by opening and staffing pools that provide open swim activities to improve personal health and fitness. Another objective is to save lives through the provision of safe learn-to-swim activities that prevent drowning, especially among youth. A third objective is to provide relief from the extreme Southern California desert heat for both the young and old especially. A more fit community will extend lives, reduce healthcare costs, reduce juvenile crime and delinquency, and attract greater business investment to further the quality of life of our residents. o TARGET POPULATION, AGE GROUP, ETHNICITY, GENDER, AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA: The target audience is the general public patronage in and around the Nunez Park area, in particular the southwest quadrant (Wards 1 & parts of 3 and 6) of the City of San Bernardino. The area represents much of the City's Hispanic disadvantaged youth (ages 6-17 years) and poor citizenry (seniors included). Especially critical in this service are those neighbors within walking distance that cannot afford to travel far for aquatics services. o NUMBER OF PEOPLE EXPECTED TO REACH/SERVE. NUMBER REACHED/SERVED THE PREVIOUS YEAR AND SERVICES PROVIDED: Open Swim attendance at the Nunez Pool for the 2009 Season exceeded 4,400 (3,154 youth under age 18, 1,264 18+ years). The number of people expected to be reached in 1020 is the average of the past fives years (minus a surge in 2007 due to 2009-369 very hot weather extended through the entire season) at 5,259. (Note: The attendance at pools increases proportionately with temperature increases, especially days over 100 degrees temperature. Similarly, changes in the dates of middle- and high school breaks/starts drastically affects pool attendance.) o HOW WILL FUNDS REQUESTED BE UTILIZED (COMPLETE THE BUDGET TEMPLATE): See attached budget template. o COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS AND AGENCIES INVOLVED/PARTNERS: Staffing of the 9th Street Pool (Boys & Girls Club) and the Delmann Heights Pool is provided by an agreement/partnership with the Boys & Girls Club of San Bernardino. Two alternative funding strategies augmented the 2009 summer Swim Program: $25,000 from the Mayor's Office and $20,000 from the Kaiser Community Benefit Grants Program. The independent San Bernardino Water Department currently supplements water use costs, and the City is working with Southern California Edison at the Jerry Lewis Family Swim Center in their Energy Conservation Rebate Program. o NAME OF FISCAL AGENT (IF APPLICABLE): City of San Bernardino 2009-369 Kaiser Permanente Fontana Medical Center Community Benefit Grants Program-Letter of Interest Budget Template 2010-2011 Budget Template (Application): Please indicate how grant funds would be utilized.
