STAFF REPORT The City requested an extension of the time for completion of development of the Patton property. In response to that request, the State Department of General Services has requested a written commitment from the City Mayor and Common Council to complete the development before the extension.will be considered. As you are aware, the City has already spent more than one million dollars toward the purchase of the property and development thus far. It is estimated that another one million will be needed to complete the develop- ment. The Department recommends that funding be phased in during the next three budget years in order to complete the development on a timely schedule. A completed park will provide a much needed full service park for the citizens of east San Bernardino. Recommend adoption of the resolution.

COMMUNITY .ERVICEI DePARTMENT ANNIE F DIRECTOR RAMOS March 31, 1988 Mayor and Common Council City of San Bernardino 300 North "D" Street San Bernardino, CA 92418 At the Regular Meeting of the Park and Recreation Commission on March 17, 1988, the Chairperson was again directed to write a letter to the Mayor and Common Council reiterating the Commission's position, concerns and recommendations relative to a commitment by the Mayor and Common Council to complete the development of the Patton Park property. The Park and Recreation Commission is well aware of the interest the County Medical Center has shown in acquiring the property to relocate the County Hospital Complex. Although it is realized that it is important that the Medical Center be relocated within the City of San Bernardino, the Commissioners feel that there are other state surplus properties located in the Patton area which should be considered before any decision is made regarding the City owned Patton Park property. This is open space purchased expressly for park development purposes and any other use of this property will result in the property being returned to the state. The City has already spent more than a million dollars in the purchase and development of the Patton property thus far, and it is anticipated that another one million dollars will be needed to completely develop the land into a full service park. For this property to be lost now would not only waste a portion of the previously spent funds, it would deprive the citizens of San Bernardino of a deserved park and recreation area. The eastern side of the City does not presently have enough park land to meet recommended national, state and local standards of 5 acres per 1,000 population. It is imperative that the City develop the Patton acreage. 547 N SIERRA WAY, SA.N BERNARDINO, CALIFORNIA 92401.1211 714/""-1233 4:NFt' y _"'i::I1I~"",.
