RESOLUTION RENEWING THE COMMITMENT
TO COMPLETE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PATTON
PARK PROPERTY AND TO DESIGNATE PARK
DEVELOPMENT FEE FUND, AND CITY'S
ALLOCATIONS THROUGH STATE AND/OR
FEDERAL PARK DEVELOPMENT FUNDS AS
POTENTIAL SOURCES FOR FUNDING THE
COMPLETION.
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.

Mayor and Common Council
City of San Bernardino

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 6ernardino,
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..

Therefore, the Park and Recreation Commission urges the Mayor and Common
Council to publicly commit to develop the Patton Park property into a full
service park and to designate funding in the 1988/89 City Budget to begin
the next phase of construction with a goal for completion of project within
the next three (3) years.
