Skate Park Developers
Introduction
This report presents the staff response to Council's inquiry into the Skate Park
lease and Environmental Impact Report (E.I.R.).
Background
At their July 24 meeting the City Council held a public hearing concerning the
approval of the Skate Park E.I.R. Concurrent with that Council was to act on the
negotiated lease with the Council approved developer of this facility.
Staff has met with the developer and resolved the questions concerning the hours
of operation and the non - revokable performance bond covering the demolition of
the facility in case of abandonment or failure of the operation. Both of these
questions are resolved pursuant to Council's direction in that the developer has
agreed to a 10:00 p.m. closing time year round and agreed to a $50,000 non -
revokable performance bond to ensure demolition of the facility at the bonding
company's expense. Through the bonding procedure the individual members of the
corporation must pay the bonding company to restore the site. The contract was
also amended to require a formal bid from a reputable demolition contractor to
establish the cost of demolition after the facility is constructed.
Staff has again reviewed the addendum to the E.I.R. and feels that the developer
has responded properly to the questions raised in the February 2, 5, and March
22 memorandums from Mr. Scholl. In fact, Mr. Scholl had indicated prior to the
public hearing that the developer had satisfied his objections with the response

through the addendum, The meeting was held between staff (Mr. Arnett, Mr. Lunsford,
and Mr. Scholl) and the developer after the February 5 comments from Mr. Scholl.
Specific requests were made and upon submission and review by Mr, Scholl the
drawings included in this packet were approved for the E.I.R. and Planning
Commission review.
Northbound traffic is prevented from turning left at this site by a chain link
fence.
With reference to comments on lighting by both Ms. Welcome and Mr. Scholl, specific
brand names and pole heights were submitted by the developer in the addendum.
Relocation of the buildings to the south side would expose the northern area
to greater noise since all P.A. announcements of control and other uses would
point toward the homes, As now designed the buildings act as a buffer for any
noise that would generate from the park.
Alternatives
1. Council approve the E.I.R. and contract as amended to reflect Council
directives from the July 24 meeting; approve the project in concept to
allow application by the developer, to the Coastal Commission, and authorize
the City Manager to execute the contract upon approval of the Coastal
Commission.
2. Council may disapprove the E.I.R., the contract, and reject the project and
not construct a Skate Park.

QeII
Recommendation
Staff recommends Council approve alternative no. 1, approval of the E.I,R. and
amended contract and the project in concept to allow the developer to apply for a
permit from the Coastal Commission.
