<br />Supplemental Report
<br />Orange County Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2030
<br />November 18, 2014
<br />At the June 3, 2014 public hearing, the Board of Commissioners requested staff bring
<br />back additional information in several areas for use in considering the new master plan.
<br />Topical Area 1 — Prioritize Planned Parks and Recreation Facilities
<br />Included in the current adopted FY 2014 -19 Capital Investment Plan (CIP) are four new
<br />parks, five future phases of existing parks, two nature preserve access areas, one trail,
<br />and funding for the acquisition of land for future parks and public open spaces (including
<br />some of the CIP projects). Over the coming decade, a number of park improvements
<br />and facility replacements have also been identified.
<br />In the last three months, staff has researched prior system master plans and parks
<br />reports, CIP's and other related plans, as well as projected future activity and potential
<br />partnerships for these projects. Staff has also discussed prioritization with the Parks &
<br />Recreation Council (PRC) and the Intergovernmental Parks (IP) Work Group.
<br />Based on this analysis, the following table shows a newly - prioritized list of projects from
<br />Table 10 -1 of the draft Parks & Recreation Master Plan 2030:

<br />- Projected portion of the cost that may be provided by partner or grant funds. Timing impacts how many projects may get funds.
<br />" - It is expected that grants and /or funding from partners will be pursued and leveraged for these projects. Exact amounts are not
<br />known, these are estimates from staff on potential funding. Decisions were made on which projects might be most - likely to receive
<br />funding from grant sources, and which would be least likely, based on current knowledge. Projects may also be further phased.
<br />Projects in gray shading may be able to be funded from pay -as- you -go (PAYG) revenues. The other projects would likely require
<br />some type of debt issuance.
