%r 007 RECREATION AND PARKS ADVISORY COUNCIL MAY 41 1988 Recommendation to Board of County Commissioners Subject : Master Recreation and Parks Plan and 5-Year CIP The Orange County Recreation and Parks Master Plan is a document which can "stand alone" as a planning tool for the Recreation and Parks Department. The Plan is composed of two components: * planning principles (Chapters 1-6) * financial/funding data (Chapter 7) The planning principles are appropriate for inclusion in the Orange County Comprehensive Plan, as the Recreation and Parks Element. The financial data is appropriate for utilization in Orange County' s 5-year capital improvement planning efforts, to be reviewed annually. The financial data has been recently reviewed in light of much public discussion in recent months concerning the broad scope of the Plan. If funding support of the Plan, is to be realized, it is important that monies requested are clearly identified with specific projects. To provide this focus, it is recommended that the CIP Request be broken down into funding for (a) pools, (b) park development (for three existing publically-owned sites) , and (c) park lands fund. Specifically: POOLS Two ( ) pools---one to be located in the $3, 260, 000 Chapel Hill area and one in the Hillsborough area. PARK DEVELOPMENT Development of existing publically-owned $738, 000 sites.
