Below is a <br />summary: <br />Creek Neighborhood Park(3.4 acres): <br />1 Soccer/Baseball Combination (Unlighted) <br />1Basketball Court (Half) <br />1 Play Structure <br />1 Picnic Shelter (Portable Bathrooms) <br />Street Parking (17 spaces) <br />Analysis: <br />Staff recommends a soccer/baseball combination field with a play structure on site. Having a <br />park with a ball field/soccer field without a play structure has issues. Families that bring their <br />child to a game usually have other children and if the play structure is located elsewhere, it may <br />be impossible to have another parent or guardian take them to a different location. I also <br />recommend a small picnic shelter (12’ x 12’ or 16’x 16’) to provide a seating area and a small <br />basketball court due to their popularity. This park will be programmed for occasional games <br />and/or practices and therefore, providing parking is recommended. We recommend street <br />parking with 15-20 spaces. <br />Community (Town Neighborhood) Park(3.98 acres): <br />2 Tennis Courts <br />1 Basketball Court (Full) <br />1 Play Structure <br />2 Picnic Shelters <br />1 Splash Pad <br />Off Street Parking (27 spaces) <br />Analysis: <br />I think the activities proposed would be a good fit for a central community park. I think two <br />tennis courts with one basketball court would be sufficient. While this is a central area, these <br />types of activities will need sufficient parking and therefore, the layout we propose is for anoff <br />street parking lotwith 27 spaces. It is important to note that splash pads require a high level of <br />26 <br />Page of <br />
