Item ##10 CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT FOR COUNCIL MEETING OF December 2, 2003 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Recreation & Parks Commission PREPARED BY: Ron Kenny, Community Services Director 0�le SUBJECT: Adjusted Amendment to Resolution No. R-1 16A-93 Establishing Policy for the Naming of City Parks, Park Features and Community Facilities DATE: November 24, 2003 BACKGROUND: In 1993 the Colton City Council established, by resolution, basic guidelines and an application process for the naming of City parks, park features and community facilities. On October 7 of this year, the City's Recreation & Parks Commission recommended to the City Council an amended resolution, which closed loopholes and cleaned up ambiguous language. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The City Council discussed the recommended resolution as forwarded by the Recreation & Parks Commission. Although they found the recommendation basically acceptable, they recommended additional items be added. The City Attorney was requested to develop a draft of the Council's recommendations and forwarded them to staff for inclusion on a future Commission agenda. His office also developed and included a revised application form. The Commission met on November 19 to review the City Council's recommendations. By a 5-0 vote, (two commissioners were absent), the Commission approved the Council's recommendations to the proposed amended resolution. They also approved the revised application form. A redlined version of the City Council's amendment recommendations to the Commission's original resolution amendment is attached. Also, a final recommended resolution and application form as provided by the City Attorney and approved by the Commission. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None. RECOMMENDATION: The Recreation and Parks Commission recommends that the City Council approve repealing Resolution No. R-1 16A-93 and adopt a Resolution establishing a new city policy for the naming of city parks, park features and community facilities and application form.
