Measure L & Prop 68

Play Lodi!

Activity Guide • Spring/Summer 2019

Playground Upgrades on the Horizon It’s a new day for Lodi Parks and Recreation with opportunities afforded by Measure L, the sales tax our citizens approved in November to improve Lodi’s quality of life.

While additional police and firefighters have already been approved by our City Council, we’re hopeful Lodi’s parks will see the benefits in the next year when the fiscal year budget – starting July 1 – is adopted in June.

In addition to our plans to replace the playground at Candy Cane park this summer, we’re requesting Measure L funds to replace and restore playgrounds at English Oaks Park, Beckman Park and Katzakian Park. What’s left of the English Oaks Park playground is approaching 28 years old, the Beckman Park playground was removed in 2004, and the Katzakian Park playground is 17 years old. The lifespan of this equipment is typically 12 to 15 years.

We’re planning on replacing other aging playgrounds in future years, and are excited about the other possibilities to enhance and restore our other park facilities with Measure L funds.

Dreaming of Prop 68 Funding Dream big, Lodi!

That’s the message we’re sending as we seek the public’s ideas for park and facility improvements at Hutchins Street Square and Blakely Park.

Proposition 68, a $4 billion water and park bond passed by state voters in June 2018, grants up to $8.5 million for projects that acquire, expand or renovate parks. Lodi and other cities and park districts are vying for $255 million of that funding through a competitive grant process.

It’s been decades since Lodi Parks and Rec has had this type of opportunity, so dream big and give us your ideas!

We’ve started the public outreach process for Hutchins Street Square and Blakely Park. Check our outreach calendar and attend one of our future workshops so that we can submit projects that are an outgrowth of our community engagement efforts. That’s our best shot at getting these projects funded!

4

Other Trends & Issues Aquatics upgrades: We’re putting more emphasis on our aquatics programs and facilities this year, as you may have already noticed. We’re offering a lifeguard certification course to develop a local workforce that will keep our swimming areas safe and provide seasonal and part-time employment. On the facilities side, we’ve made a major investment into renovating the Enze Pool at Blakely Park, which will include a new shade structure for visitor comfort on hot days. In addition, we’ll be expanding our hours for open swim at the pool on summer weekdays, rather than just weekends. Blakely Park is on Stockton Street, just north of Kettleman Lane.

Roundup: We’ve stopped using the herbicide Roundup to control weeds within 25 feet of playgrounds due to increasing concerns about the product’s safety. This will likely result in more unsightly weeds in these areas, but it’s a small price for the assurance that our most vulnerable residents are playing in safe spaces.

Lodi Lake beach safety: Did you know the water quality at Lodi Lake beach has vastly improved in recent years due to our efforts to keep geese away from the swimming area? We have not had a bacteria-related closure at Lodi Lake – which typically follows a heat wave -- since 2014. We collect water samples weekly in the swimming area, which are tested for e. Coli and coliform bacteria. The results are compared to the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department’s water quality standards to determine if it’s safe to swim. Have confidence that when the beach is open, it’s safe to swim.

DID YOU KNOW?

Activity Guide • Spring/Summer 2019

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR PARK SYSTEM

• 24% of participants responded to survey.

• 86% of respondents stated they were "very to somewhat satisfied" with the program overall.

• 87% of respondents stated they would "definitely, very or be somewhat likely" to utilize this program in the future.

A sincere thank you to those who participated in the survey; we greatly appreciate your time and input! Please be on the lookout for our 2019 Camp Surveys in July and August. Your continued support and constructive feedback is critical to our continuous improvement and maintaining high performance standards.

“My son loved his experience, and so did I. It was very comforting knowing my 6 year old was well taken care of, while building new relationships and partaking in new experiences. He tried a lot of new things and had a blast every day. All staff I encountered was very friendly and helpful, and safety was a #1 priority. We will be back again next year!!!!” -Parent Testimonial

Results of the two surveys were combined and averaged, and the highlights are below. To view the entire survey, please go to Lodi.gov/PRCS and click the link for Lodi Kids Camp Survey Results.

Nine questions, each with a rating scale of 1 to 5, were asked - with a 10th question asking for open-ended feedback. Question No. 1 was designed to provide comprehensive and critical feedback related to Safety (4.43), Communication (3.71), Program Activities (4.29), Value (3.93), Responsiveness to Concerns (4.55), and Quality of the Extended Care program (4.60).

R PA

You may recall that one of our goals for 2018 was to develop an exceptional summer day camp program that served youth and families from the Lodi area. Ultimately, providing a quality camp experience where children are safe and respected, in addition to earning the trust and confidence of parents, was and will always be our top priority. Two customer satisfaction surveys were conducted last summer (one at the end of each session), and the results are in! Did we achieve our goals and meet our customers’ expectations?

Where are our areas of improvement?

Activity Guide • Spring/Summer 2019

Updates on Park Improvements

367 Acres of Parkland

Blakely Park Pool Renovations John Blakely once was Lodi’s city clerk and the park was named in his honor when it was built 65 years ago. We think he’d be proud of what we’re doing!

We’re wrapping up the first step ahead of the summer swimming season with the renovation of the 32-year-old Enze Pool. Swimmers this summer will find a new pool deck, new plaster, new starting blocks for competitive swimmers, and a new shade structure that will make it comfortable for those choosing to stay dry.

Later this year, we’ll go out to bid for a new park restroom using federal grant funds, and to reconstruct the sports fields on the northern half of the park, including a new irrigation system to replace the one that’s 56 years old. That will keep the turf healthy and ensure the park will be a great place for baseball, softball and soccer for many years.

The sports fields are funded through a State grant, which is also paying to construct a new basketball court. We anticipate construction at about this time next year!

DeBenedetti Park Development DeBenedetti Park Parks and Rec is narrowing its focus M ASTER P LAN for future development at DeBenedetti Park after conducting surveys and public outreach meetings. We had hundreds of people respond to our survey, and dozens more attend meetings facilitated by a landscape architecture firm that is leading our planning efforts.

We’re looking to plan the 20 acres of “high” ground at the park – essentially the untouched space at street level that will meet the recreational needs of the nearby residents, but also the community’s needs for larger recreation space.

Our experts will soon provide alternative plans for the park’s final design, which will then go to the Parks and Recreation Commission and then City Council for approval. The next phase of development could occur as soon as 2020!

Nature Area Grant Update Another park upgrade planned for 2020 or 2021 is a renovation of the Lodi Lake Park Nature Area amphitheater and educational features. We’re in the process of developing new interpretive panels that will help visitors learn about our unique resource, and staff is working on plans to put this project out to bid in 2020.

Enze Pool Under Construction

When finished, the Nature Area amphitheater will be a focal point for education about the 58-acre urban wilderness and community gathering.

· Increased enforcement of park rules and ordinances; · Installation of security cameras.

All residents should be able to enjoy a local park every day. Our department’s role and mission is to serve the community to this end by removing all barriers that impact everyone’s ability to play, exercise, read, relax, laugh, and gather with family and friends.

Should you see an area within a park that needs our attention, please call 368-1012 or email prdept@lodi.gov.
