Top issues during term (15)(Parks Rec)
Rohnert Park–Cotati Regional Library closure and services
Paid by Measure Y funds and a state infrastructure grant, with the share of cost split between the city and the library system.
Fall Community Events
The city avoided paying for carnival games out of a stretched Measure M budget by recruiting nonprofit partners.
Girl Scout Hut renovation recognition
Minimal city cost — Cal Ripken does the heavy lifting on the ballfields; Scout Hut utilities cost under $100 a month.
Party on the Plaza venue change
The solar project saves the city an estimated $5.8 million in energy costs over 20 years; accelerating construction to save the event would have cost about $700,000.
$1.5 Million in City Capital Project Transfers
$1.5 million total, with the Burton Recreation Center roof alone costing $450,000.
Youth Sports Advisory Task Force
Recreation Program Expansion and Software Modernization
The city's $10,000 youth subsidy fund is nearly exhausted ($8,700+ used), and a new software contract will replace one expiring from 2019.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee charter
Holiday Gift and Toy Drive funding
$16,917 total in appropriations for the toy drive, with donations covering most of it.
Street banner program
About $30,000 per year, paid by the Rohnert Park Foundation rather than the city's general fund.
Proposed Foxtail Golf Course Bike Path Connection
Not yet estimated; the speaker suggested the new financing district as a possible funding source.
Alicia Park Playground Replacement Project
About $1 million in Measure M funds plus Public Works-found money for irrigation replacement.
Facility Rental Program Access and Affordability
Rental fees generate department revenue while staying affordable for residents and nonprofits.
Utility Box Art Program Theme Selection
About $30,000 a year from the program budget covers roughly 15 boxes annually.
Benicia Park Concession Stand Renovation
$315,000 transferred from the General Liability Internal Service Fund F2350.
