Parks and Trails Master Plan • Commission Chair Crotty indicated that the key to a revision of the plan is the decision about the future of Kevin Moran and Azule Parks. Until those decisions are made, revision of the plan would be an incomplete effort. Public Works Director Perlin suggested that the group may wish to come back to this topic after all the other items are discussed. Then maybe the City Council could give better direction to the Commission regarding revisions to the current plan. Mr. Perlin indicated that there were some organizational changes to the plan he would like to see which would make the document easier to understand and use but these would not impact the substantive issues which remain to be decided. Councilmember Wolfe arrived at the meeting, the time being 8:25 PM. The City Council agreed that the Commission should identify specific areas in the plan for updating and to report back to the 9 ----~ City Council at anothe as to the areas .~~ ~1 identified for c ange an w at those proposed changes might be, if possible at that time. D. Discussion of open space Element and Master Plan implementation committee Report • It was noted that at the last joint meeting the recommendations contained in the report had been reviewed by the City Council but not adopted. It was agreed that when the City Council and the .Commission next meet that the Commission is to be prepared to recommend which of the conclusions of the Committee should be folded into the Parks and Trails Master Plan. 8. Locating a Place for a Community Garden Within Foisting Park Properties. The staff was requested to invite the Friends of the Nelson Gardens and members of the community who are on the list for garden plots at E1 Quito Park to the Town Hall meeting as these groups have special perspectives on park facilities needs which should be heard. F. Locating a Dog Run Area within Foisting Park Properties or Othes~-ise Dealing Nith the Issue of Dogs in the Parka The Commission asked if the issue of liability had been examined regarding allowing dogs to run loose in the parks? The City Manager responded that he would inquire through the City's risk manager as to the potential liability exposure this could create • and whether such a course of action was recommended and if so under what conditions. Parks and Building Superintendent Rizzo reported that he had looked into fencir~ an area under the PG & E power lines to create a safe dog exercise area, that PG & E seemed to be willing to cooperate and that it would cost about $6,500 to fence an area about 1/2 the size of a football field. Several dog owners spoke to group about this issue indicatinct the uitp Council Minutes 3 August 22,1995 7• Charter and parameters for Pnrk Development Foaus Qroups • In discussing this topic, members of the City Council suggested examples of the types of things which might be included in a charter and parameters statement for the focus groups. Vice Mayor Jacobs suggested, for example, that one parameter might be to make more of the parks accessible to more people (i.e. providing picnic areas or rest rooms), or one might be not to leave major portions of Revin Moran Park undeveloped. Councilmember Moran suggested, for example, that the Heritage Orchard should remain essentially as is and retain its current purpose. City Manager Peacock indicated that the staff is preparing background data and layouts of the parks and the school play areas using aerial photos to brief the focus groups on the park and school playground system, how heavily they are currently used and what the expressed needs of various segments of the community are from the research done by staff. He indicated that this information should be available by mid-September. Included in this information would be things such as what it would cost to maintain a new rest room at a park or certain other facilities if they were installed in the park. Council agreed to do self guided tours of all facilities once the staff work is complete and then further refine their ideas about the charter and parameters and schedule a further discussion at that time. 8. self-Evaluation of Previous Meetiag The Mayor noted that she had watched a taped broadcast of the last City Council meeting and that the camera would remain focused on one member of the City Council or another for several minutes, rather than on the person speaking. Council asked the City Manager to discuss this with the coordinator at RSAR. 9. Agenep Assignment Reports Councilmember Wolfe reported that the Cities Association by-laws were undergoing revision in the area of selection of officers, that the County Transportation Agency is working on a Mission Statement, and that the SBDC was moving toward the retention of a professional in economic development planning to help with the program effort. Councilmember Moran reported that there was a proposal to make the Emergency Planning Council a more independent agency with budget authority, replacing the Board of Supervisors as the Emergency Planning policy body for the County. There appears to be no objection from the County at this time but the proposal is still in its talking stages. Vice Mayor Jacobs reported that KSAR would be doing more local event, remote productions and that they have developed a training program to develop producers for shows as that is the critical need in creating more local programming. • Mayor Burger reported that the Library JPA tour of all the libraries in the system is now complete, that the JPA is still getting itself organized, having just completed work on establishing its appeals process, that the Chamber of Commerce mini-retreat last week focused on Celebrate Saratoga, and that she has agreed with the new president of the West Valley College Board, Maxine Sanders, to have a joint meeting with the Board on September 12th. BAY AREA RIDGE TRAIL rMC O U N C I L 31 I CALIFORNIA STREET. SUITE 300 SAN FRANCISCO. CALIFORNIA 99104 October 5, 1995 Chairperson City of Saratoga Parks and Recreation Commission 13777 Fruitvale Ave. Saratoga, CA 95071 Dear Chairperson , The Bay Area Ridge Trail Council is dedicated to completing a 400-mile multi-use ridgeline trail connecting over 75 parks and public open spaces encircling San Francisco Bay.l The Ridge Trail will offer recreational opportunities for Bay Area hikers, bicyclists and equestrians. Most Santa Clara County cities and the Board of Supervisors have endorsed the concept of the Bay Area Ridge Trail. After two years of review, the Santa County Trails Plan Advisory Committee completed • an update of the Countywide Trails Master Plan. The update formally incorporates the Bay Area Ridge Trail, the Bay Trail and other regional trails into the County's General Plan. These regional trails will expand recreational and outdoor educational opportunities for over six million Bay Area residents. A joint Parks and Planning Commissions public hearing on the Draft Countywide Trails Master Plan Update is scheduled for November 1, 1995. The Board of Supervisors Public hearing date is scheduled on November 14, 1995 at 7:00 p.m. We ask you to endorse the proposed Santa Clara Countywide Trails Master Plan Update, and to recommend that the Board of Supervisors adopt the General Plan trail amendments which incorporate the Bay Area Ridge Trail. These amendments include a Preamble, Policies and the Trail Routes. Address correspondence to: Supervisor Mike Honda Chair, Board of Supervisors 70 West Hedding St., 10th Floor San Jose, CA 95~~0 Moving forward in mutual cooperation, the County, Cities and other public agencies will ensure a unique trail system that provides multiple benefits for all residents--recreation, transportation and education.

TRAIL PRIORITIES PURPOSE This Countywide Trail System Master Plan is a long-range, visionary guide. It characterizes a pattern of trail routes and trail experiences that are. needed today and that will be needed in the future. However, though all trail routes shown on the Countywide Trail System Master Plan Map serve the public's interest and have been evaluated and justified from a great many viewpoints, a particular interest of the Trails Plan Advisory Committee was to make the implementation of the trail system a strategic one. Not all of the trail routes shown on the Countywide Trail System Master Plan Map and described in Section II will be acquired, developed and open for public use in the next fifteen years. The purpose of identifying trail priorities is to focus attention on those trail routes that present significant opportunities for the general public right now and to help direct the public funds available to the County for trails in a logical fashion. This desire to focus attention on a few trails, through the prioritization process, does not imply that should an opportunity arise (for example, through an interestcd property owner, through the urbanization process, or through the interest of other public agencies) that implementation of any trail shown in the countywide system, regardless of its priority rating, would not represent a positive stcp forward. PRIORITY CRITERIA The initial activity of the Trails Plan Advisory Committee, prior to establishing policies and preparing the trails map, was to determine its own criteria for prioritizing trails that reflected the values of the people and communities in Santa Clara County. The resulting criteria generally havc an urban orientation, emphasizing trails in and near urban areas, that are convenient to access and that appeal to a large number of people. Criteria were drafted by the Committee, reviewed with the general public at workshops, and then finalized. Figure 6 illustrates the results of that process. Nine priority evaluation criteria were identified and divided into three wcightcd groups. • GROUP 1 • Need: as expresscd through public workshops and other community forums; as evaluated based on quantifiable data about existing trail supply, trail use, and projections of future populations; and as considered in terms of identifiable - 50 - Trail Priorities Santa Clara Counir~?rails MastrrPlan 2lprfate Draft Countr~zui~e?rails Master Plant (9ulrJ,1995) "benefits" to the residents of Santa Clara County, includin recreation g , • transportationeducation., and health and safety. - • Compatibility of Trails with Ad'oinin Pri g vate Property: based on the existing uses now on property adjacent to trail routes and on the land use designations shown on the County General Plan Map. • Trail Usefulness: where a trail connects two County parks, links County parks with other public lands, connects two existin trails tom g pletes or extends an existing trail segment, or disperses use away from overused areas. R P2 • Complexity of Land Acquisition: including the numbcr of property owners; availability of ublic lands• re P , p Bence of exisnng easements, and the potential for pending land use changes which could provide opportunities for trail implementation. • Opportunities for a Large Number of Users: if a trail is accessible to residents throughout the County; is located parallel to a transportation corridor; and/or provides access to such fcatures as schools, libraries, parks, or employment, • commercial or retail centers. Safety Concerns: including visibility along the trail; separation from motorized traffic; ability to maintain and patrol; liability protcction for adjacent private property; and availability of emergenry services. O P • Financial Considerations: including costs for acquisition, development, operations, managcment, and monitoring. Also included are opportunities that may arise for funding partnerships; and revenue-gencrating potential. • Need for Trail Settings: to provide for a variety of trail experiences by offering trails in urban, suburban, rural, and remote areas. • Opportunities for a Sense of Remoteness: to have trails in areas where the sights •. and sounds of pcople seem remote, whether or not they are. 1 • - 51 - Trail Priorities Santa Clara County ?rails Master Plan up~are Draft Cvuntywidt ?rails Master Plan (,~uly,1995) PRIORITY EVALUATIONS • Unincorporated County Areas: For trail segments that fall within the County's jurisdiction (i:e. outside Urban Servicc Areas in the County) athree-step proccss was used in applying the Committce's critcria. Those steps werc: Step 1: for individual trail segments, each of the nine priority criteria was assigned a relative rating bctwecn 1 and 3 (with low = 1, medium = 2, and high = 3). Step 2: a cumulative score for oath trail segmcnt was determined by weighting the nine individual ratings assigned in Step 1 according to the three critcria Groups (as shown in Figure 6) using multipliers as follows: • 3x -Need, Compatibility, and Usefulness • 2x -Acquisition Complexity, Opportunity for Large Number of Users, and Safety • lx -Financial Considerations, Setting, and Sense of Rcmotcness Step 3: a maximum of 54 and minimum of 18 points could be assigned to any one trail segment. Individual scgmcnts with a cumulative rating above 45 were assigned a "High Priority"; any trail scgment with a cumulative rating betwcen 40 and 45 was assigned a "Priority" rating. Appendix D identities individual'~prioriry ratings for each trail route within unincorporated Santa Clara County, by segmcnt. Table 1 summarizes the trail segments receiving the highest priority rating in the unincorporated areas of Santa Clara County. • Incorporated Urban Areas: Table 2 summarizes the countywide trails that were identified in staff workshops as panicularly imponant to individual Cities. Generally, but not always, these trails were located within the incorporated areas of the County. Individual Cities in Santa Clara County have not formally prioritized trail routes within thcir General Plans or individual nail master plans. For comparison, a rating is provided that is derived from the Trails Plan Advisory Committee's priority criteria and the system (described above) used to evaluatc trail routes in unincorporated County jurisdiction. r~ - 52 - Trail Priorities LJ ~~ LJ Santa Clam Countrj ?mi(s ~fastrr Plan up~ax Draft Cvunt~unde ?rails 96fasterP(an 17u1y.1995) Trail Mas ~~ Prio FIGURE 6: TRAIL PRIORITY CRITERIA -53- Trail Priorities - High Weighting PriorityCriteria . .Santa Clara Country ?rails Maser Plan update Draft Countytuide ?rails Masher Plan (7uGJ,1995J TABLE 1: SUMMARY OF HIGH PRIORITY TRAILS -UNINCORPORATED COUNTY AREAS HIGH PRIORI TY TRAIL PRO ECTS* Santa Clara MAP TRAIL ROUTE LOCATION RATING*` County KEY RI A Juan Bautista de Anza From: Coyote Creek Co. 48 National Historic Trail Pazk SS Coyote Creek /Ragas To: llagas Creek Creek Trail R3 Benito-Clara Trail From: Santa Teresa Blvd. 48 To: San Martin Ave.• S8 San Marvin Cross-Valley From: Santa Teresa Blvd. 48 Trail To: New Ave. C19 Calcro /Santa Teresa From: McKean Rd. 47 Trail To: Santa Teresa Co.
