") TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Parks, Beaches and Recreation Director FEB 121990 SUBJECT: CITY PROPERTY - 4210 RIVER AVENUE Recommendation: Retain the R-2 zoning and determine that the subject property is not needed as a part of the City parr system. Background: In July of 1989 the subject City -owned R-2 residential lot of 30' x 100' was determined by the City Council as desirable to be placed on the market for sale purposes. In order for this to occur the matter required a ballot measure to be voted on by local residents. The electorate failed to authorize the property to be sold by the City. At their meeting of January 9, 1990, the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission reviewed the issue with the objective of determining the value of adding the subject parcel to our park system. By a 5-2 vote, the Commission recommends to the City Council that the parcel not be identified as a park. As there is an existing park in the close proximity to the 4210 River Avenue property, the Commission could not identify compatible or desirable recreation uses for the property. Other possible non -recreational uses were felt to be beyond the scope of the responsibilities of the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission. A:�'a Ronald A. Whitley
