PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
At recent meetings on February 15 and March 15,2005, the City Council discussed possible future park
and public facilities in the Camp Parks Project Area. The discussion centered around the requirement to
provide a certain amount of neighborhood and community park space to serve the residents generated by
the project as well as the City's desire to have additional space provided to accommodate a unique
facility, public space, or community amenity.
At these two meetings, Councilmembers indicated an interest in having the eventual Camp Parks project
plan incorporate a centrally-located park space that can serve as a focal point for community events and
festivities, provide a geographical link between the western and eastern portions of Dublin, provide a
grand entry into the project site, and provide a unique space tor a range of programming opportunities.
However, the exact form, size, and function of this public space and the amenities contained within it is
still to be determined. On March 15, 2005, the City Council directed Staff to solicit a consultant to
determine what type of uses might be desirable for this unique space as well as the amount of space (land
and building, if appropriate) needed to accommodate the use. The City Council directed Staff to seck a
consultant to conduct research on recreational and civic amenities which currently exist in the greater Tri
Valley area and to also identifY facilities that are not currently available and might be appropriate for
Dublin.
Staff issued a Request for Proposals to fums who conduct this type of feasibility analysis and received
three proposals. After reviewing the scope of services and budget for each proposal and interviewing the
firms, Staff concluded that Moore Iacofano Goltsman, Inc. (MIG) was the firm best suited for the contract
due to their experience conducting feasibility studies as well as their expertise in developing a variety of
unique public spaces and facilities.

of Dublin and surrounding communities in an effort to understand the community in relation to its
surroundings, the current public facility requirements and Park Master Plan, and the financial

that are emerging with regard to community facility recommendations.

connected to the particular demographics as well as trends and needs in the City of Dublin. MIG
proposes to complete a targeted set of stakeholder interviews to identifY a range of social issues
and needs that a new facility would address. The intervicws would explore broad arcas such as the
need for youth devclopment, health and fitness, and art and cultural education. MIG will conduct
up to twelve (12) interviews with individuals or representatives from stakeholder groups (e.g.,
County social services, school counse]ors, community and recreation leaders) for input on current
community social issues and perceived needs.

rcgion and in other target markets to assess trends and successcs in unique community facility
development and operations, focusing on development that targets social and recrcation needs to
those identificd for Dublin. They will evaluate the regions' community facilities including
facilities such as arboretun1s, children's museums, zoos, destination recreation facilities, cultural
facilities, large scale park components and other applicable target facilities as identified in the
community profile of needs. The research will include a review of the facilities or park elements,
their construction cost, operating cost, and revenuc generation potential. MIG will document the
facility types and locations, size rcquirements, ballpark facility construction costs and operational
budgets.
· Summarize and Present. MIG will prepare a summary report with accompanying tables, charts
and illustrations to sun1marize the results of all research activitics. It will include a description of
current and projected demographics along with implications for specialized facility considerations.
MIG will present the final report to the City Council for their review and consideration.

community facility recommendations. MIG will review the draft Community Profile and preliminary
findings with City staff and discuss facility research targers to compliment the Dublin community.
Task 4: Research on Facility Trends and Models
:MIG will conduct research in. the Tri Valley area, the Bay Area region and in other target markers to
assess trends and successes in unique community facility development and operations. We will be
focused on development that targets social and recreation needs similar to those identified in Task 4
for Dublin. We will evaluate the regions community facilities including facilities such as arboretums,
children's museums, zoos, destination recreation facilities, cultural facilitie s, large scale park
components and other applicable targer facilities as identified in the community profile of needs.

operatin.g cost, and revenue generation potential. MIG will document the facility types and
locations, facility space requirements, indicating facility construction costs and operational budgers.

Ml;};4 14~'Z3
City will provide revisions to MI G as one (1) copy of collated comments. These revisions will be
incorporated into the Final Report.
Task 6: City Council Presentation
MIG will coordinate with City staff to prepare a presentation of the Recreational and Civic Facilities
Assessment Report to the City Council. This meeting will provide an opporrunity for the Council to
review the plan, ask questions of staff and the consultant team and provide comments and direction.
Optional Task
Socia/Issues Scoplng Interviews
While the City has specified public involvement is not an important part of this research task, MIG
suggests the facility research be grounded and connected to the particular demogra phics as well as
trends and needs in the City of Dttblin. MIG proposes to complete a targeted set of stakeholder
interviews to identifY a range of social issues and needs that a new facility would address. The
interviews would explore broad areas such as the need for youth development, health and fitness,
and art and cultural education. This preliminary range of issues would help inform the facility
research targets.
MIG will conduct up to rwelve (12) interviews with individuals or representatives from stakeholder
groups (e.g., County social services, school counselors, community leaders, and local CBO's) for
input on current community social issues, and perceived needs. Interviews will be conducted by
telephone. MIG will develop an interview que$!i onnaire for staff review and work with City staff to
identifY appropriate stakeholders. MIG will then provide a summa.ty of findings to City staff and
incorporate the findings in the summary report.
