4. SUMMARY STATEMENT AND REQUIREMENT FOR COUNCIL ACTION:
At Council's direction,~staff has proceeded with the process for developing a land lease for
construction of privately financed recreation facilities at Pendergast Regional Park. One step of that
process requires a modification to the existing Master Plan for the park, which was originally
approved by Council on April 7, 1993 (as per Resolution No. 2428 - attached).
The proposed modifications to the Master Plan call for an indoor soccer facility to be constructed in
an area previously designated as a future softball field, and for an outdoor batting cage facility to be
relocated onto a site previously designated as an open turf area. It is staff's opinion that the proposed
changes will not generate more traffic or create a higher demand for parking space than the uses
envisioned in the original plan.
These concepts for changes in facility usage received a favorable response during a presentation to
the Pendergast Memorial Committee last spring. The proposed amendments to the park's Master Plan
were discussed and endorsed by the Breanerton Parks and Recreation Commission at its meeting on
January 23, 2001.
8. RECOMMENDATION:
I move to repeal Resolution No. 2428, and to approve Resolution No. 2800, amending the Master
Plan for Pendergast Regional Park to allow for the f~ture develapmen, t of indoor soccer and outdoor
