BACKGROUND: After an extensive public notification process, the PRCS Commission received and reviewed public input regarding the Fox Hills Park Basketball Court Improvement Project (PZ-960) at both the December 4, 2012 and February 5, 2013 Commission meetings. This Project was funded and approved by the City Council during the Fiscal Year 2012/13 Budget Hearings.Atthe February 5, 2013 meeting, the Commission recommended that staff resurface the basketball court and install Hoop #5 (Attachment) and a hoop lock, with the stipulation that the Project receive a six month review by the Commission. DISCUSSION: In May 2013, the Fox Hills Park Basketball Court was resurfaced and re-striped anda new adjustable fiberglass basketball backboard with hoop (Hoop #5) was installed. The hoop locks are also in use at the Court. In preparation for tonight’s review of the Project, the Park Patrol logs for the months of June, July, August, September, October and November 2013 were examined for reports of unruly behavior, excessive noise, patron disputes and/or patron complaints related to the installation of Hoop #5 and any disruption that it may have caused. None of these types of reports were found. For the Commission’s information, the undesirable patron behavior at the Park (unrelated to the Basketball Court) was limited to six City of Culver City, California Agenda Item Report reports of smoking in the Park and one report of drinking in the Park. Also during this six month period, there was one report of an unspecified injury and one report of an unspecified complaint. Therefore, to the best of staff’s knowledge it appears that the installation of Hoop #5 has not negatively impacted Fox Hills Park patrons or the surrounding neighborhood. FISCAL ANALYSIS: There is no fiscal impact associated with the discussion of this Agenda Item.
