DISCUSSION: Background: Eagle Scout candidate, Peter Gerhardt, has requested permission install a flag pole, near the Little League Field, at Paloma Creek Park. Previously, a flag pole had been erected at the same site by Atascadero Little League in memory of former Atascadero Little League player, Jared Cunningham. The flag pole has since broke and was removed years ago. Mr. Gerhardt plans to install a new flag pole at this same location. Mr. Gerhardt will make a brief presentation about the proposed project. Staff supports the approval of this project and will direct the Scout to coordinate his work with City of Atascadero Public Works staff. Prior to construction, all appropriate permits will be required. Conclusion: Staff recommends that the Parks and Recreation Commission Parks recommend approval of a proposed project to install a flag pole at Paloma Creek Park. FISCAL IMPACT: All costs related to this project will be covered through donations solicited by the Eagle Scout candidate. ALTERNATIVES: None. ATTACHMENT: Project Description Peter Gerhardt Proposed Eagle Project Project Description I will be tearing out the foundation of the old flag pole from the memorial for Jared Cunningham in Paloma Park. I will be replacing the flag pole as well as placing lights at the base of it. This will include an aluminum flag pole that is 30' feet tall. I will be working with Tom Jamason, lead Parks and Recreation Maintenance Worker for the city of Atascadero. I will need to obtain donations for the flag pole, as well as the lights at the bottom. If approved I will begin by tearing out the old cement setting and the stump of the flag pole. Next I will replace the flag pole with a new one and put the donated lights at the bottom of the brick structure, the base of the flag pole. What Group Will Benefit From This Project? The users of the Paloma Park, as well as the family members of Jared Cunningham, and the Atascadero Little League. If possible they and I would like to have the flag pole up for their opening day on March 13. How Will These Groups Benefit? The present state of the flag pole takes away from the beauty of the park, as well as being a detriment to the memorial of Jared Cunningham. It was Jared Cunningham's death that instituted the law that any driver under 18 must hold a driving permit for at least six months before getting a license. Also the Atascadero Little League will have a Flag Pole for their ceremonies and games. Safety Precautions 1. I will have at least one first aid kit at the worksite 2. Two adults will be present whenever volunteer scouts are working. 3. If the need for power tools arises an adult who is trained to run the appropriate tool will run it. 4.

DISCUSSION: Background: Charles Paddock founded the Zoo at Atascadero Lake Park in 1955. He was the County Park Ranger at the time, and was very involved in the community, including serving as a Boy Scout Leader. Mr. Paddock initially took in sick and injured animals that could not be returned to the wild and rehabilitated them. His collection grew into a menagerie that eventually evolved into the accredited Zoo the City operates today. City Council Member Bob Kelley has brought forward a proposal to have a statue created in honor of the late Charles Paddock, to pay tribute to his significant contributions to the community of Atascadero. It is suggested that the statue be located in the new entry plaza of the Charles Paddock Zoo, after construction is complete. Mark Greenaway, local artist, designed the life-size statue which is proposed to be constructed of bronze, with a concrete and granite base. An updated drawing of the proposed statue is included (Attachment A). The Parks and Recreation Commission reviewed and discussed this item at the February 18, 2010 meeting. No recommendation could be made at that time as the Arts in Public Places Policy was under review by the City Council. On February 23, 2010, the City Council approved the revisions to the Arts in Public Places Policy. Attached is a copy of the revised Policy (Attachment B). City and Zoo staff supports the efforts by Council Member Kelley and others to honor and remember Mr. Paddock. The Parks and Recreation Commission will hold a Public Hearing to receive public comment and evaluate the statue under the revised Arts in Public Places Policy. The Commission shall make a final recommendation to the City Council. Some of the primary concerns that the Commission must weigh when reviewing the artwork are: • Is the artwork appropriate for the location and any themes that may exist? • Is it in character with the community, the specific location, and in good taste for a publicly owned space? • Are the materials and size of the artwork suitable for the location? • What will the costs to the city be of the proposed artwork? (If any) • Can the proposed statue be reasonably maintained by the City without considerable additional expense? • Can the artwork be easily vandalized? • What are the concerns of the public about the proposed artwork? Based upon the considerations above, the Commission may recommend to the City Council to approve, deny of modify the proposed statue of Charles Paddock. FISCAL IMPACT: The project will be funded through community donations. Maintenance costs are to be determined by input from the artist.

Upon decending the ladder, into the interior, there's numerous historic information for viewing, including dive papers from test drives off Hawaii, photos, framed newspaper clippings and other historical items. Analysis: Lloyd Reeves is proposing to use the replica Submarine for a variety of rental and tour activities, including but not limited to: • Tours (not for underwater viewing) • Utilized for local fundraisers • School educational trips • Special events Lloyd Reeves is requesting a 90 -day "trial period", from mid-April to mid-July if the water level of the lake permits. Tours of the replica Submarine would be approximately 15 — 20 minutes and the cost would be similar to rental of paddleboats, $5 for kids and $10 for adults, with Submarine Veteran's being free. Mr. Reeves is estimating that he will take a loss on this with the cost of the crane placing and removing it, as well as the insurance coverage fees. His hope is that it will attract visitors to the Lake Park, thus increasing paddleboat business and business for the surrounding area. Currently, the City's Municipal Code does not allow for boats with a motor greater than 1 horsepower. The submarine has an electric motor and is rated by watts. It is likely equivalent to 7 or 8 horsepower. Modification to the Municipal Code would be required in order to permit such a vessel to operate in Atascadero Lake. Mooring of the vessel would be just off the dock area in the Lake. A primary question would be, "is the submarine conforming with the character of the Lake Park?" Conclusion: City staff is requesting that the Parks and Recreation Commission review the request by Lloyd Reeves to place a replica Submarine at Atascadero Lake, and recommend either approval on trail basis, or denial of the request. FISCAL IMPACT: None related to the trail installation. All expenses related to this proposal would be the responsibility of Lloyd Reeves. The City would benefit from an undetermined increase in shared rental proceeds from the submarine. ATTACHMENTS: A. Letter of Request by Lloyd Reeves B.

Atascadero Municipal Code Section s44.org Chaffin & Reeves, P.O.Box 689, Atascadero, Ca (805)441-7463 Jan. 15th 2010 Proposal for Lakeside S-44 Submarine Tours (1) Description: S-44 is a 1/4 scale replica of a 1928 US Submarine that saw service in WWII. The S -Class submarines were considered obsolete but were used anyhow. Their crews had it a lot tougher than the more modern fleet subs of the time. At the end of WWII all S -Class subs were scrapped with this replica being the closest you will find to one. Like the original it is silent electric powered. We showed this boat once in the Lake parking lot and it was a hit. When you descend the ladder into it you find more historic information including, dive papers from test dives off Hawaii, photos of it before and during WWII, framed newspaper clippings of it and a original telegram sent to the parents of one of the crew when the Japanese sunk it. We have toured the country with it including a trip to Reno for the US Sub Vets convention. We do "Tolling of the Bell" services with it. It has also used by the Monarch Grove PTA as a fund raiser and we do tours for public school history classes at no charge. More info is available at: www.s44.org (2) 90 day trial: I would like to try it from mid April to mid July if the water level of the Lake permits. (3) Costs: would probably shorten the trips to the 15 - 20 minute range and keep the cost to the same as the pedal boats $5.00 for kids and $10.00 for adults. Submarine Vets are always free. I do not expect ticket sales will even start to cover the cost of the crane to put it in and pull it out let alone the insurance tab on it. So I figure to have a 2k - 3k loss, however it does draw a lot of attention which should boost attendance at the Lake and help our pedal boat business. Thanks! Lloyd Reeves BEST SHOW -AND -TELL EVER. REPLICA SUB VISITS MORRO BAY History students Bethany Campos, left, Richard Howard and Megan Hansen climb aboard Lloyd Reeves' replica submarine Tuesday outside Morro Bay High School. Wynn Reeves couldn't have asked for a better world histo- ry project than the one directing students to bring or make an arti- fact from World War II. Fortunately for the Morro Bay High School sophomore, in 2002 her father, Lloyd, had built a quarter -scale replica of an Sclass submarine that saw action during the war. On Tuesday, Lloyd Reeves trailered the sub to the high school to give the students an up -close look, while at the same time shar- hrg details of the real' history. The vessel was the first American sub to sink a Japanese heavy cruis- er and recorded two more kills be- fore being sunk itself off the Aleu- tian Islands. Lloyd Reeves, right, helps students onto his replica of the S-44. The 42 -foot vessel is seaworthy, and Reeves has sailed It to Catalina Island, among other places. Though it looks like the original S-44, this model is actually a surface craft, and it is not meant to go below the water line.
