Parks and Recreation Commission
Minutes of the Meeting of March 15, 2022
Page 2
Centennial Way Trail is a Class I bicycle and pedestrian pathway spanning three miles
from the South San Francisco BART Station to the San Bruno BART Station. The City
constructed and maintains the trail. In late 2020, the City accepted maintenance and
development rights of additional portions of the BART right-of-way, significantly
expanding opportunities for capital improvements and programming along the trail.
In early 2021, the City engaged the landscape design and planning firm, Callander
Associates, to work with the community and various stakeholders to develop a vision
plan to guide improvements and programming along the trail.
The Orange Memorial Park Master Plan was last updated in 2007. Since then, the park
has seen several improvements. An update to the Orange Memorial Park Master Plan
will represent current and planned projects as well as changing demographics and park
programming needs.
Outreach and community engagement for the Centennial Way Trail Master Plan and
Orange Memorial Park Master Plan began in summer 2021. Outreach and engagement
included pop-up events at the park and trail, online and printed surveys, stakeholder
meetings and an open house.
The second round of outreach and community engagement offered plan alternatives for
the park and focus areas of the trail. Feedback on these alternatives was collected
numerous events, virtual stakeholder meetings, as well as through online and printed
surveys available in English and Spanish. A second open house was held at the Fernekes
Building in November 2021. Information about the plan alternatives and opportunities
to engage were advertised through Park and Recreation newsletters and shared among
community and stakeholder groups.
An update of the engagement efforts and plan alternatives were presented to the Parks
and Recreation Commission in November 2021. Feedback received from the
Commission and the public informed preferred plans for opportunities areas and the
draft documents attached to this report.
Comments received this evening will be incorporated into the final document, which
will be presented before the City Council for adoption later this spring.
Deputy Director Vitale shared news that the City had applied for and will be awarded a
grant for a section of the Centennial Trail between Orange Avenue and Spruce Avenue,
based off of this master plan.
Commissioner Camacho requested additional information about a park in alternative
locations in the Sunshine Gardens area. Director Mediati shared that staff is exploring
multiple lot locations within the Sunshine Gardens neighborhood.
Commissioner Burgo requested clarification on the difference between learning garden
and community garden. Nate Ritchie (Callander) explained that the intent of the learning
Parks and Recreation Commission
Minutes of the Meeting of March 15, 2022
Page 3
garden is to provide interpretive elements, and native or pollinating plant species so it's
a little bit more of a learning element whereas a community garden includes private
garden plots for residents to grow their own plants.
Commissioner Firpo shared his concern that the trail isn’t wide enough considering that
the intention is to allow both pedestrian and bicycle access. Nate Ritchie shared that
there is intent to expand the trail to 12 feet of asphalt with two foot shoulders on the
side, where it's currently 10 feet.
Commissioner DeNardi expressed concern about lighting along the nature trail behind
the high school and monitoring of activity along the isolated area. Nate Ritchie shared
that the existing lights would remain with one additional being added in between –
doubling the light output – but concurred this should be further studied. Director Mediati
shared that this is the only segment that is currently surveilled with cameras as part of a
pilot project with the hopes to expand in the future.
Commissioner Uy asked if the pump tracks and skate parks might duplicate uses.
Director Mediati explained that the pump track would be more of a dirt track for BMX
bikes while the skate park elements may contain concrete steps and other features for
navigating skateboards around. Commissioner Uy shared that he felt current skate/bike
areas are under utilized and additional areas would not be as necessary when comparing
to oversubscribed field use. Deputy Director Vitale also shared that this is a conceptual
master plan and as each segment is funded additional community meetings will be
conducted for the final design and construction to determine appropriate elements.
Commissioner Burgo noted that a restroom should be installed along the trail near the
Spruce Avenue intersection.
Chair Lock inquired how these master plans were being synced with the General Plan.
Deputy Director Vitale shared that Capital Projects staff is engaging with the Planning
Department so that the master plans and the General Plan are compatible.
Commissioner Uy inquired about the pickleball courts in the Orange Park Master Plan
and how sound issues may be addressed for nearby residents. Deputy Director Vitale
shared that this was the master planning stage and once funding was sourced for specific
areas, then the details of how to accomplish various aspects would be explored and
incorporated into the actual design. Staff shared that they recently read an article on this
topic as well, and will consider this further.
Commissioner DeNardi inquired about the status of the eucalyptus trees at Orange Park.
Director Mediati expressed that there wasn’t any current plan to remove them, but that
the plans were merely conceptual at this point in time. She further inquired if the stakes
installed throughout the park presently represented the bounds of City property.
Manager Richardson explained that they were just remnants from a recent surveying
project and do not define the bounds of the City’s property.

Commissioner Firpo inquired about the community stage at Orange Park and if it would
be capable of multi-use and include power for movie nights, concerts, and other events.
Deputy Vitale shared that the design was conceptual, but these questions were valuable
and staff is taking notes to reference how the spaces could be utilized.
Commissioner Camacho shared her concerns about limited access, but was overall
supportive of the plan and excited to see it develop over the next 20 years. Commissioner
Burgo and Chair Lock shared in the sentiment.
VIII. Friends of Parks and Recreation:
Acting Manager Cullinan shared that there was a recent Friends meeting, the group was
compliant with their non-profit status, that they are preparing for a membership drive, and
Kimberly Morrison will be assisting with the group going forward.
IX. Beautification Committee:
Director Mediati reported that there is nothing new to report.
X. Items from Commission:
Commissioner Burgo requested discussing a new name for the concert event be added to a
future agenda.
Secretary DeNardi enjoyed the lunar year display and the youth baseball league parade.
Commissioner Uy thanked Greg and Josh for setting up new picnic tables at Sellick Park
and for fixing the tennis court lights.
Commissioner Camacho congratulated staff including Angela, Kelli, Erin, Kimberly, and
Brian on their appointments to new or acting positions. She shared her support for splitting
the Childcare Program.
Commissioner Battaglia participated in and enjoyed the baseball parade and congratulated
the Seniors Connection newsletter for the award.
Vice Chair Firpo echoed the comments of his fellow Commissioners.
Chair Lock congratulated staff and requested a General Plan update to be added to a future
meeting agenda and commended staff and fellow Commissioners on the incremental
changes/updates that are happening because of the planning and conversations discussed.
XI. Items from Staff:

Chair Lock inquired if Commissioners had any questions related to the previously shared
administrative updates. None were shared.

congratulations to staff on their recent placements.

Avenue has been completed, and that tree removals at Westborough Park along the upper

Staff Report
DATE: April 19, 2022
TO: Parks and Recreation Commission
FROM: Angela Duldulao, Acting Deputy Director of Parks and Recreation
SUBJECT: Child Care Master Plan Update
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Parks and Recreation Commission be apprised of the status of the Parks
and Recreation Department’s Child Care Master Plan, review draft recommendations, and provide
feedback to staff.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
As the Commission is aware, understanding the need to plan for the near, mid and long term child
care needs of residents and employers, in the fiscal year 2020/21 operating budget, the City Council
authorized $100,000 in funding to be allocated to the creation of a Child Care Master Plan.
The purpose of the Master Plan is to focus on improving and expanding the reach, quality and impact
of early childhood education programs, child care, and youth services for South San Francisco
residents. The Master Plan will be used as a resource for guiding future operations and developments
of child care centers and programs over the next 10 years.
In May 2021, Parks and Recreation staff selected a consultant, Kathleen White, to assist staff in
crafting a comprehensive Child Care Master Plan. Ms. White has spent decades studying and
working in the education and child care field, most recently serving as a faculty member and
department chair for the Child Development and Family Studies Department at City College of San
Francisco.
On March 15, 2022, staff and Ms. White met with the Commission’s Child Care Master Plan
subcommittee to review a draft executive summary and presentation materials and receive feedback.
On March 16, 2022, staff and Ms. White presented the same materials at a Special City Council
meeting to receive feedback. Ms. White has since incorporated all the relevant feedback into a first
full draft of the master plan that was shared with staff and the Child Care Master Plan subcommittee
on April 1, 2022. This draft is also shared in Attachment 1. Subcommittee member comments
received by April 14, 2022 are summarized in Attachment 2. Staff will review the draft Child Care
Master Plan including key findings, survey results, draft recommendations, and subcommittee

comments for the Commission’s feedback. This input will be incorporated in the next draft of the
Child Care Master Plan, which will be presented before City Council this spring.
Research strongly shows the importance of a quality early education and out-of-school time learning
and socialization experiences for children. Children who receive high-quality early care and
education experiences are more likely to have advanced language, academic, and social skills.
School-age children participating in high-quality out-of-school time programs also tend to have
positive outcomes, including improved academic performance, work habits, and study skills. The
availability of high-quality early care and education programs supports the economic success of
families and of our City. Early care and education are an important economic driver. In light of these
important social and economic benefits, ensuring availability, equity, affordability, and quality is
critical for a vibrant and diverse city.

Comments/Questions from Child Care Master Plan Subcommittee
Regarding the April 1, 2022 Draft of the Child Care Master Plan (CCMP)
(Comments as of April 14, 2022)
This is a partial summary of comments received from the Child Care Master Plan Subcommittee.
It does not include comments to adjust grammar or spelling, nor does it include all editorial
suggestions to improve the presentation of information and data.
• Page 10 – Question regarding the relationship of the CCMP to the General Plan. The text
references CCMP as an addendum to the General Plan and not its own standing document.
• Page 67 – Thoughts on including some local employer starting hourly wages?
Amazon/Starbucks/Costco/grocery? Is the bolded line above roofers/bus drivers/make-up
artists about childcare hourly wages?
• Page 72 – Consider adding language to the recommendations that says “support SSFUSD’s
efforts to…” to highlight the importance of a collaboration between the City and SSFUSD
to make the recommendations successful.
• Page 89, right side column – The “Workforce Investment” section seems better suited to
Section 4, or it might need language to tie it in better to the topic of legislation, policies,
and funding.
• Page 26 – Concern regarding low response rate from Old Town compared to other
neighborhoods like Westborough, and concern regarding ensuring that the families who
truly have the need not be overlooked, since they may not be able to be in touch to express
their child care needs.
Staff Report
DATE: April 19, 2021
TO: Parks and Recreation Commission
FROM: Devin Stenhouse, Recreation and Community Services Supervisor
SUBJECT: Consideration of Movie Night in the Park Film Options
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Parks and Recreation Commission be apprised of plans for this summer’s
Movie Night in the Park series and provide feedback.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The projected dates for the Movie Night in the Park series are Friday, July 15, 2022 and Friday,
August 19, 2022. The July movie will be hosted on the Orange Memorial Park Soccer Field with
access to the Joseph A. Fernekes Building. Like last year, staff will plan on hosting the August
movie at Martin Elementary School ballfield, although permits have yet to be completed. Last year
community members had asked for similar events in the Downtown / Old Town neighborhoods. In
response, staff hosted the second movie of the Movie Night series at the Martin Elementary School
ballfield. Attendance for the August movie was respectable, and the Department received very
positive feedback and gratitude from movie-goers at the conclusion of the event.
The Department is also considering expanding the scope of activities for the July Movie Night this
year in recognition of Parks and Recreation Month. Last year, the Department celebrated a “Field
Day” in which lawn games for children were made available, free hot dogs were distributed, and
free class demonstrations were performed in addition to a variety of other recreation-related
activities that were on display. This year, staff will combine Field Day and Movie Night to make
the event a day-long celebration.
To enhance the participant experience during Field Day/Movie Night in July, the Department will
embrace the City’s Healthy Places for a Healthy City initiative as a theme for the day. Field Day is
projected to feature various activities aimed at promoting healthy lifestyles for visitors (i.e., free
exercise classes, large motor activities for children, health education from vendors, etc.). To stay
consistent with this theme, staff is proposing to feature a movie that follows the same theme of
staying active. Space Jam: A New Legacy (2021) is being proposed for this reason, considering its
strong basketball premise and advocacy for all genders’ participation in the sport. This is also the
only new release film available for licensing that matches the event’s health and wellness theme.
Staff Report

Date: April 19, 2022
Subject: Consideration of Movie Night in the Park Film Options
Page: 2
For the August movie, staff is recommending the movie Encanto (2021). The Parks and Recreation
Department will be supporting and advocating for the City’s Cultures United initiative throughout
the year and will consider implementing diversity and inclusion measures in the production of its
programs, classes, and events. Although Hispanic Heritage Month spans from September 15 through
October 15, the Department would like to acknowledge this diverse group for our August movie
night. Many residents who reside in the Martin Elementary School neighborhood are of
Hispanic/Latinx backgrounds and staff would like to show a movie that will hopefully represent
many of their cultures.
Staff will keep the Commission apprised of the progression of each of these Movie Night events as
production continues. For now, staff would appreciate the Commission’s feedback on the selection
of the featured movie options, below.

SUBJECT: California Parks and Recreation Society District 4 Award Nominations
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Parks and Recreation Commission be apprised of the Department’s
nominations for the CPRS District 4 Awards.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
This year, California Parks and Recreation Society (CPRS) District 4 will honor innovation in
programming and outstanding individuals for their professional and volunteer contributions to the
fields of parks, recreation and human services. The South San Francisco Parks and Recreation
Department is proud to share the award winners who will be honored at the May 5, 2022 awards
dinner in Los Altos.
Distinguished Professional: Kelli Jo Cullinan
Volunteer and Sponsor Citation Award: The Kiwanis Club of South San Francisco
Key to the Community: Senior Connections Newsletter
Distinguished Professional: Kelli Jo Cullinan
The Distinguished Professional Award is District 4’s highest honor in recognition of lifetime
achievement. This award is presented to a professional who has demonstrated leadership and
initiative and has made significant contributions to CPRS and the fields of parks, recreation, and
human services.
The City of South San Francisco is honored to recognize Kelli Jo Cullinan for over 30 years of
excellent service to community members of all ages and abilities and her remarkable leadership
and guidance of her staff and co-workers. As a Recreation and Community Services Supervisor,
Kelli Jo has overseen the Sports, Childcare, and Senior Services program areas, and created the
Full of Fun program for teens and young adults with special needs. Kelli Jo goes above and
beyond for the clients she serves, from personal phone calls checking in to advocating for their

needs. In addition to supporting all community members, Kelli Jo always takes the time to nurture
the growth and development of her staff and create a strong team environment. Kelli Jo’s
enthusiasm and care for community members and fellow employees exemplifies what it means to
be a parks and recreation professional.
Volunteer and Sponsor Citation Award: The Kiwanis Club of South San Francisco
This past year saw the return of many beloved South San Francisco community events, such as
Santa Comes to Town. For the past several years, South San Francisco Kiwanis Club has been an
instrumental partner in the success of this fun holiday tradition. This year, Kiwanis volunteers
filled key roles such as jolly Santa Claus and the event photographers, provided supplies and
printed pictures for every family in attendance, and organized a STEM Winter Wonderland
component. The SSF Kiwanis members are committed to the South San Francisco community,
demonstrated by their continuous volunteer efforts. They are deserving of this year's volunteer and
sponsor citation award.
Key to the Community: Senior Connections Newsletters
Since the start of the pandemic, the Senior Services team quickly pivoted to find ways to keep the
active aging community of South San Francisco engaged and connected. The quarterly newsletter,
previously a subscription-based newsletter, was offered free of cost to all seniors in the
community. The newsletter, "Senior Connections," proved to be a vital resource to the seniors,
going beyond interesting articles to provide crucial resources, recipes, and even entertaining
riddles and brain challenges. Recognizing the positive impact the newsletter makes in the lives of
community members, the senior program staff decided to continue free distribution to over 300
seniors every quarter. South San Francisco's "Senior Connections" newsletter is well-deserving of
this year's Key to the Community award.
Staff Report
DATE: April 19, 2022
TO: Parks and Recreation Commission
FROM: Greg Mediati, Director of Parks and Recreation
SUBJECT: FY2022/23 Operating Budget Update
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Parks and Recreation Commission be apprised of the status of the
Department’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2022/23 operating budget submissions. It is further recommended
that the Commission consider and approve the fee increases recommended by staff.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Each year, the City is required to propose an updated operating budget, which is presented before
the City Council for adoption. As the Commission is likely aware, the City’s fiscal year spans from
July 1 – June 30 of the calendar year. This provides staff with an opportunity to look forward to the
coming fiscal year, and address new or enhanced staffing, departmental reorganization needs, and
changes in supplies and services budgets.
Staff recently submitted several new operating budget requests for FY 2022/23, which have been
reviewed by the Finance Department and City Manager’s Office and will be presented to the City
Council Budget Subcommittee on April 26, 2022, and before the City Council for adoption
thereafter.
Operating Budget Decision Packages
The Parks and Recreation Department’s General Fund budget requests total $516,975 in new
funding for supplies and services and $1,207,577 in payroll and benefits. A summary of the
Department’s requests is shown below.
Payroll Budget Requests
1. Building Maintenance Supervisor ($175,700)
For many years, the Department has petitioned for an additional Building Maintenance
Supervisor to oversee the night shift custodial team. This position has been identified as critical
to oversee custodial maintenance activities, however, with the new Police Station, Library/Parks
Staff Report
To: Parks and Recreation Commission
Date: April 19, 2022
Subject: FY2022/23 Budget Update
and Recreation Center, among other initiatives, this was especially prioritized this year.
Additionally, this position supports City events, and addresses maintenance issues that occur
after business hours and on weekends.
2. Building Maintenance Stationary Engineer ($193,234)
The Building Maintenance Stationary Engineer was authorized by the City Council in
September 2021. At that time, the position was accepted, but funding was not yet allocated.
This will fully fund this position. The Stationary Engineer will be responsible for maintenance
of critical building infrastructure city-wide, including HVAC systems, mechanical equipment,
building technology systems, and will provide field supervision to the Department’s
craftworkers, a journey-level carpentry and trades position.
3. Upgrade Administrative Assistant II to Management Analyst I ($32,970)
This request is to upgrade one of the two vacant Administrative Assistant II positions to a
Management Analyst I. Not only will this position provide a ladder for administrative staff to
enter mid-management, it will enhance the ability of the Department’s Administrative
Division to respond to the increasingly sophisticated technical and financial processes. This
upgrade is funded by the Department’s Common Greens funds.
4. Restoration of Deputy Director ($273,917)
This will reinstate the Department’s Deputy Director position, which was unfunded when Greg
Mediati was appointed as Director.
5. Parks Maintenance Worker Positions for Oyster Point ($365,392)
This budget request will fully fund three park maintenance positions that were authorized, but
not budgeted in September 2021. The positions include: one Lead Park Maintenance Worker,
one Senior Park Maintenance Worker, and one entry-level Park Maintenance Worker. All three
staff will be assigned to the Oyster Point Marina and will be funded by the Oyster Point
Community Facilities District, once revenues are realized.
6. Restoration of Hourly Park Maintenance Workers ($64,039)
This request will reinstate .88 full-time equivalents (FTE) of an hourly Park Maintenance
Worker position. This position was erroneously deleted from the Department’s budget last
fiscal year. This hourly position is responsible for maintenance activities in the Common
Green areas, and is fully funded by the Common Greens funds.
7. Upgrade of a Part-Time Seniors Site Coordinator to Full-Time Community Services Coordinator ($66,676)
This position is critical to the functionality and senior programming at the Roberta Cerri
Teglia Center. The primary functions of this position are to implement a robust offering of
senior programing and coordinate special events. Additionally, this position manages event
budgets, and seeks and executes grants associated with the senior population. Other duties
include scheduling and supervising staff and volunteers, as well as coordinating with Advisory
Boards, agency partners, and neighboring cities.
8. Hourly Summer Learning Support Staff ($14,067)
This request will fund three staff assigned to an afterschool program for the School District’s
Staff Report
To: Parks and Recreation Commission
Date: April 19, 2022
Subject: FY2022/23 Budget Update
Summer Learning Program. This request includes .05 FTE of an hourly Recreation
Coordinator, .075 FTE of an hourly Recreation Leader I, and .15 FTE of an hourly Recreation
Leader III.
9. Upgrade of Cultural Arts Specialist ($21,581)
This request upgrades the existing 0.5 FTE Cultural Arts Specialist position to 0.75 FTE. This
is the only position in the Department that is solely dedicated to the Cultural Arts Program,
and the incumbent has served the City for over 20 years. The additional 0.25 FTE will allow
the Department to carry out tasks that have increased in workload and complexity including
adding a virtual component to exhibits, working collaboratively with other Departments on
related initiatives such as Cultures United and youth poetry, and supporting other programs
that advance racial and social equity. Staff continues to work to fully fund this position as a
full-time position, which hopefully will be realized once the City collects ample revenues from
the recently adopted Public Art Developer Fee.
Supplies and Services Requests
10. New Police Station HVAC Preventative Maintenance ($70,000 – one-time)
This is for funding to maintain the HVAC systems at the new Police Station. This work includes
regular maintenance, system diagnostics, and filter changes. This is a one-time allocation, which
will be revised and funded appropriately based on actual expenses in future years.
11. Building Management System Services ($30,000 – one-time)
This request funds annual service and support needed to monitor the City’s Building
Management System (BMS). The BMS is a computerized system that remotely controls HVAC
units in certain City facilities. This is a one-time allocation, which will be revised and funded
appropriately based on actual expenses.
12. New Police Station Alarm Monitoring ($800 – one-time)
This request funds third-party fire/life safety alarm monitoring, which is required by law. This
is a one-time allocation, which will be revised and funded appropriately based on actual
expenses.
13. New Police Station Fire Sprinkler Maintenance ($4,300 – one-time)
This request funds quarterly and annual fire sprinkler maintenance, which is required by law.
This is a one-time allocation, which will be revised and funded appropriately based on actual
expenses.
14. New Police Station Cleaning Supplies ($5,000)
This funds consumable cleaning products associated with the enhanced size of the new Police
Station.
15. New Police Station Pest Control ($1,200)
This funds ongoing insect and rodent control for the new Police Station.
16. Common Greens Operating Fund Budget Correction ($67,200)
This restores general maintenance funding for the Common Greens, which was erroneously

Date: April 19, 2022
Subject: FY2022/23 Budget Update
deleted in the previous fiscal year. This request is fully funded by the Common Greens funds.
17. Additional Common Greens Operating Funds ($90,000)
Per the direction of the City Council Budget Subcommittee, this allocation will address
deferred maintenance and enhancement projects in the Common Greens. This will be funded
by the Common Greens funds.
18. Design Services for Construction Standards ($50,000 – one-time)
The City’s Planning and Engineering Divisions have requested that the Parks Division create a
standardized packet of construction cut sheets and specifications to reference for developers
when building new projects. There currently are no standard documents and different projects
have varied greatly, impacting consistency on City maintained areas. This document will also
help in creating a consistent landscape palette across all projects in the city giving a unified
and consistent feel to the streetscapes and new building landscapes. This will also allow staff
to have a memorialized document to refer to and hold developers accountable to meet City
standards.
19. Restoration of Funds for CPRS Maintenance Management School ($13,125)
These trainings provide staff development in maintenance specific activities that benefit the
Department, the City, and the employee which results in a better overall work product,
professional development, and staff retention.
20. Activity Guide Design and Printing Cost Escalation ($4,400)
The Department's printing vendor for the activity guide recently increased their fees by 15%
due to inflation and increased cost of living. Additionally, the printer is managing paper and
shipping conflicts which many other printing companies are also struggling with. In 2020, the
Department paid $5,600 per guide on a quarterly basis. This increased to $6,400 per guide in
2021. The Department will be soliciting quotes from other potential vendors to ensure that we
are still getting the most cost-effective, quality service.
21. Restoration of Public Art Allocation ($10,000 – one-time)
Prior to COVID, the Parks and Recreation Department had a dedicated fund for the purchase
of public art. Staff intends to request funding for public art on a year-to-year basis as needed.
Future funding can be provided by the new Public Art Developer Fee, once revenues are
realized.
22. Restoration of Special Event Funding ($10,000)
This will fully restore the Department’s budget for the Halloween Extravaganza and Movie
Night Series.
23. REAL Program Funding Correction ($950)
This budget request is intended to correct a budget reduction that was misapplied to the REAL
Program. This request will correct the $950 budget reduction.
24. Restoration of the Cultural Activities Grant Program ($10,000)
In FY 2018-19, Council approved $10,000 for the Cultural Activities Grant Program, a new
program established to support community organizations and artists who wish to offer free or
Staff Report
To: Parks and Recreation Commission
Date: April 19, 2022
Subject: FY2022/23 Budget Update
low-cost events and activities that will expose the community of South San Francisco to
cultural and recreational activities and programming. The program was well-received by the
community, and staff is requesting ongoing funding to support the program.
25. Enhanced Concert in the Park ($150,000)
This request will secure necessary appropriations needed for the enhanced Concert in the Park
event. City Council has asked staff to enhance the event with vendor booths, somewhat similar
to Day in the Park, but scaled down. Historically, the Department was budgeted $70,000 for
this event. However, to decrease the burden on Departmental staffing, additional portions of
the event will be contracted out.
Fee Increases
New fees and fee increases for the hundreds of classes and programs offered by the Department
must be reviewed by the Parks and Recreation Commission, with a recommendation forwarded to
the City Council for final approval. All City fees are listed in the Master Fee Schedule, which is
posted on the City’s website at www.ssf.net on the Finance Department’s page.
In an on-going effort to recover costs for service, address rising inflation and cost of living, and to
offset the many operating budget requests proposed by the Department and increases in salaries as
a result of union / labor group negotiations, staff is recommending a 5% overall increase on all City
fees. This is fairly modest, considering consumer-price-index (CPI) and cost of living increases have
raised well over 8.0% year over year, which is typically the standard adjustment considered for fee
increases. It must also be noted that while CPI increased by 5% last year, the City continued to take
a similar approach to keep fees affordable by only raising fees by 2.5%. In 2020, no fee increases
were established at all. By not adopting this smaller bite of a cost increase in 2022, it can be expected
that much more substantial cost increases would be needed in 2023, which would be more impactful
to fee payers.
The Department will continue to work with participants to provide scholarships to those in need of
financial assistance and continues to offer payment plans. For years, we have been committed to our
mission of not turning away families from essential recreational, child care, enrichment and
socialization services, and will continue to work collaboratively with community members to
mitigate any financial barriers.
CONCLUSION
The items presented in this report are still in the preliminary stages and may change as the City
Council reviews, discusses and provides direction on the budget. Staff will provide an administrative
update regarding the budget as changes are made. A final summary of the adopted budget can be
provided to the Commission at the July meeting.

CITY OF SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO
INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
DATE: March 17, 2022
TO: Mayor, Vice Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Greg Mediati, Director of Parks and Recreation
SUBJECT: Parks and Recreation Department Update
Mural Opportunity at Alta Loma Park – Council Feedback Requested
In mid-February, Cultural Arts Commissioner Michael DeNatale presented staff with an
opportunity to install a free mural in South San Francisco. Skyline College Associate Professor,
Amir Esfahani, presented to the Cultural Arts Commission’s Urban Art subcommittee and
explained the class’s desire to create their Community Mural Project in South San Francisco
after plans to install a class mural in a nearby city had fallen through. Soon after, staff met with
Professor Esfahani to learn more about the class and their process. Staff reviewed several mural
locations and offered the options of the Sellick Park tennis court retaining wall, Alta Loma
Park baseball field restroom structure, and an alcove off of Airport Boulevard near the Union
Pacific Overcrossing. These locations were selected due to the minimal impact to road and
pedestrian traffic, as well as space for a group of artists to work safely. Professor Esfahani
selected Alta Loma Park as the preferred mural location.
At the regular Cultural Arts Commission meeting on Thursday, March 15 at 6:30 p.m.,
Professor Esfahani will present and receive feedback of his class’s proposed mural design for
the Alta Loma Park baseball field restroom structure. A copy of the proposed design is
available in Attachment 1.
About the Skyline College Mural Class
Professor Amir Esfahani has taught a mural class at Skyline College for the past several years.
The class is funded by a grant that pays for the instructor and supplies, with the intent that the
class complete one mural for the community. Due to the limited term nature of the class and
grant funding, staff is working with a short turnaround time to bring this free mural opportunity
to South San Francisco. The class is made up of about 15 students, several of whom are South
San Francisco residents and include alumni from Alta Loma Middle School, making this
project at Alta Loma Park a very personal work of art. Students have a wide range of artistic
expertise, including very experienced artists. Staff hope that this experience in South San
Francisco will lead to more mural opportunities in the future.

Youth Enrichment Services Update
Expanded Learning and ASES Program Lottery Registration 2022-2023 School Year
Priority registration and the public lottery for the Expanded Learning and ASES Programs took
place through the month of February. Schools served by these programs include the licensed
Expanded Learning Programs at Buri Buri, Monte Verde, Ponderosa, and Spruce Elementary
Schools, and the REAL Programs at Los Cerritos and Martin Elementary Schools. Staff began
enrolling new families into the program for the 2022-2023 school year during the week of March
7, 2022. In addition to currently enrolled families, staff were able to enroll all the graduating
preschoolers and siblings of current participants in the first pass of priority registration. Public
lottery participants who do not fall into a priority category are automatically added to a waiting
list. Staff are now enrolling from the waitlists at each site and are excited to move toward full
enrollment for the 2022-2023 school year.
Summer Camp 2022 Registration
Public registration for the lottery to enroll in Summer Camp opened on Saturday, March 5 and
ends on Friday, March 25. Priority registration, which is extended to children currently enrolled in
the Department’s Expanded Learning and ASES Programs, as well as children of City employees,
opened on Monday, March 7 and closes on Friday, March 18. On the first day of priority
registration, staff received over 150 applications. Staff plan to fully enroll to pre-COVID capacity
for Summer Camp with 100 children at each of the three sites (Orange Park, Terrabay Gymnasium
and Recreation Center, and Ponderosa Elementary School). This year’s camp will still be offered
Parks and Recreation Department Update
March 17, 2022

in three, three-week sessions, unlike the traditional ten, one-week sessions. The three-week session
was a modification made in response to COVID, to allow for more stable cohorts to reduce the
potential for COVID exposures. While staff are feeling optimistic about offering expanded
programming with fewer COVID restrictions, the three-week session more easily allows staff to
scale programming to meet whatever policies may be in place by summer.
91st Annual Easter Egg Hunt
The City of South San Francisco’s 91st Annual Easter Egg Hunt (now referred to as the Easter
Bunny Photo-Hop) will take place on Saturday, April 9 from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The Easter
Bunny will be present for picture taking, several small-scale egg hunts will take place, and each
child will be provided a goodie bag with a few pieces of candy, in addition to the candy-filled eggs
they find during their egg hunt. Like last year, participants will register in advance for a specific
time to visit in 15-minute increments (8:00 a.m., 8:15 a.m., 8:30 a.m., and so on). Resident
registration will begin Monday, March 21 at 6:00 a.m. online and 8:00 a.m. in-person at the
Municipal Services Building. Non-resident registration will begin Monday, March 28 at 6:00 a.m.
This format is different from egg hunts in the past. In the past, three large hunts occurred: one hunt
for children 2 years and younger, another for children 3 years to 5 years, and the final for children
7 years and older. At least 75 children in each age group would search for eggs within the same
area at the same time. With respect to COVID-19, the Department implemented a new format last
year to decrease the number of children who were searching simultaneously. Up to six families
will participate in a hunt during each of the 15-minute time slots instead of the dozens of children
searching at the same time.
Hatch Realty Group (HRG) will be a sponsor for the event this year (as they have for the past
several years). HRG will provide a light breakfast for volunteers and staff prior to the start of the
event and provide approximately 300 bags for children to use during their egg hunts.
The Easter Bunny Photo Hop has a dedicated page in the Spring Activity Guide and has been
promoted in newsletters, on CivicRec, and the Department’s social media accounts. As a result,
the Department is fielding several questions from the public on how to register, what to expect,
and other inquiries. Based on this response, we are anticipating registration will fill quickly and
we look forward to a successful event.
Cultural Arts Commission Youth Art Show 2022
The Cultural Arts Commission plans to present its 2022 Youth Art Show as an in-person event,
with an added virtual component. It is scheduled to take place on April 29 and 30 at the Municipal
Services Building. The theme is Celebrating Diversity in conjunction with April’s highlight of
Diversity Month. See attached for entry details, which are also posted at www.ssf.net/culturalarts.
The anticipated highly-attended Youth Art Show has been regularly included as one of the four art
shows sponsored by the Cultural Arts Commission. For 19 years it was a popular collaboration
between the Unified School District and the Commission, and featured hundreds of artworks in
Parks and Recreation Department Update

various media. In 2020, the 20th presentation was abruptly cancelled due to the COVID-19
pandemic. In 2021, a successful all-virtual exhibit was presented through the Parks and Recreation
Department. This year, due to ongoing COVID challenges at the school district, the event will
again be presented through the Parks and Recreation Department.
Spring 2022 Swim Lesson Lottery
Swimming lessons for the spring 2022 session began on Tuesday, March 29. Being short-staffed
due to COVID, the Aquatics Program can only offer a limited number of classes. To provide a fair
and equitable registration process for spring lessons, Acting Recreation Supervisor Brian Noce
created a lottery for participants who were enrolled in the winter 2022 session, which was supposed
to start in January and was canceled due to the high impact of the Omicron variant on COVID
exposures. The Aquatics Program has been able to accommodate 240 participants. Staff’s goal for
summer 2022 is to offer enough classes to accommodate over 900 participants for swimming
lessons. The Aquatics Program has received several new swim instructor applicants over the past
few weeks, and staff hope to hire additional swim instructors in the coming months.
Youth Baseball Celebration Recap
The annual Youth Baseball Celebration returned after a three-year hiatus due to inclement weather
and COVID. On Saturday, March 12 at Alta Loma Park, 25 teams, coaches, and family members
joined in to celebrate the start of baseball season in South San Francisco. The league consists of
different age divisions from rookies to majors plus a special needs team named the Seals.
Sports Coordinator, Bill Stridbeck, emceed the event, which started with a parade of the teams
around the field with many members of City Council, Parks and Recreation Commissioners, and
other City officials in attendance to help support this annual event. Mayor Nagales gave his
opening day remarks and presented Woody Rael with a certificate of achievement for his many
years as the president of the league. Parks and Recreation Commission Chair, Bill Lock, also spoke
to the attendees and thanked everyone for their support and the organization of the league. Woody
was given another achievement award for his years of service by the San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors, presented by Supervisor Canepa.
After Woody gave his final comments, Mayor Nagales, a member of the South City High School
Baseball Hall of Fame, threw a strike during his first pitch of the season. Staff look forward to this
event again next year.

Alta Loma Park Restroom StructureMural Proposal
Parkside Wall Concepts:Patterns on the right side of the wall are taken from Ohlone basket weaving designsLandscape is a simplified bay shoreAnimals in the landscape will be simple white and black and are animals sacred to the Ohlone people. We will be adding more animals to this landscape.The Orchids are a representation of McClellen Orchids history in the areaAlta Loma text gives a large view of the park name as well as a great place for people to take photos/promotte the park.
Restroom Wall Concepts:One of our student was researching the transcommunity in the Ohlone tribe and found several LGBTQ poets and artists.She wanted to use colors like blue, pink, and white to represent the trans/non-binary commu-nities.We enlarged the ohlone pattern on the parkside wall and made the colors variations of blue, pink, and white with a purple background. We thought this would be conceptually appropriate on the face of the restrooms, which have and continue to be a contraversial issue.We also would like to continue the flowers around to this side, which could represent any-thing from new life to death, or from purity to passion, fertility, etc.
Path Wall Concepts:For this wall we let student alumni Ju Young Ku design a concept using his own art. Jay is actually an alumni of many of the schools in South City and went to Alta Loma Elementary. So we thought this would actually be a perfect representation of what an Alta Loma Alumni can do and a true South City StoryArtist Statement:My art is a self portrait. It's a collection of (conscious and unconscious) preferences from subjects, themes, messages that are worthy of being made into art to ingredients that make up the art such as lines, shapes, colors, symbols, techniques etc. and just as importantly, what is fun for me to draw. It is a collection of images and symbols that represents my experiences as a Korean American Immigrant. I’m sorting images that left an impression on me as a child growing up in the countryside of Korea, selecting things that represent my experience during the immigration process and orga-nizing them together to represent what I have become in regards to my ethnic identity. The process of observing, analyzing and filtering various aesthetic and symbolic preferences is an attempt at trying to better un-derstand my inner self.
Vending Wall Concepts:The colors of the lines represent the history of the city. The color lines and the Sign Hill in the top form a pyramid that’s been built in layers, like the ones the native Mexicans built:•The black, white and brown lines represent theOhloneRamaytush people who lived in the area.• Red, Yellow and red represent the Spanish con-quest.• Green, white and red represent the Mexican flagand the Alta California.• Blue, white and red represents the US and its inter-vention in Mexico. It also represents the idea of theManifest Destiny.• Navy and gold represent the navy and the people who built ships and supplies forWWII.• Orange represents the California poppy flower.•the green lines represent the hills that surround the city.And• The blue line represents the city being close to the water.The cloud to the right represents all the ethnicities, backgrounds, cultures, traditions,and religions of the diverse population of South San Francisco.There’s also the sun representing the brightness of the people working on biotech-nology and science for the better of humanity.We also have a eucalyptus tree in the top right corner. Although, eucalyptus is not anative tree of the area but it’s one that we can see all around and has become astaple of the city.

Parks Division Update
Miller Parking Garage Breezeway
The improvement project at the Miller
Avenue Parking Garage Breezeway
between Grand Avenue and Fourth
Lane has been completed. The project
created a paved ADA-compliant
surface in a previously vacant lot. The
Granitecrete paving material is a blend
of concrete mixed with decomposed
granite, which gives a firm yet
permeable surface for programming
and passive uses.
Staff also plan to add picnic tables in a
fenced storage area that can be pulled out when needed. This project has created a much more open
and inviting experience to this breezeway and will allow for the site to be programmed for future
events.
Old Grand Avenue Breezeway Rehabilitation
The breezeway between Grand Avenue and Third Lane adjacent to Starbucks is also scheduled to
be improved in the coming weeks. Work will include removal of the existing plant material,
mounded landscaped areas, and hardscape which is cracked and aged. The breezeway will then be
repaved with a more linear concrete paving pattern which will improve line of sight and safety.
Art pavers, which were salvaged from a construction project on Haskins Way, will also be
embedded in the concrete pathway. Once paving is complete, Parks Division staff will replant the
landscaped areas on either side of the walkway and hang string lights from posts placed along the
edges. The trump de l'oeil art panels on the adjacent walls will remain in place for the time being,
until their disposition is better known. They are in poor condition, and may not be salvageable,
however staff continues to study this.
Tree and shrub removals began March 23, with the remainder of demolition set to begin the week
of March 28. The breezeway will be closed intermittently during this work. The nearby businesses

and the Chamber of Commerce have been notified of this work, and detour signage will be posted
at either side of the breezeway and in the nearby parking lot.
A plan of the improvements is attached to this memo with the following symbology:
1. Gray areas noted on the plan with stippled textures are new concrete pathways.
2. Magenta squares are the art pavers (photos of them installed on the Bay Trail at Haskins
Way are below).
3. Yellow lines are string lights affixed to steel posts.
4. Green symbols are low-lying shrubs and other refreshed plant material.
Art pavers to be installed in the breezeway
Westborough Park Improvements
At Westborough Park, staff have been working on various projects including tree removals and
turf renovation at the upper baseball field. The tree removals are being performed in advance of a
pathway rehabilitation project that is scheduled to occur this summer. Unfortunately, many large
growing trees were planted near the pathway many years ago and their roots have caused
significant damage to the pathway. The pathway work will impact these tree roots causing tree
mortality and compromising tree structural integrity; therefore, they are being removed prior to
the work to remove tripping hazards. Appropriate replacement trees will be installed following the
pathway work.
Parks and Recreation Department Update
March 24, 2022

Parks staff have also been working on improving the turf at Westborough Park. Earlier in the year,
staff used a klopping-hardie tractor implement on the entire outfield area. This tool levels uneven
surfaces and knife aerates turf, which helps stimulate grass growth and remove weeds. After the
aeration, the turf was allowed to rest for four weeks to allow for regrowth. Staff are currently top-
dressing the outfield. This work consists of spreading compost via a tow behind soil broadcaster
that spreads the compost evenly. The compost settles into low and bare spots, which further helps
level out the playing surface. Grass seed will then be applied to fill in any bare areas.

Shinkyu Shotokan Karate Tournament - Sunday, April 10
The Department’s Shinkyu Shotokan Karate Tournament will take place on Sunday, April 10, at
10:00 a.m. at the Terrabay Gymnasium and Recreation Center. The event is for pre-registered
participants only and eligible for karate students of all ages. Seventy-five participants are expected
to register. Although this tournament has traditionally hosted up to 10 karate dojos from all over
the Bay Area in the past, this tournament will host no more than three dojos due to the COVID
pandemic. Students from the two other dojos will be invited to participate along with the City’s
Shinkyu Shotokan Karate dojo in up to three different events: singles kata, team kata, and kumite.
Shinkyu Shotokan Karate lead-instructor, Sue Miller, is taking the lead in planning and organizing
the event. Sensei Miller has been a karate instructor for the City of South San Francisco for almost
30 years. Before the pandemic, she led nine karate classes per session and hosted two promotions
and two karate tournaments per year. She is back to teaching nine classes per session again. She
hosted the first karate promotion since the pandemic in November 2021, and this will be the first
karate tournament to take place since October 13, 2019. This progression reflects the popularity of
the Shinkyu Shotokan Karate Program. The Department currently has over 150 registered
participants in the spring 2022 classes compared to 63 students in spring 2021. At the conclusion
of the tournament, Sue Miller will recognize stand-out students by presenting with them with
trophies and awards.
Councilmembers who would like to attend the tournament may rsvp to Recreation Supervisor
Devin Stenhouse at [email protected] or (650) 829-3817.
Parks and Recreation Receives $92,000 San Mateo County Summer 2022 Enrichment Grant
The Parks and Recreation Department Youth Enrichment Services (YES) Program received a grant
from the San Mateo County Summer 2022 Enrichment Program in the amount of $92,940. The
Department will present this grant at an upcoming City Council meeting for formal approval and
acceptance. The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors approved $3.3 million to create this grant
program to support summer programs for school age children. The funds can be used to:
Parks and Recreation Department Update
March 31, 2022
Page 2 of 2
• Expand access to summer enrichment programs for low income and vulnerable students;
• Support the social-emotional wellbeing of students to mitigate the setbacks and hardships
associated with COVID-19; and
• Provide opportunities for students to re-inspire and propel learning to counterbalance
learning loss attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic and distance learning.
The YES Program will use this funding to provide 30 students the opportunity to attend summer
camp at one of the Department’s three summer camp locations at Orange Memorial Park, Terrabay
Gymnasium and Recreation Center, and Ponderosa Elementary School. Staff will first be
outreaching to the families who attend the REAL After School Program at Los Cerritos and Martin
Elementary Schools. If there are still spaces remaining, staff will then work with the school district
to identify children who will most benefit from attending summer camp.
The grant will allow the YES Program to enhance summer camp curriculum by adding an assembly
each week. Some of the topics these assemblies will include are science, character development,
diversity, friendship, and anti-bullying. The assemblies will be provided by a variety of
organizations including Young Audiences for Learning, Mad Science Bay Area, and Mobile Ed
Productions.
Finally, this funding will provide for additional staff training. Staff will be contracting with two
organizations, Playworks and the California School-Age Consortium. Training will include topics
on Building Relationships with Youth and Children, Group Management, and Power of Play. Staff
will also be working with the County to have all of YES Program employees certified in Mental
Health First Aid.

Grand Avenue Breezeway Improvements
The breezeway next to 329 Grand Avenue is currently undergoing a much-needed renovation. This
project has razed all previous amenities at the site and will see the installation of a 20-foot wide
ADA compliant walking path with artistic pavers set in the concrete at select locations.
Additionally, there will be a three-foot planter flanking either side of the concrete walking path.
Within these planters, 16-foot-tall steel posts will be installed to hang string lights overhead. Once
the paving and post installation is completed by the contractors, Parks staff will work to install
irrigation, plant material and string lights. This project is funded by Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) funding, with assistance from the Economic and Community Development
Department.

Avalon Memorial Lot Pathway Replacement
On April 4, milling and replacement of the walking paths at Avalon Memorial Lot began. These
pathways became unsafe over the years from tree roots and irrigation degrading the asphalt. This
project will replace these pathways with new header boards and an asphalt path that is ADA
compliant. All residents adjacent to the park were sent construction notices in advance of the work.
The project is anticipated to be completed by April 15. This project is also funded by CDBG
funding.
Improving Public Places Committee Planting Event
On April 2, the Improving Public Places Committee and the Parks Division gathered for a small
planting event on the corner of Westborough Boulevard and West Orange Avenue. This event
consisted of weeding and planting over 200 perennial pollinators that will add a splash of color to
this prominent corner. The species chosen will also provide food and habitat for pollinating insects
and birds.
