Save the Heart of Huskisson, Jervis Bay - Community Campaign presentation to ...HeartofHuskisson
This document summarizes a campaign to acquire an empty block of land in Huskisson, known as the "RSL Carpark Block", and turn it into a public space. Key points:
- There is strong local and worldwide support through an online petition of over 3,000 signatures to acquire the land and protect the ocean views.
- Acquiring the land would realize the area's tourism potential by creating an active community/cultural space. It could include an outdoor venue, park, or amphitheater.
- Developing the space could generate revenue and be a valuable legacy for the region's tourism industry into the future. Funding suggestions include joint funding from various government levels or loans.
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board is actively assembling riverfront properties that will, in time, become developed parkland as envisioned by RiverFirst and the Above the Falls Regional Park Master Plan. Often, the properties have continuing commercial uses or are otherwise not ready for park development.
The Park Board annually sets aside funds to help manage the properties. However, it’s a struggle to implement a successful toolkit of simple yet impactful management strategies that demonstrate good stewardship, communicate positive messages and provide compelling community value. As a result, they often appear abandoned, don’t communicate positive messages to the public and provide little functional value.
The Dept. of Landscape Architecture at the University of Minnesota College of Design's RA-In-Practice program through the Minneapolis Parks Foundation has developed a policy framework and conceptual approaches to managing properties that celebrate them as meaningful public spaces with minimal capital investment.
This strategy was prepared over 2015-2016 with these Research Assistants: Leslie Johnson, Han Do and Chris Tallman.
This document discusses governance and public participation in Provincetown. It notes that the traditional Town Meeting process is seen as dysfunctional, inefficient, and unpredictable.

The goal is a process that builds common understanding and reinforces community values rather than emphasizing differences. An example from Oregon uses a community information model to engage the public on the front end of decision-making.

SB 69 embraces the spirit of the Governor's local control funding formula but increases accountability and modifies some aspects. It agrees with the goals of making funding more equitable and focused on disadvantaged students, while providing flexibility. However, it addresses issues like ensuring adequate funding for all districts and that supplemental funds target stated student groups. The Senate proposal differs from the Governor's in areas like base grants, supplemental grants, and accountability measures, and it would take effect a year later.
The Governor proposes replacing the state's existing K-12 funding system of revenue limits and categorical programs with a new Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). The LCFF would consolidate most existing programs into a streamlined formula providing school districts and charter schools with a uniform base rate per pupil for four grade spans. The base rates would be supplemented for students from low-income families, English learners, foster youth, and those attending districts with high concentrations of such students. The proposal establishes long-term target funding levels and would phase in the rates over multiple years, providing $1.6 billion in additional funding for 2013-14. While removing most spending requirements, the new system aims to simplify funding, link it to student needs

District 5 United is a community organization that represents District 5 in San Jose, California. Its bylaws establish the organization's name, boundaries, vision, mission and goals. The bylaws describe the leadership structure including officers, a steering committee and subcommittees. They also outline membership, elections, duties of leadership positions, meeting procedures, financial processes, and plans for dissolution of assets. The overall purpose is to improve communication and quality of life within the district.
The City of San José is projecting a small $9 million General Fund surplus for the 2012-2013 budget. Over the next five years, small surpluses or shortfalls are projected annually. The 2012-2013 proposed budget totals $2.6 billion for operating and capital budgets. The budget incorporates a two-year approach to address a projected $22.5 million shortfall in 2013-2014. It continues services funded in 2011-2012, opens new libraries and community centers, addresses infrastructure needs, and funds essential operations and programs identified in the Mayor's budget message.
The memorandum recommends accepting the Mayor's March Budget Message with amendments to prioritize restoring certain city services if additional general fund surplus is realized. Specifically, it recommends restoring: 1) branch library services to operate 6 days a week, 2) transportation services for seniors to nutrition programs, 3) funding assistance for neighborhood business associations, 4) staffing for the Fire Department's Hazardous Incident Team, and 5) hiring 10 additional police officers to suppress gang violence and neighborhood crimes.

SJ Neighborhoods Commission - Rancho del Pueblo letter
1. BOB Dolci Draft for May Subcommittee Meeting
TO. San José City Council
FROM: Neighborhoods Commission
DATE: April 4, 2012
CONCERNING: Sale of Rancho Del Pueblo Golf Course
The City of San José should not consider the sale of Rancho Del Pueblo Golf Course (RDP)
as a viable financial solution to address or attempt to solve immediate and future fiscal
emergencies. The short and long-term costs of selling RDP will fall far short of relieving
deficits. In fact, the sale of RDP may cause the City to incur future financial liabilities for
which the City may be ill-prepared to handle. Such a sale:
• Is inherently a one-time transactions and is categorized in the private sector as
'extraordinary income' or 'capital gains/losses.'
• Like any sale of a fixed asset, affects the quality of neighborhoods all over the City
especially because it is used directly by residents for outdoor activities.
• Will not significantly solve current and future budget shortfalls. A potential sale of
RDP would be just a drop in the bucket, a one-time small quick buck for a budget
deficit.
• Would potentially destroy an open space environment in exchange for creating new
housing. This would cause an increase in the demand for City services, including
emergency services; and contribute to increased school enrollment and overcrowded
classrooms in the local schools, requiring additional school capacity. The latter would
burden homeowners in the area with property tax increases due to probable school
bond assessments. These increases will create financial hardships on senior and
lower income homeowners. The City routinely has been a driving force behind
such scenarios; such as those that played out in District 7 where residents are now
cursed with overcrowded schools and bond debt for both elementary and
secondary schools, while at the same time the more affluent districts in the City
have closed schools.
By contrast, preservation of City assets, such as RDP, and the funding of their maintenance
and operating expenses should be one of the City's highest budget priorities because by
doing so the City would preserve a valuable community asset and avoid far greater costs
related to deteriorating neighborhoods. With respect to RDP, no dollar value can be
attributed to the following facts about the value of the RDP facilities. They provide:
• A very quiet and naturally calming place that helps to ensure a greater perceived calming
ambience to the community and immediate area.
• A safe haven for disabled, children, and seniors.
• A safe, more peaceful place for all to go, free of dangerous influences.
• A green oasis, a green space free of visual obstructions, such as walls, thereby enhancing
the light in our children’s, disabled persons’, senior’s and general community’s eyes due
to experiencing the green space and tranquility of this special place.
• Very little noise pollution, fewer cars and traffic associated with retail or commercial
environment.
• Relief from more overcrowded schools due to large high density residential structures.
• An opportunity for all ages to see more trees, wetlands and natural wildlife.
2. • A place for all ages to meet in an informal lunch room and snack bar.
• A place where children can learn about wildlife and experience scarce, naturally green
and spacious areas.
• An environment that contributes to much cleaner air to breath for the entire South Bay
Area.
• An excellent opportunity to learn life's values via the renowned First Tee Program, which
teaches children and youth to follow rules, display sportsmanship, maintain proper,
positive behavior, decorum and practice fair play. These beneficial attributes come at no
cost to the city, as a result of this on-site program.
Such values and related issues are in some instances priceless to the Bay Area and especially
to San José residents and neighborhoods. As such, these issues and facts are extremely
important and in some instances nearly impossible to place a dollar value on them for the
sake of budgetary purposes. Furthermore:
• The bay area benefits from this priceless, irreplaceable facility. Consider that New York’s
Central Park and San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park were kept intact by these cities
despite the financial stress and hardships of the Great Depression.
• Rancho Del Pueblo and its predecessor, Thunderbird Golf Course, have been a place for
golf since the late 60's, nearly 50 years. There is a priceless value of this facility to the
South Bay Area.
• A loss of "inner-city-green-space" should be avoided at any time due to the
permanence of that loss and insurmountable cost of replacing it at a later date.
• A study conducted by San José State University in the early 2000's revealed that
inner city San José is very "park-deficient" by the City's own criteria. A sale of
any such large green space will further exacerbate that deficiency.
• RDP Is an equitable facility in that a potential loss of the facility would constitute a
continuation of unfair, unbalanced policies that have reduced green space and eliminated
recreational facilities in the East San José area, disproportionately with respect to the rest
of the City
• The City has done grave harm to many of its newer immigrant minority youth
with its high-density affordable housing plans. Schools have been negatively
impacted by these plans, in that the City has inadvertently created overcrowded
classrooms. In such classrooms, increasing numbers of new students are
constantly arriving. These new students frequently require much greater
attention. This takes time away from the rest of the students, resulting in a
disservice to all. Many students of these impacted schools score consistently
lower on standardized tests.
• During public hearings on this topic, over 90% of the participants expressed
opposition to the sale of RDP. They consistently urged the City to keep this
valuable community asset.
To summarize,
• A potential sale of Rancho Del Pueblo would not pay off directly related bonded
indebtedness, nor would it pay off any bonded indebtedness from the other city-owned
golf courses.
• There would be no allowance for the revenue contribution to support additional City
services in the future due to the sale and resultant loss of assets.
3. • The sale of City-owned land and/or of other assets would not substantially solve current
and subsequent and potential budgetary deficits.
• Sale of city assets would be short-sighted and would potentially limit future budget
options due to a lack of revenue generating assets.
• The City should explore other means of making golf courses more profitable, such as by
raising green fees and snack bar prices and by restructured financing of city assets.
• It is short-sighted for the City to base budgeting priorities on ways that negatively impact
neighborhood priorities and quality of life issues, not taking into account “cuts” and
“revenue generation" and how this affects the current and future issues and residential
environment.
Thus, it is the position of the Neighborhoods Commission that it is not in the overall benefit
of City of San José and its residents to consider the sale of Rancho Del Pueblo Golf Course
any more than the sale of such non-revenue generating assets such as parks and libraries.
The Rancho Del Pueblo Golf Course must be preserved for the benefit of present and future
generations.
