SUMMARY Ritchie Valens Recreation Center is located at 10736 Laurel Canyon Blvd., Pacoima, CA 91331 in Council District 7. This property includes a picnic area, tennis and basketball courts, children’s play area, ball diamonds, and a gymnasium. Approximately 3,500 City residents live within a 1/2 mile walking distance of the recreation center. The proposed Project is a Proposition K Competitive grant (9th Cycle) funded project. The scope of work for the proposed Project consists of replacing existing lighting at three (3) basketball courts and two (2) tennis courts with new, Light Emitting Diode (LED) light fixtures. This will provide improved quality of lighting, with reduced spillover of light onto adjacent properties and/or other areas of the recreation center. The new LED light fixtures will also reduce operational costs, by reducing energy consumption relative to current electrical usage. After review by RAP and Bureau of Engineering (BOE) staff, it was determined that the work can be completed by RAP pre-qualified contractors and BOE will provide construction management services. RAP’s Planning, Construction and Maintenance Division prepared the plans and specifications, and obtained all the necessary approvals for the proposed Project. As required by Proposition K, three (3) Local Volunteer Neighborhood Oversight Committee (LVNOC) meetings were conducted. The first LVNOC meeting was on June 14, 2018. The second and third LVNOC meetings were concluded on the same date of July 24, 2018. The community, the LVNOC and Office of Council District 7 are in full support of the proposed Project. Sufficient funds are available for the construction and construction contingencies of the proposed Project from the following funds and accounts: TREES AND SHADE No trees will be removed and any existing trees near the proposed location(s) of new light standards to be installed as a part of this proposed Project will be protected during the construction. Since this proposed Project focuses on improving lighting for evening recreation activities, additional trees and shade structures are not part of the scope. Furthermore, the approved Proposition K funds for this proposed Project do not include funds for the installation of shade structures and trees.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The proposed Project consists of the installation of new lighting for security and operations, with negligible or no expansion of use, to rehabilitate damaged structure to meet current standards of public safety. As such staff recommends that the Board of Recreation and Park Commissioners (Board) determines that it is exempt from the provisions of CEQA pursuant to Article III, Section 1, Class 1(1), Class 1(4) and Class 1(12) of City CEQA Guidelines and Article 19, Sections 15301(a) and 15301(d) of California CEQA Guidelines. An NOE will be filed with the Los Angeles County Clerk upon the Board’s approval. FISCAL IMPACT There is no immediate fiscal impact to RAP’s General Fund. The proposed Project should reduce long term maintenance and operational costs, as the Project will replace existing, higher energy use sports court lighting systems with new, energy efficient LED lighting systems. STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVES AND GOALS Approval of this Board Report advances RAP’s Strategic Plan by supporting: Goal No. 5: Ensure an environmentally sustainable park system Outcome No. 1: Decreased energy consumption and achieve a smaller carbon footprint Result: The installation of the proposed LED lighting systems will decrease energy consumption resulting in a more sustainable park system. This report was prepared by Erick Chang, Project Manager, and reviewed by Neil Drucker, Interim Architectural Division Manager, Architectural Division, BOE; and Darryl Ford, Superintendent, Planning, Construction and Maintenance Branch, RAP.
