HomeMy WebLinkAbout2/6/2002 - STAFF REPORTS (8) DATE: FEBRUARY 6, 2002
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: C. LEE WEIGEL, CHIEF OF POLICE
SUBJECT: BMX TRACK
RECOMMENDATION:
That City Council approve an agreement for the use of City property under the control of
the Wastewater Treatment Plant for the creation of a BMX program (Bicycle Moto-Cross)
for the youth of the Coachella Valley.
SUMMARY:
The Palm Springs Police Activities League requests that the City Council support the use of
City property adjacent to and held for future use of the Wastewater Treatment Plant for the
creation of a BMX program for youth.
BACKGROUND:
In 1996, the Palm Springs Police Department created a chapter of the California Police
Activities League, known locally as the Palm Springs Police Activities League (PS PAL).
The specific purpose of this non-profit public benefit corporation is to provide a common
meeting ground for police, citizens and specifically, the youth of our community in the
area of sports, education and recreation activities. Current programs include baseball,
basketball, boxing, wrestling, Pom-poms, computer club, hiking, camping, all terrain
vehicle trips and field trips.
During a recent survey of Palm Springs youth to determine what types of youth
programs may be desired, a great deal of support emerged for a bicycle off-road track,
called a BMX track. A small parcel track in Cathedral City is scheduled to close in early
January 2002.
In reviewing various City parcels of land that might accommodate that activity, a vacant
parcel of land east of the city's wastewater treatment plant became a preferred site for a
number of reasons. It is vacant property, located in an industrial area being held for
future sewer plant expansion but won't be needed for years according to Jack Martin,
Project Manager, U.S. Filter and John Raymond, City Redevelopment Agency. Demuth
Park is located just west of this parcel, and a BMX facility in this location is easily
assembled by youth and volunteers in the community. An adult volunteer will always be
present during hours of operation. Hours of operation are yet to be determined.
Attached is a proposed agreement for City Council consideration, which would make
this parcel available to PSPAL for this BMX project with no fiscal impact. PSPAL will
�I�
provide the prescribed insurance as required by the City's Risk Manager. Parents will
be required to sign a waiver of liability. PSPAL will have the dirt track constructed by
volunteer contractors and other donors. It is recommended that the City Council
approve the proposed minute order attached approving the lease agreement.
Palm Springs PAL is currently in contact with several companies and agencies
regarding installation of materials and construction necessary to complete the project. It
is anticipated that construction of the track will be done as a community service project.
There will be no fiscal impact to the City.

transfer in lieu thereof results in a taking of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Site,
PSPAL may, upon written notice given within thirty (30) days after such taking or transfer in
lieu thereof, terminate this Lease, PSPAL shall not be entitled to share in any portion of the
award and PSPAL hereby expressly waives any right or claim to any part thereof. PSPAL
shall, however, have the right to claim and recover, only from the condemning authority (by
not from City), any amounts necessary to reimburse PSPAL for the cost of removing its
furniture, equipment and merchandise. If this Lease is not terminated as above provided,
City shall use a portion of the condemnation award to restore the Site.
12.3 Surrender at End of Term. Any improvements built, constructed, or placed
upon the Site by or under PSPAL, other than PSPAL's trade fixtures, equipment and
-9-
�h �I
personal property, shall remain on the Site and become the absolute property of City without
any cost to City upon the termination of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or by forfeiture
by reason of default provided that PSPAL shall have the right to remove its trade fixtures,
removable tenant improvements, equipment and personal property on or before expiration
or earlier termination of this Lease, provided that PSPAL repairs any damage occasioned by
such removal.
If, at the end of the Lease Term or earlier termination as herein provided, PSPAL has
left any merchandise, furniture or fixtures in or about the Site, City may give PSPAL written
notice to remove said property. In the event said property is not removed within thirty (30)
days of the sending of said notice, City may dispose of said property in any manner
whatsoever, at PSPAL's cost, and PSPAL hereby waives any claim or right to said property
or any proceeds derived from the sale thereof.
12.4 Holding Over. In the event PSPAL shall hold over the Site after the expiration
of the Lease Term (including any extensions) with the consent of City either express or
implied including, without limitation, a hold over by a sublessee, such holding over shall be
construed to be only a tenancy from month to month, subject to all the covenants, conditions
and obligations hereof, and PSPAL hereby agrees to pay City the same rentals and charges
provided for by this Lease for such additional time as PSPAL shall hold such property.
12.5 Force Maieure. If either party is delayed, prevented or hindered from the
performance of any covenant or condition of this Lease because of acts of the other party,
Acts of God, adverse weather conditions not reasonably anticipated, war, invasion,
insurrection, acts of a public enemy, riot, mob violence, civil commotion, sabotage, labor
disputes, inability to market, unusual delay in transportation, laws, rules, regulations or orders
of governmental or military authorities, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of
the parties so obligated, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, financial inability
excepted, such performance shall be excused for the period of the delay, and the period for
such performance shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay.
12.6 Waiver. No written waiver of any breach of any of the terms, covenants,
agreements, restrictions or conditions of this Lease shall be construed as a waiver of any
succeeding breach of the same or other covenants, agreements, restrictions and conditions
hereof. City's acceptance of any sum payable by PSPAL to City under this Lease while
PSPAL is in default under the terms of this Lease shall not constitute a waiver by City of such
default, other than a default by PSPAL in payment of the sum so accepted by City. PSPAL
shall not rely on any oral waiver and shall not rely on any course of conduct as a waiver of
any provision of this Lease. PSPAL may rely only on specific waivers confirmed in writing.
