Title
ACCEPTANCE OF A DONATION FROM FALLBROOK SKATEPARK INC. TO THE DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION FOR A FALLBROOK SKATEPARK (DISTRICT: 5)
Body
OVERVIEW
The Fiscal Year 2019-20 Operational Plan includes $582,000 for the construction of a skatepark in Fallbrook. The Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) is currently pursuing land in the community of Fallbrook to acquire property and build a park that will include the skatepark, and the Fiscal Year 2019-20 Operational Plan includes $2,000,000 for this purpose. The Fallbrook Skatepark will be the first park and recreation facility in Fallbrook built to meet the needs of the youth and adults who enjoy the sport of skateboarding.
Fallbrook Skatepark Inc. (FSI) is a non-profit organization committed to facilitating safe skateboarding opportunities in the Fallbrook area for skateboarders of all ages and abilities. On August 1, 2019, the FSI board voted to donate $20,000 to DPR to add to the construction funds available for skatepark amenities in the future Fallbrook Skatepark. County of San Diego Administrative Code Section 66, Acceptance of Gifts, and Board of Supervisor Policy A-112, Acceptance and Use of Gifts and Donations, requires the Board of Supervisors to approve the acceptance of donations that exceed $5,000. Today's requested action will authorize DPR to accept the $20,000 cash donation from FSI and establish appropriations of $20,000 in Capital Project 1022920, Fallbrook Skatepark.
