Polachi Security Cameras and Lighting ADMIN-24-006 $70,000; Nobadeer Soccer Field Addition &Expansion (Parks and Rec Master) Plan FAC-24-003 $3.8m. Hussey — Different documentation has different priorities for the security cameras; asked what the priority is. Polachi—Medium to high. Kaizer—Asked which department, DPW or Parks and Rec,will be using the cameras. Welch—We're dealing with the department that's managing the facilities, so it will go to the DPW. Kickham—As far as lighting,reminded to be mindful of light intrusion. Polachi—There won't be any additional lighting, this focuses on the cameras. Kaizer—.Asked if the cameras are spec'ed for high-weather areas along the coasts. Polachi—They are spec'ed for specific locations. Reviewed the specific locations and reasons for the cameras. Welch — Asked to confirm if the videos will be event driven and viewable by interested parties.DPW rear entry resolution, asked about the distance the camera is covering. Page 1 of 3 Proposed CapProCom Minutes for October 27, 2022, adopted Nov. 3 Polachi — They will be tied into the NPD; it's the same system. Regarding the rear camera, we should be able to capture everything from the salt shed. Kickham—Wants to ensure there's a plan to keep the lenses clean to protect resolution. Kickham' Asked if the Nobadeer Soccer Field project is based upon demand. Polachi —Yes, it's based upon the overall master plan for youth sports. We need to be able to rotate fields so that a couple are in a state of rest at all times. Hussey—Asked if the support building is complete. Polachi—We're about 95% complete;we're waiting on doors. Vieth—Asked if the "Turf enhancement"is real grass or synthetic. Polachi—We are loosening up the topsoil and eliminating areas of puddling. Vieth—Suggested looking into another turf field. Polachi — Instead of a synthetic field, we're focusing on grass. We're hoping the technology will change. Synthetic turf would be good to have especially in early spring when grass isn't yet growing. Noted that the plan is to maintain the vegetated buffer along the road. Bridges—Wants to ensure the lighting is Dark Skies certified. Welch— On operations, it seems the primary consideration is to let the field test rather than increase the use, which coincides with increase parking. Asked if they have tried to provision for additional parking. Polachi— In front of Field 4 there will be 42 new parking spaces. A resting field would be a future thing. Phase II, when we start work on the Delta Fields, Nobadeer fields will have to pick up the slack. Welch — CapCom looks at operations for maintenance and personal costs, asked if adding fields will change those costs. Polachi—A little; currently all fields are carried by a subcontractor. Kickham—He had asked about another court. They are primarily soccer fields;if someone is playing on one of the fields and soccer players show up, it seems their space is being encroached upon.Asked about providing areas for other sports. Polachi — On the Delta Fields, there is a lot of land, which is still in design phase and will include more different sport venues. b.RORI Completion/Discussion IV. OTHER BUSINESS 1.
