RecreationandParkCommission | 2019-01-10 | 4 | EXHIBIT 1 ARPD Director's Report - Presented by ARPD Director Amy Wooldridge 01/10/19 Mastick Senior Center This month Mastick is hosting the Senior Services Action Team. This is a quarterly meeting of community based organizations providing services to the senior community in Alameda. It provides networking, education and problem solving opportunities. Parks Maintenance At Littlejohn Park, the asphalt pathways were resurfaced and the baseball field is now fully renovated. The new playground replacement will be completed within a couple weeks. The Longfellow Park restroom was revamped by Public Works. The magnolia tree at Longfellow Park is not doing well. It has been assessed by two independent arborists and while it's not a safety concern, it needs to be removed. This tree has a long history with the community and we are working to be respectful of that. We are exploring opportunities to mill the wood for benches placed in the park and create some type of memento from the wood that ARPD will give out to the community. We will replace it with a new magnolia tree and have already made many changes to ensure it can be healthy and grow quickly. Sweeney Park is a huge success and it's also taking a significant amount of resources for maintenance. We expect this to level out in time. Recreation Services The "Out of this World" Dance Party for February 8 at the O' Club is almost sold out. Commissioners are encouraged to stop by.
