SUMMARY
The Recreation and Community Services Department’s last Master Plan update was
completed in 2007. Since that time, the City has enacted a Parks Development Impact
Fee, which has rapidly developed a balance due to significant residential development
in the community. In order to determine the best use of the funds, the Recreation and
Parks Master Plan has been updated.
The 2017 Recreation and Parks Master Plan is a guiding policy document that provides
recommendations for prioritizing future recommendations for growth, development, and
implementation strategies related to parks and recreation services. The development
included significant input from the community at-large as well as key existing
stakeholders and is an accurate reflection of the facility needs and recreation desires of
the evolving community.
It is recommended the City Council adopt Resolution No. 7175 adopting the 2017
Recreation and Parks Master Plan.
BACKGROUND

when making recommendations for specific future growth and implementation strategies
related to parks and recreation services.The current Recreation and Parks Master Plan
was adopted in 2007and many of the key programs have been implemented.In
addition, that document was developer prior to the City establishing a Parks
Development Impact Fee, which is applied to all new residential development. Due to

the pace of development in recent years, the balance of the fund has grown to over $8
million.
On April 7, 2015, the City Council awarded acontract to ICG, Inc. for acomprehensive
update of theRecreation and Parks Master Plan.ICG, Inc. and staff worked with the
community over two yearsto createthe proposed 2017 Recreation and Parks Master
Plan, which is to serve as a reference and guidefor the City’s planning and
implementation strategies for recreation services and parks for the next 20 years, as
called for by the City’s General Plan.

being updatedto beconsistent with the City’s adopted General Plan.
DISCUSSION
The proposed 2017 Recreation and Parks Master Plan addresses all of the goals,
policies, and implementation measures of the Parks, Recreation, and Community
Resources Element of the General Plan that are identified as being the responsibility of
the Recreation and Community Services Department. The Recreation and Parks Master
Plan team gathered input from the community through a variety of methods including:
meetings with community stakeholders, andfocus groups with the Leadership
Academy, sport user groups, senior citizen groups and the Arcadia Chinese
Association.There were also a number of public workshops, a citywide phone survey,
staff surveys, website and written surveys, plus meetings with the Recreation and Parks
and Senior Citizen Commissions.In all, over 1,000people provided input into the
document.

PART 1 - INTRODUCTION
1 A: Scope and Purpose
The Community Services Department of the City of Arcadia retained
Integrated Consulting Group (ICG), for professional consulting services to
complete the work necessary to update the City’s Comprehensive
Recreation and Parks Master Plan. The previous Master Plan document was
adopted by the City Council in 2007.
The Recreation and Parks Master Plan will be the guide staff will reference
when making recommendations for future growth and implementation
strategies. The consultants worked closely with the Recreation and
Community Services Department, Development Services Department, Public Works Services Department, the
Recreation and Parks Commission, the Senior Citizens Commission, and the Master Plan Project Team consisting
of staff from Recreation and Community Services and Public Works Services Department.
The Consultants utilized several public input tools as the process to evaluate and determine the elements in need
of updating in the previous Master Plan and, along with the Project Team, developed the priorities to recommend
to the City Council for the updated Master Plan.
The Recreation and Community Services Department of the City of Arcadia operates recreation and parks
facilities which provide the opportunity for leisure activities for approximately 60,000 residents. The City of
Arcadia recognizes that properly planned development and appropriate maintenance of these facilities enhance
the quality of life of the citizens of Arcadia. The updated Recreation and Parks Master Plan provides direction to
continue the orderly and consistent planning, acquisition, development and administration of the recreation and
parks programming in the City.
The Recreation and Community Services Department of the City of Arcadia plays an important role in creating a
healthy community through diverse and innovative programming. The Department’s goal is to enhance the
quality of life in the community by providing positive recreation and leisure opportunities for people of all ages.
The Department strives to achieve this goal by encouraging citizen involvement and developing cultural harmony
which is supported by a commitment to building and maintaining community partnerships and by responding to
community needs. The Department has a nine-part mission to:
Provide recreational experiences
Foster human development
Promote health and wellness
Protect environmental resources
Facilitate community problem solving
Support economic development
Strengthen safety and security
Strengthen community image and sense of place
Increase cultural unity
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS –City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 1
The City of Arcadia General Plan, which outlines the goals and objectives for parks and recreation in the Parks,
Recreation, and Community Resources Element, calls for the update of the Master Plan every 20 years.
Consequently, this Master Plan is intended to guide the City through the year 2037.
However, the document has been prepared in digital format so that it can be updated by the Recreation and
Community Services Department if necessary. As park and facility improvements are accomplished through the
City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP); new local, state, and federal regulations are adopted; and trends in
recreation change, the document can be easily revised to reflect current conditions and new priorities.
Consequently, the Master Plan is not a one-time snapshot of the recreation and parks system, but rather a living
document to be edited and referred to in future years when planning and determining the allocation of resources
for parks, facilities, and programs.
1 B: Planning Process
The first phase of the process to update the Comprehensive Recreation and Parks Master Plan was the
assessment of needs based upon the review of existing parks and recreation related documents and the
collection of new data utilizing the following methods:
1. A thorough review of the previous Recreation and
Parks Master Plan adopted in 2007, the 2006
Recreation and Community Services Strategic Plan,
and the goals and objectives for parks and recreation
listed in the 2010 Parks, Recreation, and Community
Resources Element of the General Plan.
2. The hosting of special focus groups, such as the
seniors group “Arcadia Travelers” to start the public
input process for updating the Master Plan.
3. A review and update of the existing inventory and an analysis of parks, recreational facilities, and
trails. Each individual site plan was then updated. Aerial photographs of sites were added.
4. The identification of potential deficiencies in existing recreation and parks facilities with respect to
amenities and recreation programming needs.
5. The completion of a demand analysis for recreation and parks facilities, and recreation programs
which considered demographic trends and projections as well as an analysis of present programs.
The demand analysis included a random citywide telephone survey that consisted of 200 residents;
and a community survey responded to by 380 residents that are current users of City parks and
facilities; a senior citizen survey completed by seniors who use or are involved in senior
programming at the senior center; a survey of youth sports groups who use City fields; stakeholder
interviews with agencies, community groups and individuals with knowledge of the City’s recreation
and park facilities and programs; and surveys of full time and part time City recreation staff.
6. An analysis of the potential for improvement to existing City parks; Arcadia Regional Park operated
by Los Angeles County; Arcadia Par 3 Golf Course improvements; and various school site
improvements.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 2
7. A determination of the need for special activity facilities (i.e. youth sports facilities, teen recreation
center/gymnasium, and pickle ball courts) along with a recommendation of potential improvements
to children’s play areas in all neighborhood parks.
8. Development of a conceptual Master Plan for Arcadia Regional Park that
outlines joint City/County opportunities for the development of future
facilities within the park.
9. The development and/or update of plot plans/schematics of all existing
City parks and recreational facilities.
10. The review of the City's plan to meet the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements and the
identification of deficiencies and a long range plan for meeting ADA requirements.
11. The review of operational and maintenance policies and standards for the park system (including
building facilities) to determine if updates are needed to maintain a safe, clean and quality parks
system.
12. A review of existing state regulations that may impact park facilities, i.e. water regulations to ensure
park improvements comply with the City’s Enhanced Watershed Management Plan (EWMP), and a
review and recommended compliance procedures for Title IX and AB 2404 regarding non-
discrimination in sports programs based on gender.
13. An analysis of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it pertains to the adoption of the
Master Plan.
1 C: Public Involvement
The Consultant Team, working with the City, utilized a number of input tools to conduct public outreach to solicit
the public’s opinions and requests about recreation program needs and facility desires, as well as their special
insights into the operation of Recreation and Community Services programs and services.
The public outreach tools used by the Consultant Team included:
o General Public Input workshops and Surveys
o Focus Workshop with Leadership Academy
o Focus Workshop and Surveys with Sports Groups
o Focus Workshop and Survey for Senior Citizen Groups
o Citywide Community Phone Survey
o Web and Community Written Survey
o Community Services Staff Survey
o Joint LA County Master Plan Workshop
o Meeting with Arcadia Chinese Association
o Recreation and Parks Commission
o Senior Citizens Commission
The consultants and City staff talked to people utilizing City facilities while conducting park and facility inventories
and assessing conditions, in an effort to gain insight into how current park users perceive the City’s park and
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 3
recreation programs and services and what ideas they may have for possible improvements, additions, or
changes that would better serve their needs.
The survey firm Research Network Ltd. was retained to conduct the “Community Phone Survey.” The purpose of
the survey was to obtain statistically valid, community-wide input on a variety of issues related to Arcadia
residents’ use of parks, facilities and programs and their preferences for future improvements to Arcadia’s parks.
The information gained from the input tools was analyzed, then summarized and finally incorporated into the
Demand & Needs Analysis.
1 D: Report Organization
The updated comprehensive Recreation and Parks Master Plan contains five
sections. This format was chosen to make the Master Plan easy to work
with and understand. Given the tremendous amount of data, graphics,
number of facilities and analysis, separating the documents so they can be
accessed and used individually makes it easier for the reader to find the
areas or portions of the Master Plan they are interested in. The following is
a list of each section contained in the Master Plan:
Section 1 – Executive Summary and Needs Analysis
Section 2 – Arcadia Park Facilities
Section 3 – Los Angeles County Park Facilities
Section 4 – Joint Use Parks and Facilities
Section 5 – Park and Facility Standard Specifications
Section 1 is the Introduction and Executive Summary, which includes a summary of park and facility
recommendations with estimated costs, which were developed from the results of the community outreach tools
and the demand analysis for facilities and programs. It provides an overview of the documents contained in the
Master Plan. It also gives an overview of the planning context and Master Plan goals.
Section 2 is a complete inventory of existing Arcadia park facilities displayed in aerial format showing existing
amenities and the conceptual plans for future improvements. Also included is a summary of the
recommendations proposed for each site.
Section 3 is a complete inventory of existing Los Angeles County park facilities displayed in aerial format showing
existing amenities and the conceptual plans for future improvements. Also included is a summary of the
recommendations proposed for each site.
Section 4 is a complete inventory of existing schools serving Arcadia displayed in aerial format showing existing
amenities.
Section 5 is a listing of park amenity, playground, trail, building and restroom, and irrigation standards.

1 E: Master Plan Goals
The Arcadia City Staff Project Team developed several Master Plan goals to guide the consultant team in the
Master Plan process. It was agreed that the Master Plan needed to do the following in order to be a document
the Recreation and Community Services Department could use to guide its facility and program development in
the future:
1. Describe current and future demographic projections and regional context;
2. Examine the current conditions of parks, trails and facilities;
3. Study and analyze current public demand and needs for parks, recreation and cultural facilities,
programs and special events;
4. Recommend improvements to existing parks, facilities, and opportunities for joint use;
5. Examine and analyze current policy documents;
6. Recommend future uses and proposed amenities at Wilderness Park;
7. Describe costs and priority actions to enable the City to implement the recommendations.
1 F: California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Compliance
`
The Recreation and Parks Master Plan is one of the implementation measures in the Parks, Recreation, and
Community Resources Element of the City’s General Plan. Specifically, Chapter 7-30 Goal PR-4 “A network of
City, school, and private community facilities that provides spaces for recreation, education, enrichment,
and social service programs.”
The proposed Master Plan is in line with CEQA Guideline 15262 in that it is a type of feasibility and planning
study that does not legally bind the City to act on any of the projects discussed in the document, and does
not provide funding for those projects. The proposed Recreation and Parks Master Plan should be Statutorily
Exempt from CEQA under Article 18, Section 15262 of the CEQA Guidelines. This approach is widely used for
master planning documents of this type. The justification for this finding is best explained as follows:
“The adoption of this Plan is exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Public Resources Code Section
21000, et seq. under CEQA Guideline 15262. That Guideline exempts
planning studies for possible future action, since the possible future
action (e.g. parkland acquisition and development) is not being
approved as part of the action to adopt this Plan. This Plan is not
intended to be legally binding on the future actions of the Planning
Commission (or Parks and Recreation Commission) or the City
Council, but rather as a guide to formulate potential future actions
which will be assessed pursuant to the City’s normal processing
requirements, including CEQA review. The adoption of this Plan is not intended to commit the City to any definite
course of action in regards to the acquisition or development of parkland and recreational amenities.”
The City will need to file a Notice of Exemption (NOE) with the County of Los Angeles and pay the applicable filing
fee immediately following the adoption of the Recreation and Parks Master Plan.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 5
Since the Recreation and Parks Master Plan also includes some detailed park and facility specification standards,
and specific recommendations for repair and replacement of existing facilities, it is also suggested the City add two
Categorical Exemptions to the NOE: Section 15301 exempts repairs/rehab to existing facilities; Section 15302

PART 2 - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
2 A: Existing General Plan Policy Recommendations
The City of Arcadia has a set of park acquisition, park development, and program policies it has developed over the
years which are contained in the City of Arcadia General Plan. The policies contained in Chapter 7: Parks,
Recreation, and Community Resources Element of the General Plan (Policy PR 1.1 through PR 1.20 and Policy PR
2.1 through PR 2.5) are current and up to date and should continue to be the operating policies to guide the City in
developing and maintaining its recreation and parks system.
2 B: Planning Context
This section provides an overview of the planning context for which the Master Plan was prepared. Arcadia serves
local and regional residents, so knowing the service area for the Recreation and Community Services Department is
important to understand. The City’s population, income and age demographics, and ethnic composition affect
what programs, facilities and services will be needed within the community.

2013 cost of living index in Arcadia: 140.3 (very high, U.S. average is 100)
Unemployment in June 2014 was 4.6% (California average is 7.3%)
Population by age (2014)
Under 17 17.2%
18 to 55 44.1%
55 & Over 38.7%
Demographic Summary:
Population density in Arcadia is 2,155% higher than California average
Median age in Arcadia is 21% higher than California average
Cost of living is 39.6% higher than US average
58.90% of the population is Asian
26.30% of the population is Caucasian
11.30 % Hispanic
Remaining population is African American or other races
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 10
Consequently, higher than average density, older population, changing cultural heritages, and higher than
average cost of living are all factors that need to be taken into consideration when planning for delivery of
recreation and community services and designing community facilities.
Demographic Projection and Correlation to Recreation:
There has been an upward trend in the Asian population over the past
decade and that trend is projected to continue. Because of the median
home prices and relatively high cost of living the minority populations are
projected to remain constant. The median age is projected to continue to
increase over the next 20 years as post World War II “Baby Boomers”
reach retirement age. Density is also expected to increase as older
properties are recycled to meet the housing demand created by the
increase in population generated by Arcadia being a desirable place to live
and the excellent reputation of the schools in Arcadia. These projections correlate to the demand for recreation
programs and facilities that meet the cultural diversity of Arcadia, address increasing density, take into account
the mature population, and meet the needs of young families that may struggle with the high cost of living in
Arcadia.
NRPA Current Recreation Trends That Could Affect Local Program Demand:
The following list of national trends in recreation was developed by the National Recreation and Parks
Association. These trends can be used as a guide for the Department in the future for programming.
1. Health and Fitness - Energizing fitness classes, studio space for Yoga, Zumba, Pilates and Dance.
Active lifestyles are a trend in all age, ethnic, and income demographics.
2. Education Classes - Technology and software classes for computers, tablets and smart phone
devices, web-based continuing education, new career training, volunteer placement services, guest
speakers, homework/tutoring programs for teens are all trends in higher median income
communities.
3. Walking and Hiking Trails - Lighted pathways in parks, connecting bike trails, outdoor adventures,
wilderness activities, and nature programs are trends in communities where green and natural
lifestyles are important to residents.
4. Active Community Centers - Social lounge areas, serving individual and
family needs, the needs of clubs and organizations within the service
area, multipurpose spaces, game rooms and classrooms, and
community event space trend big in diverse communities with high
percentage of senior population.
5. Outdoor Performance Facilities - Concerts, movies in the park, and
community events are trends in communities with extended families
and are culturally diverse.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 11
6. Dog Parks - Growing demand nationally and locally, provides for community social interaction in age
of social media.
7. Golf Courses - Regulation and Par 3 and practice facilities, along with foot golf capabilities. Per the
National Golf Foundation, Asians account for the fastest growing segment of the population playing
golf.
8. Multi-Purpose Gymnasium - Basketball, volleyball, badminton,
group exercise classes. The trend in successful communities is for
gymnasiums that have a full basketball court with two cross courts,
which can also accommodate four volleyball courts, futsal, and
large group exercise classes. These multi-purpose gyms are usually
built with a second level walking track around the perimeter of the
inside of the gym.
3 B: Community Outreach
ICG, the consultant team working with the City, utilized a number of methods to conduct public outreach to
solicit the public’s opinions and requests about recreation program needs and facility desires, as well as their
special insights into the operation of Recreation and Community Services Department programs and services.
The following is the summary of the information gathered:
Stakeholder Interviews
ICG conducted 21 interviews with selected community leaders, civic
organizations, and representatives of agencies the City partners with to
deliver community services to residents in Arcadia as part of the outreach
process for the Recreation and Community Services Master Plan. Getting
feedback and insight from community stakeholders is an important tool in the
overall determination of what the priorities should be for park and facility
improvements and the direction recreation and community services
programming should take in the future.
The interviews were confidential to encourage open dialogue and honest opinions of the state of facilities and
recreation programs in Arcadia. Below is the list of people interviewed and a summary of their comments,
opinions, and suggestions divided into what they said collectively about (1) Park and Facility Improvements; (2)
Programs and Services; and (3) Future Needs.

The stakeholder comments as well as the input received in the other outreach methods used in the Master Plan
process were used to determine recommendations and priorities for facility improvements and future programs
listed in Section 4 of the Executive Summary.
Full and Part Time Staff Focus Group
As part of the ICG outreach process for the Recreation and Park Master Plan, two staff focus group meetings were
held to gain insight into both full time and part time staff opinions as to program and facility needs. The following
is the summary and analysis of those focus groups.It is important to know a few things about the staff that
responded and gave their input in order to assess the facilities they work in, the age groups they work with, how
they feel about their working conditions, and if they believe they are receiving enough training to make them
comfortable doing their jobs. A total of 54 staff of the Recreation and Community Services Department
participated in the Staff Focus Groups and completed the staff questionnaire.
65% work or have worked in the Arcadia Community/Senior Center
59% work or have worked at the Wilderness Park
52% work or have worked at all the school district facilities the City runs programs
28% work or have worked programs at the City Hall Lawn
22% work or have worked at Bonita Park and Eisenhower Park
Less than 10% work or have worked at remaining City facilities
Summary: The Staff Focus Group responses represent a good cross section of opinions from those individuals who
have worked in the City’s most popular facilities and have a working knowledge of the facility needs.
The age groups the Staff Focus Groups work with include:
Under 5 19%
5 to 9 69%
10 to 14 68%
15 to 19 28%
20 to 24 22%
25 to 34 22%
35 to 44 22%
45 to 54 35%
55 to 64 39%
Ages 65+ 40%
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 15
Summary: While most of the group worked with youth and teens, there was a good representation of opinions
expressed in the questionnaire from staff that have worked with all age groups. These staff are familiar with
activity and program needs of all age groups. Most of the staff has worked with youth, so there will be a slight
bias toward opinions related to youth needs, but there were a sufficient number of responses from staff who have
worked with seniors to make the overall responses representative of all ages.
With regards to how they felt about the maintenance and physical conditions they work in the responses were as
follows:
20% were “Very Satisfied”
55% were “Somewhat Satisfied”
25% were “Somewhat Dissatisfied”
No one was “Very Dissatisfied”
Summary: Those that worked in City facilities were more satisfied with conditions than those that worked at
School District facilities. Those that worked at Wilderness Park were also less satisfied with their working
conditions. A major factor for this response is from working outdoors all day long in the summer heat.
Training is directly related to the delivery of successful programs and services to the public. Below is the Staff
Focus Group summary of how satisfied they are with the training they receive.
22% thought their training was excellent
30% thought their training was very good and they received what they needed
41% said their training was good, but would like more
5% thought the training was only fair and really would like more
2% thought their training was poor and had to figure things out on their own
Summary: A little over half of the staff feel their training is adequate and what they need for their job; however, a
little under half of the staff responded they would like more training. As a group, part time staff rated their
training higher than the full time staff did.
Front line staff attitudes are often conveyed to the public and public attitudes
conveyed to staff, either directly or indirectly through conversations and
comments, and an important factor in weighing public attitudes about
recreation facilities is to see what attitudes staff has about facilities. The staff
opinions of how Arcadia facilities compare to other cities staff has worked in
or visited are as follows:
28% believe Arcadia has better facilities than other cities they have worked in or visited
24% believe they are the same
48% feel other cities have better park facilities than Arcadia
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 16
Summary: The responses show there are a significant number of opinions Arcadia needs to upgrade their facilities
or add new facilities to offer the same quality of life opportunities as other cities staff has worked in or visited.
Staff is constantly getting feedback from program participants and is therefore a good indicator of how the public
perceives the quality of programs offered in Arcadia. The following is how staff responded to how they feel the
public rates the quality of recreation programs and services in Arcadia.
37% responded they think the public they work with feels the quality of programs is excellent
56% responded they think the public thinks the quality of programs is good
7% responded they think the public thinks the quality of programs is just fair
Summary: A very high 93% of staff believes the public thinks the quality of programs offered in Arcadia are good
to excellent. This indicates a high rate of positive feedback from the public to staff and an indication the public is
very satisfied with program quality.
Staff may also be in a position to receive feedback from participants and the
public on why people drop out of programs or don’t take advantage of the
program opportunities available to them. Consequently, staff’s opinion of why
people don’t participate, or are unable to participate, in programs is a valuable
tool to assess how the City might address any barriers to participation. The staff
opinions on the reasons people may not participate in programs in Arcadia were
as follows:
72% believe people are unaware of program offerings
46% believe it is because classes are full
41% believe it is because people are too busy and have no time
37% believe it is due to programs being held at inconvenient times
33% believe it is because they need childcare to participate
18% believe it is because there is not enough variety of programs
18% believe programs are too expensive and people can’t afford them
12% believe it is because they need transportation to participate
Summary: The staff responses show there is probably a wide variety of reasons for lack of
participation by some in the community. Being unaware, classes being full, and people not
having time were the main reasons staff thought people did not participate. About a third of the
Staff Focus Group thought it is because of logistical reasons, such as, programs are at
inconvenient times for them, they need childcare, or they could not afford them. Only a few felt
it was because of transportation issues.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 17
Finding out what benefits people want from spending their leisure time recreating is important to plan programs
and space for the future to ensure those desires are met in the delivery of recreation and community services.
Since Recreation and Community Services staff receives comments and have personal contact with the public
they serve, finding out what staff thinks the benefits people want from leisure services is an important tool in
assessing public needs for facilities and programs. The following were the staff responses to that question.
79% said their constituents are looking for opportunities to enjoy nature and
the outdoors
56% said they believe people are looking for programs that promote youth
mental and physical health
56% also said people are looking to improve physical fitness, health, and
wellness
48% said people want places and opportunities for the community to come
together
47% said people want cultural opportunities
45% said people are looking for lifelong learning opportunities
29% felt people were looking to help seniors stay active and healthy
28% felt people want to help people with disabilities feel included and remain socially active
Summary: These responses were compared with the answers received in the community and phone surveys and
then used to develop priorities for park improvements.
In order to prioritize staff and facility resources for the future in the Master Plan, it is important to try to
determine what the Recreation and Community Services Department’s focus should be for the next 20 years.
Staff was asked what they thought the Department’s focus should be and responded as follows:
56% said the focus should be on upgrading existing parks
46% said the Department should focus on providing new sports fields and facilities
41% said the Department should focus on providing more recreation programs and activities
29% said the focus should be on maintaining existing facilities
22% thought the focus should be on preserving open space
21% thought the focus should be adding to the trail system
10% felt acquiring land for future parks should be the focus
Summary: Staff responses definitely lean toward upgrading existing facilities, providing new sports fields and
increasing recreation programs as the focus for the Department in the future. Although, there was staff support
for the Department to focus on all areas. These responses were analyzed and combined with the public response
in the community and phone surveys, and then used to determine park improvement priorities.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 18
By increasing cultural unity, it can strengthen the community image and sense of place. Determining cultural
priorities so resources can be allocated according to needs addressed in the Master Plan. Staff responses as to
what they think the cultural priorities are in the community were as follows:
37% felt “Entertainment Events” are the most important to the community
22% thought “Trips and Tours” most important
20% thought “Cultural Festivals” most important
19% thought “Dance and Music” the most important
11% thought Arts and Crafts programs most important
Summary: There was a fairly even distribution of opinions about what cultural opportunities are important to the
community. There was no one type of cultural activity staff thought was significantly more important than all the
others. These answers were analyzed and compared to answers in the community phone survey, and then used to
determine recommendations in the Master Plan.
Staff was asked in three different questions what park and facility improvements they thought the City most
needed to address in the Master Plan. The answers to the three questions were tallied and compared and then
merged into the top 10 priority outcomes below:
1. Improvements to Wilderness Park 6. Space for teen activities
2. Lighted walking paths 7. More classroom space
3. A multipurpose gym 8. City Hall Lawn improvements for concerts and movies
4. Outdoor basketball courts 9. Park restroom improvements
5. More lighted sports fields 10. Improvements to children’s play equipment in parks
Summary: The staff responses on priorities for park and facility improvements reflect
their answers to the question about what they think the benefits the public is looking
for in their leisure time. For example, the number one answer for the benefits the
public is looking for was “constituents are looking for opportunities to enjoy nature
and the outdoors,” and the highest rated improvements they think the City needs to
address are at Wilderness Park and more lighted walking trails. The priorities for a
new gym, lighted basketball courts and more lighted fields correspond to their
answers that “people are looking for programs that promote youth mental and
physical health.” These answers were consistent with the answers from the community surveys and workshops
and used to determine the Master Plan recommendations for facility improvements.
Finally, staff was asked “What one improvement do you think would most benefit the community?” Staff
responses are usually a good gauge of community desires as they are the ones who receive the front line
comments/complaints and requests for facilities and programs. Their responses included the following (not in
priority order):

Web and Hard Copy Community Surveys
ICG conducted a community survey aimed at getting input from recreation program participants and facility users
whereby residents could access the survey and respond to it through the City’s website, or pick up a hard copy at
park and recreation facilities, fill it out and return it to the City.
The community survey was a comprehensive questionnaire covering resident use patterns, demographics, and
opinions on what park users would like in the way of park improvements and programs.
The following is a summary of the community survey results (the entire results are contained in Appendix C –
Community Web & Hard Copy Survey):
A total of 380 responses were received, 72% from Arcadia
residents and 28% from residents in surrounding cities. This
very closely matches the average non-resident participant rate
that attend Arcadia programs, which is about 25%. Residents
from surrounding cities are drawn to Arcadia because of the Los
Angeles County Arcadia Regional Park and the City of Arcadia
Par 3 Golf Course, as well as the Los Angeles County Arboretum
and the Santa Anita Race Track. Consequently, the survey statistically represents the percentage
distribution of participants who actually use Arcadia programs and facilities and can be considered a
valid indication of the opinions of users of Arcadia programs and facilities.
The benefits people wanted most from participating in recreation programs are:
o Opportunities to enjoy events and activities with other people
o Improve fitness, health and wellness, and
o Help seniors maintain socially active lifestyles
Cultural programs were important to people, especially art, music, and dance.
The most used facilities are the Arcadia Community/Senior Center, neighborhood parks, and sports
fields with 75% of the responders saying they use those facilities.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 22
88% responded that they attend the special events put on by the Recreation and Community
Services Department.
There was a 90% satisfaction rate among the users with the quality of
maintenance for City of Arcadia parks and facilities.
75% responded that they have participated in programs offered by the
Recreation and Community Services Department with most participation
in youth and senior programs and 88% saying the quality of programs is
good to excellent.
Of those people who said they have not participated in recreation programs in Arcadia, the main
reasons were that they are too busy, were not aware of the programs, or the programs were held at
inconvenient times.
The responses to the community survey came from a wide range of ethnic categories including
White, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Asian Pacific, Hispanic, and Black. The survey results are a valid
representation of different cultural needs.
When asked what is the one program most needed by your household, the majority of responses
were for youth, teen and senior programs.
All age groups from 5 to 65+ were represented in the responses.
Community Phone Survey
ICG and Research Network Ltd. conducted a community-wide phone survey aimed at
including the opinions, use characteristics, and preferences of a representative cross-
section of the City's residents. The community-wide survey is a critical public planning
tool due to its ability to provide a statistically valid representation of all the households
in Arcadia as a whole rather than only those stakeholders or interested citizens who
choose to participate in outreach tools such as on-line questionnaires or public
workshops. The goal of such a representative survey is to generate unbiased, detailed
and accurate data regarding the true current demand from a statistically valid representation of all households in
Arcadia for recreation facilities and programs specific to the City.
The ability of the community-wide survey to provide a basis of information used to estimate current recreation
needs of the City's residents is the result of the design of a custom survey questionnaire for the City. The subject
areas of this survey were developed through conversations with Staff and the Master Plan Project
Team. Questionnaire topics included selected demography and attitudes regarding recreation, current usage
patterns of community/neighborhood parks and recreation facilities and programs, and desires for service
improvements. Profiles of users and non-users were also developed and specific reasons for non-use explored.
Research Network Ltd. completed 200 questionnaires among a random sample of City resident households
representing all geographic areas of the city, yielding an error margin of ± 7.1% at a 95% confidence level City-
wide.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 23
The scope assumed a questionnaire length of eight minutes with a maximum of five questions containing open
end/other specific opportunities. A total of 85% of completed interviews were completedin English while the
remainder were conducted in Mandarin Chinese. Eighty percent of the interviews were conducted via land-line
telephones and the remaining 20% were conducted via cell.
The following is a summary of the phone survey results. The written summary of the entire findings of the
survey is contained in Appendix B.
More than half (52%) of residents identified web-based sources including
“Internet/Website” and "City Website" as their primary information source.
"Mailed Information" was identified by more than one in ten residents (12%) as
their primary information source.
More than half of residents (56%) chose "Physical Fitness, Health and Well-
Being" as the most important benefit when seeking recreation.
More than eight of every ten Arcadia households (83%) reported having used
recreation facilities in the past year, comparable to the 86% average of other
communities surveyed. Of these recreation facility users, 88% reported most often using facilities
located in the City of Arcadia.
The six facilities most often identified as most often used included (1) Arcadia County Park, (2)
Arcadia Community Center, (3) Santa Anita Golf Course, (4) Santa Anita Race Track, (5) Tierra Verde
Park, and (6) parks outside Arcadia.
When asked from a list of recreation activities (which included Walking/Jogging/Running/Hiking on
Public Trails, Streets or Sidewalks for Recreation or Fitness; Bicycling on Public Trails or Paths for
Golf Activities; Indoor Activities for
Active Recreation or Fitness; Organized Sports Leagues for Youth;
Adults such as Basketball, Volleyball, Badminton, Martial Arts, Fitness, Yoga, Dance, the greatest
participation by residents (in order) included (1)“Walking/Jogging/Running/Hiking on Public Trails,
Streets or Sidewalks for Recreation or Fitness,” (2)“Indoor Activities for Adults,” (3)“Bicycling on
Public Trails or Paths for Active Recreation or Fitness,” (4)“Organized Youth Sports Leagues,” and
(5)“Golf Activities.”
Activities reportedly conducted most often outside the City of Arcadia included (1) “Bicycling” at 24%
of users, (2) “Golf” at 23% of users, (3) “Indoor Activities” at 21% and (4) “Organized Youth Sports”at
20%.
Nearly six in ten Arcadia households (59%) reported using recreation programs, classes or lessons in
the past year, somewhat higher than the 53% average of other communities surveyed. Of these
users, 76% reported using such programs at facilities located within the City of Arcadia.
Three in ten Arcadia households with a member 50 years or older
(30%) reported using senior recreation programs, classes or
lessons. Of these users, 83% reported participating in these
programs at a location within the City of Arcadia.
Eight in ten households polled (80%) with members aged 13 to 17
years stated these teens used teen recreation programs in the past
year. Of these teen program users, 84% reported most often
participating at a location in the City of Arcadia.
More than half of Arcadia households polled (56%) stated they had attended one or more special
events in the City of Arcadia in the past year. Most of these attendees (75%) reported such
attendance more than once during the past year.
Fully 93% of the residents polled stated they are Very or Somewhat Satisfied with existing park and
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 24
recreation programs in the City of Arcadia.
Nearly one-third of City of Arcadia households (32%) identified a preference for Active Recreation
Facilities and Programs while the next largest share of households (28%) preferred Fine Arts or
Performing Arts Facilities and Programs. Remaining households were evenly split between
preference for Classes, Lessons and Community Events or Open Space Preservation and
Enjoyment.
More than three in four (77%) City of Arcadia households identified
a desired recreation facility. One in five (23%) stated they desired
no new recreation facilities. The facilities most often mentioned
were, in aggregate, Swimming Pools (19%), Trails (12%), Fitness
Center (4%), and Gymnasium (4%).
Nearly two-thirds of households polled (64%) identified a desired new recreation program. The
remaining 36% of households stated they desired no new programs. The recreation programs most
often mentioned as desired, included Dance (8%), Fitness (6%), Personal Development (5%), and
Instruction Classes (5%).
Nearly two-thirds of households with teens present (64%) stated they would be somewhat or very
likely to participate in new teen programs if offered in Arcadia.

community events if offered in Arcadia.
The recreation events most often mentioned as desired included Farmers Market (26%), Concerts
(22%), Cultural/Diversity Events (12%), Fireworks (5%), Seasonal Events (5%), Bike Rides (3%), and
Street Fair (3%).
Senior Citizens Outreach and Surveys
ICG conducted a separate senior citizens survey aimed at getting input
from seniors using the senior center as to the recreation programs and
social services they use at the community/senior center and their
opinions on what they would like in the way of community/senior
center improvements and programs. ICG and staff attended an Arcadia
Travelers meeting to discuss the Recreation and Parks Master Plan and
speak with the seniors about their needs moving forward in the future.
The Senior Citizen Survey was different from the Community Phone
Survey and Web Based Public Survey, in that, it surveyed how seniors use the senior center and what specific
senior services they take advantage of at the center. The Phone Survey and Web/Hard Copy Survey focused on
the entire park system and what facility improvements are needed to serve programs for the entire community.
The Phone Survey and Web/Hard Copy Survey did contain responses from seniors; however, the responses
pertained to how they use all the parks and facilities in the City, not just the senior center facility.
ICG received 161 responses from the seniors group and the following is a summary of their opinions:
88% were aware of all the services available to them at the community/senior center.
The most popular programs and services that the seniors desired included:
o Carefree Café daily senior lunch program
o Tech Talk

o Health and wellness programs
o Support groups
o Reading rooms
o Outdoor plaza/quiet places
o Internet access
o Exercise and fitness classes

o Dance classes
o Art classes
o Counseling services
o Arcadia travelers
When asked if they would be willing to pay for senior activities, the majority said yes to travel (trips
and tours), fee based hobby and lifestyle classes, dances, and special events at lunch or dinner. A
majority were opposed to paying for personal services, game room space and activities, and health
and wellness programs.
92% responded they did not have any deterrents to participating, 8% responded that they have
physical or health deterrents that keep them from participating.
75% responded they participate in senior activities with their friends or family, while 25% said they
come alone.
Only 12% responded that they volunteer at the community/senior center.
55% said they own and know how to use a computer, while 45% said they did not own a computer.
85% responded they live independently while 15% said they live with family or in an assisted living
facility.
The age of the responders were as follows:
o 50 to 59 4%
o 60 to 69 36%
o 70 to 79 37%
o 80 to 89 16%

female and 21% were male.
All 100% of the responders said they use the Arcadia Community/Senior Center at least weekly.
40% also said they use the Arcadia Public Library.
Leadership Academy Focus Group/Comments
As part of the outreach process for the Recreation and Parks Master Plan, ICG and the Recreation and Community
Services Department made a special presentation to the Arcadia Leadership Academy. After presenting a
PowerPoint outlining the purpose and goals of the Master Plan to the group, an exercise was conducted where
each participant had the chance to provide comments, ideas, and suggestions for future programs and facilities
they thought were needed in Arcadia.

and opinions of Arcadia’s substantial Chinese population with regards to park,
facility, and program needs within the Chinese community. The Arcadia Chinese
Association Board meets monthly at the Chamber of Commerce to coordinate
community activities, discuss community issues, and to plan community events.
Twenty people attended the meeting and all were very excited about the City
undertaking the task of developing a master plan. After the presentation of the Master Plan process and goals,

Los AngelesCounty Arcadia Regional Park Community Workshop
Los Angeles County conducted a County wide needs assessment process at the same time the City of Arcadia is
preparing its Recreation and Parks Master Plan. The County process is an effort to learn about what park assets
and needs there are in the County. Each City within Los Angeles County is a study area. Each City was expected
to conduct a public workshop to get resident input on the assets and needs within its study area. The results of
the community workshop input into what the priorities should be for the County to include for Arcadia in its
Master Plan were as follows:
Arcadia County Park (Los Angeles County Park)
Lighted walking path
Inclusive playground
Joint use gym
Teen center
Lighted basketball courts (outdoor)
Extreme sports exercise course/climbing wall

PART 4 - FINDINGS, PROJECTED COSTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
4 A: Summary of Findings and Recommendations
The following is a summary of findings from the community outreach and needs assessment, and
recommendations for each park facility in Arcadia that were developed from the community input process and
demand analysis presented in the next sections. The facility recommendations can also be found in each park
graphic contained in Section 2. The projected total cost (rounded to the nearest thousand) for each facility
recommendation is included in the summary of recommendations and the breakout of projected specific costs are
contained in Appendix D.
The key findings of the Master Plan process regarding what park and facility improvements are needed for the park
system as identified in the community outreach are as follows (not prioritized):
Upgrade existing and provide new children’s play areas
Upgrade or replacement of older park restrooms/concessions
Installation of new lighted walking paths
Replace natural turf with synthetic turf for year round use of sports fields
Replace or upgrade ball field lighting
New dog parks and facilities
Additional shade over play structures
Picnic and barbeque improvements
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant access improvements
New teen facilities and programs
New facilities for community events
Upgrade of landscape areas with drought tolerant plant materials
Enhanced Watershed Management Plan (EWMP) state regulations compliant
Consistent park structures theme to identify City of Arcadia parks (new enhanced paving, brick
pilasters and park signage)
Improvements for sports fields such as new bleachers, dugouts, batting cages, team benches and
fencing
Parking lot upgrades and improvements
Each park site has been inventoried and analyzed as to the specific improvements needed at each location to
address the findings above. The following is the list of individual park improvements recommended from public
input for each site along with a summary of projected costs. The breakdown of projected costs for each park site is
contained in Appendix D.
4 B: 4 Tier List of Recommendations
The total projected cost to implement the recommended park and facility improvements is $51,398,077.
Obviously, the City does not have the financial resources or administrative capacity to implement all the
recommendations at once. The Master Plan is designed to allow the City to construct the park and facility
recommendations in phases over a period of years.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & NEEDS ANALYSIS – City of Arcadia Recreation & Parks Master Plan 30
Consequently, the recommendations have been divided into four tiers depending on their degree of need.
Tier 1 Recommendations are the greatest current need projects for existing program operation, or replacement,
or for safety reasons that the City will want to concentrate funding efforts on and try to implement as soon as
possible.
Tier 2 Recommendations are the next level of need and are projects the City can allocate resources to as Tier 1
projects are completed and funding becomes available.
Tier 3 Recommendations are needed for program expansion or will be needed in the future as current facilities
age and should be considered for future projects when Tier 1 and 2 recommendations are completed, or the City
is able to find a dedicated funding source, such as a specific grant, or community partner who wishes to provide
funding for the specific project.
Tier 4 Recommendations are desired improvements, but not critical in the near future and will be addressed over
time as higher tier recommendations are completed and future funding becomes available.
Staff will use this list each year during the City’s budget process to update its Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
for park and facility improvements.
There are several funding sources available to the City for implementing the
recommendations, including park impact fees, state and federal grant
programs, private foundation grants, enterprise funds, community
sponsorships, joint-funding agreements and general fund. Some funding
sources can only be used for certain types of improvements. For example,
Trail Grants can only be used for development and installing trails within the
park system. While City staff will generally prioritize annual budgets based
on Tier 1 recommendations, Tier 2, 3, or 4 recommendations may get funded ahead of Tier 1 recommendations if
specific grants or joint funding opportunities present themselves. The Tier List of Recommendations is meant to
be used as a guide by staff during the annual budget allocation process as a way to address the most important
priorities identified by the public outreach and needs analysis.

1PROGRAMINVENTORYCOMPARISON
The Recreation and Community Services Department offers a variety of programs which benefit the
Arcadia community. This report addresses the recreation program inventory and evaluates Arcadia
program offerings as compared to programs offered by surrounding cities to gauge the level of
programs and activities in Arcadia and identify any gaps in programming that would cause Arcadia
residents to seek services outside the City.
The following table provides an inventory of recreation programs and core services offered by Arcadia as
compared to San Marino, South Pasadena, San Gabriel, and Duarte. These cities were chosen for
comparison based on feedback from the community outreach surveys pertaining to where Arcadia
residents said they participated in recreation programs outside Arcadia.
There can be several reasons Arcadia residents attend recreation programs and activities in cities
outside Arcadia, including more convenient location, participating with friends and family, programs or
times not available in Arcadia, or lower program costs in other cities. To analyze if program offerings is a
factor, the report provides an analysis between Arcadia and the selected cities and compares Arcadia’s
program and activity inventory to their program offerings.
Programs or activities designated with an asterisk (*) are provided by an outside agency or community
partner.

The comparison analysis shows Arcadia programs and services exceed the offerings in surrounding cities,
thus lack of program offerings does not appear to be a reason Arcadia residents would participate in
programs outside Arcadia. Program offerings in Arcadia and recreation facilities available for
programming appear to be equally distributed between age groups and highly comparable to the types
of programs and facilities offered in surrounding cities. During the community outreach, people were
very complimentary of the programs in Arcadia and indicated a high degree of satisfaction with both
quantity and quality of programs. No new program offerings were suggested, as there are no gaps in
programming offered.
2PROGRAMFEECOMPARISON
One of the factors to consider for establishing fees is “Market Rate.” It is important to know what
surrounding cities are charging for similar programs to make sure Arcadia fees are consistent with the
market. If Arcadia sets its fees too high then Arcadia residents will seek recreation activities in
surrounding cities and not in Arcadia; consequently, if fees are too low then residents in other cities will
fill the lower priced classes and activities in Arcadia, thus impacting opportunities for Arcadia residents.
The following comparison chart shows what the surrounding cities of San Marino, South Pasadena, San
Gabriel, and Duarte are charging for similar programs.

** Compared to adult softball, as no adult basketball leagues are available
It appears that the fees Arcadia charges for sample programs are fairly consistent with what surrounding
cities charge for similar programs. Day camps, tot classes, youth classes, adult and senior activities are
within the range that does not incentivize Arcadia residents to seek programs outside the City, nor non-
Arcadia residents to prefer Arcadia to their own city because of costs. Some of the large differences in
tennis program fees are contributed to class size and court availability. The large difference in tiny tot
karate is attributed to Arcadia and San Marino’s program being offered through a commercial
establishment, while the other cities operate the classes within their recreation center. The same is true
of youth cooking classes in San Marino and South Pasadena, where they are offered in a commercial
business.
Arcadia can probably expect to get a higher percentage of non-residents in its dog obedience classes, as
most other cities do not offer them and the fee in San Marino is substantially higher than Arcadia.
As part of the scope of services for the Master Plan, the City requested ICG to do a comparison of the
rental rate for the Museum Education Center in Arcadia to see if it is within market rates for other like
facilities in the San Gabriel Valley and throughout Southern California in cities with like economic and
cultural demographics. The Museum Education Center contains restrooms, a refrigerator, stove, round
tables, rectangular tables, chairs, a projector and a wall divider to separate the room into two rooms.
A search for comparable facilities yielded the following data showing a rental fee comparison based on
the rental rate for “Non-Commercial Resident and Community Group” rentals. The facilities chosen for
comparison have similar amenities and capacity. They include cities surrounding Arcadia and cities in
Southern California with similar economic and cultural demographics.

3ESTABLISHINGFEES
The Department’s goal in pricing programs, services, and facilities is to set prices in a manner that
balances user fees with taxpayer investment. Pricing takes into consideration the following:
Program benefit to the City’s residents
The financial ability of the City to support the program or special activity with public funds
Users’ ability to pay
The Department also recognizes not all programs and facilities are the same, there is no “one fee fits all,”
but if possible, a full or partial cost recovery model will be utilized when establishing fees.
Each year, the department will evaluate the programs, services and fees and determine if adjustments
are necessary. The City of Arcadia typically does this with all departments on an annual basis. Each fee
and/or adjustment is justified and approved by the City Council.
4TITLEIXANDAB2404REVIEWANDANALYSIS
The following provides a review and analysis of the 1972 Title IX Federal Anti-Discrimination Law and
State of California Assembly Bill AB 2404. Assembly Bill 2404 pertains to gender discrimination in sports
programs and is specifically aimed at ensuring girls and women have equal access to sports and
recreation facilities and programs under the direct operation or control of city, county, and state
agencies. It requires that girls be accorded “opportunities for participation in community youth athletic
programs equal, both in quality and scope, to those accorded to boys.”
The “Coaching Corps and Fair Play for Girls in Sports Association,” a project of the Legal Aid Society-
Employment Law Center, has developed the following implementation guidelines for recreation and
parks departments to follow in order to comply with Title IX and AB 2404. They recommend that:
a)Departments should keep records of gender participation in sports programs operated both
directly by the department and by sports organizations the department allocates fields and
sports facilities space to.
b)Departments should use the collected participation data when determining allocation of fields
and facilities to ensure girls’ sports programs have equal access to safe and well maintained
fields (to ensure boys’ programs do not have better fields to play on than girls programs); equal
access to storage units for equipment; equal practice times at facilities; equal support amenities,
such as scoreboards, dugouts, batting cages, bleachers, restrooms, locker rooms, etc.
c)Departments operating direct sports programs should ensure girls’ sports programs have equally
trained and qualified coaches and officials as those of boys’ programs and are assigned to
programs in an equal manner.
d)Departments should ensure that facility development and improvements are gender neutral and
afford equal gender access.
e) Departments should ensure that girls’ sports programs have equal access to advertising for
participants, i.e. in recreation brochures, City websites, distribution of flyers, posting of banners,
etc.
f)Departments should develop policy and criteria for regularly notifying youth athletic
organizations and involved personnel that they cannot discriminate on the basis of gender in the
programs and activities they operate.
5
In addition to the above operational guidelines both Title IX and AB 2404 require the City to have in
place a “Gender Equity Grievance Procedure,” to publish a “Title IX-AB 2404 Grievance Form,” and to
appoint a staff member as a “Title IX-AB 2404 Coordinator.”
In reviewing the Recreation and Community Services Department’s operations as it pertains to
compliance with Title IX and AB 2404, the Master Plan study found that the Department does do a good
job of notifying youth athletic organizations and involved personnel that they cannot discriminate on the
basis of gender in the programs and activities they operate. The Department conducts regularly
scheduled meetings with all the sports organizations it allocates field space and facilities to and at these
meetings City staff informs the groups of the anti-discrimination laws. Staff is also diligent in making
sure athletic field allocations and facility allocations do not result in any unequal access for girls’ sports
programs.
The design of all park and facility improvements in the Master Plan has been developed to ensure equal
gender access.
It is the policy of the Recreation and Community Services Department to achieve gender equity in youth
sports programs that are operated on City-owned land and within City facilities. It is the Department’s
goal that all youth may aspire to and have the opportunity to participate in City sports programs that
meet their interests and capabilities.
As part of the Recreation and Parks Master Plan process, the Department will implement a “Title IX-AB
2404 Notification Procedure Policy,” as shown in Exhibit 1; the “Gender Equity Grievance Procedures,”
as shown in Exhibit 2; and the “Title IX-AB 2404 Grievance Form,” as shown in Exhibit 3. Finally, the
Department will appoint a staff member as the “Title IX-AB 2404 Coordinator” for the Department and
make sure that person understands the Department’s Gender Equity Plan and their responsibility for
communicating it to youth sports groups and in processing a gender or sexual harassment complaint.
By implementing the guidelines and policies outlined above, the Department can ensure that it is in
compliance with both Title IX and AB 2404.

Exhibit 1 – City of Arcadia
“Title IX – AB 2404 Notification Procedure Policy”
PURPOSE: Policy and criteria for regularly notifying youth athletic organizations, employees and
involved personnel that they cannot discriminate on the basis of gender in the activities or programs
they operate
In an effort to regularly communicate to employees, volunteers and sports organization personnel the
importance of non-discrimination practices on the basis of gender regarding youth athletic and
recreational programming, the following measures shall be implemented:
1.The Department will provide the appropriate annual training for Recreation and
Community Services Department staff, contractors, and Youth Sports Community
Organization Volunteers to attend for information and compliance regarding federal and
state anti-discrimination law as it relates to youth athletic and recreational programming.
2.In the event that the representative who received training chooses to resign or is no
longer part of the organization, such organization would need to send a new
representative to complete the anti-discrimination training. Failure to do so would place
the organization in non-compliance position with City regulations.
Non-compliance will be defined as: Failure to maintain at least one active representative
that is currently trained (by the City) to prevent discrimination in youth athletics. Any
league that falls into non-compliance regarding this issue will suffer suspension of field
access rights, as granted under the Facility Use Agreement between the City and Said
Organization/League.

Exhibit 2 – City of Arcadia
“Gender Equity Grievance Procedures”
PURPOSE: Resolving youth athletic complaints alleging discrimination on the basis of gender
The City will maintain gender equitable opportunities for youth who participate in sports programs. In
the event that an inequitable situation is discovered or believed to be happening, the City provides four
methods to file a grievance regarding discrimination of youth athletes or youth athletic program on the
basis of sex, sexual orientation, race, nationality, ethnic origin, color, religion or disability.
1.Contact the City’s Title IX–AB 2404 Anti-Discrimination Coordinator (Ryan Wright) at
626.821.4398, and communicate any concerns and to obtain an AB 2404 Grievance Form.
Upon completion of the City’s AB 2404 Grievance Form, the issue(s) will be investigated and
reviewed for further action, which may include the Director of Recreation and Community
Services, and Recreation and Parks Commission. The Recreation and Community Services
office is located at 375 Campus Drive, P.O. Box 60021, Arcadia, CA 91066-6021.
2.Attend a Recreation and Parks Commission meeting, and voice any concerns during oral
communications.
After doing so:
The Recreation and Parks Commission may put the item on the agenda at an upcoming
meeting for further discussion.
During the upcoming meeting the item will be discussed, and if it requires action, the
Recreation and Parks Commission may ask staff to investigate the item further, or make a
recommendation that will be forwarded to the City Council for final approval.
3.Attend a City Council meeting, and voice any concerns during oral communications.
After doing so:
The City Council may ask staff to put the item on the agenda at an upcoming meeting for
further discussion.
During the upcoming meeting the item will be discussed and if it requires action, the City
Council may ask staff to investigate the item further, or make a decision for final action.
The grievance procedure does not restrict the right to file a complaint with any state or federal agency
responsible for the enforcements of anti-discrimination legislation.
It is the commitment of the City to confront and eliminate discrimination, providing gender equitable
opportunities for all youth involved in sports programs. The meaning of gender equitable opportunities
in this City is defined as: The absence of discrimination and unfavorable treatment of citizens; the
promotion of gender equitable sports programs; and the commitment to ensure equitable support of
facilities, fields, and promotion of girls’ and boys’ athletics programs.

Communities Compared
Table 1 below compares these recreation benefit responses from City of Arcadia residents to
statistics derived from twenty-seven other California municipalities where similar work has been
conducted. Because each survey questionnaire is custom-designed for each agency, the
number of comparison surveys varies by question.
The residents of the City of Arcadia reported a higher level of interest in Physical Fitness, Health
and Well-Being benefits than all communities previously surveyed. The share of residents
choosing Learning Opportunities for Hobby, self-improvement or Career Development as most
important was above the average posted historically. Conversely, the two remaining benefit
categories received a lower than average response from City of Arcadia residents polled.

Note
The data presented in Figures 5 may appear counter intuitive to representatives of organized
sports leagues for youth and to agency officials who regularly host comments or testimony
from them. To confirm the validity of the participation levels, it is important to recognize the
demography of the area population. Specifically, youth ages 5 to 14 (the prime ages for youth
sports) constituted less than 13% of the total City population as of the 2010 Census.
