CLEARLAKE, Calif. – The Clearlake Planning Commission is set to hold a workshop next week to review the city's master parks plan.
The meeting will be held beginning at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 20, in the council chambers at Clearlake City Hall, 14050 Olympic Drive .
The commission sits jointly as the Clearlake Parks and Recreation Committee.
The city's adopted 2003-2013 Parks Master Plan was prepared by Roseville-based Foothill Associates.
The 95-page document “establishes the planning framework for the future acquisition, development, and implementation of the City park system. The Goals and Policies in this master plan provide specific guidance on critical master plan implementation issues so that all aspects of the park system development and operation will be consistent with the agreed upon Goals and Policies.”
The master plan covers nearly 40 acres of city parks: Austin Park and Haverty Field, 22.5 acres; Highland Park, 1.5 acres; and Redbud Park and boat launch, 15.7 acres.
In addition, it looks at other park resources around the county, from nearby Anderson Marsh State Historic Park to Clear Lake State Park, the Cache Creek Management Area and the Mendocino National Forest, Cow Mountain, Boggs Mountain Demonstration State Forest, Blue Lakes and more.
The plan also gives guidance on park acquisition, planning and the development process.
The Clearlake Planning Commission and Parks and Recreation Committee's membership is composed of Chairman Carl Webb, Vice Chair Cheryl Hutchinson, and commissioners Bill Perkins, Alvaro Valencia and Mike Vandiver.
