El Dorado Hills Old Executive Golf Course Property Vision – Version 3 An El Dorado County Recreational “Diamond in the Rough ”

Based Upon Previous Planning Documents and Current Input From The Community  El Dorado Hills Community Services Department (EDHCSD) Survey  Community Economic Development Advisory Committee (CEDAC) Survey

El Dorado Hills Community Services Department (EDHCSD) Survey May 8, 2014 Objectives:  Evaluate registered voters’ and property owners’ support and priorities regarding acquisition of the “Former Executive Golf Course”  Measure the level of support for a local funding measure to acquire the “Former Executive Golf Course” and preserve as open space or develop into a community park

Results:  The survey found sufficient support within the community to move forward with a ballot measure at the rate of $68 per parcel.  Continue to focus efforts on top priorities of your community:  Preserving open space  Improve going forward as funds become available and community needs are further identified  Slow down development  Reduce Traffic  Continue to communicate the District’s strong accountability and oversight of funds.  Build a coalition of supporters, to include business and apartment owners, elected officials, community/student leaders and other stakeholders.  Parcel Tax Election is currently the best option.

Community Economic Development Advisory Committee (CEDAC) Survey, January 21, 2014 Objective:  To better understand the EDH community members view as priorities. Results:  High density housing is not favorable, but also do not want sprawl  Desire for more commercial in appropriate areas  Enjoy open space  Increase quality jobs and industry  Road improvements as new development goes in; be mindful of pedestrian and bike access  Support for pedestrian and bike trail system  Community sports complex!

Imagine The Possibilities… To Make the Fiber of Our Community Stronger

Part One El Dorado Hills Community Needs and Requirements

Volleyball Walking trails Bocce Ball Basketball Olympic Swimming Center Lighted Fields Concessions and Restrooms Softball Baseball Soccer Lacrosse Football Track Tennis Badminton Sports Fields in our Own Back Yard!

Having these sports facilities available in the center of our community will be a great asset to our aspiring Olympians. No more travel to other communities to practice our sport of choice. This will give our young athletes what they need to achieve greatness. Our seniors will also be able to take advantage of their favorite team sports right in our backyard. This is what our community has been waiting for!

Conference Rooms Game Rooms Exercise Rooms Sports Equipment Rooms Party Rooms Civic Event Spaces

Senior Activities and Sports Seniors are a growing part of our community. By combining the amenities of seniors in this vision, there are many benefits to be derived and avoid duplications of effort now in the works. A current plan Note 1 for a Senior Center include:  A complex with plans to include a pool, tennis court and community room accommodating 500 to 600 people with the option to partition the space into smaller rooms.  Physical therapy pool  Exercise room  Classrooms for cards, crafts, etc. By having an overarching vision and looking at the existing Senior Center located at 990 Lassen Lane and the existing CSD facilities at 1021 Harvard Way, many opportunities exist to satisfy the needs of Seniors as well as the rest of the community.

Part Two El Dorado County Focus

The Old Executive Golf Course is Located at the Western tip of El Dorado County and is An Integral Part of The County.

Proper use of the EDH Old Executive Golf Course Property Can Have A Positive Fiscal Effect On the Whole County South Lake Tahoe The vision begins by looking at the needs of our EDH residents. Then it looks at how the Old Executive Golf Course property can become an integral part of the rest of the County. The use of this property can have a positive influence on the health and welfare of EDH residents by providing much needed sports and recreational facilities for our children, adults and seniors. Further benefits will be realized by the rest of El Dorado County by bringing in more visitors to participate in the County’s existing recreational activities such as snow skiing, river rafting, hiking, fishing, boating, visiting gold country, and visiting wine country to name a few.

Swim Meet Scenario The old Executive Golf Course site, known as “EDH Central Park”, is now a world class recreational facility. The Olympic sized pool and training facility, now located at the EDH Central Park, is holding a swim meet hosting many northern California communities. This is a three day event and over 400 people are expected to attend. While here, participants will visit local restaurants and shops in Town Center and Raley’s shopping center and stay in available hotel space in El Dorado Hills, Cameron Park and Placerville. There will be plenty of parking in the onsite two acre tree lined parking facility. Access to the facility will be off Highway 50 at the Silva Valley Interchange. From there, take the new frontage road which will take you directly to the facility while not interfering with the normal flow of traffic on El Dorado Hills Boulevard. Many visitors have planned ahead and will arrive a few days early or leave a few days after the event and visit local wineries, gold rush towns and Old Town Placerville to name a few. During the day, off hours can be spent walking the beautiful trails in EDH Central Park or relax with a slow game of Bocce Ball.
