o Knows Pete Carmichael personally o The City can make money at the facility by renting bikes
o Local schools/PTA groups currently don’t have facilities to hold proper bike safety training for the kids o A bicycling facility would be great for Irvine’s tourism; hosting the BMX World Championship can bring in upwards of $18M
COMMUNITY ICE RINK
Most rinks are open from 2am‐12pm This is really great, we need more. Great addition because the City needs more
Hotels in Irvine want to bring in larger sporting events, connect sports with people. Want to solidify events at the rink Will this be used for basketball? All big events and national competition can be at this rink Is the City building the rink? Is inspection and testing taken care of? How big is the facility? What will parking look like for the facility? Is there demand for the rink? Will the rink allow for speed skating? Is the rink all indoors? When does construction start? Who are the Anaheim Ducks affiliates? Excited for the opening of the Community Ice Facility This is going to be a wonderful facility Will this facility live up to its name “Community Ice Facility?” CULTURAL TERRACE Cultural Terrace should mimic Balboa Park’s “Artist Village” Dedicate area in the Cultural Terrace for a botanical garden Is there going to be a botanical garden? Will there be an arboretum? Need a Cultural Terrace that is unique, creative, renowned How did the City come up with how the acres in the Great Park are going to be utilized? How were recommendations made on what to develop in the Great Park? Did the City Council vote on what’s going to be built? Is the City working with Five Point to figure out what to put in the Great Park? Five Point is a home developer, they should not be involved with developing Sports Park and Cultural Terrace Is Five Point calling all the shots or is the City going to take input from the community? This has taken too long From a Beacon Park resident: Is there a cohesive plan about what the Great Park will look like? Worried about traffic noise and safety of their homes. What’s in this park that makes it so great? DEVELOPMENT AND LAND UTILIZATION
