2016-2017 - Great Park Public Outreach Surveys

 BMX tracks only take 3 acres and have a minimal impact on the environment  There needs to be more bike trails. There are high school mountain biking teams in the City that need a place to ride and train for events.  A trail for bikes around the perimeter of the park would be beneficial for those who do not like riding on concrete.  There needs to be dirt trails for mountain biking. Mountain bikers and BMX riders do not like decomposed granite and instead prefer having dirt.  When is the Upper Bee and Bosque Trails going to open? Will this trail be available for bikes? Will it be paved?  Families were promised that the BMX track that was removed from Orange would be replaced  Irvine would be a great location for a BMX track because it would be centralized  There is a lot of support from families, competitors, athletes, manufacturers, retail companies, etc. to have a local BMX track  The track can be a revenue‐producing destination for the City Families Forward would like to bring back the idea of a non‐profit village that incorporates different social services into one location. Lennar and other stakeholders are on board and excited to get started, once approved by the City.  Supporters would like to resurrect the original proposal COMMUNITY ICE RINK  The people who live in East Cypress Village are concerned with the traffic the ice rink will bring in  Are there plans to widen Great Park Boulevard?  Will there be charged parking? People who live nearby are concerned that people who want to go to the park are going to park in the residential areas  Residents who live nearby should have a permit so that people going to the park can’t park in front of our homes CENTER FOR COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS PROPOSAL BY FAMILIES FORWARD  It needs public comment  Proposal needs to be revisited  Madelyn provided a copy of the Concept Plan from September 2006 

CULTURAL TERRACE 

What is the timeline for the Cultural Terrace?  Would like to see a lake and dog park in Cultural Terrace  Is the Cultural Terrace still in development?

DEVELOPMENT AND LAND UTILIZATION  There should be a lake, dog park, museum, library, places for picnics, hiking, running – these types of features would attract more people  Is there a plan to connect adjacent communities to the park?  There should be a place where people can do Tai Chi  Honor California with an orchard
