2016-2017 - Great Park Public Outreach Surveys

South Coast Chinese Cultural Center – Sunday, April 2, 2017

AQUATIC CENTER/POOLS 

Please build an aquatic center.

 

Where can an aquatics facility be built? Has the water park been built yet?

 A water park would really complement the ice rink  Good idea to put water park on the Irvine Company property  A water park would take between 10‐25 acres

BICYCLING FACILITIES 

A BMX track only takes 3 acres and has a minimal impact on the environment.  BMX is good for kids and families. o Can hold national events with BMX at the Great Park o Location will pull in a lot of riders o BMX was invented in Orange County o BMX is an individual sport that a lot of kids participate in.

COMMERCIAL/RETAIL  Is there going to be an area that will have an entertainment district or commercial center?  Where are the food courts going to be?  There’s a lot of space to be developed as an entertainment mecca  Is there space to put another Irvine Spectrum within the Great Park? COMMUNITY ICE RINK  The ice rink is a good idea, but nobody in Irvine plays ice hockey. How will that facility benefit anybody if only a small fraction of people play hockey in Southern California?  Can we make the ice facility into multi‐use?  The ice facility can be used for the Olympic Trials  What area will it be at?  When will it open?  Where’s the front – where is the entrance facing?  What is the official name of the facility?  Can you put concrete floors down?  Can it be used as an indoor facility for other sports?  Is it hockey the entire time, or can you bring in wood floors?  Will there be a regular schedule for children’s activities?  Can it be used for badminton on a regular schedule?  Kids want somewhere to go  This rink will be good for the community because other rinks are closed  Why is the ice rink so big?  Do we have a large enough population for four sheets of ice?  Will enough people use it?  Is the facility going to be considered for the 2024 Olympics?  How big is it compared to the Lake Forest skate rink?  What’s the maximum capacity?  Will there be opportunities to cover the ice?  The ice rink is exciting, I’m happy this is one of the permanent facilities
