C GOAL PF-2. EVALUATE OPPORTUNITIES AND IMPLEMENT <br /> IMPROVEMENTS TO EXISTING PARK LAND. <br /> Action PF-2.1. Evaluate opportunities to improve security <br /> and protection against vandalism at Conway Park and <br /> other parks with similar issues. <br /> Currently, Conway Park has a skate feature, a one-quarter <br /> basketball court, a playscape for two-year-olds, and picnic <br /> facilities. Since frequent vandalism has been an issue over <br /> the past several years, the City should explore additional <br /> opportunities to improve surveillance and security at this park <br /> as well as other parks in the parks system.This could include <br /> additional or more frequent police presence,the installation <br /> of security cameras, or other solutions which improve actual <br /> or perceived impressions of safety. <br /> Action PF-2.2. Consider upgrading the existing sport fields <br /> at Gary Park. <br /> The City recently added four new baseball/softball fields, <br /> bringing the total number of fields to eight. This addition has <br /> been beneficial in accommodating the increased demand <br /> for this recreational opportunity. However,the previously <br /> existing four fields are in need of renovation. For the next <br /> Capital Improvements Program (CIP) update,the quality and <br /> usability of the existing four fields should be reviewed. Items <br /> that should be taken into consideration include the renovation <br /> of the other four fields so that they match the design and <br /> quality of the four new fields, adding lighting, improving the <br /> appearance of the entrance to the park, adding a box culvert <br /> (to facilitate improved access during rain events), and adding <br /> additional parking for tournaments. <br /> _ Ay* • • <br /> • <br /> 4/4%. <br /> eiovviliP3 '"@I vel <br /> 0 <br /> Chapter 3 System Analysis, Needs, and Recommendations 69 <br />
