Article I. Background and Objectives This Memorandum of Understanding outlines the responsibilities of COUNTY, DISTRICT AND CITY as they relate to the preparation of planning documents needed to produce plans for a skatepark complex at McInnis Park in San Rafael. These planning documents are necessary in order to have a detailed conceptual plan and cost estimate for the purpose of preparation and submission of grant applications for State Park Bond Act funding and other potential funding sources for the installation of the skatepark facility. Funding requests will be a collaborative effort between the COUNTY, DISTRICT AND CITY. It is a desire of the COUNTY, DISTRICT AND CITY to build skatepark facilities in their jurisdictions. The lack of suitable sites for such facilities has deterred progress thus far. The COUNTY, DISTRICT, AND CITY have determined that McInnis Park is the best site to locate a skatepark facility that will serve the constituents of all three agencies. It has also been determined that a collaborative effort will increase the opportunities for successful fund raising through grants and other resources, for the development of the facility. Article II. Statement of Understandings 1. COUNTY agrees to provide land at McInnis Park for the future site of a skatepark. 2. COUNTY, DISTRICT and CITY agree that designing the site and park, including cost estimates, is the essential first step in developing the park. It is also agreed that community involvement, especially youth involvement, is a necessary step in designing the park. 3. COUNTY agrees to hire a landscape architect, for the sum of $20,000, to act as project coordinator and be responsible for the design of infrastructures and landscaping that will support the site. 4. COUNTY agrees to pay for surveying and civil engineering work up to a maximum of $10,000. 5. CITY agrees to contract with a skatepark architect, up to a maximum of $20,700. The architect must specialize in skatepark design and have experience in skatepark design and supervision of construction of skateparks. COUNTY has final approval of the architect. 6. COUNTY will oversee all plans and design work related to the skatepark project. Final plans will require the approval by all three agencies. 7. CITY will oversee all community meetings, including youth involvement, and public relations dealing with the conceptual planning process of the skatepark. 8. COUNTY, DISTRICT AND CITY will work collaboratively in the preparation of grant applications, the securing of donations and contributions, and other means to assist the financing of the construction of the skatepark.

September 26, 2001 Mr. Rod Gould, City Manager City of San Rafael 1400 5th Avenue San Rafael, California 94903 Dear Mroould: ROA: Thank you for the very productive meeting you hosted the other day. I am glad to see both the County and the City of San Rafael agree on what is most important in the McInnis Skateboard Park project, which is to get this safe but exciting park on the ground, available for use by the kids, as soon as possible. [a 002 County Parks Open Space District Landscape Services Marin Center County Fair Convention s Visitors Bureau Civic Center Concessions & Tours Frances M Bngmann Director Dennis Jauch AssistAnt Director I understand that you are now the lead agency applying for the state grant through the Roberti Z'berg portion of Prop 12, and that the Resolution your Council has to sign certifies that the applicant has or will have sufficient funds to operate and maintain the Slcatepark Project. May this letter serve as commitment of the County of Marin to accept all maintenance of the skateboard park as part of our McInnis Park. Our current staffing levels and other resources are sufficient to handle these maintenance duties. (I believe it is agreed between your Parks staff and ours that the skateboard park itself will not have on-site staffing). McInnis Park is one of our most financially secure parks that we operate as we receive significant revenues from field use and fees paid by the McInnis Park Golf Center. I hope this letter serves in giving you assurance that there will be sufficient funds to operate and maintain the Project. Dennis and I look forward to working with you and Carlene to see this through.
