INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS - PLAYGROUND AND ATHLETIC
FIELD LIGHTING SYSTEMS
Within the Parks and Community Services Department(PACED) Strategic Plan, a strategy under
Issue III: "What services should be provided?" calls for "systematic evaluations of services and
programs offered or sponsored by the department." To that end, the Year III (FY 1994-95)
Work Plan identified a tactic to "develop issue papers on the present inventory of athletic field
lighting systems and playground equipment for presentation to the Park Board, City Manager and
City Council by June 1, 1995."
Over the past six (6) months the PACSD has performed inventory updates, on-site inspections
and evaluations of existing playgrounds and athletic field lighting systems. Through this
investigation it has been determined that due to declining conditions and recent removals these
two highly used recreational amenities' service levels are being reduced. The lack of funding
for replacement of units which have exhausted their useful life, increased maintenance demands
due to the aging infrastructure and reduced operating funds to address maintenance has
accelerated removal of these facilities.
The two attached Issue Papers address each infrastructure item, individually. These reports
identify the existing inventory, standards, replacement/removal issue, prioritization criteria and
strategy for replacement.
On April 18, 1995 both reports were presented to the Parks and Community Services Advisory
Board. After in depth discussions, the Board endorsed both plans' renovation criteria and
strategies.
Realizing that limited resources exist for these renovation plans, the Board and PACSD would
recommend the first emphasis be placed on playgrounds due primarily to the fact that
playgrounds' primary users, children, are a key building block of strong neighborhoods. To this
end, the PACSD proposes to implement the first four (4) projects identified in the Play Area
Renovation Plan. These improvements would restore service levels lost through previously
removed play equipment and install playground surfacing systems which meets Consumer
Product Safety Commission guidelines. The locations of these improvements would be Delga,
Harvey Street, Rosedale Plaza and Englewood Parks. Should the City Council endorse this
action plan, staff will prepare an M&C recommending the transfer of funds from the Capital
Improvement Program and Community Development Block Grant completed project accounts to
individual play area renovation projects. The total transfer would be $173,240.

ro ATHLETIC FIELD LIGHTING ISSUES
Within the Parks and Community Services Department (PACSD) Strategic Plan, a strategy under
Issue III: "What services should be provided?" calls for "systematic evaluations of services and
programs offered or sponsored by the department." To that end, the Year III (FY 1994-95) Work
Plan identified a tactic to "develop issue papers on the present inventory of athletic field lighting
systems and playground equipment for presentation to the Park Board, City Manager and City
Council by June 1, 1995."
Athletic field documentation for calender year 1994 shows a total of 7680 games/events were
conducted on the City's 39 lighted athletic fields. An estimated 47% of all games required the
use of the lighting systems. With the projected number of participants to remain the same, the
importance of maintaining the present inventory of lighted facilities has heightened. Unfortunately
these types of facilities are presently being reduced due to removals for deteriorating conditions.
In January, 1995, the Department determined that the two (2) Rosemont Park softball fields'
wooden light poles had deteriorated to an unacceptable condition necessitating the removal of all
16 wooden poles (8 per field). In an effort to identify all deficiencies regarding existing athletic
op*, field lighting systems citywide, the Department performed on-site inspections of all 39 lighted
athletic fields.
The following information outlines the City's existing inventory of lighted athletic fields,
standards of lighting and construction, replacement issues, prioritization, and probable costs.
EXISTING INVENTORY
The PACSD maintains and operates 39 lighted athletic fields throughout the City. Of these 39
systems, 20 use wood poles to support light fixtures. All wood pole systems were installed prior
to 1983 and the average age of these installations is 21 years (there is a high likelihood that the
average age is much higher but due to inadequate records actual life for many of the poles cannot
be determined). The 20 wood pole systems are made up of 182 poles ranging in height of 55 feet
to 90 feet.
Inspections of all the remaining 18 locations (excluding Rosemont #1 and #2) on February 2 and
3, 1995 determined that five (5) fields had some poles which should be considered for removal.
Sites include Hallmark, Rockwood #1, Rockwood #3, Sycamore #4 and Lincoln. These
determinations were made by wood density sounding and visual inspections. While there appears
to be no immediate hazard to the general public, removal of some poles within these systems will
most likely be necessary within the next 6 to 12 months. These five (5) ballfields have a total of
rol 48 poles of which 14 will most likely need to be removed within 6-12 months.
' k Attachment "A" to this report, lists all lighted athletic fields, there primary use, pole type and date
installed/estimated date installed.
STANDARD OF LIGHTING AND CONSTRUCTION
Desired lighting levels have changed significantly since the early 1970's for all forms and levels
of softball, baseball and soccer. Many of the City's older facilities meet lighting levels of less
than 20 footcandles on infield areas and less that 10 footcandles on outfield areas (Note: a
footcandle is a measurement of illuminization where the higher the number the more light.
Examples include 1 to 2 footcandles for parking areas, 5 to 10 footcandles for building entries,
0.6 to 2 footcandles for thoroughfares and 70 footcandles for library reading rooms).
The Department's light level standard was increased on all fields built after 1985 to 30 footcandles
on the infield and 20 in the outfield. This action was taken to insure that the City's facilities were
meeting the American Softball Association (ASA) standards for competitive playfields. While the
City has specified this level of lighting since 1985 on newly constructed fields, some nationally
recognized organizations are now recommending 50 footcandles infield and 30 outfield.
In addition, metal pole construction became a standard of the Department in 1983. This action
was taken to reduce maintenance and provide for safer lighting systems. The following outlines
the advantages and disadvantages of both wood and metal poles.
Wood Poles
Advantages Disadvantages
• Lower material costs • Electric conduit is attached
• Installation costs are to the pole, making it
less due to no subject to vandalism

reduces potential for
vandalism and liability.
• Twisting of poles does not
occur thus fixtures stay in
the designated alignment.
• Concrete pier footing and
pole less likely to decompose
due to natural weathering.
REPLACEMENT ISSUES
Justification for replacement of Rosemont ballfield lights and others which might be removed in
the future should center on the lost opportunities for recreation. While a number of lighted
facilities are used for scheduling of league play, many are simply venues for community and
neighborhood based unprogrammed activities.
The following is a list of issues surrounding the decision to replace systems which are ruled to be
unsafe.
• Revenues for rentals would decrease should replacements not be made. This fact would
be somewhat neutralized by expenditures of maintenance and electric usage. In the case
of Rosemont, these two fields have averaged an annual revenue of$5450. Expenditures
in FY 1993-94 for power usage and maintenance of the lighting system totalled $3795.
• Users will be required to travel to other locations. While we live in a very mobile society,
those less mobile might be excluded from this form of recreation.
• Not replacing facilities will have an impact on other locations. A shift in use to other
ballfields could result in overuse or, in order to manage the carry capacity of those
facilities, restriction of use and the resultant reduction of recreational opportunities may
be necessary.
• Much of today's population participates in recreational play centers in the late afternoon
and early evening. Not replacing lighting systems would remove an estimated 50% of the
time when a facility can be used.
. -3-
• Recent changes in electrical rates makes it more advantageous to maintain or upgrade
existing lighting systems rather than develop new facilities. All the existing lighting
systems are metered and usage fees are based upon the "miscellaneous municipal service
rate". New developments will be charged the "general usage rate" which can be between
168% and 233% of the current cost.
PRIORITIZATION CRITERIA
In determining the most effective use of limited funding resources the following criteria was
developed to establish a priority ranking to renovate ballfield lighting systems.
1. Restore service in areas where systems have been completely removed.
2. Conduct replacement in areas which have been identified for removal consideration during
the next 6-12 months.
3. Focus on facilities which are either used, or have the greatest potential to be used by
youth.
4. Focus on facilities which provide the only opportunity to a nearby neighborhood or
community.
5. Give priority to facilities which have a higher documented scheduled use.
6. Give priority to fields which have the greatest revenue or net profit potential.
PROBABLE COSTS
There are a number of scenarios in renovating lighting systems which would impact capital,
maintenance and operating costs. The least expensive alternative in.capital cost would be to
replace existing or already removed wood poles with wood poles using the existing electrical
infrastructure and fixtures. The estimated cost including materials, equipment and labor is $4250
per pole or $34,000 for a complete eight (8) pole ballfield. To accomplish these repairs on both
fields at Rosemont (16 poles) and other poles identified as needing to be replaced at Hallmark,
Rockwood #1, Rockwood #3, Sycamore #4 and Lincoln (a total of 30 poles) the estimated cost
would be $127,500. While this action would address the most pressing needs, it can be
anticipated that as other wood poles age a similar action would be necessary and resultant costs
would be incurred.
The next alternative which would be a more permanent solution for both capital and maintenance
costs is to install new metal poles at each site. The average cost per field would be $90,000. This
figure includes materials, equipment and labor.
The next logical step in providing an upgraded system which would lessen maintenance and
operating costs would be to replace the electrical infrastructure for each field in addition to the
poles. This action would include new wiring in conduit buried underground to each metal pole
to service existing fixtures as well as future additional fixtures. The average cost per field would
be $107,000.
-4-
To complete the upgrades to existing recommended lighting levels, additional fixtures would need
to be installed. To bring all softball fields up to 32 fixtures and baseball to 49 fixtures per field
which would enable the PACSD to achieve standard lighting levels, the-aye= cost would be an
additional $20,000 per field. Inclusive of new metal poles, electrical infrastructure and additional
fixtures the average cost would be $127,000 per field.
SUMMARY OF REPLACEMENT
Using the beforementioned criteria for prioritizing fields to be renovated and the most permanent
solution which would reduce maintenance costs as well as provide a more safe condition, the
PACSD would recommend the replacement of lighting systems as found on Attachment B and C,
Summary of Replacement.
Realizing that limited resources exist, this renovation program or schedule of replacement would
become the Department's guide for future actions when funding is secured. This plan will
strategically drive efforts and decisions to restore and maintain service levels as it relates to
athletic field lighting.

PLAYGROUND RENOVATION

JUNE, 1995
PLAYGROUND RENOVATION ISSUES
Within the Parks and Community Services Department (PACSD) Strategic Plan, a strategy under
Issue III: "What services should be provided?" calls for "systematic evaluations of services and
programs offered or sponsored by the department." To that end, the Year III (FY 1994-95) Work
Plan identified a tactic to "develop issue papers on the present inventory of athletic field lighting
systems and playground equipment for presentation to the Park Board, City Manager and City
Council by June 1, 1995."
The PACSD has noted the deteriorating conditions of playgrounds in the past two (2) proposed
budgets. Unfortunately due to limited available funding and other higher priority needs, funding
for replacement of these facilities has not been secured through either the general fund budget or
other alternative funding sources. The following is a comprehensive review and recommendation
dealing with the declining infrastructure of playgrounds.
EXISTING INVENTORY
The PACSD maintains an inventory of 128 playgrounds throughout the City. The age of most
of these facilities cannot be determined due to inadequate records and the nature of playground
development which usually occurs in phases. The two (2) major issues concerning playgrounds
today is the deterioration of wooden play structures and inadequate cushion surfaces under and
around equipment.
Typically each play area has one major multi-level play structure which provides areas of
enclosure, opportunities to climb and assorted attached apparatus e.g. bridges, slides, tire swings
and overhead ladders. This central piece provides a setting for both creative and structural play
which is both physically and mentally challenging. The main structure is usually surrounded by
an assortment of individual pieces which might include whirls, swings, balance beams, spring
animals and slides.
Play equipment has evolved over the years in construction materials and purpose. Original play
structures were constructed with metal piping. Examples of these types would be the old "monkey
bars" and "see-saws". Beginning in the 60's construction materials began to change to softer
materials such as wood for safety and aesthetic reasons. Wood construction of main play
structures heightened in the late 70's and early 80's throughout the country. The present trends,
while still including wood as a building component, has moved back to metals for structural and
maintenance reasons. Other materials such as recycled materials and plastic coated metals are
common building components in today's play equipment. Of the 128 playgrounds, the following
outlines the number and material type of main play structures throughout the City.
Number Material Type
72 - Wood
15 - Metal
35 - No main play structure present
6 - Main play structure has been removed
Play equipment is typically placed within a cushion material area (sand or pea gravel) to minimize
injury due to falls. This component of a playground has changed over the years as well. Earlier
pieces of play equipment were placed in grassy areas with no additional emphasis being placed
on the surfaces' ability to cushion a fall. In the late 60's, it had been documented that a high
percentage of injuries treated in hospital emergency rooms indicated that the majority resulted
from falls from equipment. This information was incorporated into play area design by placement
of sand under and around equipment. The standard of 12" of sand was followed by the
department until the early 80's when the material was changed to pea gravel. This material
change was made to minimize maintenance requirements in tilling and vegetation removal,
promote better drainage and to increase the fall absorption capacity. The trend for future
playground surfaces is a rubberized material which absorbs falls like pea gravel and provides a
higher level of accessibility to physically challenged individuals. The department's present
inventory of playgrounds has examples of all four (4) cushion systems throughout. Due to
resource limitations, many playgrounds are still located over harden earth or grassy/dirt areas.
Of the 128 playgrounds, the following outlines the number and types of surfaces.
Number Surface material
24 Harden earth/dirt
60 Sand
42 Gravel
2 Multiple type surface
which includes sand, gravel
and rubber matting
Attachment A provides a complete listing of each playground throughout the City, their surface
types, main play structure material and locations.
STANDARDS
DESIGN
The design of new developments and renovations is one of a partnership between the target user
and the PACSD. Typically programming meetings are held with neighborhood groups to identify
the target age group, desired equipment and arrangement of each item within the play area.
r r,
-2-
All designs incorporate the 1991 U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) Guidelines
which addresses access, type of equipment, surfacing and use zones for equipment.
For the most part, manufacturers of playground equipment conform to CPSC Guidelines and City
staff insures the surfacing and space requirements are incorporated into the design. Due to
changing CPSC Guidelines (originally issued in the 70's), additional standards being developed
by the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM) and the time of original installation, many
of the City's playgrounds do not conform to present day standards.
Materials and Construction
Since the mid-1980's, the PACSD has specified only equipment which has metal structural
elements i.e. no wood members in contact with the ground. Play structures may have wood
components such as decks and wall panels, but other materials e.g. coated expanded metals,
plastics, etc. are considered in the specification of equipment which are more durable and requires
less maintenance. All play equipment is installed in contained areas, usually within concrete
walks or mow strips over 12" of pea gravel. Subsurface drainage systems are installed to prevent
against standing water which restricts usage and accelerates decay of ground contact members.
INSTALLATION
PACSD personnel or construction contractors install all play equipment. There have been
requests to allow volunteers to construct play structures, but due to liability and management of
risk reasons, these offerings have been denied.
LEGISLATION
Within the 74th Session of the Texas Legislator there were bills (HB 2298 & SB 1352) introduced
which would have required all public playgrounds to be in full compliance with CPSC Guidelines
by September 30, 1996 or mandate on-site safety warning signs stating non-compliance. While
the passage of these bills was not secured, the heightened awareness of playground safety has
occured. There is a great likelihood that these issues will be reconsidered in future legislative
sessions. However, House Bill 632, Playground Safety, did pass. This bill is a more proactive
approach to playground safety by providing an affirmative defense to civil actions for damage for
personal injury, property damage, or death arising from the design, installation, provision or
operation of playground equipment if the improvements are designed, installed and operated in
compliance with CPSC Guidelines or ASTM standards. Signage of compliance with guidelines
would not be required as long as the site has an identifying sign of who the owner/operator of the
facility is i.e. general park sign. This bill also requires all new construction which has public
funding involved would be required to comply with either the CPSC Guidelines or ASTM
standards.
Irr , -3-
REMOVAL POLICY
The department uses the following criteria when determining or justifying the removal of
playground equipment:
* Hazardous condition for public use
* Cost of repairs exceed 75% of total
replacement cost
* Materials needed to make repairs unavailable
When a play structure is either reported by the public or found during the PACSD's monthly
inspection to have met the above criteria the following process is implemented:
* Photographs taken
* Notification of District Superintendent
* Notification of neighborhood association
* Play equipment removed
Should a play piece be determined to be an immediate safety hazard, removal may be conducted
prior to notification of the neighborhood association.
Through the review of removal request documents and input from Department personnel, play
equipment has been removed in the past due to deteriorated conditions or extensive vandalism at
the following locations:
Candleridge* Cobb
Delga* Englewood*
Far Northside Gid Hooper
Harvey Street* Highland Hills
Hillside Lake Como
Lincoln Normandy Place
Oakhurst Overton*
Paz Hernandez Prairie Dog
Ridglea Hills Rodeo
Rosedale Plaza* Springdale
Sylvania Terry
Trinity Westcreek
Wright Tarlton
Denotes removal of the main play structure
-4-
It is anticipated that the main play structure will require removal within the next 12 months at the
following sites.
Northside Forest (Tillery Playground)
Riverside Trinity
Little John Glenwood
PRIORITIZATION CRITERIA
In determining the most effective use of limited resources, the following criteria was developed
to establish a priority ranking to renovate both playground equipment and surfaces.
MAIN PLAY STRUCTURE REPLACEMENT
1. Restore service to areas where equipment has already been removed
2. Areas where equipment is forecasted to be removed
3. Replace equipment at high use areas i.e. next to community centers
4. Replace equipment where other playground opportunities are not in close
proximity
5. Community Parks
6. Neighborhood Parks
PLAY SURFACE ESTAB LIS H MENT/RENOVATION
1. Place pea gravel with mow strip under play equipment which is presently over
harden earth.
2. Replace sand with pea gravel at play areas of high use.
3. Replace sand with pea gravel at play areas near community center.
4. Replace sand with pea gravel in neighborhood parks.
Replacement or installation of play surfaces at any location must address the most current
guideline or regulation dealing with accessibility as outlined in the Americans with Disabilities
Act.
REPLACEMENT SCHEDULE
Using the beforementioned criteria for prioritizing replacements or renovations, staff recommends
the schedule suggested in Attachment B. Realizing that limited resources exist, this schedule
would become the Department's guide for future actions when funding is secured. Following this
comprehensive plan will enable the Department to strategically address these infrastructure needs
to insure equitable service delivery.
..........
Attachment C outlines the same replacement/renovation schedule as Attachment B while
identifying projects by Council districts.
BRIEFINGS & ENDORSEMENTS
