DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
Pursuant to Board Policy J6, the El Dorado Hills Community Services District (EDH CSD) is requesting a voluntary conceptual review of a proposed 211-acre regional park to expand the recreational opportunities offered in El Dorado Hills. The purpose of Board Policy J6, Section 1.E., is to provide a framework for applicants to follow when voluntarily requesting a conceptual review before the Board of Supervisors for any development project as part of a pre-application process.
The proposed park would provide active recreational opportunities (e.g., lighted ball fields, dog park, volleyball courts, tot lot, bocce courts) and ancillary facilities (e.g., restrooms, shade and barbeque area, a maintenance yard, and parking) on the west side of the project site. The area surrounding Bass Lake (more centrally located within the site) would provide more passive uses, such as multi-use trails and a fishing dock and boat ramp, while the east side of the project area would house a 2,500 square foot museum and educational facility and outdoor amphitheater with access road and parking.
A more detailed project description can be found in the project application materials in Attachment A.
