DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY SERVICES

Moving Forward Together

As we head into another exciting season of recreation, I wanted to take a moment to share a little behind-thescenes look at what our department, and our City, is navigating.

Like many cities throughout California, Rohnert Park entered this fiscal year facing significant financial challenges as revenues have not kept pace with rising operating costs. These realities affect every department, and Community Services is no exception.

Today, our Recreation Division is operating with two fewer full-time team members than it had just a year ago.

Even with a smaller team, our staff remains committed to delivering the high-quality programs, events, parks, and facilities our community values. At the same time, we must make thoughtful decisions to ensure we are living within our means.

One of those decisions is the seasonal closure of all three community pools during November, December, and January. While we recognize this change will impact many residents, these are historically our lowest-use months. Temporarily closing the pools during this period reduces operating costs while allowing us to preserve the programs and services that benefit the greatest number of community members throughout the year.

Even in the face of these challenges, I continue to be inspired by the generosity and commitment of our community. This year, the Rohnert Park Foundation donated more than $100,000 to support Recreation Division operations, helping offset General Fund costs so we can continue providing quality recreation programs, events, and services to our residents and families. In

addition, the Foundation contributed $10,000 to our Equity Access Program, allowing 54 local children to attend summer camps and swim lessons who otherwise may not have had the opportunity. Their generosity is a wonderful reminder of what makes Rohnert Park so special: a community that believes every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and belong.

There is also much to look forward to. Thanks to Measure M – Parks for All, the Sonoma County sales tax approved by voters in 2018, we can continue investing in the places and experiences that bring our community together. Measure M funding supports many of the community events residents enjoy throughout the year and is making possible the exciting renovation of Alicia Park beginning this fall. The new inclusive playground and park improvements will create a welcoming space where children of all abilities can play together and families can gather for generations.

While this year’s budget requires us to make difficult choices, our commitment to serving the community remains unchanged. I am incredibly grateful for our dedicated staff, volunteers, instructors, community partners, and residents who continue to support our mission and help us make the most of every dollar.

Thank you for your continued support, your understanding, and your participation in everything we do. I hope you enjoy this Fall Recreation Guide, and I look forward to seeing you at one of our classes, events, parks, or facilities this season.
