II. CONTEXT FOR PROPOSED WORK With the development of the ECCL, there is an opportunity to look with fresh eyes at how the Anna Yates and Recreation sites can best be deployed to benefit Emeryvilles citizens. While preliminary future scenarios were developed in 2011, the time has come to develop detailed programming, physical planning, and economic planning models for the Anna Yates and Recreation Center sites, and to demonstrate how those plans work in concert with the purposes served by the other four sites. To that end, a task force, led by consultant John Flores and including key city personnel and representative community members, is being formed this fall. The Task Force, working in conjunction with MKThink and MIG over six months (January 2013 June 2013), will produce a comprehensive SixSite Master Plan report, to be submitted to the school board for approval in June 2013.
