The Chair recognized dick Aiken and Ed Havran in the audience. They declined speaking time. Absent: Nick Martine and Cheryl Livingston BUSINESS 1. Motion to approve the minutes as submitted was made by Alan Linford and seconded by Don Wood. Passed unanimously. 2. Discussion and action taken on draft budget proposal. David Fain requested that item #4 be moved forward because of our interested listeners. He summerized the budget proposal for capital expenditures. Lengthy discussion followed on each of six areas: personnel, equipment, master plan, beautification, upgrading park grounds and facilities, and implementation of master plan. It was decided that David Fain would firm the estimated costs prior to submittal to the City Council, but a consensus was reached concerning general needs. The conclusions and reasons follow: a) Personnel - Increase current park employees by one full time and one part time person to deal with park maintenance. Currently the staff is unable to meet the requirements of mowing tim~l, p~~yfield prepar~~i.ana.:. playground equipment upkeep, etc. needed to meet citizen expectations, health and safety needs. As The Parks and Recreation Coordinator expands his duties to include recreation services, his availability to contribute to maintenance activities will decrease, thus the need for the additional employees. b) Hire one part time recreation employee to implement a recreation program proposed for the summer of 1990. Mr. Fain has committed to establishing and organizing Colleyville's first recreation program, but will need and assistant to deal with the day to day workings of such a program, This position will run April 1990 Through August of 1990. User fees will help in defraying some of the cost of the operation of the program. c) Equipment - A new riding mower and push mower would allow occasional down time for maintenance and repairs, so that mowing requirements can be met. Current mowing equipment outside of the mower bought in summer of 1988 is antiquated. p.2 An additional truck would be necessary to transport the new employees to job sites around Colleyville. d) Master Plan 1} This study would justify and confirm the need for several major capital expenditures not listed in this budget that have come before the Advisory Board to date. It is the opinion of the Board that we do not want to recommend spending the City's money on piecemeal action but only after development of a comprehensive plan that truely meets the needs of all its citizens. 2) The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board is committed to work alongside a consulting firm to develop a plan that meets our needs for the least cost. e) Beautification 1) Motion made by Mary Lou Brieger and seconded by Alan Linford to have City Council designate tiVebb House property as park land. Motion passed unanimously. After this action, plans would proceed to upgrade its use as a park. Mary Lou Brieger will hold a meeting June 9th as a Webb House briefing. 2) Motion made by Mary Lou Brieger and seconded by Alan Linford to recommend to City Council: "Take L.D. Lockett property off market until Parks and Recreation Advisory Board determines if it is suitable for park use. Motion passed unanimous ly . f) Upgrading park grounds and facilities 1) playground equipment - to improve safety and fun time for childern 2) concession stand remodeling - to meet health codes 3) bathroom facility at City Park - to meet health and safety needs 4) portable building at soccer facility - to meet on-site storage needs 3. Disscussion and action on park master plan. Previously discussed in budget. Mr. Vigilletti will contact the City Secretary and request these action items placed on the City Council agenda. These action items are:. a) motion concerning the Webb House property b) motion concerning L.D. Lockett property c) consensus that the City should now seek bids for park master plan. David Fain has already written a preliminary park master plan study, request for proposal which the Board will review. 4. Discussion of summer recreation program. Previously discussed in budget. Mr. Fain directed the Board to review samples of adjacent cities summer recreation programs included in our agenda packet .. p.3 5. Discussion and action on fund raising projects. Don Wood moved and Dawn Quinby seconded the motion: That the Parks Department sponsor a fun run at the 2nd annual Bar- b-que cook-off on October 7, 1989. Any surplus monies earned beyond operation costs be given to the Community Center fund. Motion passed unanimously. Mary Lou Brieger suggested future fundraising could be obtained from sale of notecards and wildflower seeds to the public during a proposed wildflower festival. 6. Other concerns: Take tour of park properties beginning of next meeting. Need future workshop on funding, matching grants, etc. 7. Dawn Quinby moved that we adjourn and Don Wood seconded.
