• TO: Honorable Mayor & City Council Members FROM: Kim Stephan DATE: September 8, 2011 SUBJECT: Recommendation to City Council Regarding Revenue of $3,666 from the 2011 Festival of the Lakes 8K Events The committee had a lengthy discussion at the September 7, 2011 Parks & Recreation Committee meeting regarding what project(s) the committee would like to fund with the revenue from the 2011 Festival of the Lakes 8K Events. The committee has a Park Reserve Fund with a $2,500 donation from Dead Broke Saddle Club for a sand volleyball court. This project is estimated to cost approximately $10,000. Committee Member Seeley made a motion to request City Council allocate $2,500 of the revenue for the sand volley ball court and request the remaining balance of $1,166 be put into a new line item called Park Project Fund to potentially be used for items such as trail signage and lighting for the flag pole at Cornerstone Park. This motion failed for a lack of a second. The committee felt the revenue needed to be specifically earmarked for a project and requested City Council allocate the entire amount to the sand volleyball court. This will bring the balance in the account to $6166. The committee will then request additional funding from Dead Broke Saddle Club. • Motion was made by Committee Member Peterson, seconded by Committee Member Haiden to recommend City Council allocate the $3,666 Revenue from the 2011 Festival of the Lakes 8K Events to the Park Reserve Fund for the Sand Volley Ball Court. Ayes — 5, Nays — 1 (Seeley). Motion Carried. • 12
