<br />~. <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />Parks &; Recreation Committee <br />Meeting MimItes 08-07-42 <br /> <br />Committee Member Peil suggested the committee make some kind of recommendation <br />to council based on the fact that they will get a written proposal from the Lions. Perhaps <br />this would ensure the money is not spent else where. Discussion tabled for present time. <br /> <br />~ CONSIDERATION OF MEETING MINUTES <br /> <br />Motion was m.ade by Chairperson DeVme, seconded by Committee Member <br />Seeley, to approve the July 8, 2002 Parks and Recreatio. Committee Meeting <br />Minutes. Ayes - 4, Nays - 0, Abstain - 2 (peil, Walter) Absent - 1 (peterson) <br /> <br />Motion carried. <br /> <br />VI. OLD BUSINESS <br /> <br />RelocationlEnclosure for Satellite at Tracv McBride Park (UDda~ <br />Committee Member Peterson informed the committee that relocating the satellite to the <br />north side of the basketball court would cause safety issue problems. The satellite is <br />considered a permanent structure and it would be too close to the basketball court. <br />Chairperson De Vme said there was really no good place to move the satellite to. <br />Committee Member Peil suggested doing nothing at this time as there have been no <br />complaints about the satellite situated where it is. The committee agreed to leave the <br />satellite in its current location without enclosing it. Chairperson De Vine reported that <br />many of the trees planted around the Acorn Creek Park satellite are dying. These were <br />transplanted from the tennis courts at Eagle Pass by Public Works. The soil type and the <br />amount of water these trees received after being transplanted are a factor. Public Works <br />may have to remove these. <br /> <br />Ware:o Summer Park Prof!nlm (Review} <br />Ms. Stephan reported that the Wargo Summer Program has not been well attended at <br />this point and very few are signed up for the upcoming events. On Tuesday, July 16, <br />2002 a staffperson from Wargo did not show up for the biking/swimming session. In <br />checking with Wargo, the staff person responsible for that session did not come to work <br />that day and in oversight the session was forgotten. A refund will be issued to the <br />children who attended. The following Tuesday there were no children registered and the <br />program was cancelled. Tuesday; July 30 there were 6 children present for the activity. <br />The committee discussed the possible reason for the poor turnout. Advertising was not <br />different from the previous year, except the city did not have a newsletter in 2002. The <br />committee is hopeful that hiring a park program person for 2003 will help. <br /> <br />3of3 <br />
