1. The YMCA is interested in the C'rty of Centerville participating in the capitol fund raising efforts to build a new YMCA facility serving this region. With the City investing $250,000, the YMCA would provide residents of Centerville for 15 years, a 25% discount on joining fees, a 10% discount on monthly membership dues and provide four (4) Centerville community nights each year. The number of years an agreement is made aze negotiable. 2. The YMCA would like to offer a summer Day Camp program e�ended hours site and bus pick-up location using LaMotte Park in Centerville. We would like to have access to all park facilities including the warming house from 6:30 — 9:00 a.m. and 3:30 — 6:00 p.m., Monday — Friday from June 12 — August 18. 3. The YMCA would like to offer programs at LaMotte Park during the summer. We see the potential to run morning and afternoon sessions, each day for approximately eight (8) weeks during this summer. Again we ' would need to have access to all park facilities including the warming house from 9:30 —11:30 a.m. and 1:00 — 3:00 p.m., Monday — Friday. We would like to discuss with you the different pxogram offerings that could be offered. Council Member Sweeney felt there should be some fle�bility with the hours, adding we I need to consider the commitment the City already has with the Centennial Little League's use of the ball fields. Mr. Navin commented that this is a great opportunity to partner with the YMCA, noting the residents of Centerville want more local activities. Mr. Navin felt it would be fine to grant permission to the YMCA, with the exception that they must be out by 5:00 p.m. so the Little League can get onto the ball fields. Trail Map�date The Park and Recreation Committee didn't quite understand or agree with the rough draft trail map submitted by Paul Palzer. Ms. Lien was requested to create three (3) separate , maps indicating the following: e�cisting trails, possible future trails and easements. Ms. Lien will work on the three (3) maps and re-submit at the April meeting. ' NEW BUSINESS Lightin� from Rich DeFoe (Waterworks Beach Club) Mr. Navin explained that he has been in contact with Rich DeFoe of Waterworks Beach Club. Mr. DeFoe is donating the lights from the ball fields to the City with one stipulation. Mr. DeFoe requests the lights be used for youth ball fields. The question of the Park and Recreation Committee is where to place the lights. Do the lights get installed at the ball fields or the soccer fields at LaMotte Park. There isn't enough lights for both. Mr. Navin would like to find out the expense of installation of the lights, then contact Pat Mahr of the Centennial Little League and Dave Knol of the soccer club to see if either would be willing to pay for the installation. 6
