Park Board Meeting — April 5, 2010 <br />Minutes <br />discontinued. The Circle -Lex Lions Club plans on retaining ownership of the trailer to <br />• use for some other purpose, or possibly sell it. <br />9c. Centennial School District Field Rental Update <br />Rick said due to budget considerations for 2010, there were several personnel <br />reductions throughout various City departments. In addition to the elimination of five <br />FTE staff, funding for all parks temporary staff was eliminated. In September, 2009 <br />when staff was fairly certain that these staff reductions were becoming a reality, the <br />Centennial School District (CSD) was notified of the City's intent to no longer maintain <br />the outdoor fields at Rice Lake Elementary, Centennial Middle School, and Blue Heron <br />Elementary. <br />The (CSD) has since changed our priority listing classification related to the District's <br />Facility Use Policy number 2060. In addition, the CSD is in the process of creating a <br />Field Rental Policy for all user groups including the City and youth sports associations. <br />Staff will provide the Park Board with this Field Rental Policy as soon as the CSD <br />finalizes this policy. <br />Rick explained that since the Park Board Packets were delivered to the members he <br />has heard that the CSD will not be charging fees to associations but will only mow fields <br />on a weekly basis. He will be trying to find out about softball field dragging and daily <br />maintenance. He will also find out about soccer net placement, staking etc. because of <br />safety issues. <br />Members asked what the 2060 Policy was and how often the city had been mowing the <br />ball fields. Rick responded that the 2060 Policy refers to the policies and fees related <br />to the rental and use of school district facilities. He added that the city had been <br />mowing on an average of 2 -3 times every 2 weeks. <br />Members also wanted to know what we would be charged now to use the facilities. <br />Rick said that the city has not been notified of any fees for using the CSD indoor <br />facilities. He will keep the Park Board informed on this issue. <br />NEXT PARK BOARD MEETING: <br />The next Park Board Meeting will be May 3, 2010 at 6:30p.m. <br />ADJOURN: <br />Bill Kusterman made a motion to adjourn, seconded by Pat Huelman.
