SUBJECT

and City Wide Park Program
Event Fees

ENCLOSURES
Recommendation:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission consider
the following issues concerning City parks: costs -for City
services for special events and programs held in parks; and the
establishment of a "Park Advisory Board" to obtain community
input for the "City -Wide Neighborhood Park Renovations Project"
o,: the Capital Improvement Program.
Background:
The Department of Parks, Recreation and Public Facilities has
prepared the background information concerning these issues.
It has come to the Administration's attention that there is some
concern in the community over supposed "increases" in park fees
for special events. A presentation will be made to the City
Commission outlining the current costs for these activities and
their justification. As will be shown, there has been no
in in park use fees since 1967, however, personnel costs
for labor forces assigned to work these events has increased over
the years, and organizers are now being expected to pay for some
services that were previously, and erroneously, provided at no
charge.
As a second issue, the administration recommends that a "Park
Advisiory Board" be created, with the Mayor and each Commissioner
nominating an individual to serve on said board. The board will
serve at the will of the Commission for the expressed purpose of
canvassing neighborhood residents and park users to obtain their
input on the particular needs for renovations to ten (10)
individual park properties included in the "City Wide
Neighborhood Park Renovation Project" (Capital Improvement
Project No. 331303). It is suggested that Walter Golby be
appointed as City liaison to the Board and that their
recommendations be presented to the Commission no later than the
first meeting in October.
