Suran a i rector Department of Man \ nt and Budget ; The reorganization of the Recreation Department is being conducted in two phases. As we are nearing the completion of phase one which addresses issues pertinent to the reorganization of the Recreation Department, it is now necessary to address phase two which addresses the deployment of the additional funding appropriated by the City Commission. One of the major requirements of phase two is comprehensive system wide activity planning which will include a detailed community needs assessment. As a result of a comprehensive recreation needs assessment, recreation activities will be planned and scheduled on an annual basis with an emphasis on direct input from the City's residents. Research into the field of needs assessment has indicated that the most objective and efficient means of conducting a needs assessment of this size is to engage an outside consultant. Essentially, the consultant will perform the following: (1) Develop a survey questionnaire, (2) Determine an appropriate survey sample size, (3) Collect the -questionnaire data through telephone and face-to-face interviews, (4) Analyze the data, and (5) Generate a final report. A cost estimate for a full scale survey is approximately $25,000. available in the budget of the Recreation Department. Funds are 1* 83-535
