You Will recall discussions earlier this year concerning the
establishment of a beparttnent of Leisure Services, Part of the
rationale for forming this new department dealt with the CO -
locating of the "Children's Creative Hxperience Program,"
presently administered by the Department of Parks and Recrea-
tion, and the City's "Child bay Care PrOgram into the Depart-
ment of Leisure Services.<
The attached memorandum from Albert H. Howard and Robert W.
Parkins, dated December 6, 1977, provides a discussion of the
feasibility and suitability of combining both programs into
the hew department. While the cost data may have changed, the
discussion continues to be relevant.
Funding for the Department of Leisure Services was planned and
approved in this year's budget. This department can be opera-
tional by the end of June, when the establishing ordinance be-
comes effective. Parks maintenance, planning and design will
remain in the Department of Parks, to be so named at a later
date.

F.,
The creation of a Department of Leisure Services has been
repeatedly deferred by the City Commission pending a dis-
cussion of the location Of the City's Day Care Services
within the City's organizational structure. That question
was reviewed by the Commission on tiebruary 9, and the Com-
mission decided no change was needed. This decision, then,
creates no impact on the proposed Department of Leisure
Services.
Detailed appropriations for the Department of Leisure Ser-
vices were programmed into the 1977-78 Budget and were
approved by the Commission on December 16, 1977.
