OLD BUSINESS

Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes
Page 1 of3
A) Implementation of the Parks & Recreation section of the Borough Wide Comp Plan
During the discussion, COMMITTEE MEMBER FOREMAN instructed Dvorak to let the committee
know when the consultants make changes to the hard chapters so the members can look at it to see if
there are any changes to make.
B) Parks & Recreation Budget
Discussion regarding going to the Assembly to ask for more money for park maintenance.
Dvorak stated that first the Committee needs to look at the parks and conceptualize what they would
consider an adequate level of service. For example, maybe have someone go out once a week for 8 hours
to work in a park, if that's the level of service you want to shoot for then we can crunch numbers and
develop a budget that way. Build your argument based upon a vision of what you want as a product, and
then break it down into how much that would cost.
VICE CHAIR FOREMAN stated for the next meeting on February 27th let's find the park inventory that
tells what facilities are in each park, and then we will come up with some kind of formula to estimate and
take that to the Finance Dept. She asked Dvorak to let them know how many hours of labor this budget
(in the packet) represents.
NEW BUSINESS
A) Vision Statement
It was the consensus of the Committee that they want staff to change the year to 2030 and put a lower
case m on mecca, and then move it forward for addition to the consultants.
B) Chapter 7 - Transportation
It was the consensus that "the main pedestrian thoroughfare should be kept accessible year round" be
inserted, and for Dvorak to let the consultants know that somewhere in the Transportation section it
should talk about it may be time for the community to look at public transportation.
c) Quarterly Updates to the Assembly
The P&ZIP&R will meet with the Assembly on March 8th.
