Item 4 – Sportsman’s Park: The Department has recommended considering the park as surplus property and putting it on the market for sale. The property has been appraised and a title search has been completed. The City Attorney is working to clear the title so the property can be put forth for sale. Liz Torres put motion forth that the property (1) be declared as surplus; and, (2) that the property be declared for sale. Motion seconded by Phyllis Sheppard. Motion passed unanimously 3-0. Director’s Report: Staff changes ? – T.C. Donahue resigned; David Rachel resigned; Anne Archer resigned; Joe Conigliaro promoted to Building Maintenance Coordinator; Nancy Baillargeon – new P/T Office Assistant in Parks Admin. Office Parks Ordinance issue ? - The second reading was pulled from the 4/10 City Commission agenda. A rewrite of one section needs to be made with regard to political candidate sponsorship of City events. International Folk Festival issue ?– The Department and the City has a significant issue with some of the other sponsors. There was a misunderstanding of our role in this event; we were under the impression that we were a partner with the Rotary Club; when, in fact, we were informed that we are a “gold sponsor”. In the future, the Department and the City will need to be clearer regarding our role and have contracted language. Parks Department Vehicles ? – All vehicles are current in the process of being striped; this will differentiate them from Public Works vehicles, as well as improving their appearance. Adjournment: Motion made to adjourn meeting by Liz Torres; seconded by Phyllis Sheppard. Meeting adjourned at 8:18 pm. Minutes taken and submitted by Sharon Rogers, Staff Assistant. Next scheduled meeting to be held Tuesday, May 9, 2006 at 7:00 p.m.
