<br />Chairperson Johns felt that the Commission was in agreement that this is something that they <br />would like to do and would be beneficial to the community. <br /> <br />Commissioner Backous {eIt that youth organizations may be willing to contribute to the policing <br />of the facility if this were made an option. <br /> <br />Consensus of the Commission was to possibly install the locks on the concession building. It <br />was determined that the funding and maintenance issues would need to be worked out prior to <br />installation. <br /> <br />Commissioner Barr left the meeting at 8: 1 0 p.m. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hansen thought that the youth associations could review the bathrooms at the end <br />of the night to ensure that the bathroom is presentable to the public during the day and cleaning <br />by park staff occurring in the afternoon. He thought that the general cleaning of the bathroom <br />could be done by the concession workers at the end of the night. He suggested holding a trial <br />period and if the bathrooms are not being maintained they would not be open during the day. <br /> <br />Parks Supervisor Riverblood questioned funding opportunities. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hansen questioned if the funding could come from the Park fund. <br /> <br />Parks Supervisor Riverblood confirmed that the funds could come from that Park fund. He <br />questioned if matching moneys would be available from the youth associations, along with <br />commitments to help clean-up the bathrooms. <br /> <br />Chairperson Johns confirmed that a lot of the use was coming from the youth associations. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hansen advised that he would look into that option. <br /> <br />Chairperson Johns suggested doing a matching funds project through the lawful gambling fund <br />with the youth association. She realized that it was a hard time to ask the City to spend money, <br />along with staffing issues. She thought it would be a nice gesture on the part of the youth <br />association if possible. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hansen questioned if funds were matched by the youth association, could the <br />project then be completed by the end of April. <br /> <br />Commissioner Backous felt that this amount of funding would be available should the youth <br />association not be able to contribute. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Hansen, seconded by Commissioner Backous, to install the locks on <br />the concession building, with the possibility of matching funds and volunteer efforts from the <br />youth associations, and remaining funds coming from the lawful gambling fund. <br /> <br />Park and Recreation CommissionlMarch 12, 2009 <br />Page 11 of 15 <br />
