Mr. Kuhlke: Second. I Motion carries with Mr. Brigham not voting. Motion to discuss a proposal from 30901 Development Corporation for operation of the W.T. Johnson Community Center. Mr. Beck: Our department received a proposal about six or so weeks ago from the 30901 Development Corporation in relation to what is consistent with a direction that you as a Commission have asked us to proceed in partnerships that we might be able to enter into to further service the recreation in our city. The 30901 Development Corporation issued a proposal to our department for the operation of the W.T. Johnson Community Center and a co-managed partnership with our department. The proposal is in your agenda that outlines the issues and we did discuss other issues that we have entered into other agreements with the three other agreements within out department for operation of recreation centers within our city system. In a subsequent meeting with some members of the Commission and The 30901 Corporation, it was determined that we hold a public hearing which was held last Tuesday, May 2 at the W.T. Johnson Community Center on the issue. Mr. Oliver: I would note that this proposal provides for the two full time staff people at W. T. Johnson to be transferred to Garrett gymnasium and Dyess Park and the remaining part-time person would stay at Johnson center. If at any point this center came I back under our control, these people would have to come back because we would not I have the staff to operate them and to do other wise would place a burden on our properry tax base. Mr. Beck: Our department does try to utilize our staff where the needs are the greatest. Right now in the approved year 2000 budget we only had one full time staff person that was approved for Garrett gymnasium. With the size of that facility and with this proposal coming along the same time as that facility opening that is where we are recommending one of these positions go should you approve this agreement. And the other need would be at Dyess Park where we have a larger program offering at that facility and only have one fulltime staff person. Although this proposal would not save any actual personnel dollars in this budget it does eliminate the need to have to ask for additional personnel. Mr. Kublke: Tom what is your recommendation? Mr. Beck: My recommendation based on everything discussed with the 30901 Corporation to discuss, hearing the comments from the public hearing last Tuesday night, both pro and con, it is my recommendation that we give this 30901 Development Corporation an opportunity to service the community. Mr. Kuhlke: So move. I Mr. Mays: Second. After further discussion, Mr. Mays: In reference to the fact that we have a proposal here on our side and the 30901 side but it's not a contract and I'm wondering if we need to amend the motion a little to include where the Administrator and Attorney work out the contract. Because there will be certain things 30901 will have to sign offon and as well as us. I think we need to go ahead and approve this subject to the contract being signed and being passed on to the Commission. Mr. Kuhlke: I'll include that in my motion. Motion carries unanimously. With no further business to discuss, the meeting was adjourned. Lena J. Bonner Clerk of Commission I I PUBLIC SERVICES AGENDA COMMITTEE ROOM - May 8, 2000 4:00 P. M. I.
