MEMO ND
TO: Tom Brymer, City Manager
FROM: Att eve Beachy, Director of Parks and Recreation
DATE: 1 October 10, 2000
SUBJECT: City Council FollowUp Information
Attached are reports that list the c ent fund balances for the P
DEDICATION 1 and for the RECREATION SPORTS FACILITY
REPLACE I NT F I. This information was requested during the workshop meeting
on September 28, 2000.
The P " , A I DEDICATION F I is established according to specific "park
zones" in accordance with ORDIN A CE K ER 2368. A park zone map is attached
that illustrates the bo daries of each zone, Any funds generated in aparticular zone
must remain in that same zone. Also, interest generated by these funds is allocated back
to the respective zone that generated the income.
The RECREATION SPORTS F I was established in 1999 to provide a means to
generate funds for facility replacement. Youth sports leagues are assessed a
$5/participant surcharge and adultsports are assessed a $75/te surcharge for any
league that uses city=o ed recreation facilities. The funds are tracked by usingproject
numbers for each activity. The intent of the fund is to develop a I.?ng- e method to
finance facility replacement andrenovation. It was not established for "routine"
maintenance operations. Thisfund was actually brought into effect in FY00 and,
therefore,the current balance is relatively modest.
Please contact me if additional infor tion is required.

Dear Ross:
Thanks for providing my Introduction to Forestry class with an urban forestry field trip
today. As usual, the day was excellent. Both the material and the level at which it was
presented were just right for the class. I really appreciate your willingness to give your
time and the time of your crew people. I know that you and they have much more to do
than give demonstrations.
The demonstrations were outstanding, and your crew was very helpful and
professional. Please pass along my thanks to them for their patience and willingness
to demonstrate their craft.
Thanks again and please call if I can somehow return the favor.
Sincerely,
