DISCUSSION AND REVIEW OF BOARD GOALS: The board received a copy of their goals for 1995. The goals list showed the current status of each goal. Steve informed the board that the Sandstone project contract had been signed recently and that work would begin soon. Greg asked about Woodway Park. Steve stated that Woodway Park consisted of 4.2 acres, with a portion of the acreage fronting on Holleman Street. The City was unsuccessful in acquiring the land adjacent to the park. He stated that the city is considering a joint park project with Texas A&M. That zone currently has approximately $300,000 available for use on a neighborhood park. Some discussion took place regarding the Parkland Dedication Ordinance. Steve stated that the board could take a look at the current ordinance and see if any changes needed to be made. If changes were approved by the board the recommendation would then go to council for approval. Ron asked about the park in the Spring Loop area. Steve stated that if the board wanted to follow through with the sale of that park, he would need to notify the city attorney so that she could prepare the information that would go on the next ballot for May. Ron asked Steve to move ahead with informing council about the board wanting to sell that land. Some discussion took place regarding the expansion of baseball leagues and their request for the use of baseball fields. The board decided to hold a public hearing to gather information from various organizations about their needs for athletic fields. The board decided that there needs to be more communication between those organizations and the Parks Board and Parks Department to help alleviate the problem of expanding programs with limited athletic fields. Parks & Recreation Board Regular Meeting August 15, 1995 Page (2) V. DISCUSSION OF BIKE TRAILS AT LICK CREEK PARK: The board received in their packets a copy of a letter that Curtis Bingham, Parks Operations Superintendent, sent out to visitors of the last meeting regarding Lick Creek Park trails, Steve mentioned that the letter was also sent to local bike shops, along with the updated map. Along with the letter was a map of Lick Creek Park depicting trails that were open, some that had been temporarily closed, and some that had been permanently closed. Maps that will be made available to citizens will not depict trails that have been closed. Hopefully this will prevent the use of those trails and allow them to return to their natural state. The letter stated that several trails were mowed and limbs cut back along all but one of the original trails. Five "Trail Closed" signs were installed at entrances to unauthorized trails. Some of the cut vegetation was used to block off the entrances to those trails. Work was done on the parking lot and along the main trail/roadway to help prevent further erosion. Future trail clearing will be performed twice a year, in early fall and early spring. The Iron Bridge trail has been temporarily closed due to the poor condition of the bridge. Renovations to the bridge are being planned for this winter, but are dependent upon available funds. Greg asked if the 420th Engineer Brigade had been contacted about taking this project on and rebuilding the bridge. Steve stated that he did not who to contact, but would check into it. He mentioned that he wrote them several years ago, but they were unable to take on any projects at that time. The board commended the work that had been done at Lick Creek Park. Ron stated that this was more than he felt was asked for by the visitors at the last meeting. V1. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM REPORT: Ric mentioned that the Wolf Pen Creek rest room building had been completed The Southwood Pool renovation is continuing. The pool was drained recently and tested by the consulting architect and engineer. A preliminary report was presented to the city including all of their suggestions for repair work. Ric stated that a contract had been signed for Sandstone Park development, and as soon as the insurance and bond is received, work will begin. Ric mentioned that the Windwood area lights project is almost complete. Electricity has already been connected to one of the lights, and the second should be connected within the next day. The Brothers Pond area light will be installed by the contractor as soon as all of the parts are available. Ric stated that the Wolf Pen Creek dredging project is being operated by the Engineering Department. He mentioned that a new dredge and a new operator arrived last week. The dredge is a little larger and will hopefully work better. Ric informed the board that savings from the WPC rest room project will be used for a marquee sign. The lighted sign will be placed on Holleman Street by the crosswalk. It will be color coordinated with the amphitheater. The city is currently taking bids on the sign. Ric mentioned that the Planning and Zoning Committee is reviewing the sign designs. He stated that the WPC zone has its own design review board and must approve any construction in the zone. VII.

Samples of infected mosquito have been found in the College Hills area of College Station. Today city officials met with the Brazos County Health Department, Texas A&M entomologist, Dr. Jim Olsen , City of Bryan, Texas A&M and county emergency management officials to determine the best method of dealing with mosquito concerns. 1. Residents should not panic but take specific measures to protect themselves and their families. 2. The City of College Station will immediately begin treating areas of greatest concern with the use of a larvicide for breeding sites on public property. 3. Residents of the cities and county are being requested to help to prevent further problems by implementing the following measures. Eliminate breeding sites of standing water around the house in pots, bowls, tubs, birdbaths, old tires, etc. or any other containers. Where this is not possible, water should be changed daily. Anything that might collect water should be eliminated when possible. Ponds or tanks that contain fish are generally not a concern. Alter the amount of irrigation water applied to your lawns to reduce water run off. Eliminate early morning and later evenine outdoor activities during times of heavy mosquito activity. Avoid eoine into heavily wooded areas particularly with creek beds close by. Problems are worst after the sun goes down and before the sun comes up in the morning. Use of mosquito reaellents. citronella candles. mosauito beater and mosquito dunks or toss -its in drainage ways and standing water are encouraged until about mid October when the danger season is generally over. Bue zanners are not considered effective in eliminating mosquitoes but have been known to attract them. Birds are known to harbor the encephalitis virus, therefore residents are discouraLyed from nlacine bird feeders and baths on their nronerty. For additional information or questions, citizens are encouraged to contact the Brazos County Health Department at 361-4440. August 28, 199S MEMORANDUM TO: Steve Beachy, Director of Parks & Recreation FROM: Eric Ploeger, Assistant Director of Parks and Recreation 4�0� SUBJECT: PEBBLE CREEK PARK DEVELOPMENT Three representatives of CSISD attended a meeting to discuss the development of Pebble Creek Park. They were Dexter Inorejas, Debbie Leland, and Kathy Hughes. The meeting was successful and productive. This group prioritized equipment that they felt would be needed in the park. After review of the site, it appears that discussions need to take place with CSISD to determine if the park amenities can be located on school property. This is needed to cut the walking distance for students and staff. Future expansion of the school and maintenance are other items that need discussion. Items are listed in order of priority. 1. Play equipment 2. Jogging track 3. Drinking fountains 4. Basketball court with four square pad S. Athletic fields (2 backstops) 6. Benches 7. Fitness equipment 8. (Pavilion) - Outdoor classroom 9. Trees - landscaping 10. Garden Area Other items for thought: 1. Shade at play areas for teachers 2. Pre-K playground funding may be available through federal funds.

I realize that a thank you is a small reward for your diligent work, but without your assistance and hard work during the past year, we would not have been able to move forward with the strengthening of the College Station Little League program. It's great -having you and your staff on our team and we are running strong and in the right direction. Your contributions have been great and the courtesy and cooperation you have extended is sincerely appreciated. As we have stated on numerous occasions, we play on the finest Little League fields in the State of Texas and we are veryproud of them. Best regards, 6�Z�, (;� Ronald G.

Cooper Bryan Police Department 301 S. Texas Avenue P.O. Box 1000 Bryan, Texas 77805 Dear Mr. Cooper: On behalf of the City of college Station and the Bluebonnet Street Rod Club, I would like to thank you for your participation in the 4th Annual Rod Run in Central Park on August 19th and 20th. The D.A.R.E. Jaguar was an obvious hit because of its attention to detail and the professional image it presents. The interest generated by those who attended proved the value the project has to the community. Sincerely, Eric Ploeger Assistant Director Parks & Recreation Department City of College Station M Home of Texas A&M university September 11, 1995 1702 Emerald Parkway College Station, TX 77845 Dear Steve, Exactly one month ago, College Station Little League concluded the Summer Season of Training and Development. Over 300 players from College Station and Bryan utilized the Southwood Athletic Park four -field complex. As a first in our records of CSLL, a summer league was also formed at the Senior fields. This division of the summer league had nearly forty participants, 12-15 years of age. This truly was a relaxed atmosphere at both parks with teams often sharing players if one was short-handed due to vacations, camps, etc. There were no standings kept and no tournaments held; however, the games were often close and exciting to watch. None of this could have taken place without the support of the City of College Station Parks and Recreation Department. Often we citizens take for granted the beautiful upkeep of the turf, the bleachers and the concession area at Southwood. Gary Marske, along with his crew, Pete Fitzgerald, Bruce Brannan and Corey Schwartz, provided well manicured fields that provided a safe place for the kids to play ball. Bob French, meteorologist at KBTX-TV reported that this July was 5-7 degrees hotter than normal, yet Gary and his crew did not complain to me about the heat or the additional workload. I really appreciate the service they provided to the players. Since it was hotter than usual, all of the fans and participants also appreciated the fine work of the concessions crew. Shannon Waddell, along with Jimmy Gonzales, Matt Scoggins and Laurie Helm provided relief --especially for those early games. By the way, the only complaints about the heat came from us adult/parent types sitting in the stands. It didn't seem to faze the players at all! As per our earlier conversation, I do hope a summer baseball season will be offered in the future. My husband, a College Station Little League Board member, is interested in chairing that committee and coordinating the season with me next year. There are concerns about competing field usage with All -Star tournament games and practices, and CSLL Summer Season, all requesting the same resources. I feel that sensitive management of scarce resources can be accomplished when all parties are working in support of one another. It is a reality however, that the Southwood Complex is a finite resource and that must be taken into account when decisions are made concerning its use agreements. I look forward to receiving information concerning upcoming Parks and Recreation board meetings as we discussed. Again, I highlight the fine work done this summer by Gary and Shannon. Please convey my appreciation to them and their crews. Sincerely, % Debbie Capps Coordinator, College Station Little League Summer Season Training & Devel.

If you happen to be passing out maps of Lick Creek Park, please discard the map you are presently using. There has been some changes made to the trail system. Some changes are permanent and some are temporary. These changes have been made to better benefit the park users and the park itself.. I have enclosed an updated map of the Lick Creek Park trail system. The College Station Parks and Recreation Department wishes to stress that only the noted trails be used and that these trails will be used by both bike riders and hikers. Presently there are no trails specifically for bikers nor hikers and no trail designations of this type will be made in the near future. Please feel free to make copies of this map and pass them out to your customers. I may be contacted at 764-3411, if you or your customers have any questions or concerns about Lick Creek Park.

Board BBQ - As noted on the agenda, we will have an informal dinner prior to next Tuesday's meeting. The meal will be catered by Tom's BBQ and will take place at the Central Park Pavilion. We are planning to present George Dresser with a plaque at this time in appreciation for his past service. The meal will be served at 5:30pm. 2. Personnel Change - Sheila Walker, our former Program Supervisor, has accepted the position of Executive Director for the Marble Falls/Lake LBJ Chamber of Commerce. Sheila had been with our Department for 10 years and was instrumental in the successful operation of the Kids Klub program, Christmas in the Park and the concerts at Wolf Pen Creek amphitheater. She assumed her new duties in Marble Falls on August 3rd. We have received approximately 60 applications for this position and will begin the selection process next week. Hopefully, we will have the new person on duty by October 1 st. 3. Final Summer Concert - The grand finale concert of the summer series will be held on Saturday, August 19th at 7:30pm. This event will feature the ever popular Johnny Dee & the Rocket 88's. Drawings will be held for prizes for those individuals who attended at least six of the twelve events this summer and the Bluebonnet Street Rod club will have their cars at the amphitheater for the third consecutive year. Also, concert flyers are being distributed to participants attending a special workshop related to the Oklahoma bomb disaster that is being conducted by the Fire Prevention Training Division that weekend. This is part of our on -going efforts to market the amphitheater to out of town visitors in the community. Home of Texas A&M University 4. Car Show - The 4th Annual Bluebonnet Street Rod car show will be held at Central Park on August 19th & 20th. This event is sponsored by a local car club with support from the Parks & Recreation Department. Approximately 130 cars from throughout Texas will participate in this event which is free to the public. The cars are pre-65 any many are extensively modified. The quality of workmanship on some is extremely good and the variety of makes and models provides a real treat for car enthusiasts. This show has become an annual event that fills many hotel rooms in our community and provides us an excellent opportunity to showcase College Station to many visitors. 5. Pebble Creek Park Committee - We have asked the College Station Independent School District for input in the design process for the new Pebble Creek Park which will be located next to the new elementary school. This is the same process that was utilized in the design of Jack & Dorthy Miller Park which is co -located with Rock Prairie Elementary School. Four representatives from the existing elementary schools will serve on an ad hoc committee to work with our planning staff during the design phase. We will also conduct several public hearings this fall concerning the new park prior to submission of the site plan to the City Council for their consideration. The goal is to have the park complete prior to the start of school next August. 6. Perfect Score - The Adamson Lagoon concession stand received a score of 100 on the inspection conducted on July 20th. This represents the fourth time that one of our facilities have received a perfect score this year! The only other score was a 96 which compares very favorably with those scores given to most private sector establishments. These inspections are conducted by the County Health Department in accordance with Texas Department of Health guidelines and high scores do not come easily. Congratulations to Shannon Waddell and his staff for their dedication and hard work. 7. Dredge Operations - Dredging operations are continuing at Wolf Pen Creek lake. The contractor has experienced several problems including partial sinking of the dredge. Also, a larger machine was delivered to the site today which should speed up the work. We do not have an estimated time for completion of the project. however, progress is being made. Copies: Skip Noe, City Manager John Woody, Asst. City Manager/Operations Tom Brymer, Asst.
