From: "John Nichols" <jpn©agutamu.edu> To: <klehde@ci.college-station.bc us> Date: 8/8/2002 9:28 PM Subject: Thoughts for Board Goals CC: <Sbeachy.Parkrec.City of College Station@ci.college-station.bc us> Dear Kris: Please pass the folllowing along to the Board members at the meeting next Tuesday evening. Thanks, John Dear All, My apologies for not being with you tonight. I wanted to toss a few ideas into the pot for discussion of the Board goals for next year. What we have been working on this year is a pretty good list to start from. A few ideas follow. Use them(or not)as you wish. I am sure that what you come up with will be a solid and workable list. 1. Future CIP: The process of communicating and advocating the priorities we came up with last year will clearly be a key activity for the Board. Some minor"tweaking"may be necessary,but should not take a lot of our time. 2. Forestry Plan: We need to spend some time and effort in communicating with the Council and advocating that they accept the plan and at least address the first priorities identified. 3. Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update: Finish this FAII. 4. Woodway and Shenandoah Parks: This should be a fun activity for this year; community engagement,planning and design for these two parks. The Board can be useful in this process. (Can we find out if there is a neighborhood association in Shenandoah to involve?) 5. Standards and policies for appraisal of services: This should be continued. After a year,we can take another look at the usefulness of the quarterly maintenance reports and see how to use them for planning and management adjustments. 6. Veterans Park: Grand opening and getting phase one up and running. This dedication should be the CSPARD event of the year. Good outreach effort to the whole community... Planning and execution. Should come at a good time next Spring when the next CIP is being considered by committee and Council. What a great time for showcasing the impact of the last CIP investment in Parks and Rec. Of course, also continue advocating phase two. 7. Joint programming with other enties: Keep this item. Do we have specifics? Hensel park,joint use facilities; new elementary school playground„etc. 8. Should have a goal related to Seniors programming and intergenerational project. 9. Drop the skateboard park(Bryan has a grant request in on this for one of their parks). 10. Followup on the rubberized surface for track at South Knoll School. 11. Of course we must include the Bee Creek softballl backstops item. This seems to be on the agenda of the city now,so we need to keep the pressure on. 12. Routine upgrades and replacement program on playground equipment: this may be included somewhere else and seems to be on track. I guess this is enough from me. There is nothing really visionary here,except the plans in the CIP. Maybe we need to come up with some Blue sky ideas. Also,I wonder if we need to sit down with staff and see if recreational programming, independent of our usual preoccupation with the physical infrastructure,deserves some attention from us? What really new or different programming would citizens value that we are not now providing or even thinking of? Have fun! See you all in September. John N. John P.

Regarding the August meeting, my apologies, but I forgot that my family vacation trip starts August 10th,thus I cannot make the meeting on the 13th. Unfortuately I did not remember this last night when we could have discussed the options with everyone present. I would like to attend the meeting because of the discussion of the Board goals. However,I would understand if we cannot find another date. So this is one alternative that the rest of the Board go ahead with the meeting as scheduled. I am available every evening the preceding week from Monday, August 5th through Thursday August 8th. Also,the week after I get back from vacation,which starts on Monday,August 26th. If you can find dates that Steve is available(and hopefully Ric),then send out an e-mail to solict availability. Perhaps the obvious is the immediately preceeding Tuesday,August 6th. The other nights that week work for me,and I think this is the preferable week. Again,my apologies for not remembering when my own vacation was scheduled. Being an"old-timer"I have five weeks of"use or lose" vacation from now to the end of August. Since my wife is working in July,we need to do it in August. s'XI Call me with questions or options.

Thanks, John Dear All, My apologies for not being with you tonight. I wanted to toss a few ideas into the pot for discussion of the Board goals for next year_ What we have been working on this year is a pretty good list to start from. A few ideas follow. Use them(or not)as you wish. I am sure that what you come up with will be a solid and workable list. 1. Future CzP: The process of communicating and advocating the priorities we came up with last year will clearly be a key activity for the Board. Some minor"tweaking"may be necessary,but should not take a lot of our time. 2. Forestry Plan: We need to spend some time and effort in communicating with the Council and advocating that they accept the plan and at/eastedd,essU`efiostpwonues|denufied. 3. Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update: Finish this FAI|. 4. Woodway and Shenandoah Parks: This should be a fun activity for this year; community engagement,planning and design for these parks. The Board can be useful in this proces . (Can we find out if there is a neighborhood association in Shenandoah to involve?) of services: This should becontinued. After a year we can take another look at the usefulness of the -�]a�edvmaimenancensponsands�eho�tousethemforp|ann|ngandmanagementocUusm�en�. ( � 6. Veterans Park: Grand opening and getting phase one up and running. This dedication should be the CSPARD event of the year. Good outreach effort to the whole community... Planning and execution. Should come at a good time next Spring when the next CIP is being considered by committee and Council. What a great time for showcasing the impact of the last CIP investment in Parks and Rec., Of course also continue advocating phase two. 7. Joint programming with other enties: Keep this item. Do we have specifics? Hensel park,joint use facilities; new elementary school playground„etc. 8. Should have a goal related to Seniors programming and intergenerational projects. 9. Drop the skateboard park(Bryan has a grant request in on this for one of their parks). 10. Followup on the rubberized surface for track at South Knoll School. 11. Of course we must include the Bee Creek softballl backstops item. This seems to be on the agenda of the city now,so we need to keep the pressure on. 12.)Routine upgrades and replacement program on playground equipment: this may be included somewhere else and seems to be on track. I guess this is enough from me. There is nothing really visionary here,except the plans in the czP. Maybe we need to come up with some Blue sky ideas. Also,I wonder if we need to sit down with staff and see if recreational programming,independent of our usual preoccupation with the physical infrastructure,deserves some attention from us? What really new or different programming would citizens value that we are not now providing or even thinking of? Have fun! See you all in September. John N. John P.
