Pardon — Consider requests for absences of members from meeting: Glenn Schroeder made a motion to accept the absence of George Dresser as excused. Glen Davis seconded the motion. All were in favor, and the motion passed unanimously. 4. Approval of minutes from Regular Meeting of May 8, 2001: John Crompton made a motion to approve the minutes from the regular meeting of May 8, 2001. Glenn S. seconded the motion. All were in favor, and the motion passed unanimously. 5. Presentation of service awards to out -going Parks and Recreation Board members: Steve Beachy presented Chris Barzilla with a recognition plaque for his four years of service with the Parks and Recreation Board. John Crompton was also presented with a recognition plaque for his past five years of service with the Board. Steve added that George Dresser would also be receiving a recognition plaque for his past three years of service at a later date. 6. Presentation, discussion, and possible action concerning appointments of members to the Senior Advisory Committee: Steve stated that the Senior Advisory Committee was established by the direction of the City Council and has been an official Committee under the Parks and Recreation Board for one year. Bill Lay, Chairman of Committee, presented the nominations for new members to replace the five members whose terms had expired. Glen D. made a motion to appoint Suzanne Reynolds, Gerald Jordan, Neal Nutall Jr., Haskell Monroe, Jr., and Laura Holmes to the Senior Advisory Committee. Glenn S. seconded the motion. All were in favor, and the motion passed unanimously. Mr. Lay stated that the applicants had been contacted and all had agreed to serve on the Committee. John C. suggested that Steve give the Committee some guidance pertaining to a Senior Facility during the next bond issue. 7. Presentation, discussion, and possible action concerning petitions for: Naming of the College Station Bike Loop: Steve stated that this petition came from a group who would like to name the College Station Bike Loop in memory of cyclist Wayne Bryan. Mr. Bryan was killed while cycling on August 10, 1997, when the driver of a car fell asleep at the wheel and struck him from behind. Steve stated that the petition had been verified through the Council office. He went on to say that Park staff is in favor of the petition and recommends approval by the Board. John C. stated that he is also in favor of the petition. He said that Mr. Bryan was an excellent role model. John N. asked if there had been any previous plans to name the Bike Loop. Steve replied that there hadn't been any definite plans, but for about a year, there have been several recommendations from individuals trying to name the Bike Loop in Mr. Bryan's memory. In accordance with the Parks policy, Steve asked for the Board's recommendation to bring forward to the City Council. John N. asked if the recommendation was for the entire Bike Loop. Steve replied that it was, but that markers and signs would have to be considered before any recommendations could go to the City Council. Bill D. made a motion to support the petition as submitted and recommended that the College Station Bike Loop be named the Wayne Bryan Bike Loop, and that the petition be forwarded to the City Council for consideration. John C. seconded the motion. All were in favor, and the motion passed unanimously. Street and Facility naming for Veterans Park and Athletic Complex: Steve stated that this petition is to support the Veterans Park and Athletic Complex Subcommittee's recommendation for naming the streets and facilities at Veterans Park and Athletic Complex. He said that the Department had not received the required number of signatures according to the Parks policy at this time. (The Parks policy requires 25 signatures, and there were only 21.) John N. asked if Board members were eligible to sign the petition. Steve replied that they were. John Nichols, Bill Davis, Jon Turton, Laura Wood, Glenn Schroeder, Glen Davis, and John Crompton signed the petition and brought the total to 28 signatures, which met the required number for the Parks policy. Eric Ploeger went over a map of the Park with the proposed names. Chris B. asked if the Veterans Memorial flag would be incorporated as part of the signage at the entrance of the park. Steve responded that the Department had discussed it, and would like to incorporate it into the entry area. Bill D. made a motion to support the petition with the proposed names for Veterans Park and Athletic Complex streets and facilities and forward it to the City Council for consideration. John N. seconded the motion. All were in favor, and the motion passed unanimously. 8. Presentation, discussion, and possible action concerning a park land dedication for Sun Meadows Phase II Development: Steve stated that this item is a park land dedication in the area that is immediately to the south of Southwood Valley Athletic Park (in Zone 5). Eric P. went over a map of the proposed development. He stated that a portion of the development has already been built. The developer has already dedicated $115,000 and does not wish to give any park land in the proposed dedication. Instead, the developer wishes to dedicate additional cash in lieu of land. Department staff have figured the rest of the dedication owed to be approximately $43,872. The neighborhood that is being developed would have good access to Southwood Valley Athletic Park, which has neighborhood park amenities, so an additional neighborhood park in that vicinity was not recommended. The dedication funds could also be used to put some enhancements in the existing park as well. Eric went on to say that the Department is anticipating that some of the neighborhood parks in the same zone could also benefit from these funds (i.e. Edelweiss Park and Jack and Dorothy Miller Park). The Board had concerns with the connection from the Development to Southwood Athletic Park. The Board asked when the developer's proposal would go to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Eric responded that the final plat would be presented to them on June 21, 2001. John N. made a motion to accept the cash dedication in lieu of land for Sun Meadows, Phase II, with the provision that the access from Schaffer Road to Arnold Road, and potentially into Southwood Valley Athletic Complex, be maintained. Glenn S. seconded the motion. All were in favor, and the motion passed unanimously. Glen D. requested a park land dedication balance sheet for the next meeting. 9. Discussion, consideration, and possible action concerning City Council Vision Statement #4 (Cultural Arts and Recreational Opportunities): Steve updated the Board on the City Council planning retreat that took place on May 14, 2001. He passed out a list of the Council's eight vision statements and strategies (see attached). He stated that the City is in the process of working on implementation plans for the strategies that would be presented to the City Council on June 28, 2001. Once those implementation plans are approved, there will be projects that the Board will be asked to work on (for example, coordination with the Planning and Zoning Commission and park land dedication issues.) Steve added that the implementation schedule for Veterans Park and Athletic Complex would be moved up to a possible five-year time frame. There is the possibility of building portions of the park by using funds from a mini bond issue. John C. suggested asking for additional staff to help the process move along faster. Steve stated that it would probably be difficult to get additional staff with the financial forecast (a shortfall in sales tax revenue, which drives the general fund). Council has also asked that the issue of playground safety be addressed, and the Department has asked for additional funding in the fiscal year 2002 budget to address this issue. This was an informational item only, and no motion was made. 10. Consent Items: Capital Improvement Projects Report: John C. asked what the status was on the Lick Creek Park Trails Grant. Eric replied that it is on the Department's work schedule for fiscal year 2002. The money for the trails is available, but the matching bond money will not be available until fiscal year 2002 (starting October 1, 2001). Chris B. asked what the status was of the high school tennis court lights. Eric stated that he has talked to the construction manager, Bill Savage. There is apparently a problem with broken concrete on the courts. Mr. Savage indicated that the School District would like to do the repair work on the courts and add the additional lighting at the same time, which could possibly be during the fiscal year 2002 budget year. Eric stated that he could encumber the City's portion of the money until that time. John N. asked what the Parks Department's involvement was with the medians on George Bush Drive. Eric stated that the Texas Department of Transportation is rebuilding the roadway and putting in raised medians all the way to Texas Avenue. There may be some landscaping required on those medians, and that is where the Parks Department would become involved in the project. John C. asked what the status was on the Community Park purchase. Steve stated that the City Council had authorized the purchase, but he is not sure if the City has actually closed on the property and received the title to it. Jon T. asked when the City will take possession of the landfill. Steve stated that the time line keeps changing, because the life of it keeps extending. He believes that the City will probably take possession within six to seven years. Discussion of next meeting date and agenda: The next regular Board meeting will be held on Tuesday, July 10, 2001, at 7:00 p.m. Steve stated that there might be some special Board meetings scheduled during the course of the summer. Glen D. asked for an updated Veterans Park and Athletic Complex time line from the Engineers (O'Malley Engineers). John C. asked what the status was of the departmental fee study. Steve stated that he had recently received the report, but had not had a chance to review it yet. This item will be on a future agenda. John N. would like to invite the Greenways Coordinator, Judy Downs, to a future meeting (between now and September). JoM C. Gwould Like to hajje, some, future discussion on hiring so m eone to do a class dissertation con cerililig the 19story of the Parks and Recreation Dep wment. Laura W. would Re a discussion of a potential "Bark Park." ion T. had concerns about the effectiveness of the darks and Recreation Board. He staked that he had heard a lot of reports during the Meeting, but didn't feel that the, meeting was very productive. III(.- ask-ed what the actual role of the Board was. Steve stated that this was a valid point. He said that the Parks and Recreation Board is appoh-itedbar the City Council and serve as advisors to the Council. He went on to say that soine meetings would be nacre productive than others, but that the Board Nwould stave ark active role in establishing joint priorifie�s with the Planning and, Zonfing Commission and working on City Council issues and priorities withhi the next year, 'I'lle, Board also, has authority in certain paf.k band dedication issues as well. John C. added that t1here are a nurWber of tMinggs that the Board can accomplish that staff camof by going directly to flue, City Council. He nwrned several recent accornplisli-n-nents of the Board: - Greernways bond issuie; - revision. of the Park, land dedication ordimance; - skate park.; - additional lighting at tie AS-,-.'I,%4 Consolidated High School to- nis couits; - the Recrecation, Park and Open Space Master Plan; - an Urban Forest h4aniagernent Plan; and I Playground Safety.

Charles Cryan, Director of Fiscal Services Council Meeting Date® `May 10, 2001 Director Approval: City Manager Approval:. Presentation, discussion,• possible action regarding funding for Veterans Park and Athletic Complex Phase I development. Item Summary: Staff will give a brief report regarding potential funding sources for the Veterans Park and Athletic Complex Phase I project. Item Background® The 1995 General Obligation Bond election included a proposition in the amount of $1,500,000 to purchase a large tract of land to be used as a regional athletic park. The proposition was approved and a 150-acre tract was acquired from Bert Wheeler, Ltd. in August 1998. The 1998 General Obligation Bond election included an amount of $2,120,000 for the design and initial development of the new site. This election was successful and the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board designated the implementation of the new park as one of their top priorities. In December of 1999, the Texas Engineering Extension Service was contracted to conduct an archaeological survey of the site. It was necessary to conduct this survey prior to development of this public project. During the initial archaeological review, three Native American artifact sites were located that required additional investigation to see if they were significant enough to alter the master plan for the park. The results of this additional work indicated that no changes to the master plan were required. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board conducted a public hearing on February 1, 2000, regarding the proposed master plan. Also, the Veterans Memorial Association of the Brazos Valley formally considered and endorsed the master plan at their regular meeting on March 2, 2000. The park has been designated as the site for a permanent memorial honoring all veterans. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board held a second public hearing on May 9, 2000, and approved a motion recommending acceptance of the master plan. The master plan was considered and approved by the City Council on May 25, 2000. O'Malley Engineers developed two alternatives with associated cost estimates for each. Alternate one included four full-size soccer fields, two adult softball fields (no lights for either soccer or softball), restroom facilities, parking, street and utility extensions, landscaping, and an entrance area. Alternate two included six full-size soccer fields (two lighted), restroom facilities, parking, street and utility extensions, landscaping, and an entrance area. At their regular meeting on March 6, 2001, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board approved a motion to recommend alternative two as the Phase I development for the park. The Board also recommended that the first item in the next bond election be a five -field softball complex. The motion also included a recommendation for the subcommittee to work with the staff to enhance the project's landscaping with remaining funds available from the project. At the March 22, 2001 Council meeting, staff received direction to proceed with the Veterans Park project with specific direction to do several things: 1. the first phase of the project should include four (4) soccer fields (two (2) lighted), and two (2) softball fields (both lighted); in addition, bid alternates would include: 2. two (2) additional soccer fields (not lighted), and 3. additional landscaping. Budgetary and Financial Summary: The site was acquired in 1998 for the amount of $1,500,000 from 1995 bond funds. The amount of $2,120,000 (from 1998 bond funds) is budgeted for the master plan and initial development of the park. Of this amount, $168,000 is budgeted for O'Malley Engineers for design services. The archaeological study cost an amount of approximately $24,144 leaving an amount of approximately $1,850,000 available for construction of Phase I. The staff has reviewed the direction of the council and estimates that the additional costs associated with the first phase as desired by the council will add an additional amount of $400,000 to the base project cost, increasing the budget from approximately $2.1 million to $2.5 million. The "add" alternates would increase the projected cost of the project by an additional amount of $465,000 making the total estimated project budget in the amount of $2,985,000. Staff has identified several means of funding the additional costs: 1) Delay or scrap other projects The City does not specify in the bond ordinance any specific projects, though we try to •• the projects that are list.r in the information provided r citizens forthe election. Tw• projects included in th_ 1998 •• • authorization could be delayed or abandoned to provide authorization• • be -d for Veteransthe development of Lick Creek Park ($400,000) and a project that does not have voter approval, the rollerblade •. .1 111 park project received,is included in a grant application that the city has made and if would require grant award.The roller supportblade park is a commitment to the city's young people and has wide • group of • -• from consideration e a • of - community park land, based on direction from• •. 2) Issue additional debt instruments The City is not required to have certificates of obligation (COs) approved by the voters and they can become obligations that are repaid through the ad valorem tax rate. If the entire amount for the increased costs ($865,000) were funded through issuing COs it would add approximately 0.3 (three tenths) cents per $100 taxable value to the ad valorem tax rate. 3) Use existing funds The council could authorize the use of existing resources from the General, Electric, Water or other fund balance, or combination of fund balances. The funds could be used as either a transfer or a loan. If this mechanism is effected as a loan, it has the same. effect as a debt issuance in that repayment would probably come from the General Fund and would impact the ad valorem tax rate similar to the issuance of debt instruments. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Council direct staff to increase the issuance of CO's by $865,000, plus additional debt issuance costs, to fund both the base bid as directed by Council and to provide funding for the two "add" alternates identified by Council. This recommendation will have the effect of directing the City Manager to provide for an increase in'the ad valorem tax rate of 0.3 (three tenths) cents per $100 dollars of taxable value in the proposed budget for FY 02 to pay the additional debt service. This recommendation is different than the original memo prepared by the Director of Fiscal Services based on additional information and input by staff. If Council does not wish to direct staff to issue the $865,000 in additional debt, then staff would return to the original recommendation of using $400,000 from the General Fund -fund balance and issue $465,000 of additional CO's and increasing the ad valorem tax rate by 0.17 (seventeen one hundredths) cents per $100 value. Council Action Options: 1. Direct staff to implement the project by issuing certificates of obligation for all or part of the project. 2. Direct staff to develop additional alternatives for consideration. 3. Delay bidding and construction of the facilities at Veterans Park and Athletic Complex. 4. Reduce the scope of the project such that funds authorized will be sufficient to cover the cost of the project. 5. Provide other guidance to the staff. Supporting Materials® 1.

He went on to say that the T-shirts would display the veterans memorial on the front, and an image of World War 11 soldiers on the back. John asked what the status was of purchasing recognition bricks for the memorial. He stated that people had asked him for prices and he wasn't sure what the to tell them. P. David stated that the Finance Committee would have to work on this subject, and added that no decision could actually be made about the type of recognition and its associated costs until after the artist is chosen to design the memorial. Deborah reported that she had received a couple of fund-raising/publicity offers from the Hollywood 16 Movie Theater. She stated that the theater is promoting the movie "Pearl Harbor" on Memorial Day weekend, and added that the manager of the theater had suggested having the Veterans Memorial Committee set up a booth in the theater lobby, play the memorial promotion video, hand out flyers, and promote the memorial. She added that Circuit City could possibly lend the large -screen televisions and get them up to play the video. Steve suggested that people could work shifts, and asked Deborah if she could set up time slots for people to work. Deborah said that she would. There is also an opportunity for screen time at the theater. In order to get it, Craig would be required to write a letter, explaining the Committee's intentions, and include information on its non-profit status. The Committee would also need to provide slides. The cost is $100 for two (2) weeks running, and the theater would run those slides before feature presentations. Public Relations[Marketing Committee: Steve said that he and the College Station City Manager visited the Lions Club to promote the memorial. Steve was also interviewed on the Sharon Colson show (he will contact the Board when he knows what day/time the show will air). He also mentioned that the memorial advertisement tape is currently showing on the City's access channel every hour, at five (5) minutes after the hour. He went on to say that he and Craig had presented the project to the College Station City Council and Joint Relief Funding Committee as well. Craig stated that he has also showed the video to several veterans organizations, and will be meeting with the Bryan City Council on Tuesday, May 1, 2001. Page 2 of 3 Memorldfor aff Veterans of the Brazos Valley, Ina Historical Committee: John Velasquez, Chairman of the Historical Committee, stated that his committee has been looking at several computer -generated historical archive programs, and asked the Board for direction. Craig asked John to come back to the Board during the next meeting with three (3) options for the Board to choose from and vote on. John was concerned about misuse of the veterans memorial logo, and asked if it could be copyright or trademarked. A motion was made to take action to copyright the veterans memorial logo and follow up with a trademark. The motion was seconded. All were in favor, and the motion passed unanimously. Richard will follow up on the.trademark. P. David added that the Board could not copyright or trademark the logo until it is purchased from the designer. A motion was made to rescind the motion to take action to copyright the veterans memorial logo and follow up with a trademark. The motion was seconded. All were in favor, and the motion passed unanimously. 4. Reports off officers: Tre2snreir Report- Paulette gave the financial report. She stated that current balance was $7,004.92.

Commie Hooks, City Secretary Date: Roue of Texas A&M University Residents of College Station are pleased that a major section of the bike loop will soon be opened. The attached petition represents their support for a request that the bike loop be named in memory of Wayne Bryan, a local cyclist and businessman who was a member of our community for many years. Bicycles move us in so many ways. Literally, figuratively, emotionally and fiscally. When we were children, it was the bicycle that was the ultimate toy, for it gave us freedom and empowerment as it provided us with hours of enjoyment and a new means of expression. In later years, it became transportation as we took our bikes to school, to our friends' houses and further than our parents ever realized. The college years found us often on our bicycles, as they were the truest and most dependable means of getting to campus. Many of us have kept riding, but do it now to express ourselves physically, or to share the day with family or friends, or just to clear the cobwebs out of our brains. Cycling gives back so much to the cyclist, whether he, or she, is a curb jumping first grader, a campus bound college student, a two wheeled wild flower tourist, or a racer knocking out the miles. They are all of one family, brought together by their bicycles. A man who brought together, moved and befriended many cyclists was Wayne Bryan. Wayne was killed while cycling on August 10, 1997 when the driver of a car fell asleep at the wheel, crossed the white line and struck Wayne from behind. Wayne owned two bike shops, rode intensely and was as good a man as anyone could meet, on or off the bike. Wayne knew the glory of a hard ride with fast friends, but he also recognized the pleasures of an easy ride with more casual riders. Many of us can't help but think of Wayne, but not of his death, whenever the topic of cycling graces our conversations or enters our days. The College Station Bike Loop is designed to allow children, of all ages, and adults, of all ages, to safely ride their bikes, as recreation, transportation, inspiration or meditation. When completed, the loop will provide greater ease of access to a large portion of College Station. As cyclists, we are excited by the options and opportunities offered by the loop, and as friends of Wayne, we who have signed these attached pages find it altogether fitting and proper that Wayne be honored and remembered by naming the College Station Bike Loop after him. We applaud the City for implementing the College Station Bike Loop. As residents and registered voters of College Station, Texas we request that the Bike Loop be named in memory of Waine Bryan.
