A committee made up of representatives from the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs Department and the Farmington Convention and Visitors' Bureau requested by email possible names for the facility from City of Farmington employees. The desire is to create a name that has marketability and to support the themed component of the facility. A name that evokes adventure and distinguishes the facility as uniquely belonging to our region and community will help make the facility appealing to visitors. The committee reviewed names from the emai l call and chose four. The four names were Bisti Bay at Brookside Park, Enchanted Oasis at Brookside Park, Bluff Basin Water Park at Brookside Park, and Farmington Aquatic Badlands (FAB) at Brookside Park. These four names plus an option to suggest one were sent out for public survey. The survey received 570 responses with Bisti Bay at Brookside Park receiving the most responses. The survey results were presented to the Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Affairs Commission in August. The Commission was supportive of the Bis ti Bay at Brookside Park name; however, they wanted Brookside more prominent in the name. Staff reviewed the survey results and presented the name Brookside 's Bis ti Bay at the September Commission meeting for consideration. After discussion, the Commission unanimously approved recommending the name be Brookside 's Bis ti Bay for the new family aquatic center.
