OLD BUSINESS
Mike Walker, Director Parks and Community Services
1. Capital Improvement Plan
Jimmy Thomas Memorial Park renovations have been completed.
Purchase order for the four shade structures at the Splash Pad have been submitted at a
cost of $52,000, not including installation. The budget is $75,000 so if it goes over, we will
reduce the number of shade structures to three.
David Blanks restroom renovations are ongoing and budgeted at $75,000 however, actual
figures came in at around $140,000.
The scoreboards at Jimmy Thomas Memorial Park are functioning, if they continue to
function, $30,000 out of the budget can be shifted to the David Blanks restroom project.
Additional funds will be requested in October.
You will see on the Capital Improvement Plan that we have completed some of the projects
and a few are still in process.
2. Update aSouth Lake Regional Park
Status remains the same as last month. Dirt continues to be removed and Malever
Trucking has been on site since November.

PRESENTATIONS
Strategic Plan Update - Tim Maslow, Community Development and Economic Director
Mr. Maslow gave a presentation on the Strategic plan and noted they put together a
planning committee in October of last year and the task was to create a city wide strategic
plan that was not specific to internal city operations, but was to involve everyone citywide;
city government, local businesses, and residents, something that everyone could get
involved in and be a part of.so that we are all working towards a common goal. The plan
was adopted in June of 2022 after eight months of work and presentations by the
committee.

of Intentionality, Connectivity, Vitality, Knowledge and Heart noting this presentation is
targeted towards what Groveland will look like in 10 years.

a format that would help you to analyze at the end of the year when planning future events
and Director Walker agreed.
OLD BUSINESS
Mike Walker, Director Parks and Community Services
1. Capital Improvement Plan
Director Walker reported the splash pad shade structures have been ordered however the
quantity was cut back from 4 down to 2 shade structures. The reason for the cutback is
the David Blanks Park Restroom which Is about 40% completed and was originally
budgeted at $75,000 has incurred an increase in cost. Since the scoreboards at Jimmy
Thomas Memorial Park are working, they have transferred the funds for new scoreboards
in the amount of $30, 000 and the funds for the additional 2 shade structures to the David
Blanks project.
He noted there is park signage funding in the 2023 budget as well as kiosks for the parks
and above ground water features for the splash pad.
Director Walker noted that Groveland was chosen as one of 10 agencies by the National
Recreation and Park Association to compete in the Niagra Perk Your Park contest where
the top three voted agencies will receive $75,000 funding for their splash pad. As soon as
2
JULY 12, 2022, RECREATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE (RAC) MEETING MINUTES
he receives all of the information on voting he will get that information out to you, so please
share with your friends and family.
2. Update -Cherry Lake Park
Director Walker noted that at the April meeting we had an update with handouts but now
we have something a little more professional to see. We had several budget workshops
with City Council last month and they have supported the Master Plan process and
identified what they would like to see in Phase II, ie. "Natural Charm Playground Zones
with elements consisting of Swings, Spinners, Climbers, Ramped structures, a Zip line,
Seesaws, Toddler Swings, Toddler structures, and picnic tables. He scrolled through
slides of the proposed playground elements showing shade structures. He also reviewed
the Construction Cost Estimate noting the project was originally estimated at $2.4 million
but Chris Coghill and the procurement team worked with their vendors and actual figures
are $1.9 million with a $500,00 savings. City Council has given us a budget of 1.3 million
FY23 to be added to the 3 million which will carry forward. Design and construction
documents should be completed by AugusUSeptember.

3. Challenged Champions and Heroes - Chairperson Joscelvn Campbell
Chairperson Joscelyn Campbell noted the Challenged Champions and Heroes Awards,
and Family Fun Afternoon will happen on July 30 th . She noted July 29 th is National
Challenged Champions and Heroes Day and our city has followed that as well with a
proclamation to make July 29 th Challenged Champions and Heroes Day here in Groveland
as well. We are partnering with Parks and Rec Department and the Back 2 School
Backpack Day. The way it will work is while children are picking up their back packs
starting at 10:00 am, the specials needs children will be in respite care inside the sanctuary
from 10:00am - 11 :30am. At 11 :30am the special needs children will get to pick up their

go right into the event with hotdogs, bounce house, vendors, etc., and it's just going to be
a family fun day. Also, between 12:00pm and 2:30pm they will be presenting the
challenged champions and heroes awards to care givers, we are also presenting to leaders
of the community and city employees. She noted she would love for the RAC members to
be there.
4. Recreation Advisory Committee Responsibilities - Chairperson Joscelvn Campbell
Chairperson Joscelyn Campbell noted this is something the committee needs to discuss.
She began by explaining the Committee Member Chuck Kenzig had originally brought up
the idea of splitting up RAC responsibilities, not to take away the individual reporting
responsibilities, but a way to effectively utilize our responsibilities and at the same time
help Mike by splitting up our best assets.
Committee Member Chuck Kenzig asked everyone to look at the current RAC duties and
see if you have the desire to take on some of these duties based on your experience or
interest.
3
JULY 12, 2022, RECREATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE (RAC) MEETING MINUTES
Committee Member Amanda Trawick asked if there was a liability with the city if one of
them volunteers to do something and they get injured.
Vice-Chair Linda Cowels noted the suggestion on the floor is that we read through the
responsibilities listed, and we should read them out loud, so we understand them . These
are our responsibilities and duties as an advisory board member and when we came
onboard, we signed on to fulfill these responsibilities. Committee Member Chuck Kenzig
is asking you to see if there is an area that you would like to give more of your time and
attention to help this committee and this city advance
Vice-Chair Linda Cowels read the responsibilities as follows:
1. Serve in an advisory capacity to the Council and City Manager on matters pertaining to
public recreation, parklands, and related facilities.
2. To serve in an advisory capacity to the Council and City Manager on matters pertaining
to art, literature, music, theatre, and other related activities.

recreation areas, squares, and grounds, including playgrounds, concessions and
recreational and related facilities and programs installed and maintained therein.

the acquisition, development and improvement of parklands and recreational areas.

interest, and to solicit to the fullest extent the cooperation of schools, local youth and
public and private agencies.
8. To give input on park and recreation grant requests and assist the City Council and City
Staff with lobbying granting agencies or organizations for funding.
Vice-Chair Cowels stated these are our responsibilities and duties, and for her
personally, she understood what Committee Member Chuck Kenzig suggested from
the beginning, because she thought the same thing. She noted when she is going to a
board or an organization, one of her first things to do is look at what are the duties on
this board, it's like a job description. She noted that she gravitated to number 8, that is
one of the fields that she felt she had expertise in and knew she would be applying for
grants for the benefit of the city, not just the benefit of her organization. but for the
benefit of the community in which she serves.
Chairperson Joscelyn Campbell noted there was no liability in fulfilling these duties of
the board which are our responsibility.
4
JULY 12, 2022, RECREATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE (RAC) MEETING MINUTES
Committee Member Chuck Kenzig suggested they go around the table to see who
might see an opportunity they want to volunteer for. He feels he would be best at
numbers 5 and 6 as well as 8.
Vice-Chair Linda Cowels volunteered for number 8 and number 7.
Committee member Shana Martin volunteered for number 1.
Committee Member Michael Gris volunteered for number 5.
Committee Member Paula Hall volunteered for number 4.
Chairperson Joscelyn Campbell encouraged the RAC members to be present at City
events. It has been mentioned and is noticed when RAC is not present at City events.
She explained that as board members of the RAC it is expected that we not only help
Mike and his staff but that we are also in attendance at city events.
Committee Member Chuck Kenzig suggested that Mike let them know when it is
particularly important to have RAC presence at a particular meeting or event.
Discussion took place regarding board members desiring to communicate with each
other outside of board meetings. Director Walker reminded them that Sunshine Law
prohibits board members from talking about board issues outside of a board meeting.
5. 2023 Calendar of Events - Discussion and Approval
Director Walker noted the 2023 Calendar of Events was included in the City Council
Budget Workshop and does contain budgetary factors therefore it will require approval.
The calendar is the same other than the Centennial event has been removed and we will
hold a Founders Week Celebration instead.
He noted there is a typo in August, "Back to School Event should read, "Back to School
Movie".
Chairperson Joscelyn Campbell shared her desire to have an event for Challenged
Champions and Heroes added to the July Calendar since the City has proclaimed July 29 th
as Challenged Champions and Heroes Day.
Committee Member Martin motioned to approve the 2023 Calendar of Events with the
addition of an event for Challenged Champions and Heroes in the month of July, date yet
to be determined. The motion was seconded by Committee Member Chuck Kenzig.
Motion carried unanimously.
