MINUTES
Members Present: Gary Santos, Chair; Tom ORourke, G. M. Whitley
Staff Present: Eric DeMoura, Steve Gergick
Mr. Santos called the meeting to order at 9:00 a.m.
1. Approval of Minutes from the June 4, 2019 meeting
Mr. ORourke made a motion to approve the June 4, 2019 minutes. Ms.
Whitley seconded the motion. All were in favor.
2. Public Comments
Ms. Maureen McGuire spoke about the programs and celebrations at
the Thomasena Stokes-Marshall Senior Center.
3. Discussion of field and facility rental fees
Fee Changes Proposal
Mr. Gergick gave a presentation on a proposal for fee changes for the
Recreation Department. He presented Athletic Fee Changes, Facility
Rental Fee Changes, Aquatics Fee Changes, and Senior Center Fee
Changes.
Mr. ORourke asked how they differentiate between residents and
non-residents for field rentals and if a Mount Pleasant resident could
rent the field but have a lot of non-residents playing on the field.
Mr. Gergick said it was difficult to keep up with. He said a resident
could sign up for the rental, but 80 percent of the roster had to be
Mount Pleasant residents.
Mr. ORourke asked if guest fees at the pool was an issue.
Mr. Gergick said that guest fee would be under a daily pool visit.
Ms. Whitley asked if the additional funds that would be brought in
would be used to support and expand the Recreation Department
rather than eliminate the subsidy. She said she did not want to take
away funds from the Department because of the increase but wanted
to keep it all in the Department.
Mr. Gergick said funds would not specifically increase the
Recreation budget as they would go to the General Fund. He said it
would provide him justification to be able to request more in the next
budget cycle.
Mr. DeMoura said it needed approved first by the Committee and
then a decision by Council. He said it was a fee increase and they
would have to have the required public hearing, but they could proceed
with approval by the Recreation Committee.
Mr. ORourke made a motion to approve the fee change proposal
submitted by the Recreation Department. Ms. Whitley seconded the
motion. All were in favor.
Mr. Gergick said the intent was that it would be for it to take effect
in January.
4. Program/projects update
Mr. Gergick gave a program/projects update and provided information
on the Departments activities. He said there was a ribbon cutting for
the Town Hall Gym on July 25 and the Special Events Staff held the
Sweetgrass Festival on July 13. He said that Music and Movies in the
Park were being held every Friday night in August at Waterfront Park.
He said that on August 16 they would be celebrating the ten-year
anniversary of Memorial Waterfront Park.
