Item #7
CASH REGISTERS
We have been working with a representative from National
Cash Register in an effort to improve fiscal control in
various Commission parks.
The areas that we are concerned about are Springfield -Oaks
Golf Pro Shop, Groveland-Oaks and Addison -Oaks admissions.
There has been no way to break out each separate function
taking place in these areas with the type of equipment that
has been made available.
It is recommended that the following NCR machines be purchased:
Springfield Pro Shop
(1) NCR 24-301-CCD-TC-SW...................$1,540.
Groveland Entrance
(1) NCR 24-321 Preset ......................$1,570.
Addison Entrance
(1) NCR 24-321 Preset ......................$1,570.
$4,680.
We have worked with Central Purchasing on these machines. It
is recommended that there is no advantage to bidding due to
the G. A. S. rating (Governmental Accounting Services).
Item #8
COMMISSION MATCHES
At the meeting of August 24, 1973 the Commission requested
additional information on the cost of matches which the
Commission first purchased in 1970.

cide to reorder.

Item #9
PROPOSED PUBLIC RECREATION FUND
The Michigan Recreation and Park Association is moving forward
with a new legislative package to fulfill the needs identified
by the impact on local government from the 1969 State Recreation
Bond Program.
MRPA is asking all persons concerned about the future of
recreation funding to contact Governor Milliken, State Legis-
lators and DNR Director, A. Gene Gazlay, about our specific
needs for both the long range and short range future of Parks
and Recreation in Oakland County. We need to be heard from
as budget makers claim that "they never hear from anyone
regarding recreation".
I have enclosed a sample of a Bill that we should ask our
State Legislators to introduce as well as another fact sheet.
This is very important and should be discussed at our meeting
to great length.
MICHIGAN RECREATION AND PARK ASSOCIATION
TML OFFICES, SUITE 11
6425.S. PENNSYLVANIA
LANSING, MICHIGAN 48910
November 28, 1973
To: MRPA Executives
From: John F. Greenslit
Subject: PUBLIC RECREATION FUND
Action Request
Each local recreation and/or park executive should ask Michigan
State Legislators to introduce the following Bill:
AN ACT to establish under the jurisdiction of the Department of Natural
Resources a public recreation fund for grants-in-aid to local units of
government for public recreation purposes to be known as the Recreation
Fund and to make annual appropriations to this fund.
THE PUBLIC RECREATION FUND is created in the state treasury and shall
exist until 1999. There shall be paid into the fund all monies approp-
riated by the state to the Department for this program, together with
any other monies from other sources which may be made available for such
purposes.
MONIES from this fund shall be allocated to local units of government to
be used to initiate recreation facilities to satisfy deficiencies in local
recreation services.
Strategy
Introduction of the Bill will allow for public hearings to be held
to determine the details of the program. It is the intent of MRPA to have
the Bill drawn in as simple form as possible to allow the maxium flexibility
in drawing up guidelines for fund allocation, grant procedures , project
priorities, approval of projects, rules and implementation of the Act.
Suggestions
It would be recommended that NEW program be in affect for at least
25 years,. Studies show that nearly $180 Million is needed just to meet
9tThgneeds, without considering new ones. This figure however is not
realistic within current State budget contraints, but $10-$20 Million
annually -co - u - ld be attainable.
Revenue -haring has seen a reduction of over 40 per cent of available
federal dollars, so this is NOT an alternative to meeting Michigan's needs.
The Act could be funded via the State General Fund or other new revenues as
identified by the Legislature and/or Budget experts.

2. PUBLIC RECREATION FUND
Postive Positions
1. Governor Milliken identified the need to delivery of recreation services
in the urban areas in his 1973 policy statement document.
2. Urban recreation via an extended Grant -in -Aid program will supplement
DNR proposals for urban fisheries and put -and -take hunting recreation
proposals.
3.. An "outside" study of recreation needs was requested by Governor Milliken,
completed by MRPA, and identified the great need for continued State of
Michigan financial grants -in -aids.
4. The Department of Natural Resources has identified urban recreation as
their top priority via budget requests in 1973 and again in 1974.
5. The overwhelming documentation of the great need is further complimented
by the affects of the ENERGY CRISIS, which will severely limit travel
and place great demands for recreation within reasonable driving distances
of everyone.
6. It is projected that in excess of 166 new governmental agencies have
been created as a direct result of the $100 Million Recreation Bond
program of 1969.
7. There has never been greater public pressures being applied to the
Department of Natural Resources to be responsive to "Programs for the
People", with emphasis on the human resource being the most important
natural resource.in Michigan.
8. MRPA is never been in a greater position to advocate, promote, guide,
and virtually determine the destiny of public recreation for the next
quarter of a century. The challenge is great but within reach.
Summary
Michigan can not afford NOT to support this program. The ultimate
result of failure of continuing support would be a disaster that would
take centuries to overcome. The social pressures and economic influences
caused by the failure to act positively would real a blow from which we
may never recover.
Will you personally help make it a success? Can we count on your
participation? OPERATION ALERT needs your involvement today! Call your
MRPA office if you have questions, 517-393-9470.
