ITEM # 4d
ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE POLICY
(FOOD AND BEVERAGE OPERATION)
Question has been expressed pertaining to the administration
of the facilities the Commission operates dealing with food and
beverage.
Points in question are:
-Should the Commission advertise through the news media.
-Hours of operation- present operation pertains the
hours of the golf operation. Extended hours are in
conjunction with banquet obligations. No sit down bar.
Off season operation is presently being conducted
pursuant to the thought in keeping continuity in
well trained personnel that is necessary to provide
good service to the patron year round. Hours are
limited to luncheon during the week. Dinner is served
on Friday and Saturday in conjunction with weekend
banquets reservations as per public demand.
The above points are in keeping with the direction the
Commission has given the staff in implementing services.
ITEM #4e
PURCHASE OF ORGAN
ADDISON OAKS CONFERENCE CENTER
Based on the quotations received from Morris Music Company,
Gallagher Music Company, and Grinnell's Music Company, it is
recommended that the Hammond T-500 organ from Grinnell's be purchased
for the Conference Center for $2,003.00.
Attached is a breakdown of the quotations received and the
recommendations from Jon J. Kipke, Deputy Director, and Pauline
McCormick, Administrative Assistant.
I have reviewed this purchase with Jon and Pauline and concur
in their recommendation.
TO: R. ERIC REICKEL
SUBJECT: PURCHASE OF ORGAN FOR ADDISON OAKS CONFERENCE CENTER
FROM: JON J. KIPKE
In securing quotations for the purchase of an organ for the
Addison -Oaks Conference Center, Pauline McCormick and myself visited
three music stores and discussed thoroughly with them the features,
cost, and serviceability of each organ.
The cost analysis is as follows:
Morris Music Company
Gulbransen, Paragon Deluxe $2,645.00
Gallagher Music Company
Lowrey Citation 1,995.00
Grinnell's Music Company
Hammond T 500 2,003.00
Other models at each company were looked at and priced. They
are not shown because it is felt these are the most comparable and
desirable for the usable at the Conference Center.
Of the three listed, it is our recommendation that the Hammond
T-500 from Grinnell's be purchased. This organ has pedal and key
board draw bars which are more desirable than the tabs on the other
two organs and its tone quality is far superior to both the
Gulbransen and the Lowrey.

be discussed with the Board of County Commissioners
upon the approval of the Springfield activities report
that is part of our agenda.

E. Golf Course Design
Mr. DeVries will be present at our meeting to present
the preliminary layout for the new back nine and the
reanalysis of the front nine. At that time he will give
you not only the projected design but also the anticipated
cost for the development of the back nine and the realign-
ment of the front nine.
F. Mill Pond Plan
The preliminary Master Plan for the Mill Pond was

Commission the first week of January and will be presented
to you at our meeting. The Department of Facilities and
Operations has also analyzed the old Road Commission building
Page 2 - Park Development Progress Report 73-2
at the site and will have a rendering as to the
possible appearance and renovation of this building.
G. Old Clubhouse
We were prepared to approve the bid of Frank Quinlan
for the demolition of the old clubhouse, but a Mrs.
Parker who is a historic buff from the North Oakland
County area has brought to our attention that there may
be some possible historical significance to this facility.
Mr. Lacey is in the process of investigating this along
with some historical researchers from the area. It is
hoped that this investigation can conclude soon so we may
be able to proceed with either the moving or the demolition
of this facility.

C. Parking Lot Lighting - Conference Center
The Department of Facilities and Operations has
completed the design and will review them with the
Commission at our meeting.

Regards an apparent cost of $8,107. for electrical and mechanical
maintenance for the YAC: this figure represents the cost of main-
tenance by DFO and not billed to us for an 8 months period, an average
of $1,000.00 per month or $12,000/year. The costs cover the YAC
and its water tower.
-1-
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS FOR
MINIMUM 1973 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS AT YAC
SOUTH 3.5 ACRES CONVERSION FOR MIDWAY (CARNIVAL LOT
This approximate 3.5 acre area should be graded (unrefined)
to permit the 4H Carnival to operate there during the August
1973 4H Fair. The 4H agree. It is estimated that the cost
to grade and fill is $5,000.00, our minimum. The County°s
estimate should be obtained.
4H EXHIBITOR PARKING AREA, EAST OF YAC
An area east of YAC should be made into a sticker parking
site for official 4H cars and for emergency parking. It is
estimated that this area can be made to provide parking for
35 or 40 cars. The estimated cost of this is about $2,000.
ROADWAYS TO 4H EXHIBIT ARENA #2
These roadways must be developed to permit car and trailer
passage to the daytime arena #2. It is estimated that 75
to 100 truck loads of road gravel costing about $4,000.00
will be required.
FENCING FOR ARENA #2
A fence should be erected around arena #2. Most of the
fence materials from the old fairgrounds have been brought
here. The cost of labor and additional material to erect
this fence is estimated to be about $2,000.00
LIGHTING FOR THE YAC
Entrance Lights: It is the consensus of the staff and of
those persons who engaged production of the 1972 4H Fair
that the absence of lighting at the YAC`s main entrance, off
of Andersonville Road constitutes a dangerous situation for
all who enter and leave at this point. New light poles,
fixtures and service here could cost as much as $10,000.00
In addition to the entrance lighting, there is a need for
lighting along the entrance roadway leading to the parking
lot. Presently arena lights furnish the only lighting to
service this entrance road. Cost estimates for poles, service
and fixtures would vary according to the number of lighting
units deemed necessary. A conservative cost estimate would be
about $4,000.00 Inquiries should be started relative to the
acquisition of the previously mentioned used poles and fixtures.
ENTRANCE-DROPOFF LOOP
DFO is presently studing the improvement of the traffic flow
for better user drop off at the building as per Commission
request. As soon as study is complete, construction should be
authorized. Cost to be determined.
-2-
LIGHTING FOR YAC PARKING LOT
There should be more floodlights for the parking lot.
RIFLE RANGE-4H
The 4H have made a request for the installation of a
rifle range at the YAC. There is a well constructed $40,000.
storage building at the south end of these grounds. It has
a 40' x 60' area and could be converted into a rifle range.
This storage building could be used more effectively by this
conversion as a multiple use facility as well as storage. As
it is now, it is non-functional. Conversion costs are cal-
culated at about $7,000.00
ACOUSTICAL ANALYSIS AND MODIFICATION OF YAC EXHIBIT HALL
Acoustics in the large exhibit hall are marginal at best.
Analysis has been requested. Analysis and engineering costs
to make this large hall supportive of 4H and other possible
musical presentations are estimated at $18,000.00 Chevrolet
Division has made a gift of about $4,000 worth of show and
display drops which might be considered for use in improving
these acoustics.
ELECTRICAL CAPACITY FOR HOUSE TRAILERS
Electrical outlets with a capacity to support the needs of
at least twenty trailers must be placed along the tree -line
at the south end of the grounds. The immediate need is to
service 4H and carnival trailer -homes and additional requests
by campers for the use of these grounds if electrical facilities
were available. The cost for permanent service is estimated
at $2,000.00
TICKET BOOTHS
There should be two ticket booths provided for the sale of
tickets and the handling of money. Presently money is handled
in full view of everyone. The cost of materials for two such
booths is estimated at $500.00 Parks & Recreation could
furnish the labor in return for the use of the booths at
interim events.
LAND ACOUISITION FOR EXPANSION
Parks and. Recreation should proceed to acquire the parcels
contiguous to the south end of these grounds. Bordered by Hall
Road,; Scott Road,'and 275 Corridor. Approximately 20 acres
will be purchased-hy the State Highway Department when they
begin acquiring right of ways for 275 in replacement for the
10 acres they take from us. The remaining 50 acres should
also be purchased for expansion of the fair grounds.

SUMMARY OF CAPITAL REOUESTS
1-Grading 3.5 acres $5,000.00
2-Exhibitor Parking 2,000.00
3-Roadways to arena #2 4,000.00
4-Fencing for arena #2 2,000.00
5-YAC Lighting 10,000.00
6-Entrance dropoff loop
7-Rifle range 7,000.00

9-Electrical, house trailers 2,000.00
10-Ticket Booths 500.00
11-Land acquisition 70 acres(20 by 75,000.00
State) 50 acres @$1500.
* Acoustical modification -investigation of the feasibility
of a mobile sound stage to be used in all parks is under-
way. If it improves YAC sound, the cost of same would be less
than the $18,000. indicated above.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS -LONG RANGE
Pursuant to the report "Expansion Needs For The Oakland
County Youth Activities Complex", dated March 20, 1972,
which was developed by the Oakland County Board of Auditor's
Department of Facilities Operations, the Parks and Recreation
staff does hereby recommend the need for immediate implemen-

rnmmantc-
*l-The requested 2,300 seats are needed for the 1973 June -
July -August program which includes the 4H Fair & Rodeo.
If these seats cannot be built in 1973, then they must be
rented at a cost of about $3,000. Seats are an immediate
necessity and we request they either be built or rented for
the 1973 programs at YAC. However, we do not necessarily
concur in the cost price quoted in the foregoing report.
**5-The third capital item requested in the first part of
the subject report is for $4,000. _for necessary road
improvements. Both requests are for the same road improvements.
Staff has submitted a conservative cost estimate of $4,000;
Engineering a $10,000. cost estimate.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PROGRAMMING, NOW & FUTURE
A philosophical commitment to a program concept for
Springfield -Oaks should be made by the Oakland Parks &
Recreation Commission and the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners, before a 1973-1974 program is undertaken.
The following options are offered for the Parks & Recrea-
tion Commission's consideration and referal to the Board
of Commissioners.
STANDPATISM APPROACH
To advertise and depend on the overtures of others which
may eventuate. Such a format will require a minimum effort
and expense. The result will probably be small relative to
the capital investment. However, this method minimizes
risk capital.
Examples of the foregoing includes restricting program ac-
tivities to the booking of weddings, parties, etc.
DYNAMIC APPROACH
Promote and develop three or four major events for 1973 &
1974 together with an intermediate series of events such as
music concerts, dances, dog and horse shows. This format
will provide a continuity of activity which will give the
grounds maximum exposure, use, and maximum chance for gain
-5-
(DYNAMIC APPROACH CON`T)
and development. The risk involved is also proportionate
to the gain, especially during the first years of operation.
However, this risk when ratioed against the total present
and future investment contemplated here, does not seem
excessive.
S_PRINGFIELD-OAKS, PROPOSED 1973-74 PROGRAM
January Through April, 1973
1. Book and host an average of seven 4H Programs per month.
2. Continue land grubbing for golf course fence, site pre-
paration for golf course maintenance building.
3. Develop communications with profit and non-profit organi-
zations informing them of the new YAC and golf course
facilities.
4. Institute and begin the development of the May -June -July -
August formats.
5. Open and operate golf course.
MAY -SPECIAL PROGRAM
SPORTSMENS AND RECREATION SHOW
A three day public exposition of outdoor -indoor products,
equipment, and services used by all age groups in all seasons,
for vacation fun, sports recreation, travel and leisure living.
Oakland County Parks would co-sponsor the show together with
a group having similar interests and goals.
To have scope this exposition would be held indoor and outdoor
in late May to afford some security from adverse weather.
Estimated cost to produce $2,000-$2,500; estimated potential
gross revenue, $4,000-$5,000.
Lead time necessary, for such a relatively small program, is
about four months. Planning should begin now for a 1974 show.
It may already be too late for a 1973 event.
The YAC will host about 15 4H events in May.
The golf course and new clubhouse will be in full operation
throughout May. Parties and small June -July wedding receptions
will be booked into the golf course club house banquet rooms.
JUNE
SCOUT-O-RAMA
January through April efforts should result in an inaugural
Boy Scout Exposition to be held indoor and outdoors at YAC
during a three day period, the first weekend in June.
IRCUS, NORTH OAKLAND COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT_ AGENCIES
evnrTenDVn
The Miller -Johnson Circus made its debut at the YAC in 1972
and attracted about 25,000 people during seven performances.
The Miller -Johnson Circus under the same sponsorship, will
be booked at YAC either the second or third weekend in June.
Amusement Business Magazine reports that Miller -Johnson's
elephant menagerie, this year is larger than Ringling. This
is the first time in history of the circus -world that
Ringling has been second."
The circus is important: in 1972 it furnished about 30% of
all the attendance at YAC and about 45% of the gross revenue.
Oakland County Parks & Recreation made it possible for the 1972
circus to play in Oakland County. In 1972 the circus did not
have any seats and there were no county facilities with seats
available. Parks & Recreation obtained, transported and
erected a 5,000 seat stadium. This year the circus will re-
turn to YAC, but with their own seats.
OUTDOOR CONCERTS-JUNE & JULY
Plans should be started in February to produce one and maybe
two outdoor concerts in the outdoor horse arena. Acoustics
here are good. Plans begun now would be to determine the
style -economic -promotion and production formula.
Physical accoutrements for these concerts would not be elab-
orate but a pavilion/grandstand atmosphere can be effected
here.
There are to be 12 4H functions during June & July. During
February through April efforts will be made to book June &
July horse shows for the arena.
AUGUST -FIRST TWO WEEKS
4H FAIR
The 1972 4H Fair experienced extremely bad weather and it
reported an attendance of about 30,000; this is reportedly
a 300% decrease from previous attendance at the Pontiac site.
-7-
(AUGUST -FIRST 2 WEEKS-Con't)
If the 1973 4H Fair experiences good weather, this together
with the fact that the YAC has been introduced to about 80,000
more people during the past year, should help the Fair to a
40% to 50% gain in attendance. If the Fair realizes a 40,000
to 45,000 attendance, then it is necessary that all of the
foregoing recommendations, for lighting, roadways, parking
be implemented, in order that it operate as a safe and service-
able entity. The fact of a small 1972 attendance caused by
bad weather may have saved the 4H and the county the embarras-
sment of not being able to handle a larger crowd.
AUGUST -LAST TWO WEEKS
LORETTA LYNN'S LONGHORN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP RODEO
August 23-24-25-26
The staff has acted on the premise that a $1 million
facility such as the YAC, warrants an activity of more than
ordinary magnitude. In order to associate the YAC with a
major league event, the staff sought out Loretta Lynn's Long-
horn Championship Rodeo and proposed to them that LLL deviate
from their general policy of showing only in large indoor
arenas located in major markets.
Loretta Lynn's Longhorn World's Championship Rodeo is one
of the nation's premiere rodeos, owned by the nation's out-
standing Country & Western Singer, Loretta Lynn & produced
by Bruce Lehrke the country's number one rodeo producer. It
has played at the Michigan State Fairgrounds for the past eight
years. In 1972 it appealed to Dolly Cole (Mrs. Edward) so'
much that she rode the lead horse in the opening parade of
every performance and gave her own rodeo party.
The LLL Rodeo has accepted the Parks & Recreation Departments
offer and has agreed that if the Oakland County Parks Commission
will ratify the staff's invitation, the LLL Rodeo will break
with precedent and come to Davisburg August 23-24-25-26.
The terms of the LLL Rodeo's offer are essentially as follows:
1. LLL will produce the rodeo.
2. Oakland County Parks & Recreation will promote the rodeo.
3. The promoter will pay LLL Rodeo, the following amount
after the Final performance:
a) $3,000 contestant prize money
b) $14,000 for the rodeos direct costs
4. Oakland County Parks as promoter must invest the following
amount in the promotion of the rodeo:
a). $:_7,500 in advertising (or quivalents)
b) $1,500. (tickets $300.00--staffing $1,200)
(LLL RODEO-Con't)
5. Up to a gross sales of $35,000 Promoter (O.C. Parks)
gets 80% of gross; Producer (LLL Rodeo) 20% of gross.
6. After $35,000 the Promoter 60%-Producer 40%.
7. Total Costs
Contestants Purse $3,000.
Promoters Expense 9,000
Producers costs, guaranteed 14,000
$26,000
FLAT GUARANTEE
LLL Rodeo offers the option of accepting a flat guarantee
of $21,000 + $3,000 purse money a total of $24,000, in
which case they would not participate in receipts.

Notes•
In the event that a sponsor is required (a contact has been
made) to implement a pre -sale of tickets, and this is a
reasonable likelyhood, a 20% sales commission must be de-
ducted from total gross. Ex: .20 x $26,800 = $5,360.
Therefore, if sales are at .50 capacity and a 20% sales agency
is required, Parks will break-even.
The Loretta Lynn Longhorn Rodeo has asked for a decision to
contract for this event by early February 1973 in order for
them to book their contract acts for Davisburg.

RADIO COMMUNICATIONS BID
Bids for the first phase of the radio communications
system were received on January 29, 1973. Two companys sub-
mitted bids, Motorola and RCA. The third company, General
Electric, said they did not receive the information, so there-
fore they were unable to respond.
The tabulation for the two eligible companys is below;

R.C.A.-The equipment bid by this company is of the tube
or transitor and tube combination also the hand radios
are only 4 watt where as the bid specified 5 watts. If
this equipment was purchased their would be an additional
expenditure of about $1,000. necessary for test equip-
ment before the Dept. of Public Works could service our
radio equipment.
Motorola -This equipment is completely transitorized solid
state. This feature, according to the persons who
service radios, is more reliable, quicker to respond,
less prone to vibration, and it has less down time for
maintenance than a system which uses tubes. Also the
Department of Public Works has all of the necessary
test equipment to maintain this solid state system.
For the reasons mentioned above, it is recommended that
the bid be awarded to Motorola in the amount of $12,810.
and all other bids be rejected including the alternates.
This expenditure is under the appropriated amount
authorized in the 1973 Capital Equipment Budget.

REQUEST TO PURCHASE ORGAN
ADDISON-OAKS CONFERENCE CENTER
The Conference Center has proven to be a very popular
area to become married in, especially in the formal garden
attached to the center. Twenty-six weddings took place
there this past summer. The organ_th.at`has served these
weddings since we have been in operation has for all practical
purposes wore out. We have had service men out there to look
it over and they recommend that the best solution would be
to replace it. Taking this advice into consideration, it is
requested that the staff be authorized to receive quotes
for a new organ for the Addison -Oaks Conference Center for
an estimated expense of $2,000. This $2,000 would be
transferred from the contingency fund to the proper account.
ITEM #8e
REQUEST TO PURCHASE TRACK MAINTENANCE VEHICLE
The snowmobile trails at Addison -Oaks, which are in excess of
12 miles become very rough and dangerous when used. It was
requested by the park manager that we investigate methods of
grooming these trails in order to make snowmobiling at the
Addison -Oaks park a safe experience. Arnold Johnston,
Superintendent of Parks; Frank Ostrowski, Addison -Oaks Park
Manager; and Jon Kipke, Deputy Director investigated three
type of vehicles that could do this work. Taking all their
investigations into consideration it was recommended that the
Cushman Trackster be purchased by the Parks and Recreation
Commission for the purpose of grooming the snowmobiling trails
as well as its versatility for other year around projects that
it could be used for throughout the complete parks system. It
is recommended that it would not be to the advantage of the
Parks and Recreation Commission to bid this item but to transfer
$4,165 from the contingency fund to the proper park account and
acquire the Cushman Trackster from Anderson Vehicle Sales
Inc. This cost breakdown includes:

MILL POND PRELIMINARY MASTER PLAN
SPRINGFIELD-OAKS
The preliminary Master Plan for Springfield -Oaks has been
completed by Kent Smith of the Oakland County Planning
Commission and has also been reviewed by the Springfield
Township Parks and Recreation Commission and Planning
Commission, who accepted the concept with very enthusiastic
reactions. A list of the activities that are to be programmed
into this area are attached for your review and consideration.
Mr. Smith will be present to explain the plan to the
Commission. If this preliminary concept meets with Commission
approval, the Commission will then be requested to proceed
with application for funds from the Land and Water Conservation
Program to commence with the development of this area.
DAVISBURG MILL POND
SPRINGFIELD OAkS
SITE DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT
The Davisburg Mill Pond site, consisting of 6.9 acres, and essen-
tially open and flat in character, is conceived of here as a limited
activities facility. Because of site limitations and the presence of
water on three sides, the plan proposed is of a generally passive nature,
family -oriented, and providing an indoor activities center for both vil-
lage and township residents; not, of course,.Vxcluding the use therein
to county residents. At present, it is invisioned that the park will
be fenced off Davisburg Road and will have a gate control with no entry
booth.
The site plan and evaluation diagram indicates six basic functions
for the site, with a somewhat centrally located parking area. This pro-
vides convenient accessibility to all activity areas. The six basic ac-
tivity areas are as follows:
1. Community Building which will provide:
a. Meeting rooms
b. Concession area with kitchen
C. Lockers and showers
d. Rest room facilities
(This building would be serviced through the
north service door and loading area.)
2. Swimming and Beach Area which will provide:
a. Improved sand beach and sand bottom for
sunbathers and swimmers
b. Lifeguard tower for supervision
C. Buoy -marked swimming zone
d. Large sun -deck area off the west and south
ends of the Community Building
3. Passive Family Area which will provide:
a. Large grass area for family use
b. Bar-B-Q units
C. Picnic tables
d. Walkways
DAVISBURG MILL POND - SITE DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT
PAGE 2
e. Mounds, planting, etc.
f. Tot -lot play circle
4. Fishing Areas which will provide:
a. Boardwalk fishing piers (with railings) at
the south and east ends of the park, close
to the general family area
5. Play Area which will provide:
a. Sand play circle for adolescents and pre-
teens; slides, climbers, etc.
b. Open grass area for unstructured play activity
c. Mounds, screen planting, etc.
6. Boating Area which will ultimately provide:
a. Canoe livery building with canoe rental
b. Boardwalk deck area with railings and planting
C. Concrete launching ramp at north end for car -
topped, non -motorized boats (no facility for
storing boat trailers)
This is generally the design plan and prograin reflected in it for your
review and evaluation.

LETTER OF INTENT
INDEPENDENCE -OAKS PARK DEVELOPMENT
As the Commission is aware we are in the process of developing
the Master Plan for Independence -Oaks. As was stated the latter
part of last year we are anxious to get in the first phase of the
development of this park as soon as possible. In order to attain
this goal we must follow certain procedures. One of the first
procedures is to attempt to receive federal funds to help us
develop it, -as it will be a large project. The Master Plan
is not far enough along in order to have an application
submitted to the reviewing board for the first quarter of this
year. The next review date is June 1, 1973, so in order to be
on time for this review date it is requested that staff be
permitted to send a "letter of intent" declaring our intention
of applying for federal funds and then we will proceed to work
with the consultant on developing the application to be submitted
to the funding agency by May 20, 1973. In the meantime, the
preliminary Master Plan will have been presented to the Commission
for their approval and we should be prepared to proceed with the
first phase of development upon approval of any kind of application
that we have submitted. This procedure does not commit us to
expending any monies but only authorizes the staff to proceed with
the application. We will not be committed until we have approval
and the contract is signed by authorized persons of the Commission.
Your consideration in this request would be greatly appreciated.

Dear Mrs. Clark:

JOHN L. GRUBBA
ASSISTANT
You have requested an opinion of this office as to whether the
Chief Deputy Drain Commissioner may sit as a member of the Parks
and Recreation Commission in the place and stead of Daniel W.
Barry, the former Oakland County Drain Commissioner.
After reviewing the provisions of Act 261 of the Public Acts of
1965, as amended, and in particular, Section 1 thereof, it is the
opinion of this office that the statutory membership on the Parks
and Recreation Commission is exclusive to the person occupying the
office and as the duly qualified Oakland County Drain Commissioner.
Act 261 makes no provision for the attendance by a deputy drain
commissioner in the place and stead of the drain commissioner.
Further, a drain commissioner lacks any statutory authority to
designate a deputy to act in his place and stead as a member of
the parks and recreation commission.
Trusting the foregoing answers your inquiry, I am
Very truly yours,
