TO: Parks and Recreation Commission
FROM: R. Eric Reickel
SUBJECT: Park Development Progress Report 73-7
This is a continuing report of the development activity of our
park system.
I. Springfield -Oaks
A. Youth Activities Center
1. Parking lot lights are completed.
2. Dumping station specifications are complete.
Awaiting estimates for construction.
B. Clubhouse
Exterior lighting is under construction.
Light poles are installed. Still waiting
for light fixtures. Very slow project.
C. Golf Course (Back nine)
1. The development is progressing beautifully.
Five greens are ready to be surveyed for final
design. It is expected that the other four
will be ready shortly.
2. Pond #1 could not be mucked out with front
loaders and earth moving equipment because
this type of equipment is limited to 3-32'
of muck with a stable bottom. The soil borings
were off and conditions necessitated a change
in design but no appreciable change in cost
to the overall contract.
II. Groveland-Oaks
A. Park Office - 3/4 complete.
B. Toilet Buildings - 3/4 complete.
C. Entrance Landscaping
Materials are on order. Some of the project is to
be done this fall and remainder in the spring.

ITEM #7
ADDISON-OAKS CONFERENCE CENTER
STEAM BOILER
This office received an inspection report on September 19,
1973 from the Home Insurance Company for the steam boiler
that heats the Addison -Oaks Conference Center.
The result of this inspection was that the internal surfaces
of the boiler were corroded and scaled and the water treat-
ment should be revised or a competent water treatment concern
be consulted to establish a water treatment program in order
to correct this condition.
Upon receipt of this report, the firm of R. A. Grandell
Heating Company, Inc., was directed to bring the steam boiler
within the recommendations of the inspector. Estimated cost
of this project was not requested and Grandell Heating
Company proceeded with the work. The project was coordinated
by Mr. Johnston, Superintendent of Parks.
It was determined by D.F.O. and Commission Staff that the
work was found in order and the boiler is in good operating
condition.
A total balance of $3818.69 was submitted to this office on
November 14, 1973 for payment. Realizing that this bill is
beyond the limits for department authorization, Commission
permission is requested to process payment as soon as possible.
ITEM # 8
WATERFORD-OAKS POOL
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES-ANDERSON/LESNIAK AND ASSOCIATES
The pending Agreement between Anderson/Lesniak and
Associates, Incorporated and the Parks and Recreation
Commission for the purpose of providing professional
services for the detailed design of the landscape and
other site improvements for the indoor pool and entry
road has been reviewed by the Corporation Counsel and
approved as to form.
It is recommended that the Commission authorize the
Chairperson to sign the Agreement.
ITEM #9
WATERFORD-OAKS POOL
GROUND BREAKING
A meeting was held between your Director and Joseph Joachim
of Swanson Associates to discuss the schedule for the ground
breaking of the Waterford -Oaks pool. Swanson Associates has
hired, at their expense, the public relations firm of Drew & Drew
of Madison Heights to help them with this project.
The most appropriate date, upon review, was Monday, January 14,
1974 at 11:00 A.M. The following questions must be answered
as to what extent this ground breaking should be carried out:
1. Just the ground breaking ceremonies or luncheon
cocktails to follow at Waterford -Oaks?
2. List of Invitees?

Board of Commissioners
Board of Auditors

ITEM #10
PROGRESS - FOOD AND BEVERAGE
In order to properly prepare a prospectus in an attempt to
acquire a good concessionaire for food and beverage, a certain
amount of material has to be compiled. We have been in the
process of compiling all the fiscal experience that we have
had with these operations as well as to draw up descriptions
of the activity that is conducted at each one and the equipment
that is available.
We are now in the process of working with Stoppert's Appraisal
Service to obtain information as to the value of the building
rental of White Lake -Oaks and Springfield -Oaks Clubhouses as
well as Addison -Oaks Conference Center. This will be important
as a negotiating item when the Commission determines who the
concessionaire will be.
After studying the various approaches to obtaining a con-
cessionaire, it is recommended that we advertise locally and
in the food and beverage newspaper as well as by personal
invitation, that the Commission is interested in obtaining a
concessionaire to operate the above facilities.
It does not seem necessary to develop an extensive document
explaining everything the Commission wants as I think this
would be more important in the final negotiating sessions.
The important thing is to come up with a series of candidates
that can be screened via experience and the strengths of their
proposals.
Page 2 (Progress -Food & Beverage)
If this recommendation meets with Commission approval, we
should be able to advertise immediately. We then will be
able to proceed with our interviewing sessions right after
the first of the year.
