ITEM #7a
PARK OFFICE
GROVELAND-OAKS
It was determined after study and recommendation of the Parks
and Recreation Commission that the park office and toilet
facilities will be built by force account this fall. The cost
for building the facilities by force account and using a
different design, rather than a pre -fabricated cedar house,
would be a substantial savings.
Mr. Young is still costing out the details but it has been
determined that we definitely will receive a financial advantage
going this way.
ITEM #7b
DROP OFF
SPRINGFIELD-OAKS
YOUTH ACTIVITIES CENTER
The Department of Facilities and Operations has finished the
engineering for the pedestrian drop off at the Youth Activities
Center. The estimated cost for this improvement would be between
$13,000 and $20,000.
It is my recommendation that this improvement be referred to the
Board of Commissioners for their capital program.
The Parks and Recreation Commission has seen fit to expend
approximately $38,000 this year for improvements that were felt
necessary to the operation of this facility. It is felt that we
cannot justify this additional capital expenditure this year.
Permission is requested to go to the Buildings and Grounds Committee
and explain what we have done and what is needed out there.
One of the strong recommendations is that we consider hiring
someone to do a master plan for this fairgrounds. There seems to be
a movement gaining force in reference to putting horse barns on this
area and if we are to have a good fairgrounds, that is to be functional
for all purposes, a true study of this area should be made.
ITEM #7c
LEONARD PROPERTY
WATERFORD-OAKS
A meeting was held with Mrs. Leonard's attorney, Mr. Al Ingle. It
seems as though Mrs. Leonard is interested in selling her property
but was not too pleased with our offer. I stated to her attorney
that it was our feelings that the $70,000 she originally asked was
inflationary and that she should not let that figure bias her in
reference to our offer.
After extensive discussion, Mr. Ingle made it clear that Mrs.
Leonard would like to sell but would like to also stay on the site
until we had the need for her home. I felt that was fair as long as
they could come up with a decent asking price.
Mr. Ingle informed me that he would feel a fair offer would be half
way between the two appraisals received which were $49,200 and $53,000.
An offer of $51,700 plus the opportunity to live there for about
three (3) years rent free, is how he will present this to Mrs. Leonard.
If she finds this satisfactory I will probably recommend this to you at
our Friday meeting.
I think this acquisition is very important and especially now after
discussing this with the architects. They feel that the high ground
in front of Mrs. Leonard's house would make a much better entrance
because there would be no need for excavation or refill for a solid
base which also would save us money in the long run.
I will have more details on this at our meeting Friday.
