The intent of the reconsideration was to give the Parks and Recreation Commission the opportunity to acknowledge the attached conditions. They request that you amend the food and beverage contract with The Oaks to read that the Parks and Recreation Commission would abide by conditions imposed by the Township Trustees pertaining to alcoholic beverages being served at the Clubhouse. These conditions have been reviewed with the concessionaire, and the concessionaire agrees that he would have no problems in abiding by these conditions. It is staff's recommendation that the Parks and Recreation Commission amend the agreement with the concessionaire to include these conditions pertaining to the Springfield -Oaks Clubhouse. The Trustees are also requesting that the concessionaire reapply to the Liquor Control Commission for a .license to be issued at the Springfield -Oaks Clubhouse, requesting that the Parks and Recreation Commission be named the co -licensee, and that they request that the dance permit and the SDM (carryout license) not be included in the issuance of the license. If all of the above conditions are met by the Parks and Recreation Commission and the concessionaire, then the Township Trustees might consider transferring the license to the Springfield -Oaks Clubhouse. Collin Walls, Springfield Township Supervisor, is planning to attend our meeting to answer any questions. The concessionaire will also be present. HOLLY 634-3111 CLARKSTON 625.4802 650 BROADWAY • DAVISBURG, MI 48019 J. CALVIN WALTERS TOWNSHIP CLERK GLENN R. UNDERWOOD TRUSTEE COLLIN W. WALLS SUPERVISOR R. Eric Riekel Oakland County Parks & Recreation 2800 Watkins Lake Road Pontiac, MI 48053 Re: Resort Liquor License Transfer Springfield Oaks Club House Dear Eric; OFFICE HOURS DAILY: 9-5 PATRICIA L. KRAMER TOWNSHIP TREASURER GLEN J. VERMILYE TRUSTEE March 6, 1978 Wednesday evening, March 1, 1978, the Springfield Township Board voted to reconsider approval of the Resort Class C license transfer. IN THE EVENT petitioners resubmit their petition within 30 days, and attach to said petition evidence of the following: 1. That the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission is the licensee or co -licensee 2. That the petitioners have taken all available steps to cancel the S.D.M. and dance permit portions of this license. 3. That the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission have, by resolution and contract with the operating concessionaire, limited the use of the license as follows: a. Alcoholic beverages will not be sold except during golf season or at private parties and then only between the hours of 12 P.M. to 10 P.M. b. The club house will close no later than 11 P.M. each evening during golf season. C. No signs will be posted or advertising done which indicate that liquor is available at the Club House. d. No alcoholic beverages will be allowed anywhere except the upper level of the Club House. e. The S.D.M. and dance permit portions of this Resort license will be cancelled. This portion of the license will not be issued and therefore no carry out sales or dancing will be allowed. f. In the event the agreement between the Oaks Corporation and Oakland County Parks and Recreation is cancelled or not renewed, license shall revert to Oakland County Parks and Recreation for use only by concessionaires, controlled and approved by the Oakland County Parks and Recreation and liquor Control Commission. g. All alcoholic Beverages will be dispensed from a service bar located in the kitchen or some other private room. No sit down Bar will be installed. This will be an agenda item at our regular April 5th board meeting. As a point of clarification, please note that we did not approve the transfer as submitted. We voted to reconsider IF the above items are submitted to us as requested prior to our April meeting. My sincere thanks to you and your commission for allowing us to use the Youth Activities Center for our Public Hearing. It is obvious, we would not have been able to accomodate everyone in our Township Hall, I also want to thank you for the manner in which you made your presentation on behalf of Oakland County Parks and Recreation. The concise and business like manner in which you made your presentation, helped get us started on the right foot. Sincerely, Collin W. Walls ITEM #7 REPORT FROM THE Y.A.C. SUBCOMMITTEE The Subcommittee of the Parks and Recreation Commission appointed by the Parks and Recreation Commission to study the Youth Activities Center met eight times. The Subcommittee invited various people that had been connected with the Y.A.C. since its inception. Those attending at various times were: Ted Fuller and George Lekas, The Oaks; Daniel T. Murphy, County Executive; County Commissioner Richard Wilcox, Chairman, Planning & Building Committee; County Commissioner Lawrence Pernick; Tom Schneider and Georgina Cunningham, Cooperative Extension Services; Harvey Roge, Secretary, 4-H Fair Board; The Honorable Claude Trim, Michigan House of Representatives; Robert Gorsline, County Commissioner; Collin Walls, Supervisor, Springfield Township; and various Parks and Recreation Commission staff. A thorough discussion took place at all of these meetings, and through the results of this study the following recommendations are made: 1. Continue to staff the Activities Center with a Supervisor, with a salary range of $14,265 to $17,140. That is a savings of $5,000. 2. Recommend to the County Commissioners that the name be changed from the Youth/Activities Center to Springfield -Oaks Activities Center. 3. Continue booking the facility year round. 4. Continue to work closely with 4-H. 5. Supervisor of Activities Center to program the facility as well as promote the facility to prospective users; such as Veteran Motor Car Club of America, Antique Shows, etc. 6. Make capital improvements that are necessary for the proper day-to- day use of the facility, especially dealing with 4-H. 7. Recommend to the County Executive and the County Commissioners that an architectural study be conducted to analyze the need for any improvements that could make the facility more functional, as well as to come up with a recommendation for an improvement of the sanitary system. County financial support will be necessary to implement this recommendation. 8. Recommend to the County Executive and the County Commissioners that they consider creating a fair board with consideration of implementing a county fair. 9. To acquire the south 80 acres of the present Y.A.C. grounds. In conclusion, it should be noted that the above recommendations do not indicate any promise of a reduction in the operational overhead of this facility, and there will be no appreciable savings in so doing. It should be stated that the results of the study indicate that the facility should be operated and programmed intelligently; and that wherever savings can be implemented or revenue generated, it is incumbent on the staff of the Parks and Recreation Commission to take advantage of that opportunity. But to consider closing the facility down or turn it into a turnkey operation would be regressive, and it will be to no advantage to the Oakland County officials or the citizenry they represent. 7 - 2 ITEM #8 MICHIGAN MOTOR VEHICLE CODE I have met with Bob Allen, Corporation Counsel, and he feels that now the Parks and Recreation Commission has adopted the Michigan Motor Vehicle Code, there are certain steps to be taken in order to make it legal. He is requesting that the Commission make a motion to amend the Parks Rules and Regulations revised May 13, 1977, as follows: Move to amend Parks Rules and Regulations enacted February 8, 1966, revised May 13, 1977, Section 15 -- Motor -driven Vehicles, by adding paragraph E: Violate provisions of the Motor Vehicle Code Act #300, Public Acts of 1949, Revised 1973, as amended, which Act is hereby adopted in its entirety and made a part and incorporated herein by reference. After this action is taken, we must advertise for two consecutive weeks in a newspaper declaring that the Parks and Recreation Commission has amended its Parks Rules and Regulations in Section 15, Paragraph E. Your action on the above would be greatly appreciated.
