The program would consist of an evening club launch from a designated park on

bringing special attention to the parks system.
For this limited activity, staff requested free park entry for the balloonists
and their crews, plus free entry to those visitors wishing to view the launches.
Staff will contact Risk Management to ensure the Parks System is covered for
liability for these launches.

codes; the Parks Commission will be responsible for the exterior work and Oak
Management will be responsible for the interior.

work around functions; the Commission suggested negotiating with Oak Management

PRELIMINARY FINANCIAL STATEMENT
Year Ending December 31, 1990
(As of 2/2/91)
The preceding December Statement of Operations is also a pre-
liminary combined statement of Parks operations for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 1990.
Our independent auditor, Janz and Knight, has tentatively in-
dicated that revenues exceeded projected revenue for 1990 by
$358,398.18. Further, they indicated operating expenses were under
projected expenditures by $415,607.37.
Consequently, upon submission of the final audit report due
at the end of March, it is anticipated a total of $774,005.55 will
be available to be transferred into the 1991 Capital Improvement
Budget. This is $377,160.55 higher than originally projected in
the Proposed 1991 Capital Improvement Budget.
This report is for informational purposes only. Commission
approval will be requested in April after the final audit report
is received.

an adopted recreation plan with identified projects must be on file with
the Department of Natural Resources. This plan must be updated every
five years. Amendments to the adopted plans are permitted to provide
for new or unforeseen projects within the five-year limitation.
The "Addison Oaks Sanitary System Improvement" was only identified
and designated as a need in 1989-90; therefore, not included in the 1986
submission.
In order to submit a grant for the "Addison Oaks Sanitary Sewer Improvement,"
the 1986 Master Plan must be amended to include this project as follows:
Section 2 - Resolution
Section 3 - 5 Year Action Plan
(Grant & Capital Improvement Project Portion)
Section 4 - Goals & Objectives
Section 8 - Recreation Deficiencies
An explanation of changes within each section will be presented at
the public hearing on March 6.

1991 RECREATION GRANT APPLICATION
Oakland County Parks and Recreation has been informed that applications
may be submitted to the Department of Natural Resources by April 1, 1991
for the following categories of grants:
- Land and Water Conservation (L&W)
- Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund (MNRTF)
- Recreation Bond
Staff recommends the following three grants be submitted to the Department
of Natural Resources:
Addison Oaks - Sanitary System Improvements
The present sanitary lagoon system at Addison Oaks must be renovated
to meet new state regulations and for future expansion.
The proposed project involves renovation of the lagoons including
new liners, new seepage beds, and an effluent irrigation system. A 3,300
ft. sewer line connection, including two lift stations from the existing
campgrounds to the lagoons, has also been included due to soil conditions,
problems experienced by the present septic system, and discussion with
the Department of Natural Resources. This connection would also allow
for expansion of camping in this area.
The estimated cost for this project is $294,000. The grant is a
25/75 match, with $74,000 from Parks and Recreation and $220,000 from
Recreation Bond.
8-1
Lyon Rookery
This grant is for the acquisition of 272.16 acres of land adjacent
to the proposed 471 acres containing the major portion of the Heron Rookery.
This land (272.16 acres) was included in the original grant, but due to
increased land values since the grant was submitted, the present funds
may not be sufficient to obtain the total 768 acres as intended.
The grant request is for $1,250,000 based on the original 33/67 match,
$412,500 from Parks and Recreation and $837,500 from Michigan Natural
Resource Trust Fund.
Rose Township Acquisition
This grant request is for the acquisition of 612.67 acres of land
in the central west portion of Oakland County. This property would preserve
open space and provide new recreational opportunities for the population
of this section of the county.
The proposed request is for $1,085,000 which includes acquisition,
relocation and miscellaneous expenses. The grant is a 30/70 match with
$325,000 Parks from and Recreation and from $759,500 MNRTF. This is a
dual grant which also provides for land and water funds. Therefore a
50/50 match, not to exceed $250,000 (which is criteria for land and water
funds), is also being applied with $835,000 from Parks and Recreation.
A presentation and further information will be presented by staff
at the required public hearing on March 6 at 9 a.m.

the compaction in-depth up to ten inches on greens and tees.
For the past three years we have rented a machine like this; however,
the company that leases these machines insists they supply the tractor
and operator at a cost of $1,000 per day.
Staff recommends you award the bid to the low bidder, Lawn Equipment,
for the (Verti Drain) aerator for $12,350.00.
There is $9,000.00 in the 1991 Operating Equipment Budget for this
aerator. The remaining $3,350.00 is available from the Operating Equip-
ment Budget Surplus.

Americans have been relentlessly ca-
joled and bullied to get off their col-
lective duffs and get some exercise. Yet
more than 90 percent of the public re-
mains terminally torpid. Maybe they in-
stinctively know what every coach and
athlete has learned the hard way: Exer-
cise regimens are no fun.
They are not supposed to be fun. Ex-
ercise is a means to an end. You exercise
to whip yourself into that sweaty state of
grace called fitness. Studies show that a
tiny percentage of fitness freaks actually
enjoy this, but most flab fighters dutiful-
ly swallow the biomechanical equivalent
of castor oil because it is good for them,
even if it hurts or bores them silly.

STAIR CLIMBING:
Stepping your way to
fitness is the latest in
aerobics
Now it turns out that fun and fitness
needn't be polar opposites. In fact, says
exercise physiologist Bryant Stamford,
you can boost your health by playing
sports with friends and family instead of
locking yourself in a gym. Stamford, co-
author of Fitness Without Exercise
(Warner, 1990, $18.95), emphasizes "be-
ing physically active, which is not the
same as slavishly sticking to a formal-
ized fitness program."
Rather than set unrealistic exercise
goals, says Stamford, adults should try
to burn at least 2,000 calories a week in
daily activities, including walking, gar-
dening, housework and sports. That may
take some planning. A 130-pound wom-
an can burn 338 calories an hour playing
badminton, 286 playing volleyball, 338
while skating and 234 playing doubles
tennis. Of course, getting the full benefit
from such daily activities requires eating
a low -fat diet and avoiding cigarettes
and excessive alcohol. For a complete
fitness prescription, the American Col-
lege of Sports Medicine also recom-
mends adding two weekly 15-to-30-min-
ute sessions of weight training or
calisthenics. These help maintain upper-

SWIM RAFT
Groveland Oaks
Park staff is recommending the replacement of the swim raft
for the Groveland Oaks beach area. The existing swim raft purchased
in 1979 has been rebuilt/resurfaced on several occasions; the current
condition of the swim raft has degraded.
The original purchase cost was $3,092.

ladders. The Superdeck dock system is currently in service at the
boat rental facility and there is a small dock for the emergency
watercraft at the beach. Staff is satisfied with the performance

UTILITY VEHICLE
WATERFORD OAKS
Bids were requested for the purchase of a Smithco truckster as
a replacement vehicle for an EZ-Go truckster, which is 12 years old.
This vehicle is used in the overall cleanup and maintenance of
the park with special use at the BMX track and facility.
It has 4-wheel drive and a two -section chassis which can flex in
any direction. This is desired for use on the steep and uneven terrain
of the race track. It can also carry 1,500 pounds in its dump box.
This feature is for hauling material to top dress and groom the dirt
track surface.
A demo unit was made available last summer for staff to evaluate.
The results were very positive, and staff recommends the purchase of
this vehicle from Lawn Equipment for $10,645. This is a limited source
item, with Lawn Equipment being the only dealer in our region.
It is felt this vehicle should last eight (8) or more years.
The old EZ-Go will be placed in the County auction.
There is $9,500 in the Operating Equipment Budget for this pur-
chase; the balance of $1,145 is available in the Operating Equipment
Surplus.

A 4-wheel all hydraulic drive,
articulated utility vehicle for heavy
loads and rough going. Haul up to
1500 pounds in your choice of three beds:
a deep cargo dumpbox, a rugged gondola
box , or a versatile flatbed with stake
sides. The Smithco Bandit is designed to
go — and keep going — over almost any
terrain. Its two -section steel chassis is
articulated to flex in any direction, for easy
movement over obstacles and rough
ground. The heavily treaded, low-pressure
tires are driven by a hydraulic pump and
two hydraulic axles for smooth, steady
power and unstoppable 4-wheel drive trac-
tion. And the Bandit comes standard with a
durable 23 hp Kohler engine that provides
plenty of torque for almost any job,
from heavy hauling to plowing snow. The
driver's section is made of tough, molded
fiberglass with a comfortable bench seat.
And his job is made easier with hydraulic
power steering and a 15" steering wheel.
Ask your Smithco distributor for a
demonstration and all the details.

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
I have enclosed herewith a copy of the resignation
letter of Cheryl Flynn which I received this morning.
Cheryl did inform me at the end of last week of her
decision, which she indicated was based primarly on the
need for her time to be spent with her husband's
manufacture's representative business.
obviously, this means that the Executive Committee
will now have to go through the process again of selecting
an Executive Director. We will report pertinent details as
they occur. In the meantime, if any of you have any
thoughts on suitable people for this position, please let
me know.

Subject: Utility Charges at Red Oaks Waterpark
February 22, 1991
In 1989 staff noticed a large discrepancy in the utility charges
at Red Oaks and Waterford Oaks Waterpark facilities. Specifically,
the utility costs at Waterford were $55,936 in 1989 as opposed to
$14,545 at Red Oaks. Further investigation of this matter and subsequent
discussion with Detroit Edison determined that one of the two electrical
meters at Red Oaks Waterpark had never been read (during four years
of operation).
Staff was informed by Detroit Edison that the kilowatt-hours utilized
and not charged for to this date approximated 1.5 million. In negotiating
payment with Detroit Edison, the following charges and payment schedule
was agreed to:
Red Oaks Waterpark will be charged 9(� per kilowatt-hour and
the monthly service charge amounting to approximately
$150,000. The park will not be charged a late fee or interest.
The park will pay the charges to Detroit Edison on a monthly
basis to be spread out over a three year period.
