OAKLAND COUNTY PARKS & _RECREATION COMMISSION yo..J 2800 Watkins Lake Road • Waterford, Michigan 48328 (313) 858-0906 • Fax (313) 858-1683 Ralph A. Richard Manager Jon J. Kipke Assistant Manager April 15, 1993 Pecky D. Lewis, Jr. Chairman Jean M.Fox Vice Chairman Richard D. Kuhn, Jr. Secretary Fred Korzon George W. Kuhn TO: Members of the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission Thomas A. Law Rudy D. Lozano FROM: Ralph Richard, Manager John E. Olsen Roy Rewold IN RE: Commission/Staff Retreat - Items for Preview Richard5karritt Enclosed are a number of separate items the Commission will want to preview prior to the Commission/Staff Retreat scheduled for April 22 - 24. First is the schedule of events, which also includes the agenda of topics to be discussed and meal functions. The rest of the items are arranged in the order they appear on the agenda. 1. Brainstorming - Ralph Richard As you know, over the years a lot of ideas have come and gone before the Commission. With the possibility of purchasing a farm in the future, putting together a resource management plan, strengthening our recreation programming and events, we would like to generate some general discussion of topics on areas that the staff and Commission should look toward in the future. Example: With the acquisition of Rose Township, do we hold it for awhile and consider purchasing another large parcel of land for future park? Nature Center Future Role of Lobbyist in the Future Attached are some informational sheets about trends from the National Parks and Recreation Association plus the mission statement for the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission for your review. (Attachments 1 and 2) 2. Park Review - Master Plan - Joe Figa As you know, Orion Oaks has been pretty much in a hold position since the millage vote, even though we have opened it up to day use. We would like to review the plan, review where we are, and the activities on the site today, and look at what might happen in the future. The same would be for Lyon Oaks. Also, I would like to bring you up to date on the meeting with Rose Township and proposed use for the facility there. 3. Funding - Frank Trionfi Enclosed you will find some funding information on the future of our parks system for the next ten years. This is done without any increase in any of our millage rates. Frank will explain the State Equalized Value status and what it means to our department, plus any proposals that possibly get on the ballot and how they affect the parks system. This issue may be the highlight of the retreat, as I believe it may provide clear direction for both long-term financial planning, as well as decisions to be made for the 1994 budget. (Attachment 3) 4. Golf - Mike Thibodeau A. Golf course fee comparison on local Oakland County courses. (Attachment 4) Also to be presented is a study of who uses our courses in regards to residents/non-residents and where the play takes place for your review. Further explanation of this will take place that day. (Attachment 5) B. Addison Oaks new golf course. As discussed in our capital improve- ment program, the idea of funding a new course in the system will be discussed, with the first location being Addison Oaks for a number of reasons to be presented at the retreat. Also ideas on sources of funding will be discussed. C. Glen Oaks. Over the years, through our capital improvement program, we also discussed the building addition at Glen Oaks. Tentative plans will be presented, along with possible ways of funding this endeavor. (Attachment 6) D. Groveland Oaks golf. Discuss with the possibility of looking at a lease -out agreement for this facility. 5. Recreation Review - Sue Wells A general presentation will be made about what we are doing in the area of recreation and the direction of the recreation section for the future. (Attachment 7) 6. Future Park System Image - Jan Pung One of the hardest things that we've had to deal with in Oakland County Parks is our own identification. Jan's staff, working together with DDB Needham, has come up with a concept of how to better identify the Oakland County Parks System. Jan will make a presentation on how this might proceed. 7. State Legislators Meeting - Pecky Lewis, Jr. This was done back in 1985, where we invited state legislators, along with county commissioners, to a general overall meeting, letting them know the goals and future direction for the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission, asked for their consideration, and offered to help in any way we can. This to be discussed, a possible date, and when we want to hold such a meeting. S. Vehicle Fleet - Ralph Richard As you are aware, the item of the vehicle fleet was tabled. We also have included in this area the information of Public Act 261 regarding what role the Parks Commission, Board of Commissioners, and County Executive have in the Parks and Recreation Commission. We're looking for general discussion and update on this topic. 9. Energy Study - Frank Trionfi As time allows, staff will review a program to have a company research our utility bills to find if we are paying the lowest possible rate. This is a payback proposal, and we feel we county only benefit from this. Frank will detail this information. (Attachment 8) The intent of this retreat is not to overwhelm you with paper, but to have some good dialogue for the direction of the park system for the next five years.

The study, The Benefits of Local Recreation and Park Services: A Nationwide Study of the Perceptions of The American Public, was conducted for the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) by Dr. Geoffrey Godbey and Dr. Alan Graefe of The Pennsyl- vania State University and funded by the National Recreation Foundation. "The findings are very important," said R. Dean Tice, National Recreation and Park Association Executive Director, "The public actively participates in our programs, be- lieves in the value of the service they are receiving, and is willing to support tax dollars and user fees to continue receiving such service. "In addition, it is clear that park users are healthier than non -park users, indicating that public recreation can contribute to reduc- ing our nation's ever increasing health bill," continued Tice. "Furthermore, when 71% of non -users say they received benefits from park and recreation areas, it is clear that there is a deep-seated belief that parks and recre- ation is a necessary and fundamental part of any community." Other findings include: One out of five Americans reported taking up a new recreation activity during the last year. The likelihood of taking up a new leisure activity was statistically related to age, residence type, marital status, education level, income level, race, and political affiliation. The study consisted of a telephone inter- view of a nationally representative sample of 1,300 individuals age 15 or older. All inter- views were completed between January and February, 1992. In addition, a follow-up questionnaire was sent to each respondent to examine the individual's state of health, wellness and life satisfaction and the relationship to use of local park and recreation services.

However, at times it is necessary to evaluate existing properties so as to maintain their charm. It is with great anticipation and excitement that we at Oak Management are once again addressing the further enhancement of one of Oakland County's premier facilities. As in the past, Oak Management is prepared to assist in the ongoing effort to meet the expectations of the Parks Commission and the community that we serve. The proposal as set forth would not only augment the existing structure with needed redecoration, but also allow for the expansion of the banquet facilities to properly meet the demand of the area. As with prior projects (Addison Oaks Conference Center) the need for expanded facilities must be met with care to preserve the delicate balance of elegance and marketability. We are sure that you share the same enthusiasm that we do in knowing that this project will bring to the Oakland County Parks system a facility that all of the community can truly be proud of.

Specifically, this program will analyze and audit current utility bills for possible refunds and to obtain the lowest rates and terms on all electricity, gas, water, sewage, oil (petroleum products) and telecommunications (voice and data) to assist the Parks and Recreation staff in their continuing effort to reduce utility costs. Purchasing received the following bids: FIRM William Agbourche & Co. Oak Park, MI National Utility Service, Inc. Park Ridge, NJ FEES *audit of utility bills @ $55.00/hour *technical study @ $85.00/hour (approx. 200 hours) for $17,000 *65% of all refunds and credits obtained *one time service fee of $12,000 for the duration of five years for all work (audits, etc) performed. *50% of all refunds and credits obtained for a period not to exceed 5 years. Staff recommends the contract be awarded to the low bidder, National Utility Service. This company currently is servicing 27,000 clients, including over one-half of the Fortune 500 companies. Their data base consists of approximately 98% of all available utility rates, riders, tariffs and special amendments available within the United states. They monitor in excess of 3.5 million invoices covering 750,000 locations. The National Utility Service representative in the Michigan area has agreed to allow the Parks and Recreation Commission to recapture its $12,000 service fee before collecting its 50% performance fee. In addition, the Commission will be able to recapture any capital outlay costs prior to the collection of any performance fee. Staff will be available to discuss this matter in more detail at the meeting.
