Bills List Review – The board discussed different things on the bills list.  Deb asked about a cost.  Tim said  it was for a wooden bridge falling over and the city had several people voice concern.  Tim said there  was a company doing other work, and they were willing to make the repairs for a reduced price at  Bridge Park.    The board discussed different programs that the Parks and Recreation offer and what revenues they  bring in.  The board discussed the budget and how much money is left in the year.  The board discussed  that recreation is actually not to make money, but to offer programs.  Tim said recreation just has to  stay within the budget.      Budget Report – October 2013 – Informational purpose.  Budget Report – October 2014 – Informational purpose.  Budget Report – November 2013 – Informational purpose.   Budget Report – November 2014 – Informational purpose.     Old Business:    DRAFT Page 2 of 4  Bridge Park – Tim said a couple months ago we brought this issue to the city attorney for adult softball.   Tim said the city attorney said that only allowing certain people at the park, would be discriminating  against different groups and it needs to be more general, not adults only.    Amy said she doesn’t understand why the city can’t say it is for adults only.  Tim said it can be a certain  day and time, but it has to be available to anyone and not adult softball.  Tim said there can be times like  if we say Tuesday and Thursday between 6‐10.  Tim said the board can discuss it and bring this back to  city council.  Amy said the issue is the city losing leagues to other communities.    Shay asked Oswego if they had increased security or anything at their field with use of alcohol. Oswego  said no.  Shay said Oswego is going to begin selling alcohol in a couple years because they have not seen  any negative effect from it and no issues.  Shay said this has been our discussion, if there will be any  problems.  Amy said can we present this as a trial/test period things to see if things go well.    Matt asked if there is a lot of opposition to having alcohol.  Tim said the police have no issue with it.   Amy said there was a problem with the city selling it.  Deb said the board said no to selling alcohol.  Matt  said most softball leagues ‐ that is what they do.  Oswego allows alcohol anywhere.  Matt suggested that  Yorkville look at Oswego policy.    Ken said the American Legion serves alcohol. They have issues there with trunk drinking while the boys  are playing the game and the parents go out to the trunks and drink.  Ken said the bartender at the  Legion told us that the trunk drinking has to stop.  Amy said this would be a seasonal thing.  Tim said  yes.      Ken said the Riverfront functions allow alcohol.  Tim said those are events with staff in attendance.  Deb  said we are getting forced into this because of Oswego allowing it. Amy said that people would like to  have a beer and not be in trouble.  Ken said they are doing it anyway like the trunk drinking.  Tim said  we just have to keep any eye on it.  Shay said there are always reasons why people go to certain leagues.      Shay said the city is trying to find ways to make our leagues attractive to people.  The board discussed  Oswego and them having no issues with drinking at games.  Amy said she thinks it should be presented  to the city council and go in with the pros and cons.  Dan said that his stepson plays in a league and they  do it anyway.  Dan said we should give it a chance and see.      Shay said it will be outside of the dugouts and it will be part of the league rules.  Deb said there needs to  be rules so it is not a free for all.   Deb suggested to ask city council if it should be allowed at all the parks  not just softball.  Tim said it could lead to that if things go well.     Motion to allow alcohol at Bridge Park for Softball with no alcohol in the dugout or on the field Dan Lane  motioned and Matt Konecki seconded.  Deb – yes; Amy – yes; Mark – yes; Dan – yes; Matt – yes. Motion  passed.      New Business:

in January.  Motion and second to move Park Board Meetings to the second Thursday of the month at  6:30 p.m.  Motion made by Mark Dilday and seconded by Amy Cesich.  Deb – yes; Amy – yes; Mark –  yes; Dan‐ yes; Matt – yes.    131 Hydraulic Unit C RFP Results – Tim said there was three proposals to rent the building.  Tim said this  can be a discussion tonight and decision can be made later, if needed.  Dan thinks that they should  attend and make a presentation, so that we can ask questions.  Dan wants to table this until the people  can come in to meet with them in person.      Deb said if this is important to them, they need to attend.  Tim said he will have them attend the  January meeting.  Ken said Upper Crust caters into Oswego and other places.  Ken said he did not realize  you cannot go there for a single family it has to be 10‐12 people minimum.  The board discussed the  Upper Crust business and how he runs things.  Dan said he does a great job.    Deb said she has an issue with negotiating the rents, so they need to be in attendance to discuss that.   The board discussed the rent being the same amount and it is not up for negotiation.  Tim said that is up  to the board to decide.  Dan said if you want to rent an apartment, there is not negotiation.  Tim said  once the board picks a tenant, there will be a contract drawn up.     Tim said the board can decide what they want to do with the rent.   Tim said they might want to talk  about the percentages.  Tim said he will contact them and have them attend the next meeting to discuss  these things.      Robyn Sutcliff said she had a non‐compete clause that she could not sell anything that another business

More than once I called the day of a game and was told the fields were playable, but when we arrived, the fields were soaked and not playable.

Many children and seniors enjoy these ponds, yet they seem a very low priority and take a back seat to all the stuff you listed above. The ponds need to be deeper so they will support fish life during a hard winter like we just had. i believe the city has a max depth of six feet for it's retention ponds. This is silly. That depth will almost guarantee a fish kill during harsh winters, and if we are doing it for safety reasons, a person can drown in six feet of water just as easily as 15 feet. We should look at what plainfield has done. most of their pons are full of fish and very well maintained. 9/4/2014 2:14 PM 33 Dog park is a must 9/3/2014 6:14 PM 34 No use for them 9/3/2014 4:34 PM 35 Don't use my tax dollars 9/3/2014 4:32 PM 36 Bathrooms at the park is extremely important 8/8/2014 6:00 PM 17 / 92 Yorkville Parks and Recreation Survey 2014 SurveyMonkey 7.82%19 3.70%9 5.76%14 17.28%42 7.41%18 58.02%141 Q5 In the past 12 months, how often have you or anyone in your household used or participated in any Recreation classes, programs, or athletic events?

When they do offer a program, it is far over priced in comparison to other communities.

There is high interest in volleyball here. All the girls who don't make the 20 cut at YMS have no where to go. There was 80-100 girls trying out and only 20 make it. If there was a recreational league here, it would be full. There's no guy teams offered either and a lot of boys would like to do it also. A sand volleyball court for summer would be great.

Hometown days I believe suffered because of this. 11/10/2014 1:16 PM 6 Don't like when music under the stars prevents us from bringing own beverages and having to buy from company that is also supplying music.

I don't go to hometown days, because I don't want to stand up all night and listen to music. There needs to be seating. Also, more to do during the day would be nice. The Holiday under the stars is TOO EARLY! It needs to be closer to Christmas and more of a Winter type festival. I cann't make myself care about Christmas in November. 9/29/2014 4:35 PM 16 I didn't hear about many of them until last minute 9/29/2014 9:54 AM 17 Music too loud, could not hear to talk to friends 9/28/2014 8:01 PM 18 I didn't know there were outdoor movies or we would go 9/23/2014 1:55 PM 19 Halloween Egg Hunt - youngest children go first.

In the park, there were times I could not carry a conversation due to the volume of the carnival and bands. Also, some of the broadcast music from the carnival had filty language and messages - not in good taste for a "family Event"/. 9/13/2014 4:38 PM 23 Could use more Music Under Stars nights 9/7/2014 10:18 PM 24 Sorry.

I'm certainly no "tree hugger" but Earth Day in the spring could be used to have a city wide "pick up the town" event after the winter. In the fall (November) help sponsor and be a part of the national Recycle America to help educate how/what to recycle, make a collection site for the difficult items (electronics, paint, hazardous materials, etc. ).

I can go to either pool in Aurora and only pay $9 plus they have discounted rates on certain days. I can take my kids on my day off and spend less than $20 for 3 of us. Please think about opening a public pool. Also why are there not any petting zoos or facilities like Phillips Park or Blackberry Farm. They offer so much family fun for little to no cost. It would be nice if Yorkville would link up with Fox Valley like other communities have or get more programs and family oriented places. 11/20/2014 10:36 PM 7 dog parks we desperatley need one in town 11/18/2014 3:41 PM 8 Nothing particular 11/15/2014 3:19 PM 9 Gymnastics and swimming 11/13/2014 10:19 AM 10 The Oswegoland Park District is better than the Yorkville Parks and Rec Department because the local nut jobs like Mark Johnson, the Burks and creepy Tom Gilmore haven't attacked the system there yet. 11/10/2014 1:31 PM 11 Red Oak Nature Center, Lippold Park in Fox Valley.

Tweens need something to do also who aren't in school sports. Recreational leagues in volleyball is my suggestion. Also, if Jaycee pond could be maintained in the winter to use as a park district outdoor rink, that would be an asset. Benches would have to be added and maybe a stone firepit to warm up. Bike paths are essential for connecting the south end to the center to the north end of town. It would be the safest way to walk or ride a bike around town, along with the greenest! 9/30/2014 11:03 AM 31 Volleyball 9/29/2014 5:23 PM 32 *Private piano lessons and swimming lessons. *walk-in exercise/yoga classes Either you don't offer them or they are much more reasonable in price. 9/29/2014 4:37 PM 33 Indoor pool/water exercise classes 9/29/2014 2:26 PM 34 Senior services, health lectures, insurance aids, home delivery meals, inexpensive noon lunches.9/29/2014 10:09 AM 35 Dance, gymnastics 9/29/2014 9:05 AM 36 Grandchildren played sports there 9/28/2014 8:04 PM 37 Timing of events worked out.9/28/2014 7:41 PM 38 We took a lot of summer classes through Oswegoland PD, such as dance, gymnastics, two-riffic tumblers, soccer, and a class called books and cooks. 9/28/2014 5:40 PM 39 My family lives in Oswego and they are my care givers in order to allow me to attend.9/28/2014 4:38 PM 40 NOT ENOUGH EVENING AND WEEKEND CLASSES FOR YOUNG CHILDREN.

Clyde Howell had this event every June and know that he has passed away no one has had the event, Chief Hart knows about this program. 9/7/2014 7:12 PM 64 The skate board element in Autumn Creek is not really conductive towards many skateboard tricks. Yes, the handrails are good elements but those are geared towards very experienced riders. Any experienced rider would quickly become bored and leave. It also has signs of lack of use (rock debris on the surface). If it was used a great deal the users themselves would be cleaning it up. Also due to lack of use left it open for vandals to come in and "tag" it, knowing probably that no one would be in that area. I do like the skate elements that Grand Reserve did for it's residents. The elements are unique and the transitions not as unusable as autumn creeks. The only thing missing for their park would be a nice mini half pipe, or smooth shallow concrete bowl to advance skills. 9/7/2014 4:16 PM 65 gymnastics swim lessons ability to keep all 4 children in one building/area while they are engaged in multiple sports.

I have no idea what the cost would be, but important to have a convenient, easily accessible location. 11/19/2014 9:06 PM 4 Possibly between $11-$20 depending on what the facilities are and what the cost would be for residents to use the facilities. 11/13/2014 10:21 AM 5 But only if the cost for residents to sign up was cheaper 11/9/2014 9:21 AM 6 NO WAY NO HOW 11/5/2014 5:47 PM 7 Our taxes in Kendall county are already too high!11/5/2014 10:52 AM 8 Already to many fees look at the water bill $32 which will never come off the bill.11/5/2014 7:04 AM 9 Would pay if merged with another park district for a better tax base.11/4/2014 4:02 PM 10 We are massively over taxed now. Can't support any more increases in taxes.10/6/2014 10:54 AM 11 Yes, a reasonable amount.9/30/2014 11:04 AM 12 It depends on what you are building, but not a significant increase.9/29/2014 4:38 PM 13 What the hell? My taxes are alread 3x what they should be.9/29/2014 8:17 AM 14 Taxes are already too high!9/28/2014 6:28 PM 15 I am on a fixed income. Increases in taxes and utility costs always far out reach increases in Social Security pensions making it more and more difficult to just pay the necessities let alone any extras. 9/28/2014 4:41 PM 16 Senior citizen on limited income 9/28/2014 9:22 AM 17 corporate sponserships.9/27/2014 6:43 PM 18 depends on what it is - i might be willing to pay more 9/23/2014 1:58 PM 19 Take the money out of our property taxes as they are way to high for what we get 9/23/2014 1:40 PM 20 Taxes are out of control.9/19/2014 12:34 PM 21 People can't make their mortgage payments.

I would be willing if it was truly for the good of ALL the people.9/4/2014 5:14 PM 34 I would only want to pay this much extra for Bike Trails / Sidewalks 9/4/2014 7:59 AM 46 / 92 Yorkville Parks and Recreation Survey 2014 SurveyMonkey 35 I am already paying a arm and a leg to Yorkville, And you expect residents to pay more. You got to be Kidding me. Residents should not be paying almost the same amount or not even more than Naperville but that is the case here. If my bill increases i will be more than glad to move and take my business elsewhere. 9/3/2014 9:32 PM 36 I am sick of being nickeled and dimed to death in Yorkville.9/3/2014 6:47 PM 37 No use for park system 9/3/2014 4:38 PM 38 WINF, RINF and SINF are all way too much now! What do we get and how can we monitor these?9/3/2014 2:34 PM 39 our taxes already are sky high with poor roads, construction for these roads happening at the same time, so cant get anywhere in this town. The schools need major works, so I am NOT interested in paying for anything for these facillities. 9/3/2014 1:33 PM 40 We will never catch up by tacking on fees to fix infrustucure. seperating parks and rec would provide needed money to fix our crumbeling streets 8/9/2014 11:58 AM 41 Unless it's to vastly improve Senior services I would not support an increase 8/8/2014 6:06 PM 42 It really depends on what the purchase would be. I would love to have bike trails throughout the town and would pay extra for that to happen, but not to add additional tennis courts or various sports complexes of which we already have in the town. 8/8/2014 2:48 PM 47 / 92 Yorkville Parks and Recreation Survey 2014 SurveyMonkey 44.96%107 16.81%40 38.24%91 Q18 Parks and Recreation services are currently delivered by the City. Do you think a Park District would be better able to provide Parks and Recreation Services? Answered: 238 Skipped: 25 Total 238 #Comments:Date 1 That's just more bureaucracy and additional taxes 12/3/2014 11:09 AM 2 Without a doubt we need a stand alone park district like Oswego, Montgomery, Aurora, etc. all have. It's LONG overdue. We also need to stop paying health insurance benefits for part-time alderman. 11/27/2014 7:55 PM 3 from what I have seen, the parks & recreation people are very dedicated and doing a good job.11/19/2014 9:06 PM 4 Yes, but nobody would support adding another taxing body, the window for that closed a long time ago.11/10/2014 1:32 PM 5 They would just get bigger and raise our taxes.11/7/2014 10:54 AM 6 If it is not a new cost, then do a park district. We are not a large city and I feel we shouldnt get in over our heads 11/6/2014 4:43 PM 7 ANOTHER COSTLY BURACRACY. I AM IN FAVOR OF SUCH THINGS, BUT WITH TAXES AT 15% OF NET INCOME FOR A RETIRED PERSON IT IS A BIT MUCH. 11/5/2014 5:47 PM 8 Should merge with another district to gain a better tax base.11/4/2014 4:02 PM 9 Like the Club 47 purchace, big money pit to fix it up and let the lease go back to a political hack 10/17/2014 10:40 PM 10 I think yorkville needs to grow more before creating district. I see a need in 10 years or so.10/12/2014 10:47 PM 11 Definitely not another taxing body.

Our taxes are high enough already. 10/6/2014 10:14 AM 13 park district can focus specifically on park and rec mission with its own funding sources, allowing the city to fully concentrate on other important municipal services 10/4/2014 10:53 AM 14 Depends if the peolpe running it are qualified.10/3/2014 11:46 AM 15 Park dist would have their own budget and decisions and not be subject to whatever the city is budgeting to them. 9/30/2014 8:56 PM 16 City parks are really great in Yorkville! We enjoy them many times each year.9/29/2014 10:10 AM 17 Too many taxing agencies in Illinois , shopuld combine more instead of making new 9/28/2014 9:22 AM 18 insufficient info...we have zero money to pay more 9/16/2014 7:52 AM 19 I have seen and observed excellent management of funds and facilities and programs under the jurisdiction of a Park District in other communities. 9/13/2014 4:41 PM 20 YES!9/9/2014 10:17 AM 21 no division of duties, loyalties, people focused on P&R 9/9/2014 8:20 AM 22 city officials have killed Yorkville's recreation programs - lack of vision - base decisions on their own reelection rather than the future of the community - park board not listened to by the city council 9/7/2014 8:13 PM 23 it would be another layer of bureaucratic cost.9/7/2014 7:51 PM 24 What is the cost difference to the tax payer if provided by the city or park district?9/7/2014 4:17 PM 25 Absolutely!9/7/2014 2:14 PM 26 I would trust a Park Distric with my tax money over the city running the park and recs 9/5/2014 3:29 PM 27 ABSOLUTELY NOT, WE DO NOT NEED YET ANOTHER DUPLICITE Bureaucracy 9/5/2014 11:18 AM 28 The city seems politically motivated in all their decisions! Tired of programs ad services geered to benefit only a select few! 9/4/2014 5:14 PM 29 taxs would be too high look at oswego at theirs.9/3/2014 6:40 PM 30 Anytime a government entity rules something, it's a nightmare because of political agendas.9/3/2014 2:34 PM 31 We would be better off with a Park Dist. in Yorkville.

Answered: 88 Skipped: 175 #Responses Date 1 Expand. Many new working families with children of all ages who did not "grow up" here. Take advantage of our rivers and state parks. Become more inclusive of new families and reach out to them. We can't "find out" what there is to do - and when there are events - they are geared more for Senior or families with very young children. 11/29/2014 1:08 PM 2 More programs available ent he evening for people who are working during the day.11/29/2014 11:00 AM 3 The city does a good job maintaining the parks and offering a limited number of programs. However, we need a stand alone park district administrated by park and rec professionals like Oswego. It would greatly enhance the quality of life in our community. 11/27/2014 7:57 PM 4 Look into offering more services to the community and additional classes at more family friendly times ie evenings and weekends. Also it would be great if there were more amenities. 11/20/2014 10:39 PM 5 keep the parks fun, clean and safe.11/19/2014 9:06 PM 6 create a dog park at hoover plenty of room near the entrance to have a dog park 11/18/2014 3:42 PM 7 Keep up the survey and open communication line with the public.11/15/2014 3:21 PM 8 Our current need, or want, is the dance class. I know other moms who would use a less expensive course for young children. A dance class between $35-$50 where the kids can come in regular fitness clothing and dance to different types of music, or a ballet class in the same price range for which the kids can dress in ANY ballet clothing and the words "dance recital' are never mentioned. We have zero interest in paying the ultra expensive fees for one color of leotard, one color of tights plus all the costumes, recital registration, etc. 11/13/2014 10:25 AM 9 too much time and money to manicure ballfields 11/11/2014 2:26 PM 10 Force Rose Spears off the City Council along with her henchmen, Carlo Colosimo and the weasel Chris Funkhouser. If you eliminate the three stooges the department will be able to grow and flourish. 11/10/2014 1:34 PM 11 More tree trimming at parks - lots of dead branches in trees - would promote health for trees to be pruned regularly. Especially the nicer ones, like Oaks 11/9/2014 9:22 AM 12 Need indoor recreation center with areas for a variety of classes. ie. gymnastics, art, fitness,11/7/2014 9:48 PM 13 the priority should be quality services for kids and their parents, next should be senior citizens 11/7/2014 9:07 AM 14 Build an indoor field house for multi- purpose events.11/5/2014 7:35 PM 15 EVERYONE I MEET IS GREAT. BUILDING MORE PLAY AREAS AS A COMMUNITY LIKE WE DID YEARS AGO IN BRISTOL IS A GREAT IDEA. 11/5/2014 5:48 PM 16 more options for adults especially seniors 11/5/2014 11:17 AM 17 open Harris pond. I used to fish there every evening in the summer.11/5/2014 10:54 AM 18 A new indoor pool facility. Club 47 (the former Rec Center) is in poor condition.11/4/2014 6:15 PM 19 Groups geared towards overweight adults wanting to lose weight. Things for spouses to do together.11/4/2014 4:57 PM 20 Merge with another Park District to gain a better tax base to provide better facilities and opportunities.11/4/2014 4:03 PM 21 Programs were run by outside firms. Class partition was low due to high cost per program. All 4 programs we signed up for were cancelled. Did get our money back but they sure messed up our schedule! 11/4/2014 1:05 PM 22 join fox valley 10/24/2014 10:07 AM 23 Get rid of the whole board and director, start out new.10/17/2014 10:41 PM 24 Athletic leagues or sports for adults as well 10/17/2014 6:34 PM 50 / 92 Yorkville Parks and Recreation Survey 2014 SurveyMonkey 25 baseball softball fields lights drag fields on weekends fences fixed 10/9/2014 12:42 PM 26 n/a 10/8/2014 3:46 PM 27 Better upkeep/management of all parks.10/8/2014 11:06 AM 28 Satisfied as they are 10/8/2014 8:31 AM 29 Outdoor pool 10/7/2014 7:14 PM 30 Tim and Scott do wonderful things with the material they have to work with. I wonder how well they could do if they were turned loose to really advertise and create better programming for all of Yorkville and surrounding areas. 10/6/2014 11:55 AM 31 keep moving forward. You'll get it right soon 10/6/2014 11:09 AM 32 The sled hill off Rt 71 could be upgraded a bit to make it nicer. Families really enjoy it.10/6/2014 10:55 AM 33 More indoor space that is owned by the City, but specifically for recreational use 10/4/2014 11:03 AM 34 Just visited the Vaughn Pool at the Fox Valley Park District in Aurora. Big mistake giving up the Club 47 Building. Now we have nothing! 10/3/2014 10:10 PM 35 Communicate with residents on the north end of Yorkville.....10/3/2014 5:54 AM 36 GROW!!!!! And advertise. We go to other park districts because they offer more classes, more varieties and classes are not cancelled. Oswego should be your role-model! 10/2/2014 1:01 PM 37 We need affordable flexible hour gym within the community 10/1/2014 10:10 PM 38 Bike trails along river 10/1/2014 8:14 PM 39 Provide services that are reasonable in cost and taught by adequately trained instructors!10/1/2014 11:11 AM 40 I would have like to have seen the city keep the rec center.9/30/2014 8:56 PM 41 Would be nice to have a facility to attend classes or work out.9/30/2014 5:00 PM 42 Offer more variety. Increase bike paths that go somewhere. Look to Oswego and Joliet as examples. They are big and awesome park districts. 9/30/2014 11:05 AM 43 don't really have any suggestions 9/29/2014 7:19 PM 44 Better care of baseball fields 9/29/2014 4:18 PM 45 Inform them at school of activities.9/29/2014 9:43 AM 46 Downsize to an appropiate size for a small town.

More outdoor or access to basketball courts for recreation. The Plano YMCA is a terrible alternative. 9/27/2014 1:44 PM 53 Yorkville should have a park District and a clubhouse/field house to host different types of programs. There should be discounts offered to first time residents who join and there should be a lot of kid focused activities and clubs. There should be some bike paths, and some maybe even a swimming pool. 9/24/2014 7:41 PM 54 We need a rec center 9/23/2014 1:59 PM 55 I love the parks themselves, and I think they are quite nice, but I really miss the opportunity to take classes offered through the park district for adults. 9/22/2014 8:03 PM 51 / 92 Yorkville Parks and Recreation Survey 2014 SurveyMonkey 56 We really want a more inviting river park where we can take long walks, but apparently there is funding in the works to make that happen. We'd love to see a playground park in our neighborhood (Countryside). More than anything, we want a Yorkville recreational swimming center. 9/22/2014 9:44 AM 57 Tree city USA grants 9/19/2014 12:34 PM 58 Many of the parks in/ around Yorkville have sand wasps in the which are dangerous for children. Many of these areas could be changed to a splash pad. With a city this size it would be nice to have more than one (currently one of the sprinkler heads hasn't worked all summer). We recently were in Bloomington and was impressed by the large splash pad that serves their community. It is at Miller Park. We would love to see something of this magnitude brought to Yorkville. Not everyone can afford Raging Waves! 9/15/2014 6:57 AM 59 It's own facility where you can have football fields, soccer, baseball all in one on the South side of Yorkville.9/14/2014 9:22 PM 60 Keep costs affordable to working families and senior citizens 9/13/2014 4:42 PM 61 Start connecting trails throughout city. Fitness classes for adults, after work hours 9/13/2014 3:14 PM 62 Some of the parks slides were so dirty.....need to check the conditions more often so kids can use them.9/10/2014 8:30 AM 63 Please add more bike trails for the safety of our community. Please recognize that our youth need more outdoor activities here in Yorkville. We currently drive 5-40 minutes to participate in Plano, Oswego, and Aurora's park district events. We would love to be able to keep our money in Yorkville. 9/9/2014 10:20 AM 64 I would like to see dance classes for kids that are not attached to a "dance academy". I really don't have any interest in getting involved in the ridiculously expensive world of dance and recitals. However, I would like for our kids to have the option to take a casual ballet or creative movement class. A type of class where they could learn and practice the basics that doesn't cost a fortune. 9/8/2014 12:18 PM 65 Survey is way too long.9/8/2014 8:55 AM 66 Get the City Council to have a vision to develop programs for the city rather than killing the Parks and Rec services. Develop a cooperative relationship with the school district and plan a shared field house and fitness center with rooms that would provide access to all ages throughout the day. The high school site would provide parking and a convenient location for the community. 9/7/2014 8:18 PM 67 I believe my suggestions were left inside my previous comments.9/7/2014 4:19 PM 68 Focus on what other area facilities do not have or work to be an adjunct to them.9/6/2014 2:50 PM 69 Public PR could definitely help improve P&R.9/6/2014 12:00 PM 70 None, Tim does a good job.9/6/2014 8:55 AM 71 More activities for toddlers 9/5/2014 7:32 PM 72 Hockey rink with open skate times, more smaller friday or saturday fest, no more hometown days 9/5/2014 7:17 PM 73 Become a park district 9/5/2014 3:29 PM 74 support from residents to acquire facility 9/5/2014 2:52 PM 75 raise fee's to self supporting levels. cut taxes 9/5/2014 11:19 AM 76 There are more things than baseball. The field are seem to be kept in immaculate condition while other areas suffer! Bathrooms are needed in the park by the river! Trash collection is a problem at the river! Kayaking is not the only thing that draws people to the river. Many families visit this area. Bathrooms are needed, more picnic tables, regular trash collection, a playground. This area could be such a great resource for the Yorkville, but it is largely ignored. It needs to be a place everyone can enjoy, not just the few people who use the kayak shoot. The grounds need to be maintained better! There is grass and weeds growing up through the pavers and it looks terrible! The plant are dying. Expand the butterfly garden. Cut down the weeds across the foot bridge so people can walk down the paths. It is a very neglected area! 9/4/2014 5:20 PM 77 Pay more attention to pond management and fishing opportunities.9/4/2014 2:23 PM 78 Continue to purchase more property for the county 9/4/2014 8:14 AM 79 Offering more classes or events that include a diverse group of people, and to encourage ethnic individuals to participate in the programs. 9/4/2014 3:26 AM 80 parks are nice. bike trails or ice rink in winter might be nice 9/3/2014 8:23 PM 52 / 92 Yorkville Parks and Recreation Survey 2014 SurveyMonkey 81 None 9/3/2014 4:38 PM 82 COMMUNICATION.

We live in Bristol Bay, and the area designated fur kids under 5 is just a stage, and no one plays on it.

The only city park I visit is the one on the river and it's new and may not fairly represent the other facilities. 9/30/2014 8:57 PM 19 No.9/30/2014 11:06 AM 20 no 9/29/2014 7:23 PM 21 I think you have done a great job.9/29/2014 10:14 AM 22 no 9/29/2014 9:47 AM 23 No 9/28/2014 7:45 PM 24 Cancel it 9/27/2014 6:27 PM 25 We just want to see improvements in the city such as bike trails/basketball courts and improvements of cracked streets. 9/27/2014 1:47 PM 26 no 9/27/2014 1:33 PM 27 Why is it necessary to ask about the race/ethnicity on this survey?

I think it does solicit the information that it needs.9/22/2014 8:08 PM 30 YES. Provide only 4 choices (4 categories) for answers. It forces an answer to me either more supportive or less supportive. Don't give us the chance to remain neutral/ uncommitted. That information - neutral - does not tell you anything. 9/13/2014 4:45 PM 31 Shorten it up.....maybe just ask concerns or requests.9/10/2014 8:33 AM 32 No, it is fine.
