Truman seconded.A roll- call vote was taken: Truman,yes;Fiala,yes; Korinek,yes; Smock,yes;Pilmer,no;Koch,yes. Developer Presentation- Richard Young,Kimball Homes,presented a preliminary concept plan for the Anderson Farm development.In its review of the plan,the Board discussed the relation of the topography of the development and the land-cash requirement.Discussion concluded with the Board's recommendation for an unobstructed 4-6 acre neighborhood park south of Rt.71, and a trail system to run north/south through the development,winding through the trees, along a 20' corridor. They also recommend a trail head north of Rt. 71,with a portion of the trail replacing sidewalk. The developer would install the trail according to city standards for 100 percent credit. Further discussion was tabled until the School District identifies the number of acres required for the proposed school site. Rich Guerard,Kimball Hill Homes,presented the plan for development of the Challey Farm. The plan proposes a 2.8 acre public park and a trail.Discussion focused on location of the park and trail. Board discussion concluded with the recommendation for one,2-acre park on the west side of the development,that could adjoin to a future school site,and a north/south trail running along the tree line in the western section of the development, connecting with the trail to the south. immemomminni David Meek, attorney for Aspen Ridge Estates,made the initial presentation of this development, which is located on the Morris Farm.He explained the plan allows over 16 acres of park land, including a trail system and+1-7.5 acres of park land.Phil Stuepfert discussed the plan further, inviting suggestions from the Board on park location, and trail placement. The Board concluded that: • They are not interested in the five acre park proposed for the center of the development • They prefer trail,in lieu of sidewalks(with no credit to the developer) starting at the northeast corner of the development and connecting to the trail to the south,running along the west side of the tree line,and a 20' corridor,if not in lieu of sidewalk.The balance of the land/cash obligation would be in cash.If trail runs through any homeowner association}property,the Park Board requests clear ownership of the trail. Old Business- None New Business: Brown reported a revision to the current contract with YYBSA, changing the term of the contract to run April I through September 30,and not limiting the term to 3 months.They will use city- owned fields at no charge, as available, otherwise they will use school fields. Brown said that staff is currently working with the league organizer to determine whether it is also feasible for the depan linent to do the organization's master scheduling. Brown said that if the Board agrees with the change it will be presented to City Council for approval. John Paku,president of YYBSA,and Beth Prickett,treasurer, expressed the organization's satisfaction with the working relationship the organization has with the city. Fiala moved to approve the contract change and to proceed to City Council for approval. Smock seconded. Approval was unanimous. Additional Business: Brown reported that the riverfront shelter is currently under construction. Brown also announced receipt of a letter from IDNR stating that the city was selected to receive a$128,000 grant,for the Cannonball Ridge project,from the OSLAD program.Awards will be announced by February 1,2005. She said the project is a 50 percent match.The entire project cost is $240,000: $128,000 from the state, and$128,000 from land/cash. Brown reported finishing paperwork for the reimbursement for Rice Park in the amount of $74,000. Correspondence- None The meeting adjourned at 8:50 p.m., following a motion by Pilmer.Koch seconded the motion. Respectfully submitted, Judy Rice Recording Secretary YORKVILLE RECREATION DEPARTMENT Superintendent's Monthly Report—Regular Park Board Meeting Dec. 13th,2004-Meeting Month of November -2004 Highlights and Summary: • We ended our Fall Soccer season in October. Becky and Lisa did a very nice job, we didn't have any serious problems and we had quite a few good comments from surveys returned • We were at about 65 to 70%of running programs this fall, most that were cancelled were from contractual instructors, i.e. Empower Training, Dog Classes,Kung Fu, Tumbling, With the extra staff member our goal is to target the right classes and advertise more and differently than in the past. • Professional Development School—I attended the first year of two years of school at Rend Lake Resort. This school lasted three days and was very good I left with some new ideas regarding staff management and development. I plan on implementing some new motivational ideas that will help with staff communication. • In-service training-our department held an in-service day in which we reviewed RecTrac Software registration procedures, and Facility Registration procedures. We also discussed filing procedures in regards to rental forms and registration forms. It was a very beneficial day and plan on holding more in the future as the need arises. • I spent a good deal of time working with our computer consultant, ordering the necessary equipment for our new staff member, upgrading some systems and networking the administration office. The Beecher Office is networked to a server and has a T1 line for Internet use. The Riverfront building now has Comcast Internet service. • I have begun to work with the committee on the Polar Plunge that will take place March 5", 2005. • I have been working on programming responsibilities for Becky, Tim and myself We have separated athletics,fitness and some clubs,from the day-to-day classes and programs. • We currently have a cleaning service at Beecher for 10 hours a week and a custodian for 14 hours a week. We have had some minor problems with equipment and communication.In the near future I will be proposing a full time employee for the cleaning, and maintenance of the building. This would be done during hours when not many people are using the building. There would need to be some flexible hours depending on the rentals for the weekends.

I am looking forward to getting more involved with the programs that are being offered and working with the rest of the department in expanding and developing new programs. As for the one program that I have begun to get very involved with is the Parker's Playtime Preschool. I have taken the time to meet all of the staff and set-up weekly meetings with Michelle. We also have had a meeting with Pastor Steve to air out any concerns and what can be improved in the future. From that meeting Pastor Steve agreed to check on the crib section of the preschool room for the month of December, to see if that equipment can be moved out and give the preschool a little more room. As for AR's (Accounts Receivables) we seem to have a good handle on this area as we have about 2 -3 families that are repeatedly late in their payments, but do pay by the middle of the month. Michelle and her staff do a great job, really seem to enjoy working with the kids and parents and come up with some great ideas to encourage participation and learning form the kids. As for other programs that I was involved with was Young Einstein's, in which Rebecca came up with some pretty neat things, that Becky will write about in her report, Kindermusik that is a great concept and class but needs more participation and many one day classes such as Toddler Days, Gobbles of Fun and holiday craft classes. Survey Summary We sent out surveys to all of the parents with children enrolled in our Young Einstein Program. We had some great suggestion and responses on the season. Some of the comments included: they enjoyed the class and themes, in which even one parent comments " classes made fun enough that the kids didn't realize they're learning!" The instructor had high remarks, but there was one parent that had concerns with the way she spoke to the kids. That situation was addressed with the instructor and parent and resolved. The only real concern was the time of the class. Many parents would like the class to be held a half-hour to an hour latter, Instructor Evaluations I observed three instructors in the past month, Rebecca, Sharon and Michelle. Overall all three are good instructors with hearts of gold. Each brings a different ability to the department, but have some small issues that need to be addressed and worked on. Overall, all three make great contributions to the department and I hope to help enhance their abilities as well as have them challenge me in the future. Scholarships/Grants Nov. - $172.00 was awarded for the fall quarter. • • Name�two new parks dor Fate ostmaste �, Kiwanis By Kathy Farren 1955 to 1982 tie owned the Ciawtord ` T7ewehy'.Store in downtown Yorkville': , Dutmg his 27,-)7 ear tenure as Postmaster Yorkville City Council menibeis voted 'also as he wwthe National Learslatrve; last week to -name"two new' parks'rn he as of ttie National League ,of honor ofd a local organization and a • postmasters foi`mer Postmaster �. .Crawfod was instrumentalln the-drive The part. and:bike trail alone the Fox to build the tnsinstru eht Lea nn Hall River in R>ver'sEdge Subdr�ision on the (n'ow Freeman`s Spaits);m Yoke rlle as south side of Fox Road will ;be named well as in estabt nits the I orkzrlls CrawfordPark'in honor of Che late Harty Music Boosters',He wa5�r pest ptesrdent - Crawtord'who once fai-rned the-land =The name was suggested by Crawfords of the Yo"rk�ille;Lionsu Clubrand M tstei daughter, Sherry Anderson of York ille ofthe Masonic Lodge Before;seiving as Postma.stet here from Atter mo�ine his tariul� in 1970 to " the Carni'on.Fox Road where Riv er's Edge is" now '.located he enjoyed .horseback riding along the rr�'er'with his' children'and Grandchildren his daughter said rnhe nominating letter The park m Couritry,Hills Subdivision was named:Kiw_ants Pail. inrecoenition; • of`the Gieater"Yorkville Area'Krwan s Club which has conducted -sevei=al, fundraisers Joi part. ;programs and: enhancements ..The name \yas suOeested - hvSv l�is Tor to.'Ktwanic ice president { .The."organization contributed 5500. raised throueh`thtee on';th ee bask"etball "tournam'ents _to the,__Cou'ntr ;Hills basketball court: Rec._ Dept: pràgrams Registration is now being taken or the • thirdto sixth grade Yorkville°Recreation': Department program; Practices will be held-during the week with'-games;_on • Saturdays Volunteer coaches_are still needed.
