Recreation Advisory Board <br />Minutes <br />January 27, 2025 <br />Page 3 of 4 <br />barriers be added? Residents downhill are just returning to newly built <br />homes. <br />Renovations to tennis courts and other park facilities including bocce ball <br />are being made. Snow removal has been effective and timely. <br />Kathy: Relocation of inline hockey rinks is still uncertain. The two sites that <br />were considered will not work. More review for other sites is needed. <br />• Golf Updates — GM Position hiring update — Kathy <br />Golf staff will report to a new Golf Manager. 50 applications received and <br />interviews will start soon. City no longer allows Board members to help <br />with interviews. Dick: it's important to have a citizen be included in the <br />interviews, not necessarily Board members. It should not just be City <br />employees conducting interviews. How can Board members raise these <br />concerns since City Council cannot decide who can conduct interviews? <br />Kathy: the Board needs to communicate our concerns to the Interim City <br />Manager and Interim HR Director. Board agreed that Lisa will contact <br />these folks with our concerns. <br />Board Updates <br />• 2025 City Council Presentation (presented to City Council April 8) <br />Lisa: we have slides from Meredyth Muth to use for RAB bullets, etc. Lisa <br />will ask us to review draft slides and then meet to discuss them on March <br />17. All RAB members are invited to our presentation to Council. <br />• Outdoor Rec Amenities Update <br />Lisa: we have not met since the last RAB meeting. We will meet next on <br />March 10. <br />• 2026 budget requests due to City Council on May 1st <br />Lisa: we will need to consider budgeting for additional staffing, equipment, <br />etc. Kathy: we could use a new Coordinator position to support Jesse and <br />Mandy for youth sport programs. She thinks we would need an additional <br />$32,000 for 20 hours per week. RAB agreed we should advocate for this <br />position in a memo to City Council. <br />Michele: did we get any feedback on Dick's proposal to the City planners <br />during our last meeting? We did not get many answers to our questions <br />
