Status of Recruitment Efforts for Tennis Center Management - Currently, the operation of the tennis center is being overseen by City staff members. Request for Proposals (RFP) were mailed to prospective applicants last week and advertisements were run in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram newspaper. The deadline for RFP submittals is December 7, 2001. Mr. Hugman said his goal was to have someone selected and in place in January 2002. During previous Park Board discussions about the guidelines for the RFP, the Park Board had recommended that the RFP include the provision that the utilities would be paid by the City. The RFP also states that the contractor may take exception to any of the terms in the RFP, which would be open for negotiation. To -date, the City has not received any RFPs, but through `word-of-mouth' November 12, 2001 Parks & Recreation Board Regular Meeting Page 1 of 7 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 advertisement and due to an article which appeared in the NETT newsletter, the City has received about 10 phone calls requesting that RFP packets be mailed. Nature Center -- Ms. Stokdyk asked if the cupola on the donated Nature Center had been boarded up? Mr. Hugman said he believed it had been taken care of by Deputy Director Steve Polasek. Nature Center Committee — Ms. Stokdyk stated she attended the Keep Southlake Beautiful (KSB) meeting this week as the liaison for the Greater Southlake Women's Society and said she could foresee questions arising pertaining to the selection of the Nature Center Committee. The selection of the committee members will be done by the Park Board, not the City Council. Mr. Hugman explained that KSB would nominate KSB members and give their nominee to the Park Board, which will make the appointment. Ms. Stokdyk said there was confusion about the selection and asked for clarification. She said: "When the ultimate selection is by the Park Board, and you have applications in front of you — yes, you are filling that KSB slots, but you are trying to get your best qualified people." Mr. Miltenberger responded: "KSB should have the right to nominate somebody and we [Park Board] will approve whomever they say. If KSB feels that somebody should be on there [Nature Center Committee], I as a Park Board member, do not want to NOT put them on there." Ms. Stokdyk said that KSB was having difficulty with nomination of their second person. She said she was afraid when the Park Board put too many requirements that the nominees had to come from an organization, that the organization tends to look at their board members who are already stretched to the max and said that hopefully they will consider other people in their membership that are more interested or better qualified. Ms. White added that people that come up and want to be a part of it should be considered; that it is not absolutely mandatory that KSB nominate from its membership. Mr. Miltenberger suggested and Ms. Stokdyk and Mr. Hugman agreed that a list of the applications received, which are also KSB members, be given to KSB so that they will know which KSB members are interested in serving on the committee and have made their application. KSB will make their formal recommendation to the Park Board. Ms. Georgia clarified KSB's appointment requirements by quoting from the minutes of October 8, 2001, page 14, section (b) which states: "Two members of Keep Southlake Beautiful or citizens -at -large, appointed by Keep Southlake Beautiful Board of Directors." Ms. Stokdyk thanked Ms. Georgia and said "appointed" was the key word. At this time Chairman Miltenberger recognized Peter Gaal, commissioner of the Grapevine-Southlake Soccer Association (GSSA), in the audience and informed him that the Facilities Utilization Agreement with GSSA would be considered during the "consent" portion of the meeting as a matter of routine. Mr. Gaal said he would answer any questions from the Board about the agreement. The Board did not have any questions. Mr. Moore briefly met with Mr. Gaal concerning the changes made to the spring schedule for Grapevine-Southlake Soccer Association practice.

Game fields are located in both cities. Within Southlake, Bob Jones Park is the area allotted for soccer play. The vision of GSSA is to have Bob Jones Park become the premier soccer complex within Southlake to service the needs of the soccer playing community of the city. This matching funds request is to purchase a 7' Grade Rite leveler. The GSSA is prepared to pay our portion of the matching grant. The purchase of this equipment will allow the City to maintain the playing fields by leveling the fields to remove irregularities, ruts, holes and other uneven portions of the park that currently pose a safety risk to players and referees and detracts from game. The equipment will also be invaluable when new fields are created to insure a smooth and even playing surface. Upon purchase of the equipment and the subsequent leveling of game fields, Bob Jones Park will move a step closer to becoming a complete soccer complex.

Participation increased by over 100% from the inaugural event in 2000 and we expect to attract even more artists and participants in 2002. Because of generous sponsors, the Southlake Women's Club provided over $80,000 in direct support to 12 deserving charities. For its' past accomplishments Art in the Square has been recognized and listed in the 2001 Art Source Event Book. I am pleased to let you know that plans are underway for the 2002 event which is scheduled for April 26 - 28, 2002 at Southlake Town Square. The 2002 art festival jointly hosted by the City of Southlake, Southlake Women's Club the City of Southlake and Southlake Town Square will again be a free juried event showcasing over 100 artists, the Kids Korner, continuous STREET AND STAGE entertainment and food and refreshments in the street Le Bistro. The Star Telegram will publish an Art in. the Square tabloid in the Sunday edition prior to the event. Baylor Medical Center @ Grapevine, NBC 5, Dan Sweeney State Farm, Star Telegram and Fort Worth, Texas Magazine are early returning sponsors for 2002. We are extremely pleased to announce Rebecca Miller, NBC 5 Meteorologist as Honorary Chairman for 2002. In order to increase attendance and better market the event, the Southlake Women's Club has secured $2000 from the Star Telegram to have banners made that will be mounted 10 to 14 days prior to the event on 10 to 15 TXU electrical poles along Fm1709/ Southlake Blvd. from Commerce Street to Davis Blvd. For your information TXU Electric has given verbal permission for use of their poles, I am waiting for the necessary paperwork. Additional funds are needed for the scroll bars and band brackets. We are requesting $1000 under the Project and Community Matching Funds Request Policy through the SPDC and Parks and Recreation Board. The scroll bars and band brackets would become property of the city for future use. I have enclosed a statement of cost from Cartwright Signs in Garland. Please contact me at 817-410-9663 if you have any questions. Any additional marketing of Art in the Square is' an excellent avenue of increasing exposure and revenue for the merchants of Southlake which ultimately helps the City of Southlake.

Here are just a few examples: • Recycled PET can be used in producing deli and bakery trays, carpets, clothing and textiles. • Recycled HDPE can become bottles for laundry products, recycling bins, agricultural pipe, bags, motor oil bottles, decking and marine pilings. • Recycled vinyl can become playground equipment, film and air bubble cushioning. • Recycled LDPE can be used to manufacture bags, shrink film and compost bins. • Recycled PP can be used in automobile parts, carpets, battery casings, textiles, industrial fibers and films used for packaging products such as candy. • Recycled PS can be used in products including office accessories, video cassettes and cases. To help public and private sector buyers identify products made with recycled plastic, APCpublishes "The Recycled Plastic Products Source Book" that lists more than 1,400 products. APC also publishes a consumer's guide to recycled products. ".Shop Recycled!" lists r.,,, than 240 commonly used consumer items that are either made from or packaged with recycled plastics.
