That
are
required,
so
we
are
going
through
that
process.
Now
it's
been
a
collaboration
between
madison
planning,
the
parks,
department
and
horatio
that
was
started
in
the
summer
of
2021.,
the
madison
planning
department
sort
of
initiated
the
public
survey,
that's
required
by
dnr
and
passed
along
a
lot
of
that
prior
information
to
us
to
compile
and
look
at
the
data
points
that
have
been
collected
through
demographics
and
survey.
Information
thus
far,
and
then
tonight's
meeting
is
also
a
required
part
of
the
planning
process
to
get
some
public
feedback.
H
I
J
I
K
I
So
we
have
a
lot
of
infographics
that
represent
data
and
demographic
information
that
we've
included.
So
I'm
not
going
to
stop
and
go
into
all
of
these
in
detail,
but
I'll
just
run
through
them
and
we'll
provide
this
presentation
to
you
after
after
tonight,
so
that
it
can
be
posted
on
the
city
website
and
you
guys
can
look
at
these
in
more
detail.
I
So,
just
as
I
mentioned,
it's
a
very
data
driven
process
guided
by
dnr,
and
so
a
lot
of
the
things
that
we
look
at
are
things
like
population
density
and
walkable
areas
from
people's
residences
to
the
local
parks.
So
you
can
see
here
the
main
areas
of
dark
green
are
where
we're
showing
highest
population
density.
I
I
We
look
at
health
and
physical
activity
statistics
and
things
like
whether
people
drive
to
work
or
walk
around
a
lot.
I
know
that
a
lot
of
people
probably
live
and
work
pretty
close
to
to
each
other,
but
quite
not
that's
in
indianapolis,
where
I've
got
a
30
minute
commute.
So
I'm
in
my
car
for
quite
a
quite
a
long
time.
I
If
you
look
at
population
density
and
population
changes
over
time.
This
graph
is
representing
the
fact
that
throughout
the
state
of
indiana,
we've
had
an
increase
in
population,
but
madison
and
jefferson
county
have
been
slightly
decreasing.
The
population
and
all
of
this
information
came
from
we're,
showing
2000
to
2020.
All
of
this
data
came
from
the
2020
survey
or
excuse
me
census
we're
looking
at
things
like
median
age,
which
is
beginning
to
trend
younger
in
medicine.
I
I
I
I
That
we
receive
playgrounds
are
also
really
high
on
this,
and
this
demonstrates
that
the
community
wants
more
playgrounds,
splash
pads
picnic,
shelters
and
expanded
trail
systems,
and
so
we
take
all
of
that
data
into
consideration
as
we're
developing
these
concepts
and
here's
where
that
physical
condition
and
the
parks
maintenance,
sort
of
shows
up
58
feel
that
the
parks
need
to
be
better
maintained
and
have
more
attention
which
partially
has
to
do
with
staffing.
Now,
as
we've
discussed,
priority
improvements
to
existing
parks,
again
playgrounds
really
really
high
on
the
list.
I
K
L
I
Solutions
in
order
to
be
at
that
level
of
funding
the
parks
and
then
we
just
sort
of
created
a
little
bit
of
a
word
cloud
here.
If
people
had
to
change
one
thing
about
madison
parks,
you
can
see
here
the
larger
the
word
the
more
often
it
was
mentioned
so
again,
playgrounds,
maintenance,
restrooms,
splash,
park
trails.
I
I
A
It's
not
to
say
that
these
are
exactly
the
way
you
know
these
parks
should
be
developed,
but
but
you
know
notions
about
what
how
the
parks
could
be
changed
to
respond
to
all
the
data
that
kerry
just
shared
with
you,
so
they're
not
set
in
stone,
but
they
begin
to
just
give
you
a
sense
of
where
things
could
go
and
one
of
the
things
that
you'll
see
we
hope
throughout
this
is.
There
is
an
opportunity
with
through
design
of
these
spaces.
To
begin
to,
you
know.
A
A
brand
for
madison
parks
and
reinforce
some
continuity.
You
know
the
way
you
handle
edges
of
things
or
you
know,
using
the
same
kinds
of
materials
or
lighting
over
and
over.
It
just
really
starts
to
show
the
public
sort
of
a
concerted
effort
to
be
organized
and
strategic
about
the
improvements,
so
we're
hoping
that
that's
part
of
what
you'll
see
here
oakhill
park.
Many
of
you
are
probably
familiar
with
it's
a
it's
a
neighborhood
park.
A
You
know,
surrounded
on
three
sides
by
by
streets
essentially
includes
a
bit
of
a
basketball
court
which
you
can
just
see
from
the
slide
here
is
not
not
in
great
shape
right
now,
a
fence
around
it.
There's
a
swing
set
and
a
small
shelter
that
is
shown
on
that
on
that
inset
there
so
pretty
interesting
opportunity
to
to
add
some
things
that
again
support
a
lot
of
the
data
that
we've
been
seeing.
A
What
we've?
What
we
think
probably
could
go
here
is
a
new,
a
new
playground,
a
new
picnic
shoulder
upgrade
the
basketball
court.
Maybe
some
signage,
that's
again
could
be
consistently
developed
throughout
all
of
your
parks
over
time,
not
all
at
one.
One
time
and
then
some
plantings
and
just
increase
maintenance.
A
So
this
is
a
an
aerial
sort
of
from
the
same
angle,
if
you
will,
of
the
existing
condition
photo
that
you
saw
we'll
see
a
few.
A
few
images
of
this
generated
for
more
of
an
eye
level
and
you'll
get
an
understanding
of
it,
but
in
the
center
of
the
park
we're
showing
a
new
shelter
that
would
be
big
enough
to
have
a
couple
of
different
families
there.
A
Maybe
you
know
for
some
sort
of
an
event,
a
playground
which
we'll
get
a
little
bit
better
sense
of
in
just
a
second,
but
it's
this
this
cursor
show
up.
I
don't
know
if
you
can
see
me
circling
that,
but
it's
what
looks
like
blue
over
here,
a
new
basketball
court
here
and
then
you
know
this
could
be
a
number
of
different
things
in
in
this
area.
Over
here.
What
we're
portraying
is
pickleball
courts.
I
don't
know,
has
anybody
played
a
pickleball
yeah
awful
lot
of
people
like
pickleball
these
days?
A
A
The
other
thing
that
we're
that
we're
showing
that's
worth
mentioning
is
a
path
around
the
outside
of
the
entire
park
so
again
to
carry
his
earlier
point
about
how
every
time
we
do
one
of
these
surveys,
it's
not
just
us.
It's
people
who
do
park
planning
all
over
the
country.
You
do
a
survey.
The
very
first
thing
that
pops
up
on
people's
list
of
priorities
tends
to
be
trails.
A
People
just
want
to
get
out
and
walk.
It's
obviously
very
easy
to
do
and
it
doesn't
take
specialized
equipment
and
all
that
kind
of
thing.
So
in
any
time
that
we
can
connect
pedestrian
systems
up
to
other
things
within
within
these
parts.
It's
a
good
idea.
So
if
we
get
down
on
the
ground,
this
would
be
on
sort
of
the
would
be
the
south
side
of
the
park.
I
believe
we're
showing
a
sign
idea
here.
That's
kind
of
a
composition,
maybe
a
stone
wall
and
then
a
piece
of
cut
limestone.
A
A
Whatever
the
sign
is,
you
know
whatever
we
ultimately
decide,
the
right
amount
of
money
is
to
spend
on
a
sign.
Just
you
know
be
consistent
about
it
from
part
to
part,
so
you
can
also
see
in
the
background
the
shelter
there
maybe
make
out
the
the
basketball
court
just
beyond,
but
again
just
paying
some
attention
to
plantings,
the
sense
of
an
entry
and
a
gateway,
and
things
like
that.
A
Park
you're
getting
a
little
bit
of
a
glimpse
of
what
could
be
a
playground,
so
some
new
playground,
equipment
and
then
you'll
see
that
stone
wall
pop
up
again
and
again,
whether
this
is
used
a
lot
or
just
a
little
in
parks.
It's
one
of
the
things
that
that
we're
advocating
is
maybe
a
way
to
begin
to
sort
of
be
very
contextual.
A
You
know
for
your
own
parents
to
sit
on
while,
while
their
kids
play
the
other
thing,
that's
showing
up
in
this
concept
is
this
fence
and
there
is
currently
a
fence
in
oakville
park.
It's
a
fairly
rusty,
chain-link
fence,
and
this
is
the
kind
of
part
that
maybe
wouldn't
would
benefit
from
having
an
edge
like
that,
and
it
isn't
to
keep
people
out.
As
much
as
say,
keep
balls
and
things
like
that,
and
maybe
an
errant
kid
in,
especially
if
you've
got
a
park
surrounded
by
three
side
on
three
sides
with
streets.
A
So
it's
this
level
of
development
that
we've
given
a
number
of
different
parks,
and
tonight
you
know
we're
gonna,
we're
sharing
oak
hill,
we're
also
going
to
share
gains
and
vital
it's
not
to
say
that
those
are
the
only
three
parts
that
we're
sort
of
contemplating
will
have
ideas
for
in
the
interest
of
time,
we're
showing
those
three
so
gains
an
interesting
site.
Of
course,
there
was
a
school,
a
historic
school
on
this
site
and
the
park
essentially
honors
in
in
some
ways
that
school.
A
A
What
was
probably
just
a
brown
shape
for
those
of
you
who
can
see
the
monitor
there
community
gardens
here
on
this
side
of
the
park,
putting
a
path
down
the
middle
that
sort
of
serves
as
an
organizing
element
of
turning
the
basketball
court
90
degrees
and
pushing
it
to
the
back
so
that
a
little
bit
larger
playground
with
some
sort
of
updated
fall
surface
like
a
rubberized
surface
could
be
been
installed
there
down
on
the
ground.
The
entry
to
the
park
makes
use
of
the
cornerstone.
A
The
idea
is
that
the
cornerstone
from
the
old
it's
a
high
school
right.
It
used
to
be
here
so
tying
this
particular
site
back
to
its
history,
creating
some
context
and
interpretation
and
story.
We
think
could
be
very
important,
but
anyway
you
get
a
sense
of
again.
The
the
shelter
is
very
similar
to
the
one
go
kill,
so
there
starts
to
be
a
little
bit
of
a
kit
of
parts
that
can
be
used
here
and
the
more
you
use
them.
A
A
A
Real
strong
music
sort
of
program-
I
guess
for
lack
of
a
better
word
in
madison.
We
know
that
that's
a
big
part
of
the
arts
program
is
music
and
live
performance,
and
things
like
that
lydon
seems
like
one
of
those
places
where
that
could
happen.
Currently
there's
a
fairly
small
gazebo
right
in
the
middle
of
it.
Some
picnic
tables
and
things
like
that.
So
the
idea
is
that
you
know
perhaps
a
new
structure
a
little
bit
larger
structure.
A
Nothing,
that's
going
to
compete
with
a
pavilion
at
say,
bicentennial
park
or
something,
but
something
that
might
be
suitable
for
one
person
playing
guitar
or
doing
some
spoken,
word,
poetry
or
something
like
that
could
be
incorporated
and
again
improving
signage
and
upgrading
plantings
and
so
forth.
So
the
idea
is:
maybe
we
maybe
we,
you
know
design
a
smaller
shelter
that
would
go
down
at
the
south
end
of
the
park
open
the
lawn
up.
So
you
you're
kind
of
creating
a
single
point
of
focus.
A
If
you
will
maybe
some
plantings
that
begin
to
screen
the
parking
lot,
that's
to
the
west
side
of
the
park,
and
then
you
see
sort
of
a
reference
again
to
maybe
using
some
stone
walls
here
and
there
that
begin
to
to
extend
the
brand
a
little
shelter
like
that.
You
know
just
just
big
enough
for
maybe
one
or
two
people
backing
up
to
the
alley.
A
D
A
A
Installed
playgrounds
recently
so
that
it's
not
rocket
science
necessarily,
but
this
is
sort
of
a
moment
where
you
can
think
a
little
bit
about
you
know.
Would
you
like
to
use
one
particular
kind
of
playground
equipment?
Do
you
want
to
have
one
sort
of
standard,
look
or
theme
or
something
like
that?
This
stuff
is
pretty
expensive,
so
it
becomes
kind
of
an
important
conversation,
as
you
guys,
I'm
sure
are
aware:
it's
not
hard
to
spend
hundred
thousand
dollars.
A
A
A
lot
of
communities
are
doing,
is
sort
of
the
nature
play
based
kinds
of
experiences
where
it's
something
like
this,
you
know
this
is
a
this
might
look
like.
It
was
something
put
together
by
people
over
a
weekend
or
something
like
that.
But
there
are
companies
that
are
producing
very
high
quality,
durable,
long-lasting
experiences
like
this
that
feel
almost
like.
They
could
be
in
the
woods
or
something
like
that.
You
know,
depending
on
your
context,
so
nature
play-based
could
could
go.
You
know
to
very
contemporary
looking
sort
of
structures.
A
These
all
happen
to
be
manufactured
by
the
way
by
a
company
called
company,
there's,
obviously
a
lot
of
different
manufacturers
that
you
could
use,
but
I
think
that
one
of
the
things
that
we
would
advocate
is
you
do
sort
of
pick
one
one
representative
and
one
company.
You
know
it
tends
to
make
things
easier
as
you
need
to
replace
parts,
and
you
know
work
with
somebody
to
get
upgrades
and
things
like
that.
These
these
happen
to
be
compound,
a
theme
of
some
kind.
A
I
I
O
So
one
thing
that
I've
been
talking
to
carla
about
since
she's
gotten
on
the
parks.
We
came
from
a
really
good
park
system
in
hamilton
county.
So
all
right
tell
the
mayor
when
you're
gonna
dream
dream
big,
when
you're
gonna
look
for
grants,
look
for
big
ones.
So
what
I'm
hearing
a
lot
of
you
saying
and
I'm
hoping
to
kind
of
say
this
is
how
we
feel
about
things
we're
very
active
grandparents.
O
P
O
O
Your
list,
you
get
a
little
talented,
paddy
park
sticker
and
you
try
to
make
your
way.
Some
are
nature
and
some
are
arts
and
some
are
music,
and
so
you
kind
of
do
that.
So
that's
what
I
keep
hoping
for
the
parks
department
is.
I
love
that
they
are
incorporating
piccolo,
because
I
live
with
the
pickleball
master.
P
O
O
O
I
want
to
try
to
convey
is
maybe
look
at
multi-generational
parts.
How
can
we
draw
people
who
their
grandkids
are
in
from
out
of
town?
You
know
and
they
want
to
do
things
with
them,
not
watch
them.
You
know,
and
I've
been
pushing
a
lot
of
stuff.
Harlow's
got
a
lot
of
text
about
a
lot
of
pictures
and
things
that
are
out
there.
Just
you
know
dream
big.
O
J
O
Our
draw
that's
why
people
come
this
weekend.
It
was
packed
of
people
just
walking
on
a
riverwalk.
They
love
the
riverwalk
lots
of
towns.
Don't
have
that
so
that
bicentennial
area
I
keep
saying
to
the
madison
music
movement.
Listen,
there's
play
toys
that
are
music,
that
we
could
put
down
there
and
that
would
be
a
draw
and
I
don't
need
to
tell
you
all
my
big
things
been
opened
in
the
restrooms
and
cleaning
them.
Q
So
thank
you
for
bringing
that
up
everything
that
the
that
goes
into
those
senior
dances.
You
know
everything
that
you
guys
might
have
to
pay
for
that
goes
directly
back
into
your
senior
fund,
so
putting
in
the
different
amenities
that
we've
been
putting
in
making
the
small
upgrades
to
the
senior
center.
Q
Q
F
I
know
the
city
wanted
us
to
check
the
basement
of
the
old
kingstoners
hospital,
but
that
is
no
place
for
a
bank.
It's
also
bad
parking,
the
second
busiest
street
in
madison
and
at
night
down
there
and
seniors.
That
would
be
a
disaster
that
that
had
happened
and
also
you
all
want
our
money
to
stay
in
town.
What
if
we
decide
to
take
our
money
out
of
town
and
do
our
shopping
out
of
that?
You
can
really
miss
the
secrets
of
your
money.
Q
Q
We
know
that
that's
what
everybody's
familiar
with
we
have
no
plans
on
on
changing
that
and
that's
something
we
enjoy
doing
is
providing
those
dances
down
there
and
having
that
for
for
our
senior
community.
So
there
won't
be
much
moving
and
just
you
know
the
the
festivals
that
come
in,
we
like
to
be
accommodating
to
those
folks
as
well,
which
is
why
we,
we
reserve
our
our
parks
and
our
gym
for
that.
Q
L
L
Well,
it's
still
in
I
mean
here's.
The
lady
talking
about
accessible
parks
for
seniors
that
is
so
inaccessible
right
parking
is
atrocious.
It's
difficult
downtown
even
like
tonight.
We've
walked
a
block
and
a
half.
You
know
for
the
seniors.
It
is
just
impossible
why?
Why
do
we
continue
to
keep
that
building.
D
D
D
L
H
H
But
with
some
improvement
behind,
so
people
can
come
in
the
back
door
easily.
That
would
help.
I
know
this
morning
trying
to
park
in
the
handicapped
place.
The
water
was
at
least
three
inches
deep,
so
it
was
not
accessible,
even
though
there
was
a
handicapped
spot
there.
That
obviously,
is
beyond
the
park
ability
to
fix,
but
I
think
there
is
there's
not
much
marketing
they're
playing
cool.
They
could
do
some
exercise
things
there.
H
H
I'm
glad
we've
got
the
senior
dances
going
again
but,
as
the
other
lady
said
about
multi-generational
for
way
too
many
years,
the
park
board
is
focused
only
on
sports
for
kids
and
activities
for
multi-generational
is
much
more
important.
So
I
hope,
with
the
new
park
board
that
we
see
more
of
that,
so
that.
A
So
anyone
who
is
applying
for
a
two
dnr
for
approval
of
a
five-year
master
plan
has
to
has
to
contemplate
these
questions,
so
we
don't
necessarily
think
that
we're
getting
answers
to
these
tonight
but
they're
things
that
we
wanted
to
you
know
share
with
the
parks
board
share
with
you
and
if
you
see
some
or
have
some
thoughts
about
some
of
the
questions
that
you
see
here.
In
addition
to
the
things
you
shared
tonight,
you
know
certainly
let
let
matt
know
the
parks
board.
A
Some
of
them
a
little
bit
wordy
what
are
some
actions
that
have
been
taken
in
the
last
five
years
to
address
ecological
improvements
within
the
parks
and
what
improvements
can
be
made
in
the
next
five
years.
So
again,
that's
that's
a
question
that
really
is
for
the
city
to
answer
the
parks
board
to
answer
and
think
about
more
than
anything,
have
there
been
any
significant
ecology
or
climate
related
challenges?
You
know
so
some
communities
that
are
applying
for
approval
of
these
plans,
maybe
they've
been
hit
by
a
tornado
or
maybe
they've,
experienced
significant
flooding.
A
What
major
amenities
in
the
parks
are
reaching
the
end
of
their
life
cycle
and
is
their
funding
identified
for
the
replacement
so
we're
you
know
going
into
different
parks,
we're
looking
at
the
age
of
equipment
and
things
like
that
or
things
that
aren't
there.
You
know
bathrooms
have
been
mentioned
a
couple
times
tonight,
for
example,
do
parks
with
historical
assets
have
special
maintenance
and
upkeep
costs
associated
you
know.
Certainly,
madison
is
a
place
where
a
huge
amount
of
the
culture
of
the
community
is
revolves
around
its
history,
so
there
may
be.
A
There
may
be
some
parks
that
you
know
have
assets
that
we
want
to
that.
We
want
to
dedicate
special
funding
to
or
think
about
in
a
particular
way.
How
can
parks
play
a
role
in
reversing
recent
population
decline?
Again
these
are
all
standard,
dnr
questions,
and
so
you
know,
investing
in
the
quality
of
life
is,
is
one
way
to
draw
people
to
communities
and
make
them
sticky.
You
know
make
them
make
it
so
that
people
stick
around
and
don't
leave
and
go
somewhere
else.
How
can
equitable
access
be
improved?
A
H
H
I
G
I
just
have
a
comment.
One
thing
to
consider
was
brought
up
years
ago
when,
when
some
discussion
was
talked
about
redoing
some
things
or
a
master
plan,
I
see
you
mentioned
splash
parks,
but
one
thing
that
I
think
other
communities
have
and
have
done
a
good
job
with
is
more
of
a
water
park,
a
splash
park
just
the
draw
that
it
brings
to
you
know
us
leaving
town
to
go
to
other
places,
but
I
think
we
have
some
great
land
to
take
advantage
of
that,
and
then
you
mentioned
this
earlier
about
hiring
more
people.
G
G
K
A
R
R
R
I
don't
care
if
it's
doing
children,
theater
or
improv
for
adults
where
you
don't
have
to
go
and
I'm
not
trying
to
take
away
from
like
the
red
bicycle
or
anything
like
that.
I
don't
mean
that,
but
we
need
to
have
more
areas
where
people
can
showcase
art,
students,
teachers,
I'm
planning
on
doing
a
field
trip
with
my
kids
from
tremble
and
coming
and
painting
some
of
the
buildings
here
for
spring
and
then
going
to
the
broadway
fountain
and
they
can
draw
it
and
having
the
downtowner.
R
J
R
Everything
this
was
culture
shock,
but
I
don't
want
them
leaving
and
I
don't
want
to
see
drugs
taking
over
our
parks,
so
people
can't
go.
I
have
six
grandchildren
ranging
from
six
months
to
15
and
they
live
an
hour
away.
I
want
them
when
they
come.
We
can
go,
do
things
and
be
proud
to
be
here
and
we
want
to
be
here,
and
I
agree
with
everyone
that
spoke
tonight.
I
am
a
senior
citizen.
R
H
R
And
through
the
parks,
I
don't
care.
If
you
have
open
air
art
shows
when
you
chalk
on
the
sidewalk,
it
washes
away
with
the
rain.
We
could
do
things
like
that.
That
doesn't
cost
a
lot,
but
brings
memories
to
the
kids
and
to
the
adults
and
also
builds
a
community,
and
the
visual
arts
always
gets
kicked
out
pretty
much.
It's
always
the
music
and
I'm
not
trying
to
be
mean.
I
I
enjoy
going
to
music
in
the
park.
I
do
it
most
years,
but
I
just
would
like
to
see
a
little
bit
more
people.
E
N
Thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
give
a
brief
update
about
the
crystal
beach
project.
That's
currently
under
construction
they're,
moving
pretty
quickly
through
the
process.
They've
got
all
the
first
floor
and
second
floor
demo
and
they've
actually
started
rebuilding
the
walls
on
the
interior.
So
all
new
layout,
it's
exciting
to
see
that
progress.
N
Q
Hello
board:
I
just
wanted
to
update
you
guys
on
the
facilities
we've
been
talking
about
the
past
couple
of
meetings.
We've
now
had
two
different
fencing
companies
give
us
quotes
for
kiwanis
park.
Both
were
a
little
bit
out
of
the
budget
that
we
planned,
but
the
second
one
that
we
got.
I
definitely
feel
much
more
comfortable
moving
forward
with
that
one.
Q
Q
The
renovations
to
the
fields
at
rucker
sports,
complex,
are
going
well
fields.
As
we
talk
about
fields,
three
four
and
five
are
all
going
to
be
capable
of
having
70
feet
baselines.
The
idea
behind
that
is
to
bring
in
more
travel
tournaments,
whether
it
be
baseball
or
softball,
and
ultimately,
the
sports
tourism
in
madison.
Q
So
programming
update,
we
wrapped
up
our
2022
girls,
basketball
season
last
thursday
from
a
spectator's
standpoint,
it
was
pretty
awesome
to
see
the
improvement
that
both
teams
had
as
they
went
on
throughout
the
program,
and
they
you
could
tell
that
they
were
all
having
fun
and
though
we
didn't
get
the
registration
numbers
that
we
liked.
I
would
still
deem
that
program
a
success
because
we
were
able
to
you
know
positively
affect
the
well-being
of
those
those
youth
athletes.
Q
The
2022
boys
basketball
season
for
the
parks
department
is
set
to
end
this
thursday
at
6
p.m.
We
will
have
our
our
semifinal
game,
leading
up
to
the
championship
at
seven
o'clock.
Again
all
of
those
those
athletes.
You
can
tell
the
progression
from
week,
one
to
now.
It's
it's
pretty
awesome
to
see
and
they're
visibly
showing
on
their
faces
that
they're
enjoying
our
programs,
so
that
that
is
great
to
see.
Q
We
have
opened
up
registration
for
youth,
baseball,
softball
and
t-ball
for
baseball
and
softball.
We
will
have
a
first
and
second
grade
age
group,
a
third
and
fourth
grade
age
group
and
a
fifth
and
sixth
grade
age
group.
T-Ball
is
open
for
all
boys
and
girls
ages.
Three
through
five,
we
have
finalized
a
spring
schedule
with
the
continental,
amateur
baseball
association
or
known
as
caba
rucker
sports
complex
will
be
the
host
to
seven
tournaments
throughout
the
spring
and
we
will
negotiate
a
summer
and
fall
contract
with
them
later.
Q
But
cabba
is
a
great
organization
that
sets
their
prices
and
schedules
with
the
families.
The
youth
athletes
in
mind,
they're,
traditionally
much
less
expensive
than
than
most
travel
baseball
organizations.
So
we
feel,
like
you,
know,
we're
the
perfect
place
to
promote
that.
This
is
a
great
opportunity
for
for
outsiders
to
see
the
facilities
we
have
in
madison
and
a
great
chance
for
the
sport
tourism
of
our
community.
Q
While
we're
still
on
our
seniors,
we
will
have
three
programs
in
the
next
coming
months
that
are,
we
are
encouraging
our
senior
community
to
sign
up
for
those
include
bird
watching
water,
aerobics
and
our
walking
and
running
program.
Yes,
we
will
still
have
our
pickleball
running,
but
these
are
three
new
ones
that
we'd
like
to
introduce
to
our
senior
community
and
our
adults
and
youth.
It
will
be
all
inclusive
for
all,
so
we
will
be.
We
will
be
getting
those
out
and
open
in
the
next
month.
Q
We
were,
we
didn't,
offer
it
last
year,
so
it
was,
I
mean,
that's
just
kind
of
our
baseline
right
now
I
can
say
from
years
past
I'd
say
we
were
probably
about
probably
about
two
teams.
There
were
probably
two
more
teams,
probably
in
let's
say
2010.
There
were
probably
a
total
of
four
or
five
teams
so
from
then.
Q
G
Q
D
One
thing
I
wanted
to
hit
on
that
chad
is
discussing.
There
was
with
our
youth
baseball
softball
t-ball.
We
katy
do
some
research
for
us.
We
have
not
offered
t-ball
since
2001,
so
we're
very
excited
to
bring
that
back
to
our
parks
department
and
for
our
overall
community
looking
forward
to
getting
that
going
again
what
we've
got
going
on
currently
so
with
our
city
campground.
We
did
about
nine
thousand
dollars
here
in
the
month
of
february,
bringing
our
year
to
date
to
about
62
000..
D
D
For
sunrise
golf
course:
we've
done
about
37
000
in
revenue
here,
for
this
month
season,
pass-wise
we've
done
60
total
passes
and
then
with
our
grow.
We
are
currently
open,
seven
to
three
breakfast
and
lunch
essentially
wednesday
through
sunday,
and
we're
getting
a
lot
a
lot
of
positive
feedback,
reviews
and
stuff
from
jordan
and
that
grow
right
now
we're
doing
an
excellent
job.
D
D
See
in
front
of
you
board,
I
believe,
will
be
your
the
overall
operational
analysis
for
2021,
so
you
guys
have
seen
these
numbers
in
some
capacity
over
the
past
few
months.
What
we
were
waiting
on
to
finalize,
we
did
an
audit
of
our
insurance
and
our
property
liability
for
the
entire
city
specifically
for
the
park,
so
that
we
could
hone
in
on
all
these
numbers
a
little
bit
more
accurately.
D
D
Our
salaries
to
our
total
revenue
in
2020,
our
overall
salaries,
was
125
of
our
overall
revenue
in
2020,
whereas
in
2021
that
was
only
90
and
that's
been
one
from
overall
increasing
our
revenue,
but
also
our
overhead
management
has
been
much
more.
I
guess
in
depth,
and
we've
really
tried
to
take
hold
of
everything
that
we
have
going
on
for
our
expenses.
D
D
E
B
A
D
Sure
our
timing
is
good
with
that,
because
that's
very
weather,
dependent
and
brandon
and
his
team
doing
a
good
job
with
just
the
overall
staffing,
so
looking
at
it
in
2020
our
overall
loss.
There
was
just
over
just
shy
of
three
hundred
and
eleven
thousand
dollars.
That's
something
that
we
have
not
been
bashful
about.
D
I
can
confidently
say
this
is
the
first
time
in
the
parks
department's
history
that
they've
been
this
in-depth
and
elaborate
with
capturing
every
single
dollar
where
it
went
to,
and
so
what
we
were
able
to
do
in
2021
was
we
were
able
to
reduce
that
53
percent
to
be
145
205,
and
although
that
is
off
the
market,
where
we
wanted
53
in
one
year,
we're
not
mad
about
that
whatsoever.
You've
got
to
remember
that
we
only
brought
in
golf
now
g1
and
roger
for
less
than
half
a
year.
D
We
only
had
concessions,
the
overall
business
of
that,
including
our
three-way
liquor,
license
for
less
than
half
the
year.
We've
only
had
a
website
for
a
few
months
now
the
ability
to
book
those
online
tee
times
for
just
a
few
months,
and
then
we
haven't
even
begun
doing
our
different
leads
and
corporate
outings
and
stuff.
That's
also
going
to
incentivize
the
corporate.
D
That's
kind
of
leading
into
everything
we've
discussed
with
the
master
plan
and
the
trajectory
that
we've
been
on
a
facility,
like
sunrise,
we're
treating
a
little
differently
than
maybe
our
neighborhood
parks.
We
feel
sunrise
should
sustain
itself
that
it
should
not
be
taking
away
from
our
neighborhood
park
should
not
be
leading
those
drives
where
we
cannot
afford
to
prepare
to
renovate
to
make
these
capital
improvements.
D
So
we've
been
trying
to
make
the
investment
into
sunrise
into
the
pro
shop
as
an
event
space,
creating
more
sources
of
revenue
between
our
corporate
sponsorships
through
liberalizing
the
conceptions
out
of
the
business
trying
to
incentivize
the
league
play
incentivize
people
to
come
out
and
get
more
volume
on
the
course.
So
our
goal
here
is
the
same
as
it
has
been
and
that's
getting
all
of
our
major
facilities
to
be
physically
responsible
for
themselves,
campground
crystal
beach,
sunrise
and
rubber
sports
complex.
So
this
is.
D
It's
just
there's
been
one
nagging
part
there
that
seems
to
not
want
to
stay
stable
for
us,
but
we
have
gotten
that
all
fixed.
So
that's
fully
operational
with
the
brown
gym
currently
or
our
chiller
has
gone
out.
That
was
in
december,
been
waiting
on
a
couple.
Different
quotes
to
get
the
pricing
for
that.
Since
that
is
such
an
old
unit,
it's
a
very
specialized
part
that
we
have
to
get
ordered
for.
J
D
D
The
last
thing
I
have
for
you
is:
we
have
opened
up
our
staffing,
so
all
seasonal
applications
are
live
throughout
the
parks
department.
We've
got
these
on
the
city's
website
and
we've
got
the
links
and
everything
on
our
social
media
platforms,
but
for
crystal
beach.
Looking
for
manager,
assistant
manager,
lifeguards
concessions,
front
desk
for
rucker,
we're
looking
for
officials,
concessions,
score
keepers,
general
maintenance
and
then
sunrise.
We
were
looking
for
general
maintenance,
cart
personnel,
people
to
work
at
a
pro
shop
and
then
in
a
grill
with
jordan.
D
One
thing
that
I
mentioned
with
our
grill,
while
we're
only
open
wednesday
to
sunday
right
now,
is
really
just
because
of
personnel.
We
just
have
jordan
there
banning
the
ship
by
himself.
So
as
soon
as
we
can
get
someone
else
in
there,
that's
making
the
same
quality
food
that
he
is
and
can
balance
out
the
hours
we
can
expand
the
hours
all
of
those
are
open
and
then
the
last
thing
for
city
hall
itself
with
the
parks
department,
with
the
help
of
hannah
fagan
we've
opened
up
a
summer
internship
opportunity.
D
D
This
will
be
kind
of
a
hybrid,
we'll
do
have
someone
that
will
help
out
chad
9
on
the
evening
work
stuff
so
that
he
doesn't
have
to
be
out
until
10
pm
each
and
every
night,
but
someone
that
can
engage
with
the
community,
be
there
with
the
coaches,
the
kids
help
out
and
then
also
with
our
marketing
side,
because
we
do
try
to
make
a
lot
of
posts.
I
have
a
lot
of
flyers
and
everything
out
there,
so
someone
else
that
can
also
help
delegate
that
work.
D
H
H
H
You
can't
spend
that
much
money
and
expect
it
to
be
paid
for
itself.
If
you're,
not
even
open
the
pool
prices,
the
passes
are
exorbitantly
high.
You
should
not
be
having
them
just
for
people
over
65.
There
are
a
lot
of
active
seniors
that
are
55
and
over
I
mean
I
don't
know.
I
I've
asked
these
questions
on
email
and
I
haven't
received
any
answers.
H
I
mean
I
know
for
one
I'm
not
ready
to
shell
out
150
until
I
know
for
sure
the
pool's
going
to
be
open
and
then,
when
I
see
it's
going
to
close
august
7th
when
it
should
be
open
the
full
month
of
august
and
into
september
at
least
labor
day,
I
mean
this
is
crazy.
People
please.
I
know
staffing
is
an
issue,
and
every
year
I
talk
to
you
in
the
spring,
about
broadening
out
who
you're
hiring
having
a
manager
that
can
manage
adult
lifeguards.
H
H
M
D
Both
are
true,
so
we
will
be
putting
that
presentation
from
ratio
on
our
city
website.
We'll
have
links
to
the
parks,
so
you'll
be
able
to
review
that
in
its
whole
and
then
at
the
next
park
board
meeting,
because
that
will
be
two
weeks
or
so
before.
The
final
draft
is
due.
We
will
be
able
to
elaborate
a
little
bit
more
on
some
things.
I'm
unsure
ratio
will
be
here,
but
we
will
be
able
to
provide
that
information
and
speak
about
it.
D
L
C
C
C
All
you
know,
we
know
how
that
that's,
how
life
is
and
another
thing
like
there
are
free
things
out
there
for
the
seniors.
I
don't
know
if
it's
just
not
advertised
as
as
much
or
not,
but
in
the
brown
gym
they
have
exercise
classes
and
they
are
free.
We
played
pickleball
and
we
paid
a
yearly
fee
for
that.
So
and
I
have
no
problem
with
that
for
what
we're
getting,
but
maybe.
C
C
S
S
Q
Peralta
yeah
we've
literally
talked
about
that
this
morning.
We
we,
I
did
some
research
on
robert
mulch.
If
you
can
find
a
if
we've
found
safe
alternatives,
that's
kind
of
the
direction
you
want
to
go,
it's
easier
on
maintenance
and
it's
a
safer
kit
where
to
fall
down.
It's
a
much
safer
thing
to
fall
down
on
than
mulch
or
rocks,
or
something
along
those
lines.
S
S
If
I
don't
have
enough
chalk
down,
there
run
back
up
the
hill
with
that
big
trailer
load.
The
trap
right,
because
you
can't
leave
it
down
here,
gotta,
take
it
all
the
way
back
up
come
back
down.
No
water
gets
dusty
senior
citizens.
Nowhere
pool
during
their
revokings
track.
Breaking
quiets
got
to
run
a
water
hose
all
the
way
from
brown
gym.
Just
try
to
keep
the
dust
down
cava.
Q
Q
B
B
We
have
filled
up
all
the
appropriate
paperwork,
we're
assuming
because
it's
a
government
agency
it
just
takes
a
little
longer
than
most,
but
I
did
want
you
to
know
that
we
are
working
on
that
so
that
whether
it's
pickleball
walking
all
of
that
would
be
free.
If
you
meet
their
criteria,
which
is
14
visits
a
month,
you
know,
obviously
they
want
consistency
because
they
think,
if
you're
exercising
consistently
it
helps
with
their
bills
too,
because
you're
healthier
overall.
B
But
I
just
wanted
to
know
that
we
we've
done
what
we
can
do
on
our
end
and
we're
trying
to
be
a
little
pushy,
but
the
government
pushes
back
so
we
just
don't
have
any
results
to
tell
you
yet,
and
I
just
really
want
you
guys
to
know
that
we
are
we're
hearing
what
you're
saying
and
we're
taking
it
to
heart
and
my
my
wheels
are
turning
so
I
just
want
you
know.
I
hear
you
thank
you
and
I'm
going
to
try
to
do
something
for
you.
Okay,
don't
give.
