BUSINESS:
I. ARCHERY RANGE
David Murphy of the Black Hawk Archery Club stated they
would le relocated by the November 1 deadline Clark set.
A new location has not been found. The suggestions by
PRAB were Combs, Lake Sequoyah, or Lake Wilson. The area
should be able to accommodate over 100 people and 50
parking places during meets. Murphy stated the two
principal reasons for the archery club are to provide a
controlled environment and to educate.
II. GREEN SPACE
Green Meadows Addition
Harry Gray, NW Engineers and Owners Dr. and Mrs. Floyd
Harris were present to discuss the possibility
of a land dedication. PRAB felt that a
neighborhood park was needed in the area. The
park would be approximately 3/4 miles from
Davis Park. PRAB discussed the financial and
maintenance aspects of establishing a new
park. PRAB also talked about linking the land
to Davis Park. Because the status of Davis
Park development is not known at this point,
PRAB decided to wait until the new master plan
of the Parks Division is established.

Discussion: PRAB stated that the additional land by the

further beautification to the entry way and
would allow expansion of the parking area.
Both the Keating Estates and Gulley Park will
need water. The Parks Division offered to pay
$1,500 for the water line to come from Green
Space Funds. Winwood Baptist Church
negotiated for the City to pay $2,000. Clark
reported the Parks counter offer to accept the
land dedication plus $1,500 (from the Green
Space Funds) to assist in building the water
line to the Park and subdivision.
III. GREEN SPACE ORDINANCE REVISION DISCUSSION
Connie Edmonston reported that she had
discussed omitting the four park districts
from the Green Space Ordinance with Jerry
Rose, Ernie Jacks and Larry Woods. They all
concurred that the courts would only allow for
the green space funds to be spent in the park
district that they were collected in order to
serve the subdivision's needs. Further
discussion and recommendations of the Green
Space Ordinance will be made at the next PRAB
meeting.
IV. WILSON PARK CITY POOL REPORT
Connie Edmonston reported that the City Pool's attendance
in 1990 set records. The total attendance was
39,588 (average daily 400), compared to 25,528
(average daily 280)last year. Income was
substantially higher at $63,661 compared to
$46,065 collected in the 1989 season. There
was over 1,000 participants enrolled in the
PRAB Page 4
swimming lesson program. Attendance and revenues were
high because of the Youth Center Indoor Pool and the
Springdale Municipal Pool being closed for the summer.
(See attached monthly report, year end report,
yearly comparison report)
V STATE SOFTBALL SURVEY RESULTS
Edmonston reported that on August 24, 25, and
26, Lake Fayetteville Softball Complex hosted
the State 35 Years & Older Mens Softball
Tournament. Twenty-two teams entered the
tournament with nineteen teams being out of
town. The survey concluded that 589 players
and spectators were attracted to Fayetteville
for the State Tournament. Total revenues
spent by the teams for the weekend tournament
totalled $26,562 (Lodging $10,355;
Meals/beverages $11,818; Gasoline $4,389)
This survey did not include cost of recreation
and merchandise purchased in Fayetteville.
This would bring in a substantial amount of
revenues into the City in addition to the
estimated $26,562 spent for the State Softball
Tournament.
