ITEM TABLED UNTIL SEPTEMBER REGULAR MEETING.
2. Mt. Sequoyah Gardens Park Proposal: Ron Austin, City Alderman Ward 1
Alderman Ron Austin proposed raising $15,000-$20,000 from friends and family of Ray Adams to give to
the Parks Fund to be used as needed toward construction of an overlook structure at Mt. Sequoyah Gardens
Park. In return the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board would name the overlook structure the "Ray Adams
Memorial Overlook" or similar with his name being included.
Mr. Austin introduced Mr. Adams' widow, Edythe Adams, Andrew Hall, and Jamie Jones. Ray Adams was
a florist in Fayetteville for fifty years. He served on the Fayetteville School Board, was active in many civic
activities, and was a deacon of Fayetteville's First Baptist Church. Mr. Adams was an avid gardener and
made a difference in the lives and the environment of those around him.
Mr. Austin presented a timetable with goals he wished to achieve. Mr. Austin said he would like to make the
donations tax deductible, and said the group did not want to dictate what was constructed at the site. Ms.
Thiel said the neighborhood has designed an overlook which will likely exceed $15,000 which will be
presented to the Facilities Committee at a later date. Staff supports the proposal.
3. Facilities Committee Meeting:
A Facilities Committee meeting will be scheduled at a later date.

PRAB Regular Meeting
4. Ozark Volleyball Club Proposal: Clem Johnson
Clem Johnson, a twenty year resident of Fayetteville and active participant of the Ozark Volleyball Club,
proposed lighting two of the sand volleyball courts at Veterans Memorial Park. Ozark Volleyball Club
constructed two of the courts at the park, and the group has maintained a membership of 60-70 participants
for many years. Ozark Volleyball Club is an Adopt -A -Park sponsor of Veterans Memorial Park.
During summer months, the sand is too hot on which to play volleyball until later hours. The addition of
lights to these two courts would greatly increase usage by extending the time and number of games in the City
league and extending seasonal usage. Ozark Volleyball Club proposes holding tournaments to raise money
to purchase eight light fixtures at cost from Upchurch Electric for $2,772. Ozarks Electric will offer four poles
at cost for $133 each and donate two employees and a truck for one day. Ozarks would install the poles, the
fixtures, and the conduit and wiring to a switch box. Mr. Johnson requests the City purchase the poles and
provide wiring.
Mr. Johnson will obtain costs estimates on electrical wiring and pursue additional donations for the project.
Staff presented a plan to add an additional gate at Veterans Memorial Park and signage for additional security
measures when the park is opened extended hours.
Ms. Edmonston reported that a budget adjustment request will be presented to City Council for the Street
Division to re -pave the entrance to Veterans Memorial Park.
5. Park Video: Walker Park
Walker Park was the second park added to the Fayetteville Parks system in 1949 and is located in south
Fayetteville between 15" and 13" streets. Walker Park contains three parcels of land totaling about 66 acres
purchased at different time periods to expand this popular park. Walker Park is known as the home of
"Baseball for Youth" and a place to play soccer, ultimate frisbee, horseshoes, handbalUracquetball, tennis,
for picnicking, or a place to have family or social gatherings by utilizing the large pavilion and playgrounds.
The first ten acre parcel of land was purchased by the Boy's Club from Mrs. Henry Walker in 1949. The
Boy's Club sold the park to the City in 1955 for $10,000. In 1960, Henry Walker donated additional land
in the lot to the City and thus the park was named Walker Park.
The Fayetteville Jaycees began developing the park into a baseball complex for youth in 1960-1965. The City
underwrote a loan of $12,000 to the Little League, Incorporated for construction of the fields. In 1968, an
agreement was made with the Sherman Lollar Little League to operate the City's baseball program at Walker
Park. Two tennis courts were built in 1975. The tennis courts and basketball court are included in the
proposed Parks Capital Improvement Program to be renovated in the year 2000.
The five baseball diamonds were completely renovated in 1978 through 1981 for $40,000 from Community
Development Block Grant Funds, Department of Housing and Urban Development, Heritage Conservation
and Recreation, U.S. Department of the Interior, and Arkansas Department of Local Services. A monument

was installed at the entry gate on 13i° street honoring the project. Field #6 was built in 1987 and 1988 by
donations received from the Little League Board of Directors in the amount of $5,400. In 1988, the City
Parks Division built the dugout for Field #6, installed a handicapped drinking fountain by the picnic area,
installed a tot playground, and playground apparatus with assistance from Community Development Funds.
The playgrounds were replaced in 1999 to meet playground standards with a 50/50 match grant from
Arkansas Parks and Tourism for a total project cost of $60,000. A recycled rubberized cushioned play surface
system was installed underneath the equipment to maximize safety for falls and to minimize maintenance. The
sand volleyball court was installed in 1989, with assistance from Community Development Block Grant
Funds. The Sherman Lollar Baseball Association once again donated $12,000 to light Field #6 in 1990 to
meet the needs of the increased number of participants and to expand the program with five -year-olds T -ball
league.
A walk bridge was installed to connect the parking lot on the west side across the creek with the baseball
facility in 1993. Again the Baseball Board Association assisted with a $3,000 donation and Greenspace funds
of $1,593 were utilized for the bridge. The west parking lot was built by the Street Division on the far west
side of the park, and nineteen horseshoe pits were built jointly by the City and N.W.A. Horseshoe Pitchers
Association.
With the continued growth of the baseball program to 900 participants, Field # 7 for T -ball was built utilizing
Sales Tax funds of $37,852 in 1993. Lights were installed the following year Concrete restrooms were
designed and built in 1994, located by the baseball facility to serve the west and north portion of Walker
Parks. Field #8, which is the newest field, was constructed across 13th street in Walker Park North in 1995,
fora total of $51,735.
Swepco donated $3,800 in light poles and lights along Block Street in 1997 for additional security at night.
In 1998, the City Street Division overlaid asphalt on the baseball service road and the area surrounding the
concession stand to minimize dust. With assistance from the Bambino Association, 3 batting cages were
constructed in 1998, which has been a positive addition for the coaches to teach baseball skills to the
participants.
In 1999, at the request of the Bambino Baseball Association, the Parks and Recreation Division daily
prepares the 8 baseball fields. An additional 2 man crew was hired to perform these duties at a professional
level. In 1999, the parking lot on the west side of the baseball field was asphalted by the City Street Division.
A new 100 space parking lot north of the baseball complex was completed. A 36 foot pavilion is currently
being constructed in the middle of the park to replace the old pavilion.
Walker Park North
The second parcel of property containing 10.64 acres was purchased in 1980 with City and Community
Development Block Grant Funds in the amount of $45,000. Dr. Albert Einert was contracted to create a
master plan of the park. John Reed donated an additional 1.63 acres to the park in 1985. In 1988, .86 acres
was donated by Bryan and Sara Walker. Then, three soccer fields were constructed, sprigged, and irrigation
installed by 1991, with assistance from the Soccer Association, Park Land Ordinance Funds, and City Funds.
In 1995. one of the soccer fields was developed into baseball field # 8 to accommodate the growing number
of participants in the baseball program and because of the construction of the soccer complex on Lewis

Avenue that served the soccer participants.
In 1999, trees were planted by Neighborwoods in the north part of the park and a BMX track is to be
completed.
Walker Park Expansion
In 1992, the City purchased 34 acres in the amount of $200,000 for land to the east of Walker North on 13th
Street to expand the activities at Walker Park. Bob Callans and Associates designed the development of the
park. Several public meetings to solicit input from the public, soccer and baseball organizations were held
before a Master Plan was approved by the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, and the City Council.
A Senior Citizens Complex is currently being designed to be located in the north portion of this park utilizing
Sales Tax and HMR funding totaling $560,000. It is certain that the development of Walker Park would not
have been possible without the community spirit of the baseball program, soccer association, horseshoe club,
charitable donations of land from local citizens, Swepco, Community Development Block Grant Funds,
Arkansas Parks and Tourism, Block Grant Funds, the City of Fayetteville, and the many park volunteers.
Together utilizing funds and volunteer hours, Walker Park has been developed into a highly utilized park that
meets a variety of recreational needs for the community to enjoy.
6. Other Business:
Mr. Colwell reported two frisbee golf baskets at Gulley Park were located near park benches which raises
safety concems. There has also been complaints received of fence damage from patrons climbing over the
fence.

SPECIAL MEETING
AUGUST 26, 1999
A special Parks and Recreation Advisory Board meeting was held at Greathouse Park located at 1710
S. Price Avenue in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The meeting was called to order by Chairman Thiel at
12:00 noon.
Members Present:
Staff Present:
Guests Present:
Media Present:

Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Chairwoman Brenda Thiel said there was a viable concern for
the number of trees required to remove in order to meet Federal Emergency Management Agency
requirements to install a 75 -foot prefabricated bridge. Major concerns associated with the needs for
a bridge include providing a safe access, the Toss of an easement on the property which was once Levi
Strauss, and by widening the channel future flooding could be eased. It was a consensus of the group
that closing the park was not a consideration. Parks and Recreation Superintendent Connie
Edmonston said parks are for trees, and they provide many benefits. However, Greathouse Park is
the only park in the immediate area, and the neighborhood deserved a park with a safe access to it.
Furthermore, Ms. Edmonston said the City of Fayetteville must adhere to federal regulations.
David Todd, an engineer with CEI Engineering, explained the scope of the project by walking those
in attendance through the course ofthe channelization. Channelization is required to not raise the base
flood level. City Engineer, Paul Libertini, said during flooding water could get as much as eight feet
above the park land. When asked whether an environmental impact study had been completed to see
how the creek would be affected, Mr. Todd replied that only a hydraulic analysis required by FEMA
had been completed to see the effects of flooding. The contractor will be required to take soil erosion
precautions, and the banks will be sodded. Andrea Fournet, chairwoman of the group Friends for
Fayetteville, said the project would change the entire ecosystem. Parks and Recreation Advisory
Board member Gail Eads said some of the existing trees would eventually be lost due to the natural
flow of the creek current and cited other areas as examples.
August 26, 1999 / 1
The possibilities of alternatives were discussed including low-water bridges, higher versus lower
bridges, and other entry points. Mr. Todd said the project is the most cost-effective way to meet the
most objectives; the least number of trees will be removed while meeting federal guidelines including
compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Opponents of the project suggested condemning
property for an easement. Parks and Recreation Advisory Board member Tom Stockland said
condemning the Levi Straus property was not viable due to the fact that there is public access. Terry
Gulley, Parks and Recreation Turf and Facility Coordinator, said condemnation was generally
considered in cases involving 'land lock'. Opponents charged the Parks and Recreation Advisory
Board and City of Fayetteville of rushing into the project. Ms. Thiel said the Parks and Recreation
Advisory Board had been looking at the project for two years.
Ms. Edmonston read the group a letter submitted by an 11 -year-old neighborhood child requesting
the installation of a new bridge. Ms Fournet said she doubted people realized the magnitude of the
impact and probably envisioned a foot bridge. She suggested temporarily closing the park until other
alternatives could be reached. Parks and Recreation Advisory Board member Bob Shoulders said
although tree removal was unsettling, he did not want to sacrifice a child because of unsafe access.
MOTION:
Mr. Stockland moved to approve the plan as proposed by staff and proceed with the Greathouse
Bridge project.
Mr. Shoulders seconded the motion.
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board member Wade Colwell asked if an exemption of FEMA
guidelines had been applied. Kim Rogers, Parks and Recreation Operations Coordinator, said Tim
Conklin, City Planner, had plead the case but a waiver of regulations cannot be obtained. Mr. Todd
asked if FEMA had granted an exemption for a negative flood impact would the City still want to go
ahead with the project while negatively impacting the surrounding homes? City staff said no.
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board member O.E. Luttrell said this was a project which included
a sacrifice no one liked. However, it was one sacifice to save a whole unit.
The motion was approved 6-0-0.
The meeting adjourned at 1:05 p.m.

2000 BUDGET PROPOSAL SPECIAL MEETING
AUGUST 30, 1999
A special Parks and Recreation Advisory Board meeting was held at the Parks and Recreation
Division located at 1455 Happy Hollow Road in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The purpose of the meeting
was for staff to present the 2000 proposed budget and answer questions relating to the budget
proposal. The lunch meeting began at 12:00 noon.
Members Present: Ackerman, Alexander, Colwell, Luttrell, Shoulders, Thiel

Laura Kellams, Arkansas Democrat Gazette
Matt Wagner, Northwest Arkansas Times
Jill Rohrbach, Morning News
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Chairwoman Brenda Thiel introduced City of Fayetteville
Public Works Director, Charlie Venable and Budget Coordinator, Steve Davis. Mr. Davis distributed
an annual budget flow chart which illustrates the courses taken throughout preparation. The Annual
Budget and Work Program is a fiscal plan which presents the services which will be provided to the
community and the funds needed to perform these services. The proposed budget will be presented
to the Mayor in November. The Mayor will then present the proposed budget to City Council for
consideration. The target budget is established by removing capital expenditures and applying an
inflator (five and one-half percent this year). Prior to establishing the inflator, Budget and Research
examines revenue trends (four percent growth is fairly conservative). No inflator is applied to any
other category than personnel services. Target overruns, new personnel requests, and capital items
were briefly explained. Mr. Davis said the general fund is not growing as rapidly as other funds. There
is more competition for the general fund from public safety entities such as police and fire.
Turf and Facility Coordinator, Terry Gulley, presented new personnel requests. With the increase in
operations and facilities, additional programming and maintenance must be addressed. The Gary
Hampton Softball Complex has a significant impact on the 2000 budget. With the introduction of a
new facility and more programming, additional personnel is required for operations. Parks and
Recreation Development Coordinator, Eric Schuldt, presented a projected budget for athletics for
2000. The Hampton Complex will host additional programs, additional tournaments, and provide an
overflow for adult games. A new set of working procedures and responsibilities for the Parks and
Recreation Division and the Fayetteville Youth Center was presented. The Parks and Recreation
August 30, 1999 / 1
Division is committed to being an active player in the programs provided at facilities for which it is
responsible. The goal is to define and improve the current working relationship to ensure more
efficient operations. Program Coordinator, David Wright, presented an overview of twelve programs
for 2000, eight of which will be new. Programs include youth softball, youth tennis lessons, adult
softball, adult flag football, and youth/adult soccer. Parks and Recreation Superintendent, Connie
Edmonston, presented the proposed 2000 operating budgets for the Administration, Swimming Pool,
Athletic/Recreation Transfers, Lake Maintenance, Parks Maintenance, and Parks Development and
Maintenance programs. Motor pool and equipment requests and prioritized target overruns were also
discussed.
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board member, Bill Ackerman, suggested subtle advertising plans for
the programs and events. Ms. Edmonston said program brochures for athletics and swimming pool
were being budgeted for 2000.
Ms. Thiel said it was crucial to provide funding for trees and landscaping for Greathouse Park. Ms.
Edmonston said the Landscape Maintenance Specialist, Lisa Paschal, was developing a plan to
determine the needs and costs for the park. Landscape Administrator, Kim Hesse, has indicated she
will help fund trees.
The group briefly discussed contract limitations regarding cell telephones and two-way radio capacity.
Mr. Davis said request for qualifications had been let on the radio system, and the contract for cell
phones would be re -bid in September.
A SPECIAL PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD MEETING WAS
SCHEDULED FOR WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8,1999 AT 5:15 P.M. to visit Gary Brandon
Subdivision located east of Highway 265, north of Zion Road; Silverthome Subdivision located south

Developer is providing a park area with a swimming pool and other
park amenities.
Park staff recommends a land dedication. This property is located
immediately east of the Foster addition. The growth in this area has so
much potential. We would recommend land that would adjoin adjacent
subdivisions to increase the park size in order to serve this large
growing area.
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board members met Gary Brandon, Brian Moore, and Michele
Harrington at the site of the proposed development. This is a large growth area with potential in the
future to acquire additional park land. Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Members had noted
during a May 17, 1999 meeting regarding the Stonewood development, that future park land dedication
in this area needed to be reviewed closely. The proposed park land for Gary Brandon Subdivision is
less than the required, but the developer has agreed to contribute money in lieu for the difference.
MOTION:
Mr. Luttrell moved to accept the proposed acreage and money in lieu for the balance of the required
land dedication.
Mr. Shoulders seconded the motion.

contains over 40 acres. This subdivision requires only 1.48 acres
There are a large number of one acre lots in this subdivision with no
potential for expansion to the south and little to the west. It is in close
proximity to Farmington, 2,500 feet to the west and 1,000 feet to the
south.
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board members met John Deweese, Brian Moore, and Michele
Harrington at the site of the proposed development. Rezoning is scheduled to be addressed at the
September 21, 1999 City Council meeting.
MOTION:
Mr. Luttrell moved to accept money in lieu of land dedication due to the extreme position of the
property and the large size of lots to be developed and recommend a waiver of the Park Land
Ordinance from City Council.
Mr. Colwell seconded the motion.
The motion was approved 5-0-0.
The meeting adjoumed at 7:20 p.m.

REQUEST
TO: CONNIE EDMONSTON and PARKS AND RECREATION
ADVISORY BOARD
FROM: Ron Austin
DATE: July 12, 1999
RE: Request to address the Board about the naming of the
overlook structure to be built in Sequoyah Gardens in
honor of Ray Adams.
I propose to raise $15,000-$20,000 from friends and family of Ray
Adams (deceased) to give to the Parks Fund to be used as needed and in return
the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board would name the overlook structure
the "Ray Adams Memorial Overlook" or something similar with his name being a
part.
I have secured permission from his widow, Edythe, and two of his
children, a son and a daughter, to raise the funds. Each of them will
contribute toward the project. They have expressed deep appreciation for the
potential honor of their husband and father.
Ray Adams was a florist in Fayetteville for fifty years. He served on
the Fayetteville School board for about twenty years and was president a
number of those. He was active in many civic activities and was an active
deacon of Fayetteville's First Baptist Church until his accidental death at the
age of eighty-nine. He was a long time member of the Rotary Club and served
as District Governor. His family once owned property on which now are located
the V.A. Hospital and Woodland Jr. High School. He is remembered by many of
the "old-timers' as having surprised them with a bouquet of beautiful flowers
on occasion. He loved gardening, raising flowers and growing plants. When he
died, he hod a number of "projects" laid out to complete. He was always
working to make a difference in the lives and the ehvironment of those around
him. I can think of no better memorial than to link his name with such a
beautiful park as the Sequoyah Gardens.
I propose no timetable for the projects completion, no plans for the
building of the structure, no agenda at all except to provide some funding with
which the Parks Department can continue making a difference in the lives of
the citizens of Fayetteville in the name of RAY ADAMS.

Sept. 3 1999
Fayetteville Parks and Recreation Board
113 W. Mountain St.
Fayetteville, AR 72701
To Those of the Fayetteville Parks and Recreation Board
The University Heights Neighborhood Association requests that a pedestrian bridge be constucted for
access from Palmer Street to Hotz Park. The current access to the park is difficult and there has been a
concerted effort on behalf of the Neighborhood Association and its members to rectify the situation.
We are asking the Board permission to design and construct , at the expense of the University Heights
Neighborhood Association, a pedestrian bridge for Hotz Park. There will be minimal impact on the
existing terrain and no trees or shrubberies will need to be removed or altered in the construction of
this bridge.
Part of the impetus for this undertaking has to do with a woman, Elizabeth (Liz) Coleman, who lost
her life in November 1997 to a careless driver while logging very near her home. Liz was involved in
some of the early planning b- the renovation of Hotz Park, to which we are all very proud. The
Neighborhood Association would like to dedicate the bridge to the memory of Liz Coleman and the
bridge will be sited on axis with the Coleman residence, located directly accross Palmer Street from
Hotz Park, where the widower Jeff Ash and their son still reside.
The Neighborhood Association has already received donations for for the constructon of the bridge
and a fund raising campaign will get underway shortly. All equipment, labor and some materials will
be donated by the neighborhood association. The materials for the bridge are expected to run
between $2,500.00 and $3,500.00, but a more detialed budget could be produced for the beard if
necessary.

Re: BRIDGEPORT SUBDIVISION
Dear Sirs:
We are hereby requesting that we be placed on the agenda for the next P.R.A.B. meeting scheduled
for Septemberl3t to discuss the park dedication and money in lieu of land for phases 4, 5 and 6 of
Bridgeport Subdivision.
The Developer has donated a total of 3.73 acres for phases 1 thru 3, and wishes to donate an
additional 0.69 acres, and pay the difference in lieu of a land donation.
There will be a total of 219 residential lots in all six phases of Bridgeport Subdivision (1 POA lot).
A total of 4.42 acres will have been dedicated for park property, if the 0.69 acres is acceptable to the
Board. We will be lacking 1.055 acres of property to fulfill the Board's requirements. We are
therefore asking that you accept $15,825.00 for the 42.2 unaccounted for lots.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Michael B. Marie, P.L.S.

RECREATION IN FAYETTEVILLE
A New Set of Working Procedures and Responsibilities for the
Parks and Recreation Division and the Youth Center.
In order to define and improve the current working relationship between the Fayetteville Youth Center
(FYC) and the Fayetteville Parks and Recreation Division, it is recommended that a new set of operating
procedures be established. Currently, both agencies are working under many verbal and assumed
agreements. These arrangements lead to poor communication, indirect accountability and to feelings of
apprehension. Increased communication and a new set of operating procedures will assist with the
working relationship and will benefit both agencies.
The goal of the FYC and the Parks and Recreation Division is to work in cooperation to enhance the
recreation facilities and programs offered in the City of Fayetteville. The FYC and the Parks and
Recreation Division must become partners in meeting the needs of the citizens of Fayetteville. The Parks
and Recreation Division believes this would best be accomplished by defining and streamlining our
responsibilities and procedures. The City of Fayetteville is recommending the merging of facility and
program management for all recreation offerings. This merging will provide administrative
accountability for all services provided to the citizens.
The following is a detailed set of new operating procedures and responsibilities for the FYC and the
Fayetteville Parks and Recreation Division. It is recommended that this new alignment go into effect
January I, 2000. This new alignment will benefit the operation of both the FYC and the Parks and
Recreation Division. All facility or service agreements between the Parks and Recreation Division,
Public School System, and the FYC should have written documentation or contracts. In addition to the
new operating procedures listed below, it is recommended that representatives from both agencies meet a
minimum of two times per year to discuss any programming or facility issues effecting the recreational
offerings to the citizens.
FACILITY MANAGEMENT
Fayetteville Youth Center: The FYC will be responsible for working with the Fayetteville School
System to provide the staffing, programming and maintenance for the following facilities: Asbell
Gymnasium, Holcomb Gymnasium, Vandergriff Gymnasium, Washington Gymnasium and the Youth
Center
Fayetteville Parks and Recreation: The Fayetteville Parks and Recreation Division will be responsible
for providing the staffing, programming, and maintenance for the fifty-four city and school parks,
including the following facilities which are utilized for sport programming: Asbell Soccer/Softball
Complex, Babe Ruth Baseball Complex, Gary Hampton Softball Complex, Lewis St. Soccer Complex,
Walker Baseball/Soccer Complex, and the Wilson Softball Field. In addition, the Parks and Recreation
Division will be responsible for working with the Fayetteville School System and PTA organizations to
provide enhancements to school playgrounds.
