Naming of Park Request: Connie Edmonston, Parks and Recreation Director Parks and Recreation Staff is proposing to rename Ozark View Park, located at 560 Rupple Road, directly behind the Fayetteville Boys and Girls Club. Staff requests is to rename the park Dale D. Clark Park. On February 1, 1970, Dale Clark began work as the Director of Parks and Recreation in Fayetteville and the Director of the Fayetteville Boys Club. When he began his position, Fayetteville had three parks, Wilson, Walker and Greathouse Parks. Clark immediately began working to increase facilities, programs and funding for the Parks Division and Boys Club. Clark established a long term contract with the Fayetteville Public Schools allowing residents to utilize school facilities during after school hours. Clark also established the Fayetteville Park Land Dedication Ordinance that ensures Fayetteville Residents will continue to have funding and park land. Another major accomplishment was the passing of a Hotel Motel and Restaurant Tax in Fayetteville where visitors are paying to subsidize our Parks and Recreation Network. These are three of the many accomplishments that have become the foundation of our Parks and Recreation System. Staff Recommendation: The Park Naming Policy states "...PRAB will discuss the recommendations at their monthly meeting and will leave the issue on the table until the next scheduled meeting. This one month duration will allow time for any public comment on the proposed names." If PRAB so desires and the public input remains positive, it is the recommendation of Parks and Recreation Staff to change the park name from Ozark View to Dale D. Clark Park. PRAB Motion: 7.
