FAYETTEVILLE PARKS AND RECREATION
ADVISORY BOARD
Minutes for September 9, 2013
Opening:
The regular meeting of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board was
called to order by Steve Meldrum at 5:30 p.m. in Room 326 at the City
Administration Building at 113 West Mountain Street in Fayetteville,
Arkansas.
Present:
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board members McKnight, Leonard,
Meldrum, Lawson, Proffitt, Paul, Maxwell, and Watson were present.
Lamb was absent Staff members Edmonston, Humphry, Spann,
Jumper, Mihalevich and Thomas were in attendance.
AGENDA:
1. Information on the A & P $3.5 Mill Bond for Regional Park
Development: Kit Williams, City Attorney
Williams will review the information about the bond as well as Act
312 which relates to the manner the City Employees and PRAB can
participate. Please review Act 312 which is in the agenda
attachments so you can clarify any questions you might have.
Williams clarified restrictions for campaign activities by public
servants. There are severe penalties if the restrictions are not
followed. He said that City resources can not be used for
campaigning. If someone is on the clock, they can't say they are for
or against the issue. PRAB members can campaign on their own
time, but no City funds can be used. City staff can not campaign
for the bond issue, but they can create informational material
stating only facts. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board
advises the City Council, so it's okay if they publicly support the
issue as a board to the Council.
Meldrum asked if Parks was going to create an informational sheet.
1
Edmonston said yes.
Meldrum then asked what date the election was going to be held.
Edmonston replied that it was November 12.
Meldrum asked if someone would go over the Regional Park map to
see what is proposed.
Jumper discussed each section of the map.
Edmonston said that five more baseball fields, with everything,
including bleachers, were needed in addition to the already
proposed baseball fields. The cost for the five fields is $3 million.
Doug McKinney, a citizen, asked what the wording on the ballot
would be, so people could vote accordingly.
Edmonston said there will be three questions on the ballot, and the
request is to vote yes for each question.
Maxwell commented that initially, if the first question about the
Town Center didn't pass, then questions two and three can't be
approved. He said that has changed. They aren't linked anymore.
2. Approval of August 5, 2013 PRAB Meeting Minutes
PRAB Motion: Proffitt motioned to accept the minutes as written,
and McKnight seconded it. Motion passed 8-0-0 by voice vote.
3. Tabled from August 5th Meeting:
Trail Naming for Clear Creek and Scull Creek Trails: Matt
Mihalevich, Trails Coordinator
Staff Recommendation: To approve the proposed names of trail.
According to the City's Facility Naming Policy, the item is tabled
until the next PRAB meeting in order to allow for public input. If
approved by PRAB, the naming of the trails will be presented to
City Council for final approval.
PRAB Motion Tabled at August 5 Meeting: To table the naming
of the trails until the September meeting to allow time for public
input according to the Naming Parks and Trails Policy.
Mihalevich said that this was tabled from the August PRAB
meeting for 30 days to allow for public input for the names. He
2
went over the information about the trails and said that the
proposed names are Scull Creek Trail and Clear Creek Trail.
There was no discussion.
PRAB Motion: Meldrum motioned to approve the names Scull
Creek Trail and Clear Creek Trail, and Proffitt seconded it. Motion
passed 8-0-0 by voice vote.
4. Eagle Scout Project Proposal, Lake Fayetteville Environmental
Study Center: David Wolf
In coordination with Park staff and Environmental Study Center
staff, David Wolf will present a proposal to improve and realign a
section of nature trail at Lake Fayetteville as part of his Eagle
Scout Project.
Staff Recommendation: To approve the proposed Eagle Scout
project at Lake Fayetteville Environmental Study Center.
Wolf said he was with Troop 115 at Sequoyah. His project is a
section of the trail around Lake Fayetteville. He said he did a
couple of field trips to the area to see where the problems were
located. There is a part of the trail approximately one half mile in
length that he will widen and border with landscape timbers. He
said the widening will benefit many of the larger classes that use
the trail. There is a 35 to 40 foot long section of trail around a tree
that he will rebuild. He found a manmade trail that he will close off
by disguising the trail. For his project, he will use shovels, drills,
pulaskis, band saws, wheelbarrows, rebar, 8 foot wooden timbers,
and 6 x 6 timbers. The Home Depot donated about $150 worth of
landscape timbers. Wolf is also using leftover timbers from a
previous Eagle Scout project.
Proffitt said that this project will be a great addition. He wanted to
know which section of the trail it would be.
Wolf said it would be in the Springdale zone.
Meldrum added it would be south and east of the Environmental
Center.
PRAB Motion: The motion and second to approve the Eagle Scout
project at the Lake Fayetteville Environmental Study Center was
passed the project 8-0-0 by voice vote.

Jumper said, no, they won't.

FAYETTEVILLE REGIONAL PARK
A place for recreation, restoration and healthy lifestyles
PHASE 1 WITH BOND FUNDING
A,
N
Conceptual Master Plan
Fayetteville's Regional Park will provide
invaluable space for people of all ages
and abilities to enjoy and connect with
nature through active and passive
recreational opportunities. The park,
once complete, will include:
Picnic areas
Soccer fields
Pavilions
Baseball fields
Playgrounds
Tennis courts
Nature trails
Softball fields
Great lawn
Water features
Sand volleyball
Amphitheatre
Basketball
Multi-purpose fields
Dog park
Disc golf
The Regional Park is located west of 1-540 on Cato Springs Rd. The
City of Fayetteville currently has $4.5M for development of the Soccer
Complex and Great Lawn. The proposed $3.5M bond would help
provide at least three of the proposed Baseball Fields along with a
large pavilion and playground for the Great Lawn. The park will serve
over 3,000 participants and their families from youth programs alone.
The Fayetteville Regional Park will have something for everyone!
The Special Bond Election will be held on November 12, 2013.
