7. Kessler Mountain Presentation: Frank Sharp
See attached Kessler Mountain Information.
Frank Sharp was the presenter. He said that anyone who would like to hike in the
area is welcome. Ozark Off -Road Cyclists has built 8 miles on Kessler Mountain.
All the land owners in the area allow hikers if they respect the land.
Approximately 387 acres out of 900 acres are very rough. He feels the land is
threatened. He would like the main purpose of the area to be an outdoor
classroom. He would like a foundation to buy the 387 acres. He is preparing a
report to the City of Fayetteville, the University of Arkansas, and the National
Heritage. He has already gotten support from the Urban Forestry Advisory Board.
He would like a letter of support from PRAB. He wants to see everyone use this
area.
Paul asked for his contact information.
Sharp said it was kesslergreenways(cOgtc.com. He said his cell number is 957-
4069.
Paul said he did not understand what the threat to Kessler was.
Sharp said Chambers Bank might sell the land to a developer.
Paul wanted to know if this was City property.
Edmonston said that the City already has its land. Chambers honored the
agreement.
Paul asked if Chambers was selling the yellow areas on the map.
Edmonston said yes, every area except the green areas.
Meldrum wanted to know if the U of A purchased the land, would Parks still get
the million dollars.
Edmonston said that as the land sold, the money would be given.
Lawson said the big cost will be the water, sewer, and streets in the Regional
Park. He said they will have to be purchased by the City.
Watson wanted to know what the cost of the park will be.
Jumper said she didn't bring it, but she would get it to him.
Paul asked if the yellow portion was already planned development.
Jumper said the whole site was approved as PZD.
3
Watson asked if it was commercial or residential.
Jumper said it was both.
Watson said his big concern is that all the property is intended for the Regional
Park. The infrastructure has to be paid for. He asked how much the infrastructure
would cost.
Edmonston asked that he keep in mind that the land was donated to us.
Meldrum said the Regional Park numbers need to be reviewed.
Edmonston asked if he wanted that done during orientation.
Meldrum said yes.
Paul asked if we title it reserve, would it be possible to change it to develop one
day.
Sharp said he thought it should be put in a conservation easement.
Paul said the land borders the Regional Park. If the park is outgrown, we would
have to go elsewhere, or expand into the conservation easement.
Sharp said the conservation easement could be written however someone wanted
it written.
Paul said he wanted to be cautious about doing anything permanent.
Meldrum wanted to know whether the decision would be the U of A's if they
purchased it.
Sharp said that he sees it as a joint decision.
Watson wanted to know if it had to stay as a reserve, or if it could change.
Sharp said the City and U of A would have to agree, but it could say whatever
was decided.
Paul asked if there was another way to protect the land.
Edmonston said that a grant must pertain to outdoor recreation. A land conversion
is one way.
Sharp said that Mount Sequoyah is a conservation easement.
4
Maxwell said the City owns that area.
Meldrum said maybe at orientation PRAB can look at the facts and figures, and
get back with Frank.
Aubrey Shepherd, a guest, said he used to live on that site. He said the site Sharp
is talking about is like the Buffalo River. He said it would be hard to build on the
land. He said we would be protecting it. He suggested for PRAB to go see it from
the south end of the property. He asked that serious attention be given to Sharp's
request.
8. Selection of PRAB Orientation Date:
Please bring your calendar so we can select a date for the annual PRAB
Orientation on January 7`h. We need to allow a time frame of approximately 2
hours prior to our February 4`h PRAB monthly meeting or select another day in
January. PRAB is required to have a member serve on the following committees:
Edmonton said that the orientation will be a full two hours.
The date chosen was Thursday, January 24, at 5:30 pm. The place will be
determined, and an email will be sent out to everyone.
Active Transportation Advisory Committee: Meets quarterly on the second
Wednesday at 5:30 pm, City Hall Room 326
Botanical Gardens of the Ozarks Board of Directors: Meets third Tuesday of
every month at 6 pm at Lake Fayetteville Botanical Garden of the Ozarks.
9. Other Business:
Edmonston said that Transportation has been busy building that last mile of section
on the very last 4.58 acres donated south of that property (Lake Fayetteville). She said
the first phases were built with a 10 foot width. However, the last section from the
Veterans Memorial Park to the future parking lot at Botanical Gardens will be 12 feet
wide.
Meldrum asked if it would be concrete or asphalt.
Edmonston said it would be asphalt.
Maxwell asked if that was so it could be driven on.
Edmonston said it was because it was so busy. There are big safety issues. The
section will be used a lot.
Meldrum asked what the target completion date would be.
Edmonston said it would probably be early spring.
5
Meldrum said a lot of people ask about it. He also asked if there were any plans for
David Lashley restroom facilities.
Edmonston said neighborhood parks have no facilities, such as restrooms, water
fountains, or any other large type facilities.
Meldrum read the upcoming events.
10. Adjournment
Meeting adjourned at 6:25 pm.

Re: New Horizons formerly Highlands at Rupple
Dear Parks Department,
Real Practices in requesting to donate MONEY IN LIEU of parkland. This has been the general
agreement with Parks Department on previous submittals. Due to the close proximity of the existing school
and sports complex it makes more sense to donate land rather than creating another pocket park.
New Horizons Plat had been submitted in both 2006 & 2010. That 2006 submittal was originally
approved for a 40 acre development. Due to the rough economy the original plat was never built. Real
Practices are now re -submitting a new plat with only 18 acres and are looking to divide the construction into
2 phases. The first phase will be 15 lots as shown, with the final 56 being part of phase 2 construction.
Although the construction will be phased, the concept has many of the same features that Real Practices
agreed upon in the first approval such as stub -outs for future street connections, street widths, street
improvements, etc.
Real Practices understands that the fees will be due prior to signing of Final Plat for each phase.
Let me know if you any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
'(:2 Knight

2012 SUMMARY OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Fayetteville Parks and Recreation is comprised of 63 park properties
consisting of 3,922 acres and 40.4 miles of soft and hard surface trails.
Many acres are preserved areas which protect our natural resources,
urban forest, and wildlife habitat for our citizens. In addition, many acres
make up our trail corridors. The City of Fayetteville Parks and Recreation
Department is very proud of the quality services provided to our citizens
though our parks, trails, programs, and special events. These all
contribute to our quality of life that makes Fayetteville a great place to
live, work, and play. A summary of accomplishments for 2012 are
provided below.
PARK PLANNING AND URBAN FORESTRY
Parks staff installed an interpretive sign which illustrates and describes
the natural trails, flora and wildlife at Mount Sequoyah Woods. The sign
was made possible by a partnership between the City of Fayetteville, the
Fayetteville Natural Heritage Association, the University Of Arkansas
Division Of Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service and the Beaver
Watershed Alliance. Funding for the sign was provided by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency and the Arkansas Natural Resources
Commission through a USEPA Section 319(h) grant.
Mt. Sequoyah Woods Sign Ribbon Cutting
Parks and Recreation partnered with the University of Arkansas Division
of Agriculture - Cooperative Extension Service to provide two new
educational signs along Niokaska and Scull Creeks. The signs illustrate
the functions and importance of riparian zones. One sign is located
within Gulley Park on the northwest side of Niokaska Creek near the
playgrounds. The other sign is located along Scull Creek Trail near the
2
low water bridge on Jocelyn Lane west of Gregg Avenue. Funding for the
signs was provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the
Arkansas Natural Resources Commission through a USEPA Section
319(h) grant.
Two bronze plaques have been installed in Gulley Park on each end of
the creek. The 2008-2009 class of 4th graders at Root Elementary
participated in a competition to name the previously unnamed tributary
to Mud Creek that flows through Gulley Park. The students read a
persuasive argument for why their name should be chosen and the 4th
graders voted for "Niokaska Creek" which is an Osage Tribal term that
means "Little Ones (or children) of the Middle Waters." The plaques
explain the meaning of the creek's name and credit the 4th graders of
Root Elementary with naming the creek.
Gordon Long Park and Gulley Park received new swings. New belt
swings, toddler swings, and ADA accessible swings were installed at both
parks.
New Swings at Gordon Long Park
A grant application was submitted to the Arkansas Department of Parks
and Tourism for the development of Mt. Sequoyah Gardens including a
wood and stone overlook structure, ADA accessible parking and access,
and replacement of the asphalt entry drive. Grant awards will be
announced in the spring.
An update was made to chapter 167: Tree Preservation and Protection. It
increased the value of a tree to better represent the current day costs of
establishing a tree.
3
Renovations to the Wilson Park pool were completed, including the
removal of the pool's interior plaster and the deck's surface material,
repairs of cracks within the pool's structure and the surrounding deck,
and replacement of the pool and deck's surfaces.
Wilson Park Pool
New stone and steel entry signs were constructed at White River Park,
Bayyari Park and Lake Fayetteville Park. These signs have been
standardized to be implemented throughout the City to identify parks.
Lake Fayetteville Park Entry Sign
An Urban and Community Forestry Grant was received through the
Arkansas Forestry Commission to make improvements to the City owned
lot north of the Development Services building on Mountain Street.
The Park Land Dedication Formula was reviewed and updated as
required by the ordinance.
4
The Urban Forestry Advisory Board established a landscape award
competition, which was designed to recognize sustainable commercial
and residential landscapes in Fayetteville. In early June, a team of
horticultural and landscape design professionals selected two winners
based on (1) Design and Aesthetics, (2) Preservation of Natural
Environment, (3) Environmental Best Management Practices, and (4)
Attraction to Wildlife.
Residential Landscape Award Winner Cindi Cope
St. Joseph Park was completed. The project included concrete steps and
sidewalks along with a block retaining wall, terraced brick and concrete
seat walls, a park sign, and landscaping.
St. Joseph Park Grand Opening

The Urban Forestry Advisory Board, in conjunction with Urban Forestry
and the Mayor's office, hosted the annual tree give-away on October 13
at the Fayetteville Town Center by the downtown square. Over 600 trees
and shrubs were given to citizens to plant on their property to help
reestablish our City's urban forest.
The Great Tree Giveaway
The Arbor Day Foundation awarded the City its 17th consecutive Tree
City USA Award for Fayetteville's continuing efforts to preserve trees and
promote the benefits of trees.
Four areas of the City received street trees in 2012 through the Tree
Escrow Fund. Approximately 162 trees were planted in street rights-of-
way as part of the Tree Preservation and Protection Ordinance. These
trees over time will reduce storm water peak flows and air pollution,
increase oxygen supply and property values, provide wildlife habitat, and
beautify neighborhoods.
In 2012, the Urban Forestry Services crew pruned 968 trees, removed
400, mulched 35, watered 2,096, and planted 53. There were also 136
stumps removed.
Funded in part by the Arkansas Forestry Commission through a grant
from the USDA Forest Service, the City of Fayetteville participated in an
urban tree canopy (UTC) assessment. The assessment quantified that
within the city limits there was 36% tree canopy coverage. Tree
assessments help cities better understand the benefits that trees provide
to air quality, storm water management, ecosystem balance, and quality
of life benefits. Data gathered through the assessment may be used to
inform UTC goals, prioritize locations for tree planting efforts, establish
6
urban forestry master plans, understand patterns of environmental
justice, and inform sustainability plans. Since 2002, the study revealed
only a loss of 1.5% tree canopy coverage.
Urban Tree Canopy Assessment Workshop
VOLUNTEERS
The programs and events at Fayetteville Parks and Recreation would not
happen without the enthusiastic help from volunteers with various
interests and talents. These volunteers donated 12,211 hours in 2012.
For sports programs, the coaches donated 7,712 hours. Many people
worked through the Adopt -A -Park and Adopt -A -Trail program to
volunteer a total of 3,560 hours. The Parks and Recreation Advisory
Board, as well as the Urban Forestry Advisory Board, and the Yvonne
Richardson Community Center SEFCC Board contributed 302 hours.
The Yvonne Richardson Community Center (YRCC) had volunteers that
donated 309 hours.
Approximately 40 volunteers planted native grasses, shrubs and trees
along the stream restoration project in Sweetbriar Park. The University of
Arkansas Division Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service provided
the plants and pizza for the event.

HORTICULTURE
Square Garden Display
A ribbon cutting ceremony for the Walker Park Historical Mural sign was
held on March 13.
All plots at the Jefferson and Walker Community Gardens were leased for
the 2012 planting season. The garden paths were mulched, a water line
was installed, and the fence and gates were completed at the Walker
Park Community Gardens.
Areas at Wilson Park were renovated by transplanting native trees,
shrubs, perennials and grasses. A native stone bench and walkway were
added, and the areas were seeded with grass.
The Wilson Park nursery was renovated. A hard goods storage area was
created. Old beds and soil were removed to prepare for a covered outdoor
working area and an additional shade facility.
8
There were 35 volunteers that accepted the invitation to attend the
Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon at Walker Park on September 13. The
Volunteer Program provides opportunities for citizens to give back to
their community, as well as be a valuable asset in supporting the
mission of Parks and Recreation. The luncheon is an acknowledgement
from the Parks and Recreation Department to show our gratitude for
their help.
Centerpiece at Volunteer Luncheon
Watering during the summer was high priority to keep the gardens alive.
Kid Crops spring, summer and fall programs had 175 children learning
about planting, growing, and weed maintenance in the gardens. Other
activities included a field trip to the Farmers Market, cooking produce
harvested from the garden, making stepping stones out of cement, and
building a worm casting box.
A cold frame was built at the Mt. Sequoyah greenhouse for a place to
hold the annuals for warmer weather.
There were approximately 5,500 spring bulbs planted that included
tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, and other miscellaneous small bulbs.
PARK MAINTENANCE
The Facilities Maintenance crew installed two donated memorial
benches. The first, donated by the Kennametal Foundation, is located in
Wilson Park behind the baseball field. The second was installed at the
Mt. Sequoyah Gardens.
9
Construction of a new boat ramp and courtesy dock was completed at
Lake Sequoyah.
Lake Sequoyah Boat Ramp 85 Courtesy Dock
Due to the April 2011 flood damage, three docks at Lake Fayetteville had
to be repaired. Parks staff used an air -driven hammer and compressed
air to reset the docks to their proper height. Work will continue at the
Lake Fayetteville Marina and Veterans Park.
New retaining walls at Veterans Park volleyball courts 1 and 2 were
constructed. Timbers constructed of 6 x 6 treated pine were used to form
the main structure of the walls. The area was then backfilled with soil
and covered with sod. The chain link fence surrounding the court was
raised to accommodate the new ground elevation.
Constructing Retaining Walls
The pool and fountain at the Wilson Park Castle received some much
needed repairs. Algae was removed and new wiring for the pump system
was installed. Other additions included new lights, a new fountain head
and a new timer.

The Grounds Maintenance crew converted the 10 -row bleacher sets at
White River and Walker Park Baseball complex to 5 -row bleachers. This
allowed all aluminum bleachers to be placed at each field at Walker Park
except fields 1 and 2. The aluminum bleachers look better and are safer
than the previous steel bleachers. The aluminum bleachers also require
less maintenance compared to the steel bleachers which needed frequent
repainting.
Bleacher Renovation
The Forestry Services crew cleared branches and removed stumps at the
Lake Fayetteville Prairie Restoration site. On March 12, a prescribed
burn was conducted by Chloeta Fire, with Parks crews assisting. After
the burn, any debris that did not burn was moved into large piles to be
burned at a later date.
The access bridge into Greathouse Park received some much needed
repairs. The wooden walkway's retaining rail had dislodged, which
caused loose boards on the bridge. The rusting screws were also
replaced.
All of the twenty-eight playgrounds in the City Parks received safety
inspections in September. These inspections included checking for
proper fall surfacing depths, loose or missing bolts, broken equipment,
and entrapments. Torn shade cloth was repaired or removed, and loose
playground equipment was repaired at Bayyari, Rodney Ryan, and
Harmony Pointe Parks.
11
Graffiti was cleaned up in the Appleby and Fulbright tunnels located on
Scull Creek Trail. Graffiti continues to be a problem, especially in the
trail tunnels. Park Staff removes the graffiti with 24 hours if possible,
and works with the Police Department to try to identify the culprits.
Before
After
Several repairs were performed at the Wilson Park Swimming Pool.
Marble dust and acrylic hardener were used to repair areas on the deck
and pool bottom. New underwater lights were installed on the west end of
the pool, and a new ball valve was installed to the surge pit.
The deteriorating wood and shingles at the Wilson Park softball field
dugouts were replaced.
New electronic timers for the trail lights were installed at Wilson Park to
replace the old mechanical timers.
The 2012 Lights of the Ozarks display was installed All the tree canopies
and the ground cover were enveloped with 400,000 lights, taking
approximately 2,493.75 for Parks Maintenance Staff to install.
RECREATIONAL PROGRAMS
Fayetteville hosted several softball tournaments in 2012. The youth
tournaments included the Pitch for a Cure, FayRo Classic, and the
Summer Slam. Adult softball tournaments included the Arctic Classic,
March Madness, the Worth Gametime Super Series, Tyson Corporate,
and Dudley Thunder Series.
The youth soccer program had 2,748 participants, 139 teams, and 196
volunteer coaches for the 2012 season. Fayetteville has one of the largest
youth recreation soccer programs in the state. The Soccer Kickoff
12

people attending.
First Touch 3 & 4 Years
The adult women's spring soccer season had 80 participants that played
on 7 teams. The Crusader's won the post season tournament.
We Are the Champions!
The youth softball program continued to have impressive growth with
446 participants, compared to 410 players in 2011. The league was
completely restructured with divisions based on age rather than school
grade. In addition, new pitching machines were purchased and used for
the Under 10 girl's league, and the Under 8 girls' league became a coach
pitch league. Under 18 girls' teams also played games against teams from
Rogers.
There were six great concerts held for the Gulley Park concert series. The
variety of artists included The Smart Brothers, LaFuSo, Tim Brantley,
Joe Giles, Matt the Electrician, and ChaseMissy. The total attendance for
13
all six shows was approximately 6,000 fans. A theatrical performance of
Shakespeare's Twelfth Night by Classical Edge Theatre was performed
before the first concert in the series. Rain forced the Matt the Electrician
show to be relocated to the Arkansas Air Museum.

312 participants playing on 24 teams. Fall brought 24 teams and 336
players, for a grand total of 648 players for the year. All available field
space was filled with 48 teams playing in our summer and fall seasons.
Due to participant demand and the success of the inaugural Winter 2012
league, a fall adult volleyball program was also added. The winter league
in January had 6 teams with 70 participants, and the fall league had 10
teams and 104 players. The total number of players for 2012 was 174.
Be Active! Youth Summer Camps offered a wide variety of camps to
appeal to all youth. There were 3 Outdoor Adventure Camps, Outdoor
Advanced Camp (for 12-15 year olds), Drama Camp, Camp Wilson,
Soccer Camp, and Tennis Camp. A total of 505 youth participated in the
eight camps.
