MINUTES FROM AUGUST 10, 2015
Special meeting to welcome and provide information for new members
Present were Glenn Sproul, Chair, Jennifer Kochman, Vice-Chair, and Maggie
Leugers, Director of Recreation and Parks, to welcome new members George
Donovan, Mary Olmsted, Mike Simoneau and Naa Aku Shika Addo
Glenn called the meeting to order at 5:00 P.M.
Each person introduced him/herself and gave a little background to his/her interest
in recreation and this committee.
Maggie gave a PowerPoint presentation designed to provide an overview of current
Recreation and Parks program offerings, staff, facilities and challenges.
We talked some about the meeting for September. The date will have to be changed
to accommodate Kevin Dorn, who has a compelling City Council commitment on the
21st; Glenn will send a note to everyone on the committee asking if we can meet
instead on the 14th. Business for that meeting is expected to include election of
officers, designating liaisons to monitor other city bodies, a discussion of the Capital
Improvements Program with Project Manager Ilona Blanchard, and discussion of a
proposal for improvements to the Baycrest neighborhood park with City Manager
Kevin Dorn.
The meeting was adjourned at 6:30 P.M.
Respectfully submitted, Glenn Sproul
