Project Status Report
Pool:
Mr.
Stuber informed the Commission that he has met with three swim teams that use
the pool and after talking with them realized scheduling will be an issue that
will need to be addressed.
Mr.
Stuber has proposed that the fee for a pool membership be $50 per person from
May to October. The Commission had some
concerns about charging per person or per group or team. They also had some concerns about resident
and nonresident fees for the pool membership.
Mr. Stuber said he will continue to look into the fees to see what will
be best for all concerned.
Mr.
Stuber expressed his concerns about two leaks and a broken skimmer to the
Commission. Mr. Stuber stated that Mr.
Fesler is working on cleaning the area out and painting. The pumps have been inspected and seem to be
working fine.
Tennis Courts:
Mr.
Stuber informed the Commission that he met with the tennis league that plays at
the City of Goose Creek tennis courts next to the Golf course. He found out that they pay $175 to the Golf
Course to play on the courts.
Mr.
Stuber said he would meet with the Tennis League again after the fee structure
has been approved. Mr. Glass asked how
the Recreation Department will advertise to the public that they have access to
the pool and tennis courts. Mr. Stuber
stated that the quarterly newsletter will be a good source for advertisement.
New Business
Parks Report:
Mr.
Stuber informed the Commission that the circle parking area at the Casey Center
has some pot holes in it that have gotten quite big. He has Mr. Fesler working on patching these
areas.
Mr.
Fesler is also working on a PARD grant for Dogwood Park. Mr. Glass asked about the trailer at Dogwood
Park. Mr. Stuber said he has offered to
have someone else live there but has had no takers. He will have to speak with the owner to
remove it if no one wants to live there.
