JA is also working with the Elk River Park Commission and the Associations' at determining field <br /> needs as Elk River has some development pending. <br /> The recreation office also assists them with their program registration /advertising. <br /> - Oak Knoll Maintenance agreement: Oak Knoll athletic complex was developed in cooperation by <br /> ISD 728 and the city of Elk River. Maintenance responsibilities have been unclear and have lead to <br /> some frustration. JA has been asked to work with Mike Hanlon ( ISD Athletic Director) at establishing <br /> a formal agreement related to maintenance. M. Hanlon is also pursuing construction of some batting <br /> cages and has asked for support from the City of Elk River. JA is working w/ M. Hanlon and Elk River <br /> on this matter. <br /> - Public Relations: Community Recreation staff have been paying close attention to all PR <br /> opportunities.

Some work still remains wi <br /> computer set-up, etc. <br /> - Technoloay Update: Over the past several months CE, ECFE and Recreation have been <br /> investigating new software to enhance our efficiency. Recently a decision was made to upgrade our <br /> current system with the newest addition of the same program ( Panorama ). Our long range intention <br /> is to move towards a system that will enable 24 hour phone registration. The supposed ( state of the <br /> art )program that we looked at that accomplished this and several other features relative to our <br /> operation has not performed ( according to those communities that we researched ). This software <br /> provider is now aware of the needed improvements. WE will monitor these changes. <br /> - Misc.
