INFORMATION <br /> 117218 .- 728 Area Recreation <br /> RECREATION 1230 School Street <br /> Elk River,MN 55330 <br /> January 21, 1994 <br /> To: Pat Klaers <br /> Fr: Jeff Asfahl '�p" <br /> Re: Field Use Guidelines <br /> Attached you will find the proposed guidelines for use of playfields within the City of Elk River. The <br /> need for these guidelines are the result of increased use of the fields and circumstances that have <br /> occurred and are subject to take place again unless some guidelines and procedures are <br /> implemented. <br /> The need for such a document was identified and discussed at great lengths by and between myself <br /> and officials from both the City and School District personnel.ln September of 1993, I took the <br /> opportunity to call a meeting with the following representation: Charlie Blesener, Roger Hansen, Phil <br /> Hals, and Mike Hanlon.At this meeting, several areas of need were identified, and the process <br /> began to design a document that allowed for some systematic approach to manage the use and <br /> aaintenance of the fields. It is likely that the guidelines will need adjustments after it has been put in <br /> practice. The guidelines will be reviewed and adjusted as needed on an annual basis. <br /> The guidelines as presented to you have been presented to the leadership of; Youth Baseball , Youth <br /> Soccer, Youth Softball, and the Elk River Park Commission. Each organization has had the <br /> opportunity to comment and as a result this document should come as no surprise to them upon <br /> implementation. I am hopeful that this document will be endorsed by the Elk River City Council and <br /> the School Board. <br /> The 728 Area Recreation Board has not reviewed the document but according to the technical <br /> operation of the Board, policies such as these guidelines remain the jurisdiction of the property <br /> owner.This document could easily be adopted by another entity, and would allow for consistency <br /> throughout the 728 area in regard to the use of fields. <br /> I will appreciate your taking the opportunity to introduce these guidelines to the City Council for <br /> comment and support. I will plan to be present at 6:00 pm Monday January 24th to answer any <br /> questions in regard to the proposed guidelines. <br /> l ` <br /> pita,ea C_ � C c n I/,;?4/)91--/ <br /> • <br />
