Elk REQUEST FOR ACTION <br /> River <br /> TO ITEM NUMBER <br /> Parks and Recreation Commission 13. <br /> AGENDA SECTION MEETING DATE PREPARED BY <br /> Work Session September 10, 2012 Michael Hecker,Parks and Recreation <br /> Director <br /> ITEM DESCRIPTION REVIEWED BY <br /> Parks and Facilities Naming Policy Cal Portner, City Administrator <br /> REVIEWED BY <br /> ACTION REQUESTED <br /> Develop a Naming Policy to establish a consistent approach for the official naming of parks and <br /> recreational facilities. <br /> BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION <br /> It was recently brought to the attention of some City Council Members and staff that community <br /> members have an interest in the naming of park facilities. Staff researched the current City policies and <br /> found that no official policy exists. It was also found that an unofficial practice has existed for the past <br /> ten+years to not name parks on behalf of individuals. <br /> Due to the absence of an official policy, staff did some benchmarking of municipalities'best practices in <br /> the naming of facilities. Based on this research, staff has drafted a sample parks and facilities naming <br /> policy for the Commission to review and eventually make recommendations to City Council. <br /> ATTACHMENTS <br /> • Parks and Facilities Naming Policy Draft <br /> Action Motion by Second by Vote <br /> Follow Up <br /> P0I [ 0E0 Ti <br /> NATURE <br />
