RecreationandParkCommission | 2011-10-13 | 5 | a Recreation Services Manager who will report to the Assistant City Manager and the Executive Assistant position will be reclassified at a lower position of Office Assistant. Director Lillard will be retiring at the end of this year, but will come back on a contractual basis to finish the fiscal year (June 2012). During January through June the City Manager's Office will decide how they want to permanently handle the reorganization (e.g., hire from outside, internal promotion, etc.). Doing the reorganization this way allowed ARPD to keep programs and/or not eliminate another lower level position. Chair Restagno asked if it will be difficult to hire a Recreation Services Manager when they will be doing director type of work. Director Lillard stated that he did not think so and that a lot of other cities have gone to this type of organized government. This was the same structure that ARPD had been working under several years ago. It has been done before. This will not affect frontline services at all. There should not be any more program cuts this fiscal year. Chair Restagno asked how much will be saved. Director Lillard stated that the cut was approximately $300,000. It affected programs in the least way possible. Vice Chair Brown asked why the Recreation Supervisor was not a Manager position. Director Lillard stated that we have looked at the position to upgrade but it will be very difficult with this budget. Director Lillard stated that the first City Budget Hearings will be held on October 25th The City is still $3 million short. After public input is received staff will determine the budget savings. C. Request from St. Joseph Notre Dame High School (SJND) to Install a Scoreboard at the Alameda Point Multipurpose Field - (Discussion/Action Item) Director Lillard stated that St. Joseph Notre Dame High School (SJND) has submitted a request to install a solar power scoreboard at the Alameda Point Multipurpose Field. They also requested a number of other items (e.g., bullpen work, screening, etc.) that were not under a long-term use. This request for a scoreboard is a long-term use which needs the Recreation Commission's approval. It will be a solar scoreboard that SJND purchases and installs. They will sink it into the ground approximately four feet. It will be 10 feet above ground. SJND will absorb all costs and make it available to other user groups. Director Lillard stated that he has communicated to SJND that even if this is approved by the Recreation Commission, SJND will still need to go through the Building & Planning Department process because they will need a foundation permit, etc. They will also have to have engineered drawings; ARPD will help them through the permitting process, etc. Chair Restagno clarified that SJND will be responsible for all maintenance and repair. Vice Chair Brown also added and availability to other groups. Director Lillard stated yes.
