Recreation Commission Meeting <br />October 4, 2004 <br /> <br /> <br />Barton/Bradley Water Line <br /> <br />The Barton/Bradley Water Line is still a work in progress but, basically, all that needs done is a <br />water pressure test, which should be done within the next week or so. <br /> <br />Rink Main Door Replacement <br /> <br />The rink main door replacement is eighty five percent fabricated. The maintenance men have been <br />tied up with some projects in the parks at the present time because they are on a limited window <br />to get those projects done because of the weather. Within the next few weeks the main frame <br />door should be completed. <br /> <br />Clague Walk Path <br /> <br />The Clague walk path is scheduled to begin installation the second week of October. The <br />demolition and prep work are completed. It’s only about thirty percent installed. Mr. DiSalvo <br />did not know what was taking the workers so long. It’s perfect, but it’s taking forever. It’s a flat <br />rate job, not hourly. <br /> <br />Baseball Diamond Improvements <br /> <br />Field 1 and Field 5 baseball diamond improvements are going to begin this week, probably <br />Wednesday. Field 1 will be shortened to a little league field, so the clay must be removed, <br />dumped on Field 5, and placed with fill dirt. Then there will be topsoil placed, along with seed, <br />fertilizer and straw. Field 1 will be a Little League/Hot Stove Field; Field 5 will be converted into <br />a larger diamond for the JV and Freshman baseball teams. It’s a matter of coordinating between <br />the Service Department for equipment and the Recreation Department maintenance men, who will <br />be doing the work. This will be a day’s project. Mr. Jesse said that the most of the fill dirt was <br />provided by ODOT from I-480. Field 3 will have two trees removed. Fields 1 and 5 must be <br />done this week to germinate the ground before a frost. <br /> <br />Marking Trees <br /> <br />Ms. Jones asked Mr. DiSalvo about the Cub Scouts or Eagle Scouts marking the trees with <br />plaques. Mr. DiSalvo said that Chris (Wetmore) was handling this matter. The Commissioner <br />will talk to him to find out its present status. There is a group interested in doing this project; Mr. <br />DiSalvo was to follow through. Mr. Jesse said that a man named Butchko (sp?) was referred to <br />make the plaques. <br /> <br />Baldwin Wallace College <br /> <br />Mr. DiSalvo is working with Baldwin Wallace College to establish a program with its sports and <br />recreation management majors to offer a 10 and 12 credit internship (between two and three <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />
