Lasko, Jr., Co-Chairperson <br /> <br /> John Dailey, Director, Community Life Services <br />Mark Mahoney, Councilman <br /> <br /> Ted DiSalvo, Commissioner <br /> Norm Baxter, Member <br /> Julie Nader, Member <br /> Chris Scarl, Member <br /> <br />Visitors: Jennifer Rudolph <br />Anna Kanis <br /> Ed Garrity, NOHC <br /> <br /> <br />Mr. Groden opened the meeting with the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance by all after roll call was <br />taken. <br /> <br />VISITORS’ OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS COMMISSION <br /> <br />Welcome <br /> <br />Mr. Groden welcomed everyone to the Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting of April 7, 2008 <br />and welcomed the visitors. At that time, he opened the floor to comments from any of the visitors. <br />The visitors reported that they had no comments at this time. <br /> <br />APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF MARCH 3, 2008 <br /> <br />Mr. Groden clarified that, in the discussion about the Skate Park, at the bottom of Page 3 of the <br />Minutes, he wondered if it was correct where it said, “If you skate at your own risk unsupervised, then <br />you’re under the umbrella of the city.” After that, it says, “If it’s supervised, you’re liable.” Wouldn’t <br />it be the other way around? Mr. Dailey said that the City is liable if, almost like swimming and <br />lifeguard, we would be liable for the person in the pool, we’d be liable for someone getting hurt in the <br />skate park. Without there being no supervision…Mr. Groden said that if it’s skate at your own risk, <br />then it’s skate at your own risk. Mr. Groden then said he thought it was incorrect to say if you’re <br />skating at your own risk, then you’re under the umbrella of the city. That’s not correct, right? The <br />consensus was that it was NOT under the umbrella of the city and was duly noted in the Minutes. <br />That was the only comment that Mr. Groden had about the Minutes and asked if anyone wanted to <br />make a Motion to approve the Minutes of March 3, 2008, with that revision. Upon Motion moved, <br />seconded and approved unanimously, the Minutes were approved. <br /> <br />
