Introduction of Guests: Amy Pemberton
Review minutes from previous meeting: October Minutes were reviewed, Larry Hauder Motioned, Dave Petty
seconded, all were in favor.
Business:
1. River Ranch Park Requirements -Amy Pemberton representing Judd Debore- Presented on phase 2 & 3 of
River Ranch Subdivision. The Committee reviewed the 2001 plat map and 2004 parks and pathways
requirement. Original plan for path was south of smoke jumper base along Mission and connection to the west
with North Valley Rail trail. Amy's proposal is continued separate pathway finished to a gravel surface to finish
connecting both trails, making access to user friendly.
Conditions are listed as: 8ft path gravel graded, cut grass and installation of signage. Dave Petty questioned
where the current path aligns and where they plan to adjust and move the pathway for more separation. Dave
Petty and Kurt Wolf voiced concern about the verbiage in proposal and it will be edited from "Efforts will be
made" Amy will edit and change to "A strong connection will be made crossing River Ranch to Moonridge etc."
Dave made a motion to accept the proposed conditions and recommendation to Council, Dalton Crane
seconded.
2. Master Plan-
Stefanie Bork let the committee know that the Master Plan funding is scheduled for budget year 2021
pending CIP, LOT and Recreation funds. The committee would like a clear directive and had some key core
questions that they would like answered; What do we want in the Master Plan, A list of current and upcoming
projects and a work session on each project to discuss what might be missing and or partially done in the current
plan. Stefanie will send out copies of the Comprehensive Plan and Pathways Plan for committee to review.
3. Recreation Programs-
Kurt and Stefanie gave a brief overview of closed and current programming and events. Donna Bush mentioned
the challenge of gym space and the conflicts of school programming and the number of cancellations taking
place with youth basketball. Additionally, while practice takes place in PLMS multipurpose room several young
children are playing unsupervised while parents play indoor soccer. The committee is curious if there is
opportunity for the Recreation Department to use Elk Creek Baptist Church. Larry referenced the Master Plan
projects and placing this on the top of our priority list. Larry mentioned Pickleball and how that program is
running through our department. Kurt mentioned the possibility of creating two pickleball courts on the south
