FROM: R�,LPH DAVIS, ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF RECREATION & PARKS
DATE: JANUARY 22, 1991
SUBJECT: PROPOSAL TO RENAME ROOM 4�2 AT BATEMAN HAI.L
�i
Bateman Hall has undergone an extensive face-lifting. Through City Council direction
Bateman Hall has received the following:
i. Installation of new fountains and the repairing of the pools with tile installed.
2. Remodeling of Room l�l with new carpeting, repainting of interior walls and
new plants and pictures added.
3. Remodeling of Room i62 with new carpeting, repainting interior walls and new
plants and pictures added.
4. Remodeling of the V.I.P. room with new carpeting, new drapes, new lighting,
new tables and chairs and new pictures.
5. Repainting of the interior walls of the Auditorium and installation of a new
vinyl floor and stage curtains.
These changes and repairs were sorely needed and have enhanced the appearance of
Bateman tremendously.
The Recreation and Parks Administrative staff feels this is the opportune time to
provide a marketing plan for the facility. But before this can take place, staff
feels there is a need to rename Room ��2 to give the facility unity in having all
of our rooms named. i.e. (Thompson Auditorium, Byork Room)
RECOI�L'�IENDAT I ON :
That the Recreation & Parks Commission recommend to the City Council the r.enaming
of Room ��2.
