Moved by Hamann. seconded by Russell. to aoorove the October 10.2018 minutes as amended. Passed 8-0 (Venzon absent). PUBLIC DISCUSSION None INTRODUCTION OF NEW STAFF MEMBER: Seydell Johnson introduced Brad Barker as the new Superintendent of Recreation replacing Chad Dyson. Barker shared that he is very excited to be a part of the Iowa City Parks & Recreation Department. He is originally from Ames. He has a Masters in Parks and Recreation Administration from the University of Illinois. He started as the Assistant Director of Parks & Recreation in Vinton, Iowa and eventually moved into the Director position. He feels that this position is a great opportunity to further his career while using what he learned in Vinton and expand on that. He is excited about moving back to a college community. RECREATION OUTREACH AND EOUITY: Seydell Johnson reported that at the request of the City Council, the department has been asked to report on ways in which they are currently reaching out to the Community and what attempts are being made to involve a more diverse population in recreation programs in the future. She noted that the department has been using a social equity tool kit that allows staff to see where participants are coming from. The department started with swimming lessons and garden plots. Jeff Sears and Matthew Eckhardt will report PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION November 14, 2018 Page 2 of 6 on this topic. The Mayor asked RaQuishia Harrington to look at Birmingham, Alabama's youth programs and compare them with Iowa City. Harrington will present her findings as well. EQUITY TOOL HIT MAPS & PROCESS — MATTHEW ECKHARDT & JEFF SEARS: Eckhardt and Sears explained that several months ago they discussed the idea of using the City's GIS mapping software to look at current program participants and to determine what future efforts can be made to reach underserved areas of the city. It was determined that swimming lessons was the best program to begin the analysis process, as it is easily identifiable. The GIS system allows staff to see which people are served in the various areas of town and neighborhoods. Eckhardt explained that staff could go back as far as 2014 to look at each session (three sessions per year) since then to determine what areas are best served and what areas need increased outreach. It has been expressed that there is a need for more outreach and programming for the south district of Iowa City. Eckhardt explained the equity tool kit maps and the processes for using them. Because there may be multiple people from one household who sign up for lessons, it was determined that it was best to use a heat map for this analysis. A heat map shows data represented in colors. Eckhardt explained that red to yellow on the heat map indicates a high density of users. He also noted that in summer months, the numbers increase. Eckhardt explained that the department partnered with the Sudanese community in 2016 and therefore, the map indicates a higher density of users in the Pheasant Ridge area. In 2015/2016, the department started the swim scholarship program. Eckhardt said they found that transportation, not necessarily fees, is the biggest obstacle when it comes to increasing the diverse population using the Recreation programs. Fett asked why it doesn't show that to be an issue in Pheasant Ridge. Eckhardt explained that this group tends to carpool. Sears also noted that staff will begin using this method when looking at the departments summer camp programs. Sears explained that when looking at the garden plot registrations, they added an overlay minority impact map and then retrieved addresses from the departments registration system which then populated onto the map showing where the garden renters are located. He noted that those that rented the Kiwanis garden plots all lived on the west side, Chadek Green gardens were rented by those that live on the east side, while Reno was further widespread. He explained that Wetherby garden plots had the most diverse group of renters noting that this could be because it offers 110 plots and has been established in Iowa City the longest. He stated that there are renters from outside of Iowa City as well that use Wetherby Park garden plots. Laurian expressed her concern that renters would not be shown on the minority impact map. Hall noted that the City has an overall minority impact map where information is gathered from census data collected. Seyde117ohnson explained that these maps provide a tool for the department when planning future programming. For example, it will likely show that there isn't a need for garden plots in areas where there are fewer renters as home owners may have the available space to plant a garden in their own yard. Hall noted that the future Walden Hills gardens will serve the many renters on that side of town. PARTNER & OUTREACH EVENTS — RAOUISHIA HARRINGTON Harrington noted that staff is reaching out to various parts of the community to learn what their interests are, educate them about the programs that are offered that they may not be aware of, and to determine how to better serve them. She expressed the importance of collaboration and listening to them. She said that, although, there are some language barriers, she is working with family advocates at the schools as well as nonprofit organizations around the community to see how information can be better translated. She has worked with groups such as United Action for Youth to assist her in reaching the teen population and to determine what programs they are interested in. As mentioned, Mayor Throgmorton asked that Harrington look at programs offered in Birmingham, PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION November14,2018 Page 3 of 6 Alabama for potential programming ideas for Iowa City. Harrington found that Iowa City offers many of the same or similar programs that Birmingham offers. Specifically, the Parks and Recreation Department offers programs in sports and fitness, music and movement, special events, social & cultural activities as well as programs centering around Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM). The department has started hiring high school students in the aquatics and customer service areas. The Iowa City Library offers a program called the Teen Activity Group (TAG). This group meets monthly to discuss books, upcoming events, play video games and just to talk about what is going on. This program is to allow teens a greater voice at the library. The City's Summer of the Arts Festival features a variety of opportunities for musical performers and entertainers from both high school and college age students. Harrington expressed the importance of offering awards for their performance. An example is the Iowa City Human Rights Youth Recognition program. Area youth are nominated by members of the public for their promotion and contribution to human rights causes both locally and globally. Harrington stated that there is a long list of agencies who are doing great programming but need further collaboration. Harrington noted that it may be helpful to have a youth advocacy group where youth can come in and talk about what is needed and wanted. There is a need to learn how better to serve them and how we can be more involved in these initiatives. She also noted that transportation is an ongoing concern for both youth and adults. Younker asked if there is an area of Iowa City that we don't currently have contact with. Harrington said that the west side of Iowa City is the most underserved. She also noted that finding space to hold a program on the west side is a challenge. There may be programs that have a following but nowhere to meet. Laurian said that she is impressed with what is offered in the community. She does have a concern about there not being more programs for afterschool hours. Harrington said that Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County offers such programs. However, she also noted that once a child reaches the age of 5 "/6' grade, the supervision drops as well as the afterschool program attendance. (Harrington's presentation is attached to these minutes.) SWIM LESSON OUTREACH —MATTHEW ECKHARDT Eckhardt shared that the department has been raising funds for a swim lesson scholarship program for the past few years. This program has raised a considerable amount of money; however, the department has resources for more. Eckhardt is working with other community members in developing a program called Swim Here in an effort to teach everyone in the community to swim. Eckhardt said that the fees do not seem to be a barrier for participation as the lessons are offered at a very economical price and the department offers low-income discount for residents of Iowa City who qualify. Eckhardt also reiterated that transportation is a big issue. He further stated that while many programs can be taken to the public, swimming is not one of them. Staff will be offering a physical education style course to Faith Academy, a faith based elementary school geared to reach low-income neighborhoods, set to begin in January. Staff is in the final phases of developing an after -school swim program with Alexander Elementary that will begin in January and run for 6 weeks. Looking to expand the program, staff is finding that most after -school programs have 90 participants, which is posing an obstacle. Staff is currently working with Lemme Elementary staff and City Transportation Services to see how we can overcome the transportation issue. When reaching out to targeted areas, Eckhardt has worked with Alexander Elementary to gather data from their free lunch stats and demographics. Eckhardt commended staff member Kate Connell for gathering much of the information needed for tonight's presentation. Seydell Johnson mentioned that staff is currently looking at partnering with the U of I Department of Public Health to offer another initiative to get kids involved in health and wellness activities. Staff would be able to do programming in our gyms teaching them healthy lifestyle choices as well as swimming. PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION November14,2018 Page 4 of 6 CUP BUDGET UPDATE — JULI SEYDELL JOHNSON Seydell Johnson shared the most up-to-date budget information with Commission, explaining that this is still in draft form. This draft will go to Council in January. Seydell Johnson reviewed the various items listed in the Parks & Recreation section of the report (full report is attached to these minutes). She started with the Park Annual Improvement Fund explaining that this is for general miscellaneous small projects within the parks system. The next item on the list is Park Annual ADA Accessibility Improvements. She noted that the projects that have been completed with ADA updates include Pheasant Hill, Mercer, Highland and Tower Court Parks. Next year's projects will include Brookland, Oak Grove and Black Springs Circle Parks. Willow Creek Park will get new restrooms, a park shelter and a playground in the summer of 2019. She said that she will have more information for commission regarding the Annual Recreation Center Improvements at the December meeting. She noted that the budget for both the Lower City Park Playground and Willow Creek projects have been boosted. She explained that the East Side Sports Complex Tree Buffer includes only tree planting next year. These trees will serve as a buffer between the railroad and future development. There is no indication that the City will proceed with a master plan for an athletic complex. A new item on the list is the City Park Ball Field Improvements. These will include improvements to lighting as well as the addition of some fencing around the dugouts and backstops. She stated that the City will be looking for designers to develop a plan for 2020 projects to include a new shelter and small playground at Fairmeadows Park. This playground will focus on activities for younger children as there is a larger playground with amenities for older kids located at Grant Wood Elementary nearby. Wetherby Park will get a new restroom, shelter and playground. In 2020 the playground will be installed and the shelter replaced at Scott Park. Napoleon playground, located in the center of the softball complex, will be replaced. Other items will include repairing of drainage issues and providing accessible pathways to trails. HVAC and dehumidification upgrades to the Mercer Park Aquatic Center and Scanlon Gymnasium are included in the CIP. Laurian and Bentler both expressed concern about the Ped Mall project being listed under the Parks and Recreation budget. Seydell Johnson explained that is because the downtown area used to fall within the Parks Division and it hasn't been moved from there on this report. Laurian asked about the item titled Mercer Park Ball Diamond #1 Turf Conversion. This project would convert one field from natural materials to synthetic turf. Seydell Johnson said this would likely only occur if the school district agrees to be the primary financier. REPORT ON ITEMS FROM CITY STAFF Parks & Recreation Director — Juli Seydell Johnson: • Staff Training: Seydell Johnson held an all -staff training that included a tour of several park projects. • Staffmg: Seydell Johnson reported that staff have been busy with hiring and that it is great to have a full administrative staff again. Recreation Division Superintendent — Brad Barker: • Staff Meetings & Training: Barker noted that he has been busy meeting with all the staff of the Recreation Division learning what they do, how he can help to make their jobs more efficient, and learning about the community. He has also been busy training in the budget, finance, and purchasing procedures. PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION November 14, 2016 Page 5 of 6 Parks Division Superintendent — Zac Hall • Snow & Leaf Removal: With the recent snowfall, staff has been cleaning snow from parks/trails as well as assisting the Streets Department in leaf pick-ups. • Villa Park: Parks staff have been working on this project with a portion of the playground installation. • Tree Advisory Committee: Hall reported that this committee held its first meeting on Friday, November 9. They will be working on the forestry management plan. • Sand Prairie: Staff has been doing natural areas work at Sand Prairie which includes pulling out much of the invasive species. • Facilities: Staff is in the process of winterizing athletic facilities, park shelters, restrooms etc. within the parks. • EAB Update: Staff will return to council to discuss the EAB plan. Hall is currently working with purchasing to create an RFP looking for a company to treat trees deemed healthy enough to do so. • Staffine: Seydell Johnson reported that there will be a staffing change within the Parks Division. With the recent retirement of a maintenance worker, staff asked council to approve the hiring of an assistant superintendent, rather than fill the maintenance position. They were agreeable. This staff member will work on tree inventory and other new projects within the city. This person will also work with the new mowing contract approved by the City. CHAIRS REPORT: Younker expressed his appreciation for the equity presentations given at tonight's meeting. He would like to make this a regular topic on fixture agendas. COMMISSION TIMUSUGGESTIONS FOR FUTURE ATENDA ITEMS Smith said she appreciates the ADA paths that are going into various parks. She noted that it would be nice to have a playground for elopers. Seydell Johnson said this is being addressed during playground designs. Laurian also mentioned that the tree committee held their first meeting. While she believes that we should not be treating trees that are going to have to come down anyway, it is difficult to stick by that after speaking with a member of the public who expressed the value of that same tree in a whole different way. She further noted that that kind of value cannot be measured. She has concerns about how to balance both sides. Bentler suggested that there is likely a need for more education to the public, stating that it is important to let them know that the tree will be replaced. Younker expressed his concern that these trees may become a liability issue which also needs to be shared with the public. Bird agreed that education is very important. He noted that he learned a lot from the EAB presentation given by staff and that the public could learn from that as well. Laurian asked if staff should lobby for more money. Seydell Johnson said that this topic will be on the next council agenda. Younker stated that it may be helpful to educate the community through letters to the editor. Seydell Johnson noted that she has been approached by a realty group to discuss trees in general. Staff will proceed with a presentation to educate these realtors. Bentler asked if the treatment proposal has been taken to the northside neighborhood group. Hall said not since the Council Meeting. ADJOURNMENT: Moved by Bentler, seconded by Laurian, to adiourn the meeting at 6:16 p.m. Motion passed 8-0 (Venzon absent).
