Farmers Market vendors have presented a petition signed by 33 vendors to request that the Saturday Farmers Market be extended through the first Saturday in November.

Unanimous. Humbert is moving outside the city limits this month, and will no longer be eligible to serve on the Parks and Recreation Commission. COMMITTEE Humbert reported that the Riverfront Commission had not met for the past two months. With Humbert's resignation, a new liaison will be needed. There have been several instances of conflict between the commissions in the past year, so communication is important. It was suggested that we rotate terms: one year a Riverfront member comes to our meetings, and the next year our member would go to Riverfront meetings. Riddle will discuss the Possibility of rotating with Karin Franklin, Riverfront staff member, Mtceonu+rD By -JORM MICRPLAB � CEDAR RAPIDS DES MOINES i � /790 C r September 8 Minutes, Page 2 CHAIR REPORT Riddle will be continuing the youth basketball program at Hoover School this year. If there are enough volunteers, it may be possible to expand the program to one or two additional schools. In Hampton, Iowa a facility for young kids similar to a mini major league park was put up. All funding came from donations. Riddle would encourage Parks and Recreation Commission to consider soliciting funds for such a project. The Midlands Tennis Tournament was a success. A compromise was worked out, and they used our courts as per the schedule sent to each commission member in July. Riddle received one letter complaining about the lack of courts available; no other members received any complaints. The Recreation Center had several calls complaining about lack of courts. The University courts are finished now, and will be available for the Midlands next year. DIRECTOR'S REPORT None. OTHER BUSINESS Tab Ray discussed the Johnson County Golf Tournament,'which was cancelled because of lack of registration. He contacted the four local courses, set up meetings, fees, prizes, etc., but did not get the cooperation from some of them that was desired. All the courses would like to see the tourney held next spring. Mitchell and Dean felt that $25 was quite high for an entry fee ($10-815 is good), and that cash or specific prizes rather than gift certificates would be more desirable. Jennings suggested that commission members who were members of a course should approach the courses and that perhaps they would be willing to help and give more. Dean recommended purchasing prizes ahead of time so everyone would know what they were; perhaps local merchants would donate prizes. Dean would like to see local golf coaches involved. Dean and Jennings offered to help set up another tournament. Moved by Dean, seconded by Crum that we plan a golf tournament for next year. Unanimous. The nomination committee for officers whose terms will begin with the November meeting will be Crum, Martin, and Mitchell. A new school board liaison will be appointed to begin with our October meeting. Howell reported that new soccer goals had been put up at Napoleon Park and South East Junior High. We also have three fields at Willow Creek Park and one field at Wetherby Park. According to the soccer people, this will be enough field space for now. Humbert asked about a report of an injury to a young child by a tree limb at City Park. Howell said that a dead limb fell and injured the child on his head and back, and that there may be a claim against the city for medical expenses. Crutchfield, Harney, Ray, and Robinson gave short presentations of new and ongoing programs being offered. Robinson, Forester/Horticulturist, was hired in July to take over the forestry duties of Billie Hauber and the horticultural duties of Leanne Hospodarsky. 111CROFIVID By JORM MIC Rd)LAB j CEDAR RAPIDS DES ADI9ES '. /190 1 I September Minutes, Page 3 Moved by Dean, seconded by White, meeting adjourned 8:20 p.m. Karen Oristner i i 111CRDEILMED BY - "JORM.
