V. NEW BUSINESS A. CIP PROGRESS REPORT - Presentation by Staff Randy Chavez gave a brief update regarding the CIP Report. Mr. Chavez mentioned that some of the progress was pushed back a bit because some of the projects required an overnight stay from the contractors. There are currently bike rack projects that got completed, including Parkview. Three were installed in front of the flag pole and two at the Parkview office. Parks that don't have bike racks will get them installed as well. Sabby Jonathan asked about having bike racks as a form of art. Deborah Glickman mentioned that she has that on the radar already, however art bike racks can take up to a year to install. The basketball court project at Hovley Soccer Park will be starting this week. Surface cracks will be filled in, and other physical structures will be taken into consideration as well. Shade structures are slated to be replaced soon, hopefully by the end of the week. The Joe Mann Park water feature will be taken out, a barbecue grill, and tables are going in as replacements; starting the week of May 8. Mr. Chavez has also kept residents informed regarding these changes. Vice Chair Hardin asked about the mist systems in the parks. Mr. Chavez stated that he is currently working on a quote for the current inventory; there are five at Civic Center and three or four at Freedom Park. VI. CONTINUED BUSINESS A. DESERT X UPDATES - Presentation by Staff 2 PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION PRELIMINARY MINUTES MAY 02, 2017 Deborah Glickman stated that Desert X was an exhibition that began in February with 16 pieces of art throughout the Coachella Valley, from Whitewater to Coachella. One of the art pieces that was a robot, ran out of batteries, and so the pieces were used as a wanted billboard throughout California; it was called the Shy-Bot. One of the organizers of the project, Susan Davis, expected about 40,000 spectators for Desert X, it eventually turned into almost 100,000 spectators, ranging from Los Angeles to Nevada; it got massive international press. They estimated up to one thousand people in a day. The City sponsored the Desert X Project from a marketing aspect. The mirror house in Palm Springs will be staying up through October. Most pieces will be de-installing as of today. Ms. Glickman is asking for ideas on other locations for future Desert X exhibitions. Commissioner Hall mentioned the only issue with Desert X was the mobile application; it wasn't very user friendly, please provide updates. VII. OLD BUSINESS NONE VIII. PRESENTATIONS AND UPDATES A. FRIENDS OF THE DESERT MOUNTAINS UPDATE Tammy Martin currently launched a grant application with CV Trek, which is through USA Today, and she is hoping that with the video submission, they will get into the top ten. First place is worth $100,000 or $50,000. CV Trek is a program to help introduce hiking to the youth of the Coachella Valley. The wellness benefits of hiking include, physical exercise, experiencing natural beauty, and camaraderie; voting is open until May 12. A new hiking app will be launched, there will be 8 trails to start off with; they will also be working with the CVB. Trail signs have been completed in La Quinta; next step is Palm Desert. Trails in Palm Desert are in pretty good shape. Ms. Martin also mentioned that Friends of the Desert Mountain is celebrating their 30th Anniversary. B. PARK USE REPORT - Civic Center Park Kim Warpinski reflected on the actuality that Civic Center is the busiest park here in the City; Ms. Warpinski turned things over to Randy Chavez for a few updates. One of the things mentioned is the dog park. Mr. Chavez is hoping to have the fencing replaced, and painted with polyurethane to prevent rusting; it's a pretty aggressive plan for next fiscal year. There will be new trash cans installed, in addition to that there will be new drinking fountains, not only for the dog park, but also for the baseball fields; they are trying to standardize everything. The nets for the 3 PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION PRELIMINARY MINUTES MAY 02, 2017 volleyball courts will be replaced, and the sand as well. Ryan Stendell wanted to thank Mr. Chavez for being accommodating on Earth Day to the Girls Scouts, and for allowing someone to donate a tree to the dog park. Mr. Chavez mentioned that they are hoping to possibly make this an annual event. In the future it can expand into something more wonderful. Sabby Jonathan brought up the issue with the standing water that can be unhealthy, and it can create legal issues if not tended to accordingly. Updated maps of the park are up for next fiscal year. C. PALM DESERT AQUATIC CENTER David Keyes gave an update on the Aquatic Center. There were a total of 975 attendees for the water egg hunt on Easter. It was a great day, a great event, and a great turnout. New Mexico University will be coming out in December; British Colombia is still set to come out in January, 2018. There are more full facility rentals which includes Desert Christian Academy, and the Girl Scouts of San Gorgonio who will have a movie night on June 2.

In addition to the school trips, birthday parties are in full swing as well. Next event will be on May 13, Free Swim Lesson Day. They are hoping for a bigger turnout than last year. There were some closures; the lap pool for filtration, and clarity of water. The recreational pool had some replacements and is back in action. There is a big event coming up for July 4. D. FAMILY YMCA OF THE DESERT Rob Ballew gave an update on programs. There was an egg hunt for Healthy Kids Day. There were five separate egg hunts based on age groups, with about 10,000 eggs that day.

There were persons attempting to rescue the child, but to no avail as he had no swimming skills whatsoever. My fellow administrator, Nancy Hill of Jackson Elementary, and I determined to do what we could to prevent such a tragedy. Jackson School held swim lessons for years. Nearly twenty years later, it is still a goal of mine to institute swim lessons for children. Approximately three years ago, we started a water safety swim program at our tuition-free private school in Thousand Palms. The vast majority of our children did not know how to swim and were afraid of the water. Karen, Roger, David and the instructors were top-notch at all aspects of the eight swim lessons, water safety and recreation activities. The program planning meetings, discussion and emails were professional and courteous. The program delivery was exemplary. As with any program that deals with service to a wide-range of people, problems will crop up. The Aquatic Center staff handled our questions, concerns, and needs promptly and graciously. It is a study to watch the staff balance safety and a variety of needs with a wide spectrum of the public in apparent effortless decision-making and actions done with respect, kindness and graciousness. With the change in leadership at Karen's retiring from the head position, we were concerned. As has been the case in all past experiences with the PDAC staff, the new program director, David Keyes, carries the mantle of quality established by the inaugural PDAC, team with excellence. It is no wonder that we frequently hear from friends who live in Palm Desert that the community of Palm Desert is very proud of its exemplary Aquatic Center. Well done! One of the impetuses for writing this letter today was discovering that one of our high school students will come to the Swim Club at the PDAC starting this week. What makes this an amazing event is that she was a non-swimmer from Thermal when we started the program. She went from clinging to the instructors in terror three years ago to taking the challenge to join the Swim Club when her instructor, Amanda, suggested that she has real potential. This morning, when I saw her at our school library program, she gave a bright smile at the mention of swimming! Her family has been trying to discover ways to make her smile after the death of her father less than two years ago. This is just one example of the tremendous positive impact of your PDAC program. Thank you for providing this outstanding program that services many people in our Coachella Valley.

Golf Center Activities— 1) With the increasing seasonal heat and the departure of our snow bird golfers, volume at the Golf Center continued to decrease as the month of May concluded.The golf course continues to work through the seasonal turf transition from the winter rye grass to the summer Bermuda grass playing conditions. Our grounds crew has been busy with responding to 'hot spots' on the course with added water being applied in response to the warm late Spring temperatures. We are also in active discussion with our current maintenance contractor to determine whether we will extend our current contract, as described in the vendor contract, or to move in the direction of an overall new contract. We anticipate a decision by mid-June. We are also determining the feasibility of utilizing a range ball dispensing machine for certain times of the year to reduce labor while providing range ball access and golfer practice opportunities. In addition, the final tally has been completed with over $9K raised from our monthly Second Saturday parking lot sales of donated goods. Both good will and good donations were achieved and we look to fine tuning this event for next season. Finally, the Golf Center has moved to it's summer hours of operation schedule of 7:OOA— 1:00P seven days a week. The First Tee Board Activities/Outreach— Our The First Tee—Coachella Valley Board of Directors held their Board meeting Monday, May 8th at the Golf Center.

We also have been fortunate to receive support from over 10 country clubs in the Valley with continued outreach to this important segment gaining traction over time. We also have received notification of the support of three of the nation's top golf management groups sharing their donations with the National TFT and our local chapter. As we look to the coming fall season, we'll be formulating our 2018 Strategic Plan with continued focus on expanding our outreach and telling our story to Valley residents. Finally, we are actively identifying and recruiting potential TFT-CV Board members to further our commitment to an engaged and energized core group of Valley wide individuals. • s • . ..
