Page 2 Parks and Recreation Board Meeting August 12, 2002 6:15 P.M. — PUBLIC MEETING — STACY RIDGE PARK REVISED MASTER PLAN Brian Bristow welcomed all residents to the meeting, and indicated that the plan being presented this evening is a refinement of original schematic presented in June. The architect received comments from the residents at that time, and incorporated changes to the proposed Master Plan. Comments and discussions were received from the guests, and the following were submitted for inclusion in the minutes of this meeting: Rick Allen 1708 Versailles "Walk thru woods is important to take advantage of natural beauty of area' Paul Berger 1709 Versailles "Concerns with the birds in the southern end of the park — private property, but still a concern" Aaron Cook 1704 Knoll Court "I am in favor of the sports courts which are to be erected as basketball courts. I see this area useful as a surface for skating and any other events that can utilize a hard flat surface of this type." Tim Ostermeyer 2630 Western Drive Garland, TX 75042 "How big will the trees be when planted, and when will the trees be planted. I believe that trees beautify the park and should be planted as soon as possible to allow the trees to grow as soon as possible. As I mentioned earlier, I do not personally want to see two basketball hoops from my front yard. I would love to see the trees planted as soon as possible." Michelle LeClerc 1906 San Carlos Ave "I would like to see the project move forward with open spaces for play, basketball (at least one), natural trail, and as much hike and bike trail as possible." Chris and Tania Rippy 1908 San Carlos Page 3 Parks and Recreation Board Meeting August 12, 2002 •`h` budget is an issue, we prefer completed trail, (including drru the tre,:s) before basketball coarts. No grills - thank your Wan, more benches and tables outside of the pavilion area."

Brian thanked each of the residents for their interest and attendance. 3. DISCUSSION OF FIELD USE POLICY — TIM DENTLER/TONY HILL Tim Dentler provided the Board with a copy of the existing "Athletic Fields Utilization Agreement', as well as referred them to the study included in the agenda packet. Cart offered a suggestion of use of Allen Independent School District (AISD) Facilities and open spaces around most elementary schools. Tim indicated the City had used Kerr last year for games, and that he felt the dialogue begun by Tony Hill with the school district would prove helpful in exploring options for facility usage. Concerns were also raised regarding groups outside of the Allen Sports Association (ASA) being given an opportunity to use fields. Tim explained the current process whereby fields are allocated according to the participation numbers. It was determined that a subcommittee meeting would be scheduled to work on the Field Use Policy This subcommittee includes Tim Dentler, Scott Neice, Vicki Wester, Tony Hill and Ken Geest. 4. REVIEW PARKS AND OPEN SPACE PLAN MAP—BRIAN BRISTOW Brian briefly reviewed the map included in the agenda packet, and indicated it was actually a draft and will be updated frequently 5.

Story Park Update Brian indicated that currently this project is $120,000 over budget and will probably have to be a "phased' project.
