MEMORANDUM
TO: Don Ashworth, City Manager
FROM: Todd Hoffman, Park & Recreation Director
DATE: September 2, 1997
SUBJ. Second Report
• , Appointments to Citizen Oversight Committee; Park, Open Space
and Trail Referendum Projects
This Item was pre y
viousl scheduled for action on August 25, 1997. Due to a lack of applicants, it
was recommended that the city council table this item for two weeks. Prior to tabling this item,
city council
members asked that a variety of questions be responded to. My response and
recommendation follows.
Prior to engag in g community the communi in a park, open space, and trail referendum, the city council
approved the completion of a community-wide survey. A section of that survey polled residents
p y
on their perspectives on the city. Respondents graded the mayor and city council well above
p y . p
average. "Empowerment, owerment , however, proved to be lower than the suburban norm. Residents were
also not as complimentary about the values of city services and the efficiency of city spending."
Responding to perceptions, p ry
these Mr. Steve Glaser, a campaign consultant retained by t he Trust
for Public Lands suggested the concept of a Citizen Oversight Committee.
•
The role of this committee is stated on the city 's referendum brochure which was distributed to
the public.
Q. Will money be spent on parks only?
A. Yes a Citizens Park Oversight Committee will be formed to
ensure the funds are spent in strict accordance with the
referendum proposal. No funds will be used for other city
p p
services or administrative payroll. An independent public
audit and annual report of all bond referendum fund
q
expenditures will be required and publicly reported.
