rIN CITY OF COLTON INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Councilmember Don Sanders APPROVAL: Anna A. Vega, Finance Director, FROM: Bonnie Johnson, Assist. Finance Director SUBJECT: Request for Improvement at Davis Park DATE: October 10, 1996 On this date you requested an update on the status of the CFD financing the Davis Park basketball courts resurface. The following is a recap of the events: On June 18, 1996, 1 received a memo from Randy Anstine, Neighborhood Services Director, regarding the possible use of excess funds in CFD 88-1 to resurface basketball courts at Davis Park. There is currently $342,816 of available excess earnings in the CFD 88-1 Construction Fund. These excess earnings can be used at the discretion of the City for maintenance of the improvements within the CFD. The proposal to resurface the courts is $4,575. This issue was brought before the CFD Commission on August 5'" and again on October 7`". The Commission has taken the position that this particular project is a City responsibility, not that of the CFD. The Commission would consider recommending funding this project if the Parks and Recreation Commission determines that there is no other source of funds available and makes that recommendation to the CFD Commission. The Commission is also evaluating other alternative uses of these funds. The Commission does not want to make any recommendations until all alternatives have been explored and costed out. However, it is my understanding after speaking to yourself and Randy Anstine, that the basketball courts are currently in such a state that there is a high risk of injury and thus a high risk of liability to the City. Due to the liability, it is incumbent that some form of action be taken in this matter. If I can be of further assistance, please contact me at extension 5050. cc: Malik Freeman, City Manager Randy Anstine, Neighborhood Services Director t�N Chairman John Sigaty AGENDA ITEM NO. 1S
