A LETTER was received from the City Planning Commission recommending
the denial of Zoning Application 77-23, filed by Crown Builders, Inc., for the
rezoning of a tract of land in Lot 1, Surveyor's Plat 11, from "R-1" to "R-2.5".
Mike Losik, Jr. was present and said there is no basis for disapproval
given in the letter he received. He said he attended the hearing and when the
motion was made and the vote taken, there was no specific reason given for the
denial.
Mr. Rawlings said the zoning map that is in effect at the time is kind
of been by both city ordinance, I think, a past practice, considered to be a
status quo and if a change is made at that point we only cite a reason for
changing, but we haven't in the past to my knowledge ever given reasons other
than the discussion that occurred at the meeting actually stated the reason in
the motion for denial. It is something that probably could be adopted; however
it is not the way we have done it in the past.
Mayor Duckers asked Mr. Losik if a copy of the minutes would be sufficient
in this case since he was present at the hearing?
Mr. Losik replied that it would be sufficient.

COMMISSION AGENDA
"DISCUSS THE POSSIBILITY OF APPOINTING A CITIZENS ADVISORY PARK BOARD"
(Sponsored by Commissioner Graves)
Commissioner Graves - I think we have probably had much input into the
subject of parks and recreation in the community, and I think I have sensed that
there is a consensus of feeling among the Commissioners that we did want to
appoint a citizens park advisory board and I think the only thing that maybe we
were not sure of was whether we wanted to have a professional consultant look at
our park and recreation needs and help us draw up the ordinance or whether just
to go directly to the task of appointing our citizens board, and giving them
some direction in drafting the ordinance and so forth and then letting them take
a look at the whole park and recreation question and then perhaps at some point
maybe they would feel that they needed help from a professional. I quess kind
of at this point in time I would like to see us take the first step of drafting
the ordinance and appointing the citizens park advisory board, just almost
immediately. I think in the government journals that 1 read that come from
Topeka and come from different places around the nation, it seems like so many
communities, city government has a hard time in finding citizens that are
interested in giving of their time as volunteers and here in Salina it seems
like we are really blessed with an abundance of people who are willing to spend
their time, at their own expense, and I think that we should encourage that and
give people the opportunity to serve. And there does seem to be such an increase
in recreation and leisure time and people interested in pursuing physical fitness
and so forth, it just seems like perhaps the time is right now to establish a,
pardon the pun a grass roots, park and advisory group. I am sure that is just
the first pun of the evening... At any rate I guess I would like to see us
instruct our lawyer, our legal counsel to draft an ordinance with between five
and seven members, lay members, with some ex -officio people on the board. I am
thinking of perhaps 1 staff person from the city, 1 staff person from the county,
1 staff person from USD 305, the park superintendent, the Recreation Commission
director and perhaps the Cultural Arts Commission director all as ex -officio
members; but not with votes, just the five or seven lay people, and so I guess
with that I will throw it open to discussion.
Commissioner Simpson - Well, in your letter I think, as far as I am
concerned, the first paragraph would perhaps state their duties and I would
editorialize on that a little bit, or add on to it maybe a little bit. You had
to formulate a medium and long range program for park management, park development
and park land acquisition. Perhaps adding to formulate and advise on, or
continue to advise or something to that nature so that that would, the ordinance
would define the scope of their duties and responsibilities and I certainly
think that your, that really says it all. Now, maybe the first two charges
would be to survey and inventory the present facilities and then secondly to
determine whether or not a comprehensive park/recreation study is needed. But
don't know how you see the definition of the scope of their duties and
responsibilities.
Commissioner Weisgerber - I think I would rather see seven members
rather than five, it would let a few more people who might have interest..
Commissioner Geis - Jack I was looking in my little handbook here and
it says according to the information here that the board usually consists of five
members but under special circumstances may consist of nine, and there are two
references to the establishment of park boards in here and both mention a five
or a nine member ..
Commissioner Weisgerber - Seven would be a happy medium between the
two.
Commissioner Geis - But it does make reference to a Kansas Statute.
Commissioner Weisgerber - Well maybe we had better leave that to
Larry
Commissioner Geis - I suppose that would, but I ... I agree with the
idea of more members on it.
1
F -j
Mayor Duckers - I am glad Karen has finally got this thing surfaced.
We have been shoving it on the back burner for one reason or another and probably
for no good reason for too long already, and I would like to get on with it. I
am sorry that Larry is not here today to tell us really what the next step is
and where he is on the drafting of an ordinance. I know that he has researched
this. Norris can you ..
Mr. Olson - He has researched the subject, but I think probably two
areas he wants you to decide on the duties or the scope of work that you are
going to charge the group with and then how many you want on the board. We will
have an ordinance drafted a week from Monday.
Commissioner Graves - I know that there are some items before the
legislature. I know that Don Jolley is more up on this than I am in the recreation
area, and I don't think we quite know yet what the direction some of those
committees may take, or what the legislature may do and probably any ordinance
that we would draft ought to open ended enough that if such place in time we
could maybe merge for administrative purposes, the park and recreation commissions
and I know because of the mill levy and the area that USD 305 encompasses we
really wouldn't want to lose our ability to get the money from that area to put
it very bluntly, so we want to keep them separate as far as budget purposes; but
I wouldn't want to see us write an ordinance so restrictive that it would preclude
things that might be happening in the legislature.
Commissioner Simpson - The advisory board, the two items the legislature
is considering have to do with the merger of the park and recreation function,
and the mill levy and things pertaining thereto.
Don Jolley - I have been into this thing pretty heavily, and I do
know that what we have is a revision in existing legislation that authorizes the
administrative merger of park and recreation departments in various cities. One
thing this does make mandatory is the establishment of a park and recreation
advisory board. In other words there is no option on the part of the city. If
such a merger takes place, then this board shall be established. In terms of
numbers because of the merger which includes, in effect, the dissolution of the
Recreation Commission the State Legislation calls for the Recreation Commission
at the time the merger becoming the park and recreation advisory board until
their present terms are expired. And then of course it is the function of the
City Commission to replace those people as they go off the board. So that
provides you with the five basic members of your board, but also in that legislation
it specifies that there shall be two representatives of the unified school
district appointed to this board, which increases that to seven, and also provides
for the possibility of an additional county representative or two, so here again
we are talking in terms of five to nine members, depending on the situation.
But that legislation hearing on, hearing on that legislation will be Thursday
this week in Topeka.
Mayor Duckers - In other words what we are anticipating doing now is
not premature?
Mr. Jolley - No, not really because, you know, anything you might do
here would preclude the enactment of that legislation, so you could set it up
any way you want. At the time that legislation comes into effect, if you wish
to avail yourselves of any provisions of that legislation as a means of change,
certainly you could do that.
Commissioner Geis - Don, do I understand you correctly, if this legislation)
is passed then the Recreation Commission would become the park board?
Commissioner Simpson - No.
Mr. Jolley - No, it is purely permissive legislation, authorizing ..
Mayor Duckers - We could if we so desire.
50
Mr. Jolley - In the case of Salina, for example, as you know we are a
joint commission, appointed in part by the city and in part by the school district.
It would require the approval of both the city governing and the Board of Education
to merge these operations. If it were done on a purely legal basis, you know,
of passing an ordinance for that purpose. This is the thing that you have to
look at awfully, very carefully, because, as Karen has said, it is done in that
way, the mill levy for recreation authorized by special legislation now, or by
the recreation enabling law, is lost. Then it becomes the responsibility of the
city to try and find out where they are going to come up with the 2 mills annually
to finance the recreation program. So it isn't a matter that from a, from that
kind of a standpoint is going to be very attractive to any city to do, on the
other hand it can be done by mutual agreement wherein the, it simply is the set
up of administration of one particular individual serving as both recreation
superintendent and as the park superintendent, and in this way the additional
mill levy for recreation can be maintained, and can be continued to be used on
into the future, so that is the primary thing the commission ..
Mayor Duckers - Thank you Don.
Commissioner Graves - Well, do you all have any thoughts about the
number of people, or do we want just today to move that we instruct our attorney
to begin drafting an ordinance? Do we want to agree on the number of people and
who should serve as ex -officio or ..
Commissioner Weisgerber - Let's leave the number blank. He may come
up with something in the state laws, and possible state laws that he might
suggest one over the other.
Commissioner Graves - Maybe some of the League members have something
to say. I think we are extremely grateful to the members of the League for
helping us out on this and for highlighting the question. I don't know if
Sherry has anything she wants to say, or ..
Sherry Denton - Thank you. I think we are most concerned that we get
a cross section, and that we do have people, lay people here that do represent
different facets of recreation. I think this would be our most major concern.
don't think we really chose an ideal number, but I think our thought was would
be along the lines of to satisfy both active and passive as well as people with
horticulture interests and with more game oriented interests. To provide as
much diversity as possible from the lay representation.
Mayor Duckers - That is all the more reason that five might too few to
try to get that blend.
Commissioner Graves - What do you think about the ex -officio members
coming from, one representative or a staff person from the city and one from the
county and one from the school board to keep communication lines going?
Commissioner Simpson - You might have them in an advisory capacity
than an actual ex -officio member however.
Mayor Duckers - they just sit at meetings, attend the meetings.
Commissioner Graves - To get communication going so that if there is a
problem about a school playground that somebody needs to have dragged for a ball
game, or you know, just to get the groups together that ..
Commissioner Simpson - Yeah, you know, the citizens have somebody to
contact then, the park advisory board would be the contact.
Commissioner Graves - Instead of us.
;JL
Commissioner Graves - I would move then, that we instruct our city
attorney to begin drafting an ordinance delineating the purpose of the Citizens
Park Advisory Board and the membership, to include some of the points that we
have brought out here today and in my memo to you all.
Commissioner Geis - I would be very happy to second that.

Hill River Channel Study. He said they are studying skimming weirs, desilting
basins, increase and decrease of flow in the channel, and a circular parkway
system to connect Oakdale, Riverside, Lakewood, Indian Rock, and Kenwood Parks.
Commissioner Simpson asked if water supply will be the last item to be
studied?
Mr. Ricklefs replied that they are not far enough into the study to
announce any progress, but it is one of the primary objectives.
Maurice Bowersox was present and reported on the progress of the South
Salina Drainage Study. He delineated the area of the study, showed the area of
flooding during the August 31st - September 1st, 1977 storm, and made a preliminary
report that some improvement will need to be made to Dry Creek to handle the run-
off, and some provisions will need to be made to acquire easements for additional
storing.
Commissioner Weisgerber asked Mr. Bowersox if he is hindered in his
study of the drainage problem by the area on 4th Street and the slough to
Crawford not being included in the study area?
Mr. Bowersox replied that it would be of benefit to everyone involved
if the slough and 4th Street area were included in the overall master plan.
Mayor Duckers and the Commissioners thanked the gentlemen from Wilson
and Company for their reports.
Commissioner Weisgerber instructed the staff to add an item to the
February 6, 1978 agenda to consider authorizing the expenditure of $11,560.00 to
add the 4th Street and slough area to the South Salina Drainage Study.
