Background - Fossil Creek Park Expansion is In June 1978, the City of North Richland Hills formally applied i ed to Y pp the Heritage and Conservation Service for the acquisition and development of Fossil Creek Park. Primary'usti justification cats on was that the City had a 300% deficit in dedicated park land based on a recognized standard minimum of 10 acresg of Park land per 1 , 000 population. The total land acquisition was 43 acres with 15 acres to be developed as Phase 19 1979 I. On January , the application was approved for 50% Federal assistance under the Land and Water Conservation Fund Program. The Phase I expansion initially i ncl u' ded four lighted tennis -courts, s unlighted b �courts, one un1i g baseball diamond, jogging trail, 80 long foot drinking fountains, barbe 1 bridge, que grills, ls, picnic area, parking facility, concession stand and picnic shelter. I I . Funding for Expansion 0 r� The estimated cost of the 15 acre development was initially $424,574.The State commitment was set at $212, 287. It is important to note that as part of the initial request for funding a "Statement of Availability of Local MatchingShare" was submitted Simply put, this statement assures the Federal Government that we can come up with our 50/ share of the project ($212,287). $54,000 of the State commitment has thus far been used. This money was used as 50/ of the land purchase rice. Isle now have $158,287 available p l e from the State minus $54,000). Currently the city has a total of $75,386 available for the project. (2 accounts -- y $35,000 as the park half of the Special Park and Library fund and $40,386 in a special "Park Fund" account). In November 1979, the City Engineer finished the final Plans and Specifications for the proposed project, This generally, is the detailed plans and cost estimates for the project. The cost estimate was 605 303 This figure was reduced by deletions made by the city staff. These cuts amounted to $102,448. The total cost of the project at this time is $502,845. The following is a summary of the current financial status. 2125287 Total State Commitment 54,000 Land Purchase 1585287 Total now available from State + 755386 Currently in Park Funds 233,673 5025854 Cost of Total project (Phase I) 2335673 Available funds 2695181 needed to complete project III. Current Administrative Status of Park Grant June 1978 - Applied for Grant Jan. 1979 -- Grant approved Oct. 1979 - Plans and Specifications due at Austin for final approval Nov. 1979 - Plans and Specifications received from City Engineer Dec. 1979 - City Staff reviews and recommends deletions Feb. 1980 -- Parks Commission reviews plans. Made no recommendation until Cognci l approves deletions made by City Staff Mar. 1980 - City Council in a worksessi on approves cuts and approves continuing the project based on Parks Commission Recommendation April 1980 - Parks Commission approves project April 1980 - We sent assurance to the State that detailed plans and specifications will be delivered to Austin in May 1980. (Note: Bids cannot be solicited until final approval from State is received) City Council must approve plans and specifications in open council session before we can deliver them to the State. Final State approval will require approximately one week. We can then advertise for bids. Iv. Current Status of all Parks in North Richland Hills Richfield Park - Four lighted ball diamonds, 2 tennis courts, five piece exercise equipment, 2 football /soccer fields, 2 basketball courts, playground equipment and picnic facilities. Permanent buildings are concession stand/restrooms and 4 scorer's booths. General Condition - Fair. Improvements this last year include: new tennis nets, wi ndbreakers, basketball nets, irrigation system on one bal lfi eld, new exercise equipment, new bleachers, and security lighting. Parking is inadequate during the summer months, The most pressing problem is the lighting system. The lighting for the most part was donated and was installed quickly and the cheapest way possible. We are now paying the price. Grounding is inadequate - exposed wires buried in the ground. The poles are of varying heights, telescoped together and dangerous during high winds. At one point during a game in 1979, a pole broke and a welder and electrician were called for repairs. The City does not own adequate equipment for lamp replacement. Because of instability of the poles, lamp replacement alone will cost $1,500 this year. Sandblasting, painting and strapping would cost over $6,000 and would not guarantee a permanent solution. • Emerald Hills Park (Norich) General Condition -- Fair. This is a neighborhood - • round equipment 9 ood parr with limited ted p1 ay-- 9 and restrooms. Because of persistent vandalism problems, no improvements have been made this past year and none is planned. We d general clean up, maintain the restrooms and mow the grass. Fossil Creek Park General Condition - Fair/Poor. Three i rl s soft ' ui ment re g ball diamonds, , play e q p strooms (poor condition), 3 scorers' booths and stand. concession Improvements this past year have been primarily stem p y centered around the electricial system. . The old system was controlled by metal -to-meta contact breaker boxes. Locks were constantly broken off and 1 presented an extremely dangerous situation. At considerable cost, breaker boxes were installed an d security fences were placed around boxes. The 1 i ght .fixtures are over 20 years old. On A ' fixture fell Aril 20, 1980, one complete off of the pole and narrowly missed a younggirl i n batter's box. A commercial g the electrician has been contracted to trouble shoot the system. The parking situation is inadequate and the road bad. A potentially beautiful park has suffered years of neglect. Some buildings werepaynted this past year for the first time. Northfield Park An undeveloped 28 acre park, Restroom facilities are in place as well as a practice ballfield. Construction on an access road wa s begun last w-inter, In general, our parks have suffered b neglect, ect y g In the past, the four man maintenance crew were used in the winter for clearing right-of-ways on our streets, painting at City Hall and until y permitted to d last year were not p , o any park maintenance during the winter months with other departments equipment As and personnel are needed. Budget His of Parks and Recreation The following is the per cent of the total c i t y budget allocated for c i ty parks and recreation.
