C. DEPARTMENT UPDATES
CA NRH2O FAMILY WATER PARK UPDATE
Mr. Frank Perez, NRH2O General Manager provided an update on activities at NRH2O
Family Waterpark.
-After a slow start, NRH2O had a great year ending with the second highest revenue total
in park history. June and July saw the second-best monthly revenue totals in the history
of the park.
-Doggie Beach Bash was held on September 23. It was a highly attended event with
approximately 1000 humans and 800 dogs participating.
-Year End Park Awards were held on September 17. The awards are determined by
guests, team members and management.
-Mr. Perez presented a presentation on the new attraction, Nitro Blast, which will replace
the Green Extreme ride that has been in place for 25+ seasons. Nitro Blast will be able to
accommodate more rides per hour at three times the amount. There will be a tremendous
electrical savings with the new attraction, estimated at $60,000 savings per year. Overall
savings is estimated to be $111,000 per year when you factor in electricity, repairs, rafts
and staffing.
Board Member McCarty asked if two people can ride at a time; Mr. Perez replied yes
they can.
Chair Copeland asked if a single person can ride in a double boat; yes they can.
Chair Copeland verified that the Green Extreme has been in place for 26 year. Mr. Perez
confirmed that is was built in 1998. Chair Copeland asked Mr. Perez if he thought that
the Nitro Blast will last as long as the Green Extreme. He is hopeful that it will. Other
attractions at NRH2O have lasted 20+ years and is confident that the Nitro Blast will do
the same.
Board Member Robison asked if the Green Extreme can be recycled in any way. Mr.

Perez stated that there are extensive liability issues when it comes to repurposing the
slide to another park and due to the age, that would not be an option. However, there will
be various parts that can be reused within the park.
C.2 PARKS CAPITAL PROJECTS UPDATE
Mr. Michael Wilson, Park Planning Manager, provided an update and a visual
presentation on Parks Capital Projects.
-Dr. Pillow Playground is in the process of being replaced. Additional picnic tables will be
added and shade will be placed over the playground itself.
-Green Valley Park Safety Fence and Drainage Improvements was delayed due to a
change order on the fencing portion of the project.
-Green Valley Raceway Historical Area is awaiting artwork after multiple reviews. Mr.
Wilson has been hearing from the public with interesting stories of their own about the
days when the raceway was operational.
C.3 PARKS MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS UPDATE
Mr. Tanner Arwine, Assistant Director, provided an update and visual presentation on
parks maintenance and operations.
-Staff has begun vegetation management at the Lakes of Hometown.
-Tipps Canine Hollow Dog Park was closed for about two weeks while staff performed
much needed maintenance and repairs. Turf care included weed treatments, fertilization,
etc. Irrigation was also added on the east side of the park where there was not any
before.
-Infrastructure maintenance was recently done on the front dock at Green Valley Park.
Research is being done for a possible fiberglass decking replacement in the future, but
this will depend on cost and anticipated longevity.
-Water fountains have been replaced at Walker's Creek Park. Bottle fillers are part of the
new fountains that are being installed, which is a popular feature.
-Athletic field maintenance is taking place which includes adding rye grass seed,
mowing, painting lines and dragging infields.
-It was discovered two weeks ago that six bleachers were stolen. Chair Copeland
inquired as to which park this happened. Mr. Arwine confirmed it was at Green Valley
October 02, 2023

Park.
-Game cameras were installed at Richfield, Northfield and Green Valley Parks to monitor
usage of tennis/pickleball courts. There was a recent park amenity request to convert
four courts at Northfield Park to pickleball courts. Board Member Rodriguez asked if
players need to check in or is it first-come, first-served. Mr. Arwine stated that it is
first-come, first-serve. The players have a paddle system in which they rotate and take
turns.
-Other upcoming maintenance items in the new fiscal year include: concrete repairs; tree
pruning/fence line vegetation control; tree, shrub and sod installation; Cottonbelt Trail
drainage project.
Chair Copeland addressed the issues at Green Valley Park in recent years and asked if
there are any plans to install cameras. Mr. Arwine said that cameras have been
discussed but cost is a factor and there would be no guarantee that it would aid in
catching the person responsible. The inexpensive game cameras may be used on a trial
basis in areas where there are issues. Ms. Pekurney mentioned that there is no site that
has Wi-Fi which is needed to accommodate a viable surveillance system. She has been
in contact with NRH PD to gather more information on the Flock Camera system as a
possible option in the future. Staff does address these issues quickly as they arise, such
as removing graffiti. Mr. Arwine added that vandalism happens at some parks more than
others and it also seems to be seasonal.
Board Member McCarty recommended Trex for the decking. He has used it in the past
and it has held up well. Mr. Arwine said that he will look into that.
Board Member Mitchell asked about placing empty police cars or signs that state there is
a security system in certain areas to deter the vandalism. Mr. Arwine said that they do
not want to give anyone a false sense of security. Ms. Pekurney added that the best
deterrent is the public communicating with the city when something occurs.
Board Member Robison asked about a community awareness campaign to give the
public a better way to communicate non-emergency situations. Ms. Pekurney said that
staff will look into that.
CA NRH CENTRE, GRAND HALL, ATHLETICS, SENIOR CENTER, RICHLAND
TENNIS CENTER, PROGRAMS AND SERVICES UPDATE

promotional video.
-Leagues and athletics have had a great year. Softball is down a bit from previous years.

PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD MEMORANDUM
FROM: The Office of the City Manager DATE: December 4, 2023
SUBJECT: Review the Park Amenity Request Policy and consider
recommendations made by staff regarding the park amenity
requests for the FY2024/25 Capital Improvement Program Budget.
PRESENTER: Tanner Arwine, Assistant Director
SUMMARY:
Mr. Tanner Arwine will provide a summary of the Park Amenity Request Policy and review
the Park Amenity Requests that were received by the Parks and Recreation Department
in calendar year 2023.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
Preparation of the FY2024/2025 Capital Improvement Program Budget will be underway
by mid-December 2023. The Park Amenity Request Policy outlines the criteria and
methodology for responding to requests for additional park amenities and improvements
in existing parks. Five park amenity requests were received in calendar year 2023 for
consideration in the preparation of the FY2024/2025 budget process.
1. Jo Ann Johnson Trail Lighting
2. Fossil Creek Park Portable Restroom
3. Northfield Park Dedicated Pickleball Courts
4. Faram Park Sidewalk Connection
5. North Electric Trail Bridge Deck Replacement
According to the Park Amenity Request Policy, applications received will be evaluated
by Parks and Recreation Department Staff by a variety of criteria, including:
1. Compliance with the 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan and
2016 Updated List of Priorities.
2. Current principles and methods of park planning and design.
3. Capital costs for the requested improvements.
4. Long term fiscal impacts related to maintenance and operations.
5. Impacts on other prioritized projects in the CIP Budget with regards to
introduction of the funding and time schedules associated with the request.

NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS
The Parks and Recreation Facilities Development Capital Improvement Program is
supported by a 1/2 cent sales tax revenue. Sales Tax projections are expected to
continue to impact cash flow capabilities. Funding may not be available for introducing
new requests in the CIP Budget until a future fiscal year.
Staff recommends not funding lighting the JoAnn Johnson Trail at Rufe Snow for the
following reasons:
• In compliance with the 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan and
2016 Updated List of Priorities does not intend to provide lighting on hike and
bike trails.
• Recent safety improvements with the TA-Set Aside Project provide safe crossing
for cyclists and pedestrians through the rapid flashing beacons and has been well
received by the public. The rapid flashing beacons alert drivers when a
pedestrian or cyclist is waiting to cross. While it is both the responsibility of the
driver as well as the trail user to follow all traffic rules, pedestrians must remain
vigilant at any intersection.
Staff recommends continued funding of a portable restroom at Fossil Creek Park for the
following reasons:
• In compliance with Criteria #2, the 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space
Master Plan and 2016 Updated List of Priorities intends to provide a public
restroom at all Community Parks.
• Flood Plain restrictions prohibit the installation of a permanent restroom.
• Portable restrooms have existed in this park for many years, but were recently
burnt down and temporarily did not return.
Staff recommends not converting the two tennis courts to eight pickleball courts at
Northfield Park, but does recommend the conversion of the one tennis court at Richfield
Park to add four additional pickleball courts if funding allows within upcoming proposed
infrastructure maintenance needs for the following reasons:
• In alignment with Goal #1 of the 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master
Plan and 2016 Updated List of Priorities to provide recreational facilities and
programs that meet the changing needs and desires of the City of North Richland
Hills population.
• Northfield Park has steady, but not overwhelming use of both tennis and blended
line pickleball play. A more recreational style of pickleball play is seen on the
blended line courts with adults, families and youth, while the dedicated pickleball
courts can be more competitive and intimidating for beginner level players
because of the heavy usage (as seen at Richfield Park).
• Existing amenities at Northfield Park utilize the majority of parking spots during
prime operational hours. Pickleball courts would most likely over extend the
already limited parking lot availability at Northfield Park during peak usage days
W 109NINk
IrLp
NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS
and times. Richfield Park has sufficient parking to support the additional vehicles
with the addition of four pickleball courts.
• The current four Richfield dedicated pickleball courts are completely full during
peak hours with groups even waiting. The Richfield tennis court is underutilized
and tennis players may not desire to play there because of large numbers of
people playing pickleball.
• Additional dedicated pickleball courts at Richfield Park provide for potential
programming and reservation opportunities helping offset the nominal cost of the
conversion.
Staff recommends funding the Faram Park Sidewalk Connection for the following
reasons'.
• In alignment with Goal #4 of the 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master
Plan Update strives to improve trail and sidewalk access to parks, trails, and
recreational spaces.
• The location of the requested sidewalk exists within Faram Park and connects
an adjacent subdivision that did not exist when the park was built. Additionally
increased pedestrian traffic within the Smithfield TOD is anticipated as this area
continues to develop.
Staff recommends funding the North Electric Trail Bridge Deck Replacement for the
following reasons:
• The lumber decking on this bridge is significantly weathered creating more
frequent safety issues that must be addressed. The condition is becoming a
maintenance burden, taking valuable time and resources of maintenance and
operations that could be directed elsewhere.
• In alignment with Goal #6 of the 2007 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master
Plan Update seeks to maintain parks and recreational facilities in a superior
condition and in a sustainable manner.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Park and Recreation Board is requested to review these Park Amenity requests, and
provide direction to staff on considering these projects as a part of the proposed
FY2024/2025 CIP Budget.

PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD MEMORANDUM
FROM: The Office of the City Manager DATE: December 4, 2023
SUBJECT: Consider recommendation to City Council to readopt the NRH Youth
Programs Standard of Care Ordinance.
PRESENTER: Ron Newman, Membership Services Supervisor
SUMMARY:

Standards and Regulations of the Texas Human Resources Code). To receive exempt
status, a municipality must submit a copy of program standards, a notice of a public
hearing for the program and a copy of the ordinance adopting the standards. The public
hearing and adoption of the ordinance may occur on the same day.
The Youth Programs Standards of Care will provide basic childcare regulations for day
camp activities operated by the City of North Richland Hills Parks and Recreation
Department, allowing the department to qualify for an exemption from the requirements
of the Texas Child Care Standards and Regulations within the Texas Human Resources
Code.
The City of North Richland Hills day camp program meets, and in some areas exceeds,
many of the standards listed in the state's Child Care Standards and Regulations. All of
the Standards of Care included in the City of North Richland Hills Parks and Recreation
day camp policies and procedures have been in place for several years and have been
used in the staff training process prior to camp each year.
The Standards of Care will be provided to the parents of each program participant and
shall include, at a minimum the following areas:
IrLp
NOKTH KICHLAN HILLS
• Minimum requirements for staffing ratios
• Staff qualifications and essential job functions
• Facility, health and safety standards
• Training and procedures for reporting child abuse/neglect allegations
• Written procedures stating that parents and each staff member will be
provided a set of standards
• Contact information of department supervisors for the purpose of complaint
notification and resolution regarding the recreational program
• Written procedures for staff who will be monitoring the programs and
enforcing the standards
• Requirement of criminal background checks on prospective day camp
employees
• Service standards for communicating with parents and performance
expectations of day camp employees
• Behavior management and discipline procedures
• General rules and regulations
The application for exemption determination and the formal adoption of the Youth
Programs Standards of Care and ordinance is an annual requirement so that the
Standards of Care can be revised as needed to reflect current regulations. This is the
eighteenth year for the formal adoption process.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Parks and Recreation Board is requested to make a recommendation to forward the
Youth Programs Standards of Care Ordinance to City Council for their consideration for
adoption.

C. Accelerator Resurface Project — NRH2O has multiple capital projects this
offseason, including one to repair and resurface the Accelerator. A mat racer
style of slide will usually see more wear and tear on the fiberglass due to the
use of mats. With this, the slide will occasionally require repair and resurfacing.
Once completed, this project will extend the lifespan of the Accelerator and
continue to make it safe for NRH2O guests, as well as make the ride look brand
new again.

D. Beachside Bay Cabana Project—Another FY24 capital project for NRH2O
this year is the Beachside Bay Cabana project. This project will take the
existing volleyball court area that is an underutilized space and transform it into
a new area with upscale cabana rentals. By doing this, the park will triple the
current number of cabanas and be able to offer larger and newer cabanas with
different amenities from the four existing cabanas. Coming out of 2020, the
IrLp
NOKTH KICHLAN HILLS
trend in water parks has been to offer more private seating options and this will
continue to add to the seating options offered at NRH2O. This project is
projected to add a substantial amount of additional revenue annually, paying
for itself within the first two years.

• A collapsed drain line at Green Valley Park was repaired by irrigation staff. The
issue was noticed as a sink hole and the pond being over five feet above the
drain that maintains the water level. Excess water in the pond, additional rain, a
tight area between a trail and soccer field, and a 10' depth all made this repair
challenging. Final repairs are being completed the last week of November.

doing donuts and also keep drivers from driving across the parking lots
diagonally, which typically occurs at a higher speed. Stops will only be installed
on interior spots and not areas that front a curb. Long term, all large parking lots
within the park system will receive these wheel stops.

Park Maintenance and Operations—
Park Operations staff have been busy performing a variety
of tasks in many areas Stormy Plaza is currently
undergoing a landscaping update. Aged landscaping
coupled with the harsh summer created a need to improve
P this area. Staff is installing yaupon holly, vitex, liriope and
q, will be coming back in the spring with some native
perennials. Educational Plant identification signs will also
be installed adjacent to some of the plants to provide an
educational component to this heavily trafficked space.
Concrete repairs have been made to one section
of the Cottonbelt Trail north of Eden road and will
be followed by a drain in this section to eliminate
standing water faster after rainfall. Walkers Creek
li Park will also be receiving concrete repairs in the
coming month as soon as additional bids are
received.
,
Significant flooding Wednesday October 25 left several areas in need of immediate attention. Park staff has
been working to address these issues, beginning with clearing and cleaning trails for safety. Substantial
amounts of trash washed up in localized areas and was picked up the next day. Organic debris that washed
out of the creeks is cleaned up last. Cleanup efforts are expected to continue until Friday November 3.

Flower Log Refurbished and Relocated—Delbert Beckham's
Flower Log has been refurbished and placed in a new location this „
week. Made entirely of salvaged steel parts arc-welded together,
the delightful sculpture sat along Bedford-Euless Parkway for over
a decade. Earlier this year, the artwork was removed and placed
into storage before major renovations to the roadway began.
During the summer, Chris Lamar from Parks Operations repainted
and re-welded the metal,which had faded and corroded after years
of outdoor exposure. Staff determined that relocating the work to a "
plant bed near the south entrance to the Grand Hall at NRH Centre
located along 6000 Hawk Avenue, would provide the public a fresh
new way to enjoy the fun and beauty of this piece, which is fully
realized when real flowers are blooming among the flowers and
butterflies of painted steel. This bright and breezy sculpture will
now enjoy renewed life and higher visibility in its new location.
