B.2 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.
APPROVED
Mr. Tanner Arwine provided a summary of the Park Amenity Request Policy and
presented the five park amenity requests that were received by the Parks and Recreation
Department in 2023. The Parks and Recreation Board was asked to review these
requests and give direction to staff on considering these projects as part of the
2024-2025 CIP Budget. Mr. Arwine offered a visual presentation with explanations of
each item to the Board.
1-JoAnn Johnson Trail Lighting: Staff recommends not funding lighting the JoAnn
Johnson Trail at Rufe Snow.
--Board Member Robison asked if there was anything more cost efficient, such as
repainting the area. Mr. Arwine stated that there are options they plan to explore such as
restriping the area. Ms. Pekurney added that there are several crossings in the city and
they are all looked at as a whole. Other solutions are being explored as well.
2-Fossil Creek Park Portable Restroom: Staff recommends continued funding of a
portable restroom at Fossil Creek Park.
--Board Member Mitchell inquired about the hours at Fossil Creek Park. Mr. Arwine
stated that since this is a community park, it is open until 11.00 p.m.
--Board Member Beck wanted to confirm that this was a request to replace the portable
restroom. Mr. Arwine confirmed that is the case. There were previously portable
restrooms there but they were vandalized and burned a couple of years ago.
3-Northfield Park Dedicated Pickleball Courts: Staff recommends not converting the two
December 04, 2023
Parks and Recreation Board Meeting Minutes
Page 2 of 8
tennis courts to eight pickleball courts at Northfield Park, but does recommend the
conversion of one tennis court at Richfield Park to add four additional pickleball courts, if
funding allows, within upcoming proposed infrastructure maintenance needs.
--Board Member Rodriguez asked about the time frame that Mr. Arwine's data came from
on pickelball court usage. Mr. Arwine stated that it is from October 2023.
--Board Member Beck asked for clarification of the data.
--Board Member McCarty wanted to clarify that staff is recommending converting courts
at Richfield Park, not at Northfield Park. Mr. Arwine confirmed that is the
recommendation.
--Board Member Robison confirmed amount of courts that would be converted. He asked
how play would be affected and the amount of people it could accommodate. Mr. Arwine
said that it has been discussed to add an additional gate to assist with the ingress and
egress of the area.
--Vice-Chair Lewis clarified the park amenity request versus what staff is recommending.
Ms. Pekurney expounded on the reasons behind staffs recommendation, including the
parking challenges that it would cause at Northfield Park if the request were to be fulfilled.
Ms. Lewis is in support of creating more pickleball courts for the community.
--Chair Copeland asked what the hours are for pickleball play. Mr. Arwine stated that lit
courts are 7.00 a.m. to 11.00 p.m. and the unlit courts are sunrise to sunset. Ms.
Copeland also asked how many pickleball courts are in the city; there are seven
currently.
--Board Member Robison asked about the possibility of converting one side to pickleball
and not all of them. Mr. Arwine explained that parking would still be an issue.
--Board Member Beck stated that as a tennis player and a parent of tennis players, it is
difficult to find open tennis courts at Northfield Park on the weekends. She does not
support reducing the number of tennis courts for more pickleball courts.
--Board Member McCarty stated that it will be difficult to keep up with the demand of the
popularity of pickleball.
--Mr. Steve Harding requested to speak again. He addressed several points that have
been brought up in the discussion, including that blended courts are not good for
pickleball players; more people can play pickleball as they rotate in and out.
--Chair Copeland asked about the blended lines. Ms. Pekurney explained that there are
some pickleball players that prefer playing on a dedicated court versus blended line
courts.
--Board Member Rodriguez said that he is hesitant to take away tennis courts and agrees
with the $30K option versus the $88K option.
4-Faram Park Sidewalk Connection: Staff recommends funding the Faram Park Sidewalk
Connection.
--Board Member Robison asked if the trail going into Faram Park is wider than the
sidewalk - yes.
--Board Member McCarty confirmed that the dimensions are 100' x 4' - this is correct.
December 04, 2023
Parks and Recreation Board Meeting Minutes
Page 3 of 8
5-North Electric Trail Bridge Deck Replacement: Staff recommends funding the North
Electric Trail Bridge Deck Replacement.
--Chair Copeland asked if the amount of$135K would be replacing or upgrading the
material. Mr. Arwine stated that they would be replacing with the original lumber that was
installed, a pressure treated Douglas Fir which would also be wider. Ms. Copeland asked
if this material lasts longer and Mr. Arwine stated that it would; it should last about 20
years.
--Board Member Rodriguez confirmed that it would be new material that staff would use.
He stated that he is aware of how rough this bridge it. Mr. Arwine said that there are
other options such as fiberglass but it does not hold up as well. Mr. Rodriguez asked how
old this bridge is. Mr. Arwine was not sure of an install date but it is as old as the trail.
--Board Member Robison asked if the cost included fasteners as well and Mr. Arwine
said that it does.
The Parks and Recreation Board was in agreement with staff on all of the above
recommendations with the exception of the Northfield Park Dedicated Pickleball Courts:
Vice Chair Lewis disagreed with the recommendation to not convert the two tennis courts
to eight pickleball courts at Northfield Park. She feels that pickleball allows more people to
enjoy a sport than tennis.
Chair Copeland feels that staff recommendation provides a solution to provide additional
courts and this is something that can be considered again in the future. Board Member
Mitchell agrees with staff recommendation. He feels that this is a temporary situation and
a temporary solution. Board Member Beck feels that staff recommendation is a fair
solution.
THESE REQUESTS WERE REVIEWED INDIVIDUALLY.
13.3 CONSIDER RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL TO READOPT THE NRH
YOUTH PROGRAMS STANDARD OF CARE ORDINANCE.
APPROVED
Mr. Ron Newman presented the NRH Youth Programs Standards of Care Ordinance.
Adopted standards are a Texas Department of Family and Protective Services
requirement for an exempt status for day care licensing. The Parks and Recreation
Board recommended to forward the Youth Programs Standards of Care Ordinance to
City Council for their consideration for adoption.
A UNANIMOUS DECISION WAS MADE TO FORWARD THE YOUTH PROGRAMS

REVIEW OF EVENTS
A. NRH2O Hiring and Training
NRH2O is gearing up to begin the process to interview and hire the 400 plus
seasonal team members who join our staff every year and provide outstanding
service to park guests. The first big event is the annual rehire party for all team
members looking to return for the upcoming season. The rehire party will be held
on Thursday, February 8. Shortly thereafter, interviews begin for individuals
looking to join the water park team for the first time. Anyone interested in
employment with the park can go to www.nrh2o.comfiobs for more information.
Staff training will begin in late February and early March with the full-time and
supervisory team attending management training, followed by leadership training
and finally the general orientation and department training for all seasonal team
members.
B. NRH2O Admission Pricing and Seasonal Salary Update
In order to assist in the hiring and retention of team members for the 2024 season,
NRH2O will be raising its seasonal salary rates for the third year in a row. All team
members will see an increase of $2.50 an hour to their starting salary. These
increases, in addition to other numerous incentives such as the year end incentive,
team member activities, complimentary tickets during the summer, and more, will
help the park attract and retain the seasonal team members that are integral to the
annual success, safety and guest satisfaction at NRH2O. Over the last three
seasons our seasonal team members have seen an increase of almost $5 an hour
and this continued investment in our team will help to keep NRH2O as the best
water park in the Metroplex.
These salary increases will be paid for by increases to the daily tickets. Both
resident and non-resident tickets will have a slight increase as shown on the
IrLp
NOKTH KICHLAN HILLS
following table. These increases will pay for the seasonal salary increase while
also still allowing the park to be competitive in the DFW market for water parks.

current forecast calls for temperatures in the mid to upper 40's during the morning
event.
D. Off-Season Projects Update
The Accelerator repair and resurface capital project has been completed. As you
can see from the pictures, the slide looks beautiful and brand new again. In
addition to making the slide look new again, this project also helped keep the slide
safe for water park guests and extended the Iifespan of the attraction. The project
was completed within two weeks and under budget by Amusement Restoration
Companies, LLC. The project savings was approximately $15,000 or 15% of the
approved budget for this capital project. As the park moves forward and project
needs are identified, we anticipate continuing to work with this company on other
slide repair and resurfacing projects.
