cial Resolution Book)
Mayor Lynch stated that he had recently met with Broth-
ers Coming Together (BCT) to discuss their involvement with the
Pompey Park Advisory Committee since Pompey Park was the location
for the organization's weekly picnic. He noted that four of the
members of this organization were appointed to the Committee and
that the responsibilities of the Committee were at the discretion
of the Director of Parks and Recreation.
Concern was expressed by Dr. Alperin that this resolu-
tion will create another formal City Advisory Board and would
also create a bypass of the City's Parks and Recreation Depart-
ment by giving the Committee direct contact with the Commission.
Discussion ensued regarding the Pompey Park Advisory
Committee working directly with the Director of Parks and Recrea-
tion, or his designated liaison, and should there be any diffi-
culty regarding any problems, then the Committee could feel free
to contact the Commission.
The City Manager pointed out that Pompey Park is a City
owned facility and there have been concerns expressed in refer-
ence to its aspects and operations.
Mayor Lynch stated that he had mixed emotions regarding
the Committee. He felt that it would be a more efficient
operation to have the Committee deal directly with the Parks and
Recreation Department; however, he felt it would be a good
learning experience for the Committee to work with the
Commission. He suggested that it would more expeditious for the
Committee to work directly with the Parks and Recreation
Department.

It was emphasized by the City Manager that if the
Commission decides to have the Pompey Park Advisory Committee
report directly to the Parks and Recreation Department, it should
be made very clear that should there the Committee have any
problems they would be very welcomed to address the Commission.
Me added that it seemed to be the perception of the Committee
that some of their concerns have only gotten as far as the Direc-
tor of Parks and Director and perhaps this issue needed to be
reviewed.
Dr. Alperin commented that if there that is a problem
with the system, then perhaps the system needs to be corrected.
It was pointed out by Mr. Randolph that only one person
is responsible to make those changes, that being the City Manag-
er. Mr. Randolph did not feel it was the Commission's role.
Mrs. Smith moved to create the Pompey Park Advisory
Committee and that it be the discretion for the Committee to
determine whether or not they would prefer to report directly to
the Director of Parks and Recreation or become a formal City
Board, seconded by Mr. Lynch. (Mayor Lynch passed the gavel to
Commissioner Alperin in order to second the motion). Upon roll .
call the Commission voted as follows: Mrs. Smith - Yes; Vice i
Mayor Alperin - No; Mr. Ellingsworth - No; Mr. Randolph - Yes; ~
Mr. Lynch - Yes. The motion passed with a vote of 3 to 2.
Prior to the Commission's action on Resolution No.
70-94, the City Attorney suggested that the last sentence of
Section (6) of the resolution be modified.
The City Manager stated that he would prefer to have
the Committee meet and determine how they would like to operate
and then have the Commission take formal action. Me agreed that
Section 6 of the Resolution should be amended. Also, that he
would have staff contact the nine individuals who are under
consideration to complete the City's Board application form.
It was noted by the City Attorney that staff would need
direction so that there is one youth member on each of the sub-
committees.
The Commission felt that the Committee should include
young people between the ages of thirteen through nineteen.
Mrs. Smith moved to postpone action on Resolution No.
70-94, seconded by Mr. Randolph. Upon roll call the Commission
voted as follows: Dr. Alperin - No; Mr. Ellingsworth - No; Mr.
Randolph - Yes; Mayor Lynch - Yes; Mrs. Smith - Yes. Said motion
passed with a 3 to 2 vote.
