Draft MINUTES WORKSHOP MEETING VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FL JANUARY 31, 2022 6:00 PM VILLAGE HALL COUNCIL CHAMBERS CALL TO ORDER AND ROLL CALL The meeting was called to order by Mayor Frank D'Ambra III at 6:00 p.m. A roll call was taken by Deputy Clerk Mary Ann Grieser. Present were: Mayor Frank D'Ambra III, Vice -Mayor Kyle Stone, Council Member Bruce Prince, Council Member Laurie Brandon and Council Member Molly Young. AGENDA ITEMS 1. Discussion on Recreation Center Policies, Procedures, and Events Parks and Recreation Director Greg Corbitt offered information on a "soft opening" for the new Recreation Center. He indicated there was still a need for a part time employee for the department as they hosted 18-22 events per year. He asked that the first six months be dedicated to acclimating to the new facility and all of the related activity. Mayor D'Ambra III agreed that a soft opening for residents only was a good idea. Vice Mayor Stone was not in favor of a soft opening and believed non-residents should be able to utilize the Recreation Center. Council Member Brandon asked that the youth of the area be allowed at a nominal fee. Council Member Prince believed a fee could be charged for non-residents to use the facility. Mr. Corbitt stated there were three things that residents could use at the Recreation Center: open basketball, open pickle ball and the game room. Jupiter offered open play at no charge for both residents and non-residents. Agenda Item #2. Draft Manager Allen believed the total capital cost for the Recreation Center would be just over $6 million dollars. He would create a pricing fee schedule, which would include monthly, quarterly, and yearly fees, for Council to review. He would also create a schedule with limited Sunday hours, with sensitivity to Good Shepherd Church services. Additionally, a budget adjustment could be brought to Council for consideration. Pay rates were discussed for the part time worker (yet to be hired) for the Recreation Center. The furniture was still pending a delivery date, but a tentative opening around April 9th was expected. The registration process would start within the next few weeks for residents to register themselves and their family members. Council Member Prince suggested having volunteers on staff to help with staffing the center. Mrs. Pat Watkins of 167 River Drive implored Council to properly staff the department. She felt the Village was unprepared for the opening due to a lack of staff. She believed one part- time person was not enough. Ms. Abby Brennan of 523 North Dover Road addressed Council and stressed that it did not make sense to open a huge, new facility without increasing staff. She felt that at least three more staff members were needed. Additionally, Ms. Brennan felt that non-residents should be able to use the facility. Ms. Brennan felt it was an unrealistic plan to not anticipate the need for additional staff. 2.
