Staff Contact: Wendy Meyer-Jerke, Public Information Officer Grand Island Study Session - 6/17/2014 Page 3 / 123 City of Grand Island Tuesday, June 17, 2014 Study Session Item -2 Consideration to Modify Racquet Center/Tennis Association Lease Agreement Staff Contact: Todd McCoy, Parks & Recreation Director Grand Island Study Session - 6/17/2014 Page 4 / 123 Council Agenda Memo From:Todd McCoy, Parks and Recreation Director Meeting:June 17, 2014 Subject:Consideration to Modify Racquet Center/Tennis Association Lease Agreement Item #:2 Presenter(s):Todd McCoy, Parks and Recreation Director Background In May of 2010 City Council approved a lease agreement with the Grand Island Tennis Association to operate the City owned Grand Island Racquet Center Property located at 2204 Bellwood Drive. For a fee of one dollar per month the Tennis Association agreed to operate and maintain the facility for tennis activities and make planned improvements to the property. Discussion Since 2010, the Tennis Association has maintained the Racquet Center property by paying utilities costs, mowing, snow removal, etc. Several improvements have been made to the indoor courts, lights, front desk, and more. The Tennis Association has recently changed some of their goals for the Racquet Center and tennis facilities in Grand Island. Instead of building outdoor courts at the Racquet Center as originally planned in the lease agreement, the Tennis Association would like to partner with the City to build a new outdoor tennis complex at Ryder Park for public use. The Tennis Association is offering to support the project by providing $160,000 of the anticipated $300,000 to $350,000 needed to build six new tennis courts. Grand Island Study Session - 6/17/2014 Page 5 / 123 Existing Tennis Courts at Ryder Park Proposed Six Court Complex If City Council supports the Ryder Park tennis project the Racquet Center lease agreement would need to be modified to reflect the changes. Recommendation The Parks and Recreation Department supports modifying the Tennis Association lease agreement. Ryder Park is an ideal location for needed public tennis facility upgrades. New courts will be better utilized by the public at Ryder Park than the Bellwood Drive location. Grand Island Study Session - 6/17/2014 Page 6 / 123 Tennis Association Planned Improvements at the Racquet Center per 2010 Lease Agreement The Lessee agrees that in the summer of 2010 it shall: Remove indoor soccer walls and turf, and all other soccer apparatus; Complete Repair and install insulation as required due to wear and tear; Complete Replace lighting throughout the building with new, energy-efficient lighting, and install indirect heating units between courts; Complete Remove twenty-four (24) inefficient heating units and eight (8) non-functional air-conditioning units currently mounted above the court areas; Complete Resurface both west courts in a U.S. Open blue/green format and replace black curtains with new blue curtains.

In conjunction with this presentation for the use of the LB-840 fund dollars, the City also intended to apply for a $925,000 Community Development Block Grant from the Nebraska Department of Economic Development to help with the total estimated project costs for water and sewer improvements of $2,200,000. The $575,000 of LB-840 dollars would be committed and used to help achieve a portion of the 1:1 match requirement of the grant. In October of 2010 City Council approved the application of the $925,000 Economic Development Community Development Block Grant. In March of 2011, the City of Grand Island received award notification. In 2012, the actual costs for water and sanitary sewer infrastructure activities were running below the estimated costs. As a result, the City requested and was granted an amendment to the grant contract to allow for the paving of Blaine Street as an additional grant activity. In February 2013, Council also approved the use of the $575,000 LB-840 fund dollars to assist in the matching fund requirements of the paving of Blaine Street grant activity. In 2013, with Blaine Street paving complete, a contract amendment was requested and granted to reallocate excess funds reserved for the paving project back into infrastructure costs to ensure grant funds were utilized in its entirety. Grand Island Study Session - 6/17/2014 Page 34 / 123 At the June 10, 2014, City Council meeting, Certificates of Final Completion approving the complete public infrastructure improvements and Blaine Street paving were approved by City Council. This included the Sanitary Sewer District No. 527T, Water Main District 458T and Blaine Street Paving Project No 2012-P-2. Discussion The Economic Development CDBG-Platte Valley Industrial Park contract term runs six years from the date of signature which was March 25, 2011. Other milestone dates that fall into this six year term include: Two (2) years to complete the public infrastructure improvements which comprise the Project. Five (5) years to have an eligible Benefiting Business occupy a business facility site within the Spec Park and create at least 37 new, full-time positions. At least 51% of the jobs created must be held by, or made available to, low-to-moderate income (LMI) persons. The 37 positions must be maintained for one year from date of original hire for each of the jobs. This requirement does not indicate that the same individual must occupy the position during the one year time frame, but the ‘position’ remains filled with any individual that qualifies under the LMI requirements for Hall County, NE. Within these activities, the first contract milestone requirement of infrastructure improvements has been met. The second milestone of securing an eligible business is in progress. If by chance this final milestone has not been met by the contract deadline or an extension request has not been granted from the State of Nebraska; all or a portion of the $925,000 would need to be repaid. On May 12, 2014, Nebraska Department of Economic Development (NEDED) representatives came to Grand Island to collaborate with City and GIAEDC staff in regards to marketing strategies for promoting the Platte Valley Industrial Park-East to potential businesses. Randy Gard, President of GIAEDC will present an update regarding the business development plans in progress surrounding Platte Valley Industrial Park East. Conclusion This item is presented to the City Council in a Study Session to allow for any questions to be answered and to create a greater understanding of the issue at hand.

We are requesting to add one full-time Safety Range Officer. HPSP has become one of central Nebraska’s premier recreational attractions hosting numerous regional and national events such as the Rim Fire Championship, Zombies in the Heartland (The Pandemic), Glock Shooting Sports Foundation Shoot, USPSA Area 3 Pistol Championship, National 4H Open Youth Invitational and Platte River Charity Shoot, to name a few. HPSP also hosts a number of local Charity events that include Hope Harbor, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and local school organizations. HPSP supports area youth by hosting events like Boy Scouts of America Merit Badge University, Hunters Education Classes, and local high school trap teams. Recent financial data shows that the HPSP staff has made significant progress in growing the customer base and bringing new events to the area. HPSP budgets have trended positively in recent years.
