309 Sanchez Plaza
Grand Island Police Department
Supplemental Report
Date, Time:7-17-20
Reporting Officer:Dvorak #309
Unit #:CID
Dayrin Ramirez Gonzalez is purchasing Leo's Market, DBA Sanchez Plaza, and is
applying for a class D liquor license. Dayrin is purchasing the business from
her father, Filemon Sanchez. Dayrin will be the store owner, as well as the main
employee.
In the application, I observed that Dayrin is married to Joel Segura. The
application advised that Joel is not participating in the store business, and is
not a co-applicant for the liquor license.
I noted on the application that Ramirez Gonzalez disclosed she has been
convicted of a traffic violation in/about 2010 and Disturbing the Peace in/about
2012. No other violations were disclosed. Dayrin indicated she has lived in
Grand Island for more than ten years, and has been employed at Sanchez Plaza for
at least six years.
I checked Ramirez Gonzalez through Spillman and NCJIS. I found nothing
noteworthy in Spillman records. Through NCJIS records, I located a citation for
speeding in 2017 that was not disclosed. Dayrin has a valid Nebraska Drivers
License, and no outstanding warrants for her arrest. I also checked through a
paid Law Enforcement Only database, which tends to provide mostly personal
information and details about any ongoing civil issues. No concerns were
located.
On July 14th, at 1000, NSP Investigator Jeromy McCoy and I met with Dayrin
Ramirez Gonzalez at Sanchez Plaza. Dayrin advised that she has worked at the
establishment since at least 2012, mostly in a part time fashion. Dayrin
explained that she has been handling the day to day operations, as a manager,
since about March of this year, in preparation for the purchase.
Inv McCoy had also located the citation from 2017, and asked Dayrin about it.
She advised she must have forgotten about it, and acknowledged the incident.
McCoy also asked about an NSP contact for no license on person, and Dayrin again
said she likely forgot about that incident, and acknowledged the involvement.
Daylin said she got into trouble, when she was about 14 or 15 years old, because
she was working here at Sanchez Plaza, and sold alcohol to a minor. McCoy
indicated that he found that record through the Liquor Commission records, but
it was not on Dayrin's criminal history due to her age at that time. Dayrin
indicated she has never sold to a minor again, and knows that she would threaten
her liquor license should it happen again. Dayrin said she will educate her
staff that they must get identification from every customer that purchases
alcohol.
Ramirez Gonzalez indicated she plans to work 10 hour days, 12 out of 14 days,
and will only take off one day a week. She indicated the business will be open
from 0800-2000 daily. Dayrin indicated that the business does not sell lottery,
although pickle cards are available in the adjoining restaurant area. Ramirez

Gonzalez said Sanchez Plaza does sell cigarettes, and she demonstration
knowledge of tobacco sales procedures, as well as common alcohol violations and
wholesale purchase requirements.
Dayrin disclosed that while she has never filed for bankruptcy, she is currently
in collections for one minor bill, and has less than $100 to pay before that
matter is dropped. She indicated that she will be leasing the building and
equipment, and received financing through Central Nebraska Credit Union. Dayrin
indicated that even though she is purchasing the business from her father, she
plans to take it very seriously and will not expect any family favors from
Filemon. She also indicated that Filemon will continue to help out at the
business periodically, and she can always rely on his experience and knowledge
if she encounters any issues.
The Grand Island Police Department has no objection to Dayrin Ramirez Gonzalez
receiving her Class D liquor license as the new owner, and manager, of Sanchez
Plaza.

Supplement
309 Liquor Investigation
Grand Island Police Department
Supplemental Report
New Information April 2021.
Dayrin Ramirez was investigated and approved for licensing in July 2020. On
April 6th 2021, we received a new application due to an LLC change at the
business, and the addtion of Dayrin's husband, Joel Valencia Segura, as an
active partner for the business, Leo's Market.
Because I had previously completed a full background check for Dayrin in July of
2020, I only checked on her since that date. I utilized local Spillman records,
Nebraska records, and a paid law enforcement only website. I found no new
entries of concern.
I checked on Joel Valencia Segura. I found historical traffic violations, which
were reported by Joel in the application. I also found a collections entry for
2019. However, I found that collections matter was taken care of in June of
2020, and is no longer active. I found no other entries of concern.
The Grand Island Police Department does not object to the new conditions of
Dayrin and Joel's application for the business at Leo's Market, for a Class D,
off sale only, liquor license.

#9819 - Consideration of Amending Chapter 24-3 of the Grand
Island City Code Relative to Vehicles in Parks, Hike/Bike Trails,
and Detention Cells
Staff Contact: Todd McCoy
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 43 / 190
Council Agenda Memo
From: Todd McCoy, Parks and Recreation Director
Meeting: April 27, 2021
Subject: Approve City Code Updated to Allow E-bikes and
Mobility Devices in City Parks and Trails
Presenter(s): Todd McCoy, Parks and Recreation Director
Background
Electronic bikes or e-bikes have become popular across the nation. Many states and
municipalities have had to update local laws to address the public use of the new bikes.
E-bikes are bicycles with an electric motor which can be used to assist propulsion. Many
kinds of e-bikes are available for sale, but generally fall into two broad categories. Bikes
that assist the rider's pedal-power and bikes that add a throttle, integrating moped-style
functionality. Both retain the ability to be pedaled by the rider. E-bikes use rechargeable
batteries and typically travel up 20 mph. High-powered varieties can often travel more
than 28 mph.
By State Statute the State of Nebraska has classified e-bikes that travel twenty miles per
hour or less as bicycles rather than mopeds or motorcycles.
Discussion
Currently city code does not allow motor vehicles in City Park or trails, nor does it define
e-bikes or motor driven mobility devices that assist individuals with mobility disabilities.
It is recommended that City Code Section 24-3 be updated to allow for the use of electric
assist bikes and mobility devices.
§24-3. Vehicles in Parks, Hike/Bike Trails, and Detention Cells
A) With the exception of Class 1 Electric Bicycles, Motorized Wheel Chairs, and
Other Power Driven Mobility Devices, it is unlawful for any person to operate or park
any motor vehicle, including motorcycles, minibikes, and snowmobiles, in any city park,
storm detention cell, hike/bike trail, or any portion thereof, except on the roads, paths, or
areas established therein for such operation or parking.
B) For the purpose of this section, the following definitions shall apply:
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 44 / 190
1. “Class 1 electric bicycle” means an electric bicycle that is equipped
with an electric motor that provides assistance only when the rider is pedaling
and that stops providing assistance when the electric bicycle reaches a speed of
20 miles per hour.
2. “Motorized wheelchair” means any self-propelled vehicle designed
for and used by a handicap person.
3. “Other Power Driven Mobility Devices” (OPDMD) means any
mobility device that is used by individuals with mobility disabilities for the
purpose of locomotion but is not a wheelchair. OPDMD’s shall not be capable
of speeds over 20 miles per hour
C) It is unlawful for any person to operate or park any motor vehicle, including
motorcycles, minibikes, and snowmobiles, in any storm detention cell or any
portion thereof, except on the roads, paths, or areas established therein for such
operation or parking.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1. Move to approve
2. Refer the issue to a Committee
3. Postpone the issue to future date
4. Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that City Council approve an amendment to City Code
to allow the use of electric assist bikes and mobility devices.
Sample Motion
Move to approve amending the City Code to allow the use of electric assist bikes and
mobility devices in parks and trails.

#2021-94 - Approving Re-allocation of FTE - Utility Engineering
Technician to Substation Technician
Staff Contact: Timothy Luchsinger, Aaron Schmid
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 104 / 190
Council Agenda Memo
From:Timothy Luchsinger, Utilities Director
Aaron Schmid, Human Resources Director
Meeting:April 27, 2021
Subject:Re-allocation of FTE –Engineering Technician to
Substation Technician
Presenter(s):Timothy Luchsinger, Utilities Director
Background
Utilities Department management routinely reviews its internal operations and staffing to
improve efficiency. With the recent retirement of an Engineering Technician and the
subsequent absorbing of his duties by similar positions within the Department, there is a
spare Engineering Technician position. The internal operations review has also indicated
an increased workload in various substation projects as substations age and as new
substations are added.
Discussion
The recommended reallocation will move the recently vacated Engineering Technician
position to a Substation Technician position. The authorized starting salary range for the
Substation Technician position is less than the Engineering Technician position, which
will reduce personnel costs while addressing the increased workload in the substation
maintenance group.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 105 / 190
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council approve the FTE reallocation from the
Engineering Technician classification to the Substation Technician classification.
Sample Motion
Move to approve the FTE reallocation from the Engineering Technician classification to
the Substation Technician classification.

engineering services for startup. This Variable Frequency Drive will allow for more
effective use of the centrifugal pump at Rogers Pumping Station. It will also result in
an economic benefit to reduce wasted energy while the pump is in use.
Discussion
Specifications for the Rogers Pumping Station – Pump #3 Variable Frequency Drive
were advertised and issued for bid in accordance with the City Purchasing Code. Bids
were publicly opened on March 25, 2021. The engineer’s estimate for this project was
$45,000.00.
Bidder Bid Price
Logic, Inc. – Omaha, Nebraska $28,908.44
Boyds Electrical Services Inc. – Phillips, Nebraska $30,113.85
Border States Electric – Grand Island, Nebraska $31,607.19
Bids were reviewed by plant engineering staff. Upon review it was found that there were
exceptions to the specifications from each bidder.
Logic, Inc., has an exception on the size of the enclosure specified. The enclosure is
larger than what was specified. This exception is not acceptable as the VFD will not fit
into the space without additional modifications.
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 109 / 190
Boyds Electrical Services Inc., did not provide an itemized breakdown of the material to
be included. This was a requirement of the specifications. This exception is not
acceptable as it is unknown what material is included in the bid.
Border States Electric did provide an exception to the warranty coverage. The warranty
coverage is longer than the one year specified. (18 months). This exception to the
specification is acceptable.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.

2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that Council award the Contract for the Variable

Background
On August 25, 2020, Council approved a Master Pole Attachment License Agreement
with USCOC Nebraska/Kansas LLC, (US Cellular) a limited liability registered to do
business in Nebraska, to place wireless antenna facilities on City light poles. The

NDOT for Five Points Intersection
Staff Contact: John Collins, P.E. - Public Works Director
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 119 / 190
Council Agenda Memo
From:Keith Kurz PE, Assistant Public Works Director
Meeting:April 27, 2021
Subject:Approving Program Agreement Supplement No. 1 with
NDOT for Five Points Intersection
Presenter(s):John Collins PE, Public Works Director
Background
On February 14, 2017, via Resolution No. 2017-34, City Council approved an agreement
with Olsson Associates of Lincoln, Nebraska, in the amount of $72,550.00 for
engineering services related to Five Points Signal and Geometric Improvements. This
project was for the improvement of the 5 Points intersection in areas of both lane use and
traffic signal operation. The existing cable span signals were to be replaced with new
mast arm signals, improvement of existing roadway geometrics, evaluation of existing
lane configurations for operation, and installation of signing improvements to meet 2009
MUTCD requirements in the area of this intersection.
During the course of Olsson Associates engineering services work on this project it was
recommended that a study of the entire area surrounding the 5 Points intersection be
considered. Further study allowed for examination of the Five Points intersection to aid in
specifically reducing the incidence of crashes; reducing vehicle delay, improving the
mobility of the traveling pedestrians and correcting roadway geometric deficiencies.
Public Works applied for Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) safety funds
to help with costs of the 5 Points intersection improvements. The project was selected as
a NDOT safety project, with Federal-aid funding available through NDOT. The federal
share payable on any portion of a local federal-aid project is a maximum of 80% of the
eligible participating costs, while the Local Public Agency (LPA) is responsible for the
remaining 20% as well as all other nonparticipating or ineligible costs of the project. The
estimate of this project was $2,265,300.00, with the LPA share being $565,300.00, and
the Federal share payable capped at $1,700,000.00.
Such project consists of geometric improvements with a multi-lane roundabout and will
right size the lane configuration to optimize safety and efficiency, and meet the Federal
Highway Administration (FHWA) safety program requirements.
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 120 / 190
Discussion
Program Agreement Supplement No. 1 is being presented to City Council to increase the
funding cap originally established in the Program Agreement from $1,700,000.00 to
$2,640,000.00. The funding split will remain at 80% federal Highway Safety
Improvement Project (HSIP) funding and 20% match from the Local Public Agency
(LPA). The current estimate for the project is $3,560,158.81.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council approve a resolution authorizing the
Mayor to sign the Program Agreement Supplement No. 1.
Sample Motion
Move to approve the resolution.

#2021-100 - Approving Updated Parking Regulations
Staff Contact: John Collins, P.E. - Public Works Director
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 136 / 190
Council Agenda Memo
From:Keith Kurz PE, Assistant Public Works Director
Meeting:April 27, 2021
Subject:Consideration of Approving Updated Parking Regulations
Presenter(s):John Collins PE, Public Works Director
Background
Council action is required to designate parking restrictions on any public street. As changes are
approved the City Council will also approve the master list of parking designations/restrictions.
Discussion
The Public Works Department received a written request from the Railside Business
Improvement District asking that the twenty (20) minute parting restriction in front of 515 West
3rd Street be removed. The subject property is vacant and removal of the parking restriction
would allow for additional parking for businesses in this block.
Upon evaluation, it was determined that the twenty (20) minute parking restriction is no longer
necessary and the area businesses would be better served by eliminating the time restriction.
The Public Works Department also received a phone request from the business owner of 124
West 4th Street requesting a two (2) hour parking time restriction on Locust Street, on the west
side of the building. Per the owner there is very little turnover of parking on this block, leaving
limited parking for customers.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand. The
Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 137 / 190
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council approve the resolution removing the twenty
(20) minute parking restriction in front of 515 West 3rd Street and adding a two (2) hour parking
time restriction on Locust Street, on the west side of 124 West 4th Street.
Sample Motion
Move to approve the resolution.

The Railside Business Improvement District is requesting the 20 Minute parking
sign located at 515 West Third Street be removed. This address is currently
vacant. Removing this restriction would allow for additional parking for
businesses in this block.

Background
Public Works is taking a proactive approach in rehabilitating sanitary sewer throughout the City to
avoid failures. This project will fix known pipe breaks on sewer mains in difficult to access
locations. The first part of the engineering work was for investigation and conceptual design.
Various alternatives such as open cut repairs or pipe lining solutions were looked at to fix known
issues. Existing conditions of the pipe with video inspections, local site conditions, and property
owners were reviewed and evaluated.
On March 27, 2021 the Engineering Division of the Public Works Department advertised for
bids for Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation- Various Locations; Project No. 2020-S-8.

#2021-102 - Approving 90% Plans for Five Points Intersection
Staff Contact: John Collins, P.E. - Public Works Director
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 158 / 190
Council Agenda Memo
From:Keith Kurz PE, Assistant Public Works Director
Meeting:April 27, 2021
Subject:Approving 90% Plans for Five Points Intersection
Presenter(s):John Collins PE, Public Works Director
Background
On February 14, 2017, via Resolution No. 2017-34, City Council approved an agreement
with Olsson Associates of Lincoln, Nebraska, in the amount of $72,550.00 for
engineering services related to Five Points Signal and Geometric Improvements. This
project was for the improvement of the 5 Points intersection in areas of both lane use and
traffic signal operation. The existing cable span signals were to be replaced with new
mast arm signals, improvement of existing roadway geometrics, evaluation of existing
lane configurations for operation, and installation of signing improvements to meet 2009
MUTCD requirements in the area of this intersection.
During the course of Olsson Associates engineering services work on this project it was
recommended that a study of the entire area surrounding the 5 Points intersection be
considered. Further study allowed for examination of the Five Points intersection to aid in
specifically reducing the incidence of crashes; reducing vehicle delay, improving the
mobility of the traveling pedestrians and correcting roadway geometric deficiencies.
Public Works applied for Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) safety funds
to help with costs of the 5 Points intersection improvements. The project was selected as
a NDOT safety project, with Federal-aid funding available through NDOT. The federal
share payable on any portion of a local federal-aid project is a maximum of 80% of the
eligible participating costs, while the Local Public Agency (LPA) is responsible for the
remaining 20% as well as all other nonparticipating or ineligible costs of the project. The
estimate of this project was $2,265,300.00, with the LPA share being $565,300.00, and
the Federal share payable capped at $1,700,000.00.
Program Agreement Supplement No. 1 is being presented to City Council to increase the
funding cap originally established in the Program Agreement from $1,700,000.00 to
$2,640,000.00. The funding split will remain at 80% federal Highway Safety
Improvement Project (HSIP) funding and 20% match from the Local Public Agency
(LPA). The current estimate for the project is $3,560,158.81.
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 159 / 190
Discussion
At this time the City’s approval of the 90% project plans is necessary to continue moving
forward with the Five Points Intersection improvements.
The improvement for the Five Points Intersection include geometric improvements with a
multi-lane roundabout and will right size the lane configuration to optimize safety and
efficiency, and meet the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) safety program
requirements.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council approve the resolution giving formal
approval of the 90% project plans for the Five Points Intersection.
Sample Motion
Move to approve the resolution.

#2021-103 - Approving Bid Award for Integrated Library System
(ILS)
Staff Contact: Celine Swan
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 162 / 190
Council Agenda Memo
From:Celine Swan, Library Director
Meeting:April 27, 2021
Subject:Approving Bid Award for Integrated Library System at
Grand Island Public Library
Presenter(s):Celine Swan, Library Director
Background
Since 2011, Grand Island Public Library has been part of the Nebraska Pioneer Integrated
Library System (ILS) Consortium utilizing the Progressive Federal Technology Systems
(PTFS) Koha ILS (2011-2020) and after a product upgrade in May 2020 by PTFS to their
Bibliovation ILS.
Integrated Library Systems are a crucially necessary software system that manages all
operational aspects of library service including circulation, cataloging/inventory, patron,
acquisitions, and accounting of library fees and fines assessed. Fully automated ILS
systems are also a requirement of the Nebraska Library Commission and Institute of
Museum and Library Services for library accreditation to be eligible for state and federal
grant award money.
Due to both unacceptable performance issues with the Bibliovation ILS and the
impending dissolution of the Pioneer Consortium, it was necessary for Grand Island
Public Library to evaluate replacements for the current ILS to continue providing service
to library patrons and remain eligible for grant money.
Discussion
Specifications for replacement ILS software were advertised for bid in accordance with
City Purchasing Code. Bids were publically opened on April 13, 2021. Bidders were:
Biblionix, Inc. – Austin, Texas
Equinox Initiative – Norcross Georgia
Innovative Interfaces, Inc. – Emeryville, California
Insignia Software – Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
The Library Corporation (TLC) – Inwood, West Virginia
SirsiDynix – Lehi, Utah
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 163 / 190
After thorough software demonstrations and reviews of submitted RFP bids by the
Library selection committee, it was determined that only three bidders met enough of the
outlined specifications of RFP for full consideration: The Library Corporation,
SirsiDynix, and Innovative Interfaces. Upon further discussion with the committee and a
check of provided references, the Library recommends awarding the winning bid to The
Library Corporation.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council award The Library Corporation of
Inwood, West Virginia, the lowest-responsive bidder of the three passing bids, for five
years of service, in the amount of $96,225.00.
Sample Motion
Move to approve the bid in the amount of $96,225.00 from The Library Corporation of
Inwood, West Virginia, for the Grand Island Public Library Integrated Library System.

Staff Contact: Todd McCoy
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 167 / 190
Council Agenda Memo
From:Todd McCoy, Parks and Recreation Director
Meeting:April 27, 2021
Subject:Purchase of One (1) Bobcat Tool Cat Unit for Parks
Operations
Presenter(s):Todd McCoy, Parks and Recreation Director
Background
On November 10, 2020 City Council approved Resolution #2020-290 for the purchase of
two (2) new Jacobsen Turfcat 72” cut Mowers for a total of $60,484.00.
The Parks Division was informed April 1, 2021 that the approved mowers are no longer
available.
Discussion
Because the mowing season is here, staff is recommending getting by this summer with
existing equipment and delaying the purchase for the new mowers until next year so that
research can be completed to find suitable replacements.
Staff recommends utilizing the allotted funding to purchase a Bobcat Toolcat Utility Unit
that was originally planned to be a 2022 budget request.
The equipment specifications for the Bobcat unit listed by Nebraska State Construction
Contract #15336 meet the requirements for the Parks Division. Central Nebraska Bobcat
of Grand Island, Nebraska submitted a bid for the equipment with no exceptions in the
amount of $60,376.77. The purchase will be funded from capital account 41044401-
85615.
The Toolcat unit will be used as a snow blower, sweeper, loader, stumper, and mower
with attachments.

#2021-105 - Consideration of Approving Request for Proposals for
Naming Rights for Grand Island Community Fieldhouse
Staff Contact: Jerry Janulewicz
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 171 / 190
Council Agenda Memo
From:Jerry Janulewicz, City Administrator
Meeting:April 27, 2021
Subject:Request for Proposals for Naming Rights for Grand
Island Community Fieldhouse
Presenter(s):Jerry Janulewicz, City Administrator
Background
The lease agreement by and between the City of Grand Island, Nebraska State Fair
Board, Hall County Livestock and Improvement Association, and Fonner Park
Exposition and Event Center, Inc. permits naming rights arrangement for the Fieldhouse
in return for monetary donations. However, to our knowledge the City has not previously
entered into contractual arrangements for naming rights for a city building or facility. The
City has previously agreed to the placement of signage acknowledgement of donations
received for recreation facilities and artistic works. In addition, various parks are named
to honor persons of note in the community, such as Grace Abbott Park, Ryder Park, and
Buechler Park. Because naming rights appears to be a new approach for funding,
Administration seeks City Council approval prior to the issuance of a Request for
Proposals for Fieldhouse naming rights.
Discussion
The Fieldhouse land lease agreement between the City, Fonner Park Exposition and
Events Center, Hall County Livestock Improvement Association, and the Nebraska State
Fair Board provides that the Fieldhouse shall not be named without the prior written
approval of the City and the Nebraska State Fair Board provided, however, that the
Nebraska State Fair Board shall not unreasonably withhold its consent. The lease also
provides that the name shall include a designation for 4-H and/or FFA, as more
specifically identified by the Nebraska State Fair Board. This naming arrangement differs
from that provided for the other state fair buildings whereby naming requires approval of
the State Fair Board and Fonner Park Exposition and Events Center, with monetary
donations split between the two parties.
The State Fair Board and Fonner Park Exposition and Events Center have successfully
pursued naming rights for buildings located at Fonner including the Pinnacle Bank Expo
Center, Five Points Bank Arena, Tom Dinsdale Auto Cattle Barn, and Aurora
Grand Island Council Session - 4/27/2021 Page 172 / 190
Cooperative Pavilion. Naming rights agreements are typically for a 10-year term with
annual financial donations provided during the contract terms.
The success enjoyed by the State Fair Board and Fonner Park Exposition and Events
Center in attracting monetary donations in exchange for naming rights lends support for a
belief that the City of Grand Island could receive monetary donations to support the
Fieldhouse and recreational activities at the Fieldhouse. This may be even more the case
with the recent announcement of a casino, hotel, and other facilities to be located at
Fonner Park.
Council should be aware that informal inquiries have been received seeking to provide
monetary donations for the construction or reconstruction of city recreation facilities in
exchange for naming rights for the facilities. Council action regarding the Fieldhouse will
likely set a precedence for future opportunities.
Conclusion
This item is presented to the City Council for approval of the resolution which, if
approved, provides authority for issuance of an RFP for naming rights for the Grand
Island Community Fieldhouse.
Sample Motion
Move to approve the resolution approving the issuance of a RFP for naming rights for the
Grand Island Community Fieldhouse.

Facility Information and History:
The Grand Island Community Fieldhouse is located at 525 East Fonner Park Road, Grand
Island, Nebraska on the Fonner Park/Nebraska State Fair campus. Constructed in 2009, the
Community Fieldhouse is a 70,000 square foot facility that includes indoor batting cages, turf
sports fields, basketball courts, volleyball courts, meeting rooms, and a children's playground. A
wide range of activities is offered: youth sports, adult sports, and birthday parties. The
Community Fieldhouse is also utilized for large community service events such as serving as a
location for the Central District Health Department COVID-19 vaccination program.
In addition to the City’s recreation and community programs and events, the Nebraska State
Fair Board utilizes the Community Fieldhouse during the annual Nebraska State Fair and for a
set up and tear down period prior to and following the fair. During the State Fair, the
Community Fieldhouse hosts displays and exhibits focusing on youth 4-H and Future Farmers
