Appointing Citizen Members to the Metropolitan Park District Steering Committee:
County Administrator Philip Morley presented a joint City and County resolution to appoint members to
a Metropolitan Park District (MPD) Steering Committee. This will allow the recommended work of the
Exploratory Regional Parks and Recreation Committee (ERPRC) to continue. The ERPRC concluded
that the existing parks and recreation system is not sustainable and proposed the creation of a MPD. The
Commissioners and City Council approved a joint resolution in February that created a process so
citizens can create a MPD. This includes setting boundazies of the MPD, determining how the MPD
would be administered and governed, establishing funding and other specific details of creating a MPD.
This resolution appoints citizens as members of the Metropolitan Park District Committee. The
committee will make a final recommendation to the Commissioners and City Council on whether or not
to place a ballot measure before the citizens to adopt or reject a MPD. The committee will consist of
eleven citizens, representing a broad geographical cross section of the County. Member interests
include park and recreation and non-profit service providers. Alternate members may be appointed in
the future and the structure of the committee may be revised by a joint City Council and Commissioner
resolution. The draft resolution provided in the Boazd's packet has been revised to correct the spelling
of Doug Hubert to read Doug Huber.
