AGENDA TITLE: B.O.B.S. Presentation of Check for Infield Irrigation Systems
at Kofu and Salas Parks
MEETING DATE: February 3, 1993
PREPARED BY: Parks and Recreation Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council accept a check for $1,500.00 for
the purchase of irrigation supplies/materials for Kofu
and Salas Park infields. A representative of the
B.O.B.S. organization will make the presentation.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Boosters of Boys/Girls Sports organization came to
the Parks Livision about purchasing supplies and
materials to install two infield irrigation systems
at Kofu and Salas Parks. Up to this time, these
facilities would have to be hand watered (sprinklers set and moved), so now once
installed, this process would be on automatic sprinklers and would reduce a
considerable amount of parka labor. The Parks Division created an irrigation
plan and cost estimate by Park Design Aide, Steve Virrey, since all concerned
felt this is a very worthwhile project. The Parks Division has at this date
installed the first of two systems - that at Kofu Park.
We come to you this evening to make it official and ask your recognition
of the B.O.B.S. organization in stepping forward to assist us in our efforts to
improve these facilities and not using or asking fo: City money.
FUNDING: Accept a $1,500.00 check to be airected toward irrigation system
installation. No new costs t:, the City, with the exception of Park
crews to install system being required.

Dear Mr. Akin:
On behalf of the Lodi City Council, Z would like to thank
the Boys and Girls Sports Organization 1B.O.B.S.) for the
check in the amount of $1,500 which was presented by Mr.
Dick Slawson, Secretary of B.O.B.S. at the Lodi City
Council meeting of February 3, 1993.
This purchase of the irrigation system will most definitely
benefit both Kofu and Salas parks, and it is clubs such as
yours that make this happen for the people of this
community.
Once again, thank you for your Club's generosity.
truly Vo Phllip Pen
Mayor
