\"On 6 courts at, the new rec center site. Once those open, we will look at retooling our tennis courts, to something else,\" a staff member said. Staff noted prior quotes to resurface older courts were high and that the city partnership will provide new courts for community and school use.

Staff also said the broader area behind the high school is part of a phased plan. \"This is phase 1 of that and then we can, once then our tennis teams have somewhere else to go, then we can really focus on that area behind the high school,\" a board member commented, referring to longer-range site improvements that may include ball fields and other amenities.

Staff said they are meeting with partners to finalize the schedule and hope to have flyers and program times available at the open house so residents can learn when public swim hours will begin. The parks office also said the aquatic director, Chris Carr, is recruiting lifeguards and is operating temporarily from the Athletic Office; staff encouraged students and community members to contact the Athletic Office about lifeguard positions.

\"We are almost March so we got April and May 22 will be the last day for the out of school program,\" Sandra said, and she explained that families must sign up promptly when registration opens on the 20th of each month because slots fill quickly. She estimated the program typically gains \"about 5 or 6 new ones every month.\" The program provides dinner pickup on days when the out-of-school program is operating.

Sandra said the Midtown Supper Club event scheduled for April 22 is sold out. \"We are sold out. 200 seats have been sold,\" she said, describing ticket tiers and table sales. The event will feature returning and new youth chefs in training and include an Earth Day education collaboration with Erie Metro Parks.

On family programming, staff announced spring break camp dates (described in the meeting as \"the 20 fourth and the 20 fifth from 10 to 2\") and encouraged prompt registration; transcript wording did not specify calendar dates beyond the used phrasing.

Ryan gave an update on Movies by the Bay, saying the program secured a title sponsor. \"Aligned Data. That's the new business that is on the old new departure,\" he said; staff discussed confirming the sponsor's legal name as Aligned Adaptive Data Centers and said the company may host a community open house and attend some screenings.

For community safety education, parks staff announced two sessions of Safety Town in August, sponsored by the Whiteman Weaver Foundation. Safety Town registration will go live the day after the meeting and sessions are scheduled for Aug. 11–14, Monday through Thursday, with morning and afternoon graduations for participants. The program is intended for rising kindergartners (ages 5 and 6), with occasional younger children admitted depending on birthdays.

Staff asked community members to watch published registration times and said additional program details and guides for the season will be released soon.","Staff said the Midtown Supper Club has sold out its 200 seats for the April event, Movies by the Bay has a new title sponsor (Aligned Adaptive Data Centers), and staff announced registration windows for out-of-school programs, spring break camp and Safety Town sessions in August.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6283305,"City renews priority-use field agreements; Dorn Park concession area put out for RFP",115,489665,605105,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2589095-7463641e3050ae6aed8d015c01931355&start=489&end=605","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2589095-7463641e3050ae6aed8d015c01931355/thumbnail_489665.jpg","/articles/6283305/Ohio/City-renews-priority-use-field-agreements-Dorn-Park-concession-area-put-out-for-RFP","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6283305-1074d39eb6795bb81627a23c077968c8/orig.mp4?Expires=1771157256&Signature=lh32SMnuRRNI6ZSEncUS3fSHNC5mNsprcZ7K13Nij2rj37QdzjAshQzyJzLKB-Ls~Q1XFYIPDKjWVIp5ehpgbMvcoKnV22hbntbvVPwHo5zhQVZy0IH4syL076O-19GjKOIo9cnzn-EBrmT8-PQbkcoe8g0hSnePP--ZltdlWeYwoG8jjaRr5Jbtf4gSLoXOofZSfAbdOSsJ59r1f3~f~RxZFJqg7WHXVEWBCoCR02~snCuVLy08e94kMQEUmwuO-wmMBNbbmq~Q5TTcv7BE-mN3DxWw-ZNBJV-jJZfNxtjpNnd73QlZNlKvoXoqa44P9qZJUfvzoZ2lI6941fLNcA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At the meeting, parks staff reported they renewed priority-use agreements with local school districts and community leagues for the season, continuing arrangements that give groups scheduled precedence for specific fields.

\"So we've renewed all the priority use agreements that we've had in the past,\" Ryan said. He explained the agreements allocate specific fields to groups: Sandusky schools have priority for fields 1, 2 and 9; Saint Mary's uses fields 5 and 9 and also uses smaller fields; other groups named included Sandusky Fast Pitch, Sandusky Travelers, AMVETS and Panther Baseball Club. Staff said the agreements include mutual options to continue next year and that groups are expected to provide schedules and participate in field maintenance during their seasons.

Staff said the concession area at Dorn Park has been put out to bid as an RFP. \"The concession area for Dorn Park is also up for up for bid,\" Ryan said; the RFP went live the week before the meeting and staff will publish results after the bid period ends.

Parks grounds staff are prioritizing high-school fields because seasons start earlier. Ryan described equipment and timing: grounds crews will drag and turn fields as weather allows and the grounds crew planned to deliver repaired equipment (a utility Gator) to Dorn to expedite preparation.

No final awards or contract decisions were made at the meeting; staff said they will return with bid results and scheduling details when available.","Parks staff said priority-use agreements with local schools and sports clubs were renewed for the season and the Dorn Park concession area has been posted for bids; staff also discussed field-preparation scheduling.",{"_33":125,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":126,"_41":127,"_43":128,"_45":129,"_47":130,"_49":131,"_51":132,"_53":133,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":134,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":135,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6283310,"Parks staff describe H2Ohio wetland restoration, new cart paths and bridge replacement at city golf course",416,64360,480910,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2589095-7463641e3050ae6aed8d015c01931355&start=64&end=480","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2589095-7463641e3050ae6aed8d015c01931355/thumbnail_64360.jpg","/articles/6283310/Ohio/Parks-staff-describe-H2Ohio-wetland-restoration-new-cart-paths-and-bridge-replacement-at-city-golf-course","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6283310-1c7caa4a380d8ed5ab521c4904c78eda/orig.mp4?Expires=1771157256&Signature=cwt6GVBtZZl6Q54HclsGUpi5XRfRm2Q3rizYVSdJUQ-OGystg4ytSB~PWiFbS9xkVMNLRMfctG7rYdutb1xoIYbSMjsOORwtLqEKLuJOXxN09NFFxP6WF9-mUUw8XewrBieiNuP3ITUX1avZSLTwWaR5uSfLP22z9yT0aa2y~ErQL2o6i-OTEjLJ-Z5b~Ytq1ofdt84o84fXrPoFvmpA8oYWtBo3FsAX2RHUVbDdtgkziiAmKVMfzDMMXzzbvA6cPDneFKS9WQW4Es9YfPjH7UMgpJKIMEs~OrX~wJV4Ctb4~hUSRpnAs6tm-xJQa95iu6UfqbGpjD7n~87G90bxaw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Ryan, a parks department staff member, told the Sandusky Boards & Commissions meeting that two projects are planned at the city golf course: a wetland restoration through an H2Ohio grant carried out with the Erie Soil and Water Conservation District, and a separate cart-path project to improve circulation and safety.

The restoration work will focus on wetlands on the course and is being coordinated with the Erie Soil and Water Conservation District under the H2Ohio grant. \"It's our H2Ohio grama where they'll be doing a restoration of the wetlands there in those Creek Golf Course,\" Ryan said. He added staff had done a site walk and that preparations were on track though some work might roll into next season.

Staff presented details on a cart-path connector project intended to keep golf carts on designated routes. Ryan described where new paths will run, noting stake markings and pink flags on-site: \"If you go to the course now, you'll see a bunch of pink flags that are, that line kind of where that route's gonna go, and it's part of that connector trail to make sure we have, you know, a way that if we want to let carts go out, you know, and have them stick to the cart path, we can do that.\" He said the design creates separate in-and-out routes near holes 1 and 9 to prevent two-way conflicts and will not affect holes already served by existing paths on the east side of the creek.

On bridges, staff said a more robust replacement for the bridge near Hole 5 is in the final-design stage. Ryan said a replacement is planned but \"We don't have a final price on it, but I can bring that to the next meeting once we have one.\" He did not give a construction start date but said staff expect to announce a timeline when procurement is complete.

Ryan also said course improvements should increase playability and that the clubhouse-side work is on schedule: \"we're on track to open April 1.\" No formal action or procurement award was recorded during the meeting; staff said they will return with final costs and timelines when available.

Plans and site markings discussed at the meeting indicate these projects are phased: the wetland restoration is coordinated with partner agencies and may continue into next year, while the cart-path connector aims for completion before the busy season. The bridge replacement remains contingent on final design and budget approval.

Staff said they will provide updated cost estimates and construction schedules at a future meeting.","Sandusky parks staff said a wetland restoration funded by an H2Ohio grant and a separate cart-path project are underway at the municipal golf course; a more robust bridge replacement for Hole 5 is in design but a final price was not available.","actionData","errors"]
