Loading...
Summary
The Gahanna Parks & Recreation Board approved two fee waivers for local school programs and voted to approve corrected minutes from prior meetings. Roll-call votes were unanimous on the recorded items.
The Gahanna Parks & Recreation Board voted to approve two fee waivers and adopted corrected minutes from prior meetings at its regular session. The waivers include a shelter reservation request from Gahanna High Point Elementary for Friendship Park on April 17; staff indicated the date was available and the memo lists the waiver value.
Board members addressed a small wording error in the organizational minutes under "election of vice chair and of chair" and asked staff to correct a phrasing omission. Jan Ross moved to approve both sets of minutes as amended; Ken Shepherd seconded. The motion passed on a roll-call vote with the board members recorded as voting "Yes."
On the fee waivers, staff summarized that both requests were previously approved last year and recommended approval again. A board member moved to approve both waiver requests. After a brief clarification that one request benefits middle-school students (middle school east) rather than the higher-grade GMAC designation in the memo, the board voted by roll call. Eric Miller, Donna Simmons, Christine Kaminski, Jan Ross and Ken Shepherd were recorded as voting "Yes," and the chair declared the motion approved.
The board did not identify any additional conditions on the waivers. The meeting proceeded to the director's report and program presentations after these formal actions.
