To: Cc: Mark Duncan and Debi Braddick From: Maria Slippen Date: February 19, 2024 Re: Referrals At our meeting on 2/15, the RAC discussed the items referred to us by the BOT and submit the following recommendations ● Regarding the possibility of having outdoor recreational activities at Gouveia Park during the short-term (next 12 months) - The RAC does not recommend any specific programming organized by the Recreation Department, but suggests the installation of portable bathrooms and garbage cans, and perhaps some additional picnic tables or benches (if it can be done temporarily and at a low cost). Additionally, we suggest that some language about the park be added to the Spring Recreation brochure (which is currently in production) as well as some information be added to the village newsletter. ● Regarding the possibility of amending the Village Code to permit dogs on-leash at Gouveia Park - The RAC recommends amending the code to allow dogs on leash at Gouveia. Along with this recommendation is the need for updated signage to remind residents of the leash law and to pick up after dogs. Additionally, we had a long discussion about making disposable waste bags available, and do not recommend doing so at this time.
