5. Discussion Items
5.1 Preliminary Review of 2023 Senior Programs Budget
Facility Superintendent reviews budget/measures and goals. To note: Membership
value added items being considered include free open skate, ability to rent the Senior
Activity Center space, free admission to High School games if it can be worked out
with the school and evening offerings.

5.2 Preliminary review of 2023 FTCenter budget
Facility Superintendent reviews budget. Of note: Insurance is increasing.
Chair Dave Williams reviews potential changes in team structure of FTCenter,
including moving current Assistant Facility Supervisor Billy Hunter to new role as
Assistant Facility Superintendent. Create “Manager on Duty”(MOD) position and
hire two. MOD would be placed at a lower grade/compensation.
Commissioner Matt Westgaard inquires about the max capacity of hours and turf
possible to sell, and how close the FTCenter is to reaching that number now- is
$805,000 a realistic goal for 2023? He also suggests a review of our current fee
structure for ice, including budgeting for branding, suggested we establish the
Commission’s goal for the budget each year.
Facility Superintendent Dalton suggests the Commission establish a standard
schedule of standing agenda items for specific months of the year. I.e. Review fee
schedule in May, review budget in August, etc.
6. Action Items
6.1 Lay Concrete Pad
Commission asked for details about the quotes.
No motion made. Commission appreciated the offer from Furniture and Things to
donate outside furniture, however there is no money in the budget to pay for the
concrete at this time.
7. Superintendent’s Update
By consensus, Commission approved the stainless backlit logo w/noted proportions
to be located on the slat wall under the steps.
Special Meeting will be called to finalize budget recommendations on Wednesday,
August 3. Currently not planning on meeting Monday, August 8, 2022.
