County Commission Quarterly Report April16, 2018

Update on Valeo Behavioral Health Care, Inc.

Presented to: Commissioners Cook, Archer, & Buhler

Presented by: Bill D. Persinger, Jr., CEO

T I

Financial Report: The 3/31/2018 financial statements will be sent in prior to our April 16 presentation, or will be presented at that meeting.

Annual Report to County: Valeo Board Chairman, Frank Henderson, will make our Annual Report to the Commission on May 21 51 on behalf of the Board.

KDADS Task Force: Last fall, I was appointed to serve on this task force by Sen. Hensley. Our work concluded prior to the start of the '18 Legislative Session, and a report was generated by the Secretary. This report has been widely reviewed and relied upon as guidance in public policy for behavioral healthcare.

Grant-Writing/Fund-Raising/Information:

• We fully executed an agreement (1/1/18 through 12/31/18) with KDADS that provides $500,000 for The Residence, our community crisis center; a 24/7/365 walk-in facility at 400 SW Oakley Avenue. These dollars go towards professional security, improved access to psychiatric medication, and other enhanced services. It also covers about 18% of the cost of serving the un-insured/under-insured at The Residence. Current estimates reveal that serving the un-insured at The Residence costs an average of $73, 153/month. This award also allows us to expand our Co-Responder Program to 24/7. The Co-Responder Program is a partnership between Valeo and the Topeka Police Department, and also involves the Shawnee County Sheriff's Officers as needed.

• Our znd Annual Fund-Raiser, "Un-Masking Stigma", will be October 20 at the Capitol Plaza Hotel, and will feature Jennifer Ayers-Moore, sister of Nathaniel Ayers, whose struggles with mental illness were portrayed in the movie, "The Soloist". Back by popular demand will be last year's emcee, Melissa Brunner, and live mask auctioneer, Matt Pivarnik!

• May is "Mental Health Month". Valeo and its affiliates will be getting a great deal of information out to the community about mental health problems and mental illness.

Local Collaborations (just a few highlights):

• We're actively involved with a violence prevention initiative sponsored by the Peace and Justice Center.

• We serve on the Mayor's Task Force Against Domestic Violence.

1

.. • I've been appointed as a Section Leader for Freedom Now USA. We'd like to say "Thank

You!" to the Commission for your active endorsement of this first-of-its-kind movement, and to The Rescue Mission for taking the lead on this.

• We're also active with an effort organized by Police Chief Cochran and Fire Chief Duke to develop a Para-Medicine program.

• We helped initiate a very successful drug take-back day last summer, and are partnering in preparation for another one this coming July.

• In partnership with The Rescue Mission and other organizations, we were active again this year with the "point in time count" of persons who are experiencing homelessness.

• We commend the efforts of the Shawnee County Health Department regarding their work on producing valuable health-rankings and health outcomes data. Their presentation on April 9, sponsored by Heartland Healthy Neighborhoods and TSCPL, raised issues and awareness, and, amongst many other trends, noted the importance of mental health and social/environmental factors in one's personal health and the health of a community.

• We continue our work with numerous other groups focused on expanding Medicaid/KanCare.

• A Valeo team has been working closely with The Hon. Lori Daugherty-Bichsel, and other professionals in the municipal court/legal system, to make improvements in the Alternative Sentencing Court (ASC) Program. The ASC Program is designed to provide an opportunity for recovery from mental illness and/or addiction for eligible persons charged with certain offenses, and is partially supported by a grant from the City of Topeka and KDADS. We would also like to take this opportunity to state that both the City and County court and legal system, as well as law enforcement, are working more closely than ever with Valeo to promote recovery in the community vs. in a psychiatric hospital.

Public Policy: We're watching HB2517 (lottery vending machine bill) that, if enacted into law, would provide funding specifically for community crisis centers, such as The Residence here in Topeka.

Thank you for your support of our unique Mission!

Aquatic Centers/Community Pools/Splash Pads Shawnee County Parks + Recreation is responsible for:

3 Aquatic Centers (Blaisdell, Shawnee North and MidWest Health) 2 Splash Pads (Domwood and Samuel Jackson) 4 Community Pools (Garfield, Hillcrest, Oakland and Rossville)

Annual projects at these aquatic facilities will be identified and scheduled to allow for appropriate

painting of pool basins, repair of concrete decks and basins, renovation of features such as slides and

other amenities, as well as other building renovations. Each aquatic facility involves a highly complex system of piping, valves, pumps, disinfection equipment, etc. The need to maintain the highest water quality at each of these facilities is a life-safety requirement for their continued operation and

generation of revenues.

Annual cost of painting pools could range from $30,000- $60,000. Other scheduled maintenance would include resurfacing or replacing slides at these facilities with

annual costs ranging from $10,000- $100,000 or more depending on what is done and which slide or

amenity is worked on.

Shawnee 1 ~ounty "-.', , f ~ P.arKS + . -!. recreat1on

Each of the aquatic facilities has a full complement of restroom facilities, guard offices and concession area. Restroom fixtures, partitions, surfaces, etc. are old and in need of replacement and renovation. Cost for this type of work could range from $5,000 at one of the smaller newer venues to

as much as $75,000 at a facility like Blaisdell where the restrooms are in need of a full renovation.

Garfield Pool (repaint), Hillcrest renovation, Blaisdell Blaisdell plumbing renovations and painting. Shawnee North renovation, (repaint), slide enhancements and replacement. dragon slide repairs, and feature repair. Garfield pump

Carpeting/Flooring/Painting Shawnee County Parks+ Recreation are responsible for 157 buildings. Each of the buildings needs to be regularly painted inside and out and flooring, whether carpet or tile, replaced when it becomes worn. There are 9 community centers with a total of 114,4 7 6 square feet of space, 161,625 if you include gym space. These centers as well as other buildings like the Administrative Offices, golf course pro shops, mini-train depot, and all of the shelter houses need regular care to keep them in good condition for our patrons and visitors.

Water Quality Water quality is a concern in any large park system with bodies of water. It is especially a concern to Shawnee County Parks + Recreation not only for our signature location Lake Shawnee but also for smaller bodies of water throughout the park system such as Westlake in Gage Park, Clarion Woods Pond in Clarion Woods Park, Central Park Lake in Central Park and others. Each of these areas has their own special and particular concern but each centers on water quality. We know that several of our waters, especially Lake Shawnee, have an ongoing problem with the invasive aquatic plant Eurasian Milfoil. Intervening years between the treatment at Lake Shawnee the department should plan on aggressively managing water quality issues through a combination of in-house work and the application for grants for best management practices related to water quality. -

Lake/Beach Access Facilities Access to Lake Shawnee and amenities like the swim beach and the marina mean the care and maintenance of docks and ramps. Improved access to the water also means the addition of ramps at currently underserved locations. An allocation of $25,000 every other year will allow parks + recreation to replace old docks and ramps and add new ones

to keep them up to date and fully functional.

Landscaping Shawnee County Parks + Recreation maintains many landscaped areas including the Ted Ensley

Gardens at Lake Shawnee, The Old Prairie Town Botanical Garden, the Reinisch Rose Garden in Gage Park and many individual landscaped areas throughout the park system. Landscapes grow

old and need rejuvenated from time to time so there is an ongoing need to purchase replacement plants. Hardscapes at gardens and landscaped areas have a lifespan so from time to time new walls need to be built, pergolas repaired, furniture replaced, etc. Also, many of our landscaped areas do not have an automatic irrigation system requiring staff to spend many hours during the season moving and setting up hoses to keep the beds watered. The addition of irrigation systems is a must

that will free up staff to take care of other issues. Allocating up to $75,000 per year will allow the department to keep up with the needs and refurbish landscaped areas keeping them fresh for our

patrons.

Parks and Playgrounds Shawnee County Parks + Recreation has a strategy that states, "In existing parks, upgrade aging park amenities, add new improvements and provide quality maintenance based on community expectations, departmental maintenance standards, budget parameters, and available park capital improvement funding. " To accomplish this strategy the removal and replacement of aging playground equipment and surfacing is essential. In playgrounds where older equipment is detached, the department will also replace and/or combine elements into a single contained edge facility with fall zones for all playgrounds and apparatus. The department additionally will install walkways connecting these areas and provide sufficient trash receptacles throughout parks and provide tamper resistant connections to deter theft of these cans.

Park Roads and Parking Lots Shawnee County Parks + Recreation maintain _ miles of asphalt roads and _ square feet of parking

lots throughout the park system. The department budget for road and parking lot repairs is $20,000 for in-house repairs and approximately half that for contract work. That amount obviously barely makes a

dent in the ongoing needs to maintain our roads and parking lots. Parks + Recreation should, on an annual basis, make road repairs and mill and overlay parking lots to ensure that all roads and parking

lot are in good shape on a consistent basis. The work needs to be done on a rotating basis so that at the end of a pre-determined period all roads and parking lots are refurbished and the process starts over. The initial work needs to be accelerated so that the worst roads and parking lots can be done first, at

one time. It should be pointed out that some parking lots, Lake Shawnee Swim Beach parking lot, are in such bad shape that it needs to be completely replaced and curbs and lighting added as part of the

project. There are other parking lots like this throughout the system.

Sign age Shawnee County Parks + Recreation has developed standard sign type and style to assist in developing a brand for the department In addition there are a number of electronic message centers throughout the system that need updated and other parks that are in need of an electronic message center. Neighborhood parks, community parks and regional parks will each have a standard sign type. Natural areas will have enhanced signage that will be interpretive in nature describing to visitors what they are seeing. Parks that were acquired by the department as part of the Federal Lands to Parks Program administered through the National Parks Service and parks that have received funding as part of the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) also needs to be consistent to department branding.

Community Center System Assessment: Since the consolidation and assumption of the responsibility for all City and County parks and recreational facilities, the department has operated and maintained the existing system of nine (9) community centers located throughout the City of Topeka and Shawnee County. Proposed for the community center system by the Master Plan, indicated the potential for substantial ($9 M) capital re-investments for all centers. However, these CIP proposals appear to be mainly based on the physical nature of the existing facilities and not associated with any type of future programming needs, increased patron use, or visions for future operations. The Recreation Center Study was approved by the Advisory/ Advocacy Board last fall.

Restroom Renovation There are a minimum of 7 5 restroom facilities throughout the park system. These include stand alone restrooms, restrooms in shelters, community centers, aquatic facilities and restrooms

associated with sports facilities. The restrooms in aquatic centers and community centers are being addressed elsewhere in this plan. These renovations will focus on the stand alone

facilities and the facilities that are associated with shelters and sports facilities. In many cases these restrooms are old and out dated and in serious need of a facelift. This work will range from $10,000- $25,000 per facility depending on size ofthe facility and the scope of the work. Work would generally include replacing fixtures, partitions and surfaces.

These range from our largest community center to our smallest open air shelter. Roof types vary from rubber membrane, to asphalt shingles, shake shingles, metal panels and slate. Each of these types of roofs has a different lifespan and specific needs. There needs to be a very definite replacement schedule that covers all of the roofs and types to protect the structures and contents of the structures from the outside elements.

Sidewalks/Trails Currently the department manages over 27 miles of concrete trails with more being added annually. In general these trails are in good shape but there are at times needs for repairs to damaged and broken slabs as well as an ongoing need to create connections from trails to park amenities. Additionally, there are numerous linear feet of walks, connections, etc. that are in varying stages of disrepair.

Sport Court Resurfacing The department is responsible for 82 outdoor sport courts throughout the park system. These include tennis, pickleball, basketball and one accessible baseball diamond. Most of these courts see significant use. Generally you can expect to resurface on a 6-8 year cycle. Kossover Tennis Center, an 18 court tennis complex, is currently being resurfaced at a cost of $104,000. That works out to $5,777 /court. An allocation of $62,000/year for sport court resurfacing will allow the department to stay on a 7 -year resurfacing cycle. The amounts needed per court may reach $10,000 -$12,000 if foundation or subsurface needs become necessary. Additionally the department is conducting a review of existing sport courts for removal or repurposing unproductive sport courts and sport fields where deterioration is seen and return to open parkland that is less expensive to maintain.

Sport Turf Replacement Shawnee County Parks + Recreation currently have six baseball infields that have artificial turf infields. The oldest Jerry Robertson was replaced this winter. We also manage an artificial ~multipurpose field that is used primarily for soccer. A typical life span of artificial turf infields is 6-8 years of use. The lifespan of an artificial turf field can be somewhat dependent on amount of play and type of play. There have been discussions between parks + recreation and some user groups about adding to the number of artificial turf infields by converting some of our conventional surface infields to artificial turf. The presence of artificial turf increases playability in inclement weather and reduces day-to-day maintenance needs of the facility. Sports turf in numerous other applications other than artificial, likewise need renewed and refreshed periodically as well.

Tech noloi!VIIT Shawnee County Parks + Recreation are behind our peers in terms of technology capability in parks and other facilities. There is an identified need to upgrade department capacity in allowing

park patron's access to Wi-Fi, charging stations, computer access at facilities, etc. The Shawnee

County IT Department does no~ have the funding necessary to assist in the cost of such

improvements. There is also a need to exten4 fiber capacity to a number of existing department facilities. Again, the IT Department does not have the funding for this and at this point the parks +

Recreation Department does not either. Significant cost savings as the department transitions from

print program guides to on-line guides. Additional transition of registration from mail-in and call- l

in to on-line will see a savings is personnel. Increased efficiencies and accountability will also be

realized with periodic implementation of point-of-sale systems.

Roberts - to Knight - if it doesn't get to the amount you have to have, are we going to lose viability of something?

Knight- Not yet, it would not be hard but it is not finished.

Roberts - I would like to see from a health and safety standpoint that we identify the essentialwater, ADA, liability, whatever it may be; not that all of the requests are not important but public safety needs identified. I would like it to be identified. How does the County not know how much money they have left over?

Knight - the best way I can explain that is they still have bills coming in so they should know more in March.

Ledbetter- on prioritization, we have to do ADA requirements when a center doesn't have an elevator, buckling trails is a health and safety issue, roofs leaking like in Ward Mead Park, artifacts in danger of being ruined, plus possibilities of mulch I consider health and safety so I would like all ofthat included in the prioritization.

Roberts -just so I am clear, health and safety highest priority, then 2nd level or pending liability issue would be a leaking roof.

Polly - Vote on the Motion that "Advisory/Advocate Board supports John Knight's Proposal shown on powerpoint" (Attachment A); Vote- Unanimous

Martin - a second potential for amending the motion, it appears there is additional funding for deferred maintenance; Expo is working with $45 million in improvements so another $2 was going to Expo but because P+R has no dedicated funding source, I would appreciate it if this board goes on record that our preference would be that the full $6 million goes to SCP+R in lieu of Expo getting any additional funding above $45 million already allocated. My motion is that this board go on record that if they do put out $6 million, it goes to P+R and nothing above the allocated funds go to the Expo. Second by Ledbetter.

Roberts - I was at the Expo Advisory board meeting. Lots of info about bonding and wondering and how that place can be energized. Where the additional $2 will go? Equestrian?

Martin- No, a chiller and other things were identified to be done quickly once excess funds were made available. The Expo is already getting major money to improve the site. I am all in favor of the expo getting improved but to come up with immediate needs that have been known for some time is not right. This system serves the entire County. You can see clearly by this report that excess funds need to go to P+R. One commissioner is not in favor of it at all. A horse barn is a whole separate deal. It needs weighted as to what they need versus what they can do.

1

Attachment B

Ketterman - So, for what we are discussing here, we know that $2 will probably go up as well.

Martin - This board is not anti Expocenter but as a Board we should support a funding source.

Ledbetter - In 2015 I went to the county budget meeting after I walked through the Expo and I

specifically asked for a line item and the board gave a quarter of a million dollars for deferred

maintenance and it passed for '16, '17, and in '18 it wasn't as much but something like $100,000

for deferred maintenance, just at the Expo. So they should be able to squeeze a lot out of $45

million.

ADA is a Federal Law and the North request has been out there for years. This is a good list.

They could use revenue bonds if they needed additional funds that P+R doesn't have access to at

this time.

Roberts - the 1st menu item by the Expo of what to get done with the allocated $45 million was

the HV AC so it is already marked to be done! What is a good term as this is

borderline ... encroachment. My point is that P+R is entitled to the $6 million as this is a balanced

approach.

Polly- I am uncomfortable voting without some sense of verbiage.

Martin - read his drafted letter stating strong opposition to allocation of additional County funds

when P+R needs are so great and a dedicated funding mechanism is not available.

Polly- Voting on the 2nd motion of supporting this letter drafted by Martin; Unanimous

Roberts -Please inform the board as to when this will be presented at the commission meeting.

IV.b New Business- Board Diversity

Discussion

Ledbetter - Just a question, how do we tell people who to appoint? Include education and

background in order to be diverse. You need to include everything.

Ketterman - Talk to friends, neighbors those around us and get more diversity on this board by

giving them names. Just show an interest without being college graduates and help the County.

Roberts- Not just color ofyour skin but socioeconomic status should play a role in recruitment.

Miller- I use this as an example, met with John, Cook, and these ladies built this park as they

were promised that someone would get back with those present before the restroom was removed without notice. Wants to serve as an example because they were not listening to us. Don't want it

to happen again.

2

Attachment B

Black - Thank you, I support you. Diversity is smart to think about what do we need. Not just

skill set but criteria to identify what we need more of on this Board.

Pellegrino - I support it but want to make sure we don't get too specific, keep it broad.

Black- Do we have Shawnee County demographics? For our districts we serve? We definitely

don't want to get into specifics but reflect our const~tuents that we represent.

Ketterman - Can the centers or P+R staff help us out?

Knight - Inside the Master Plan, there was a lot of demographic research separated by quadrants

that you may use.

Polly- I was looking for more of a conceptual ok to move forward with it.

Pellegrino - Motion to move forward with idea of promoting diversity on the Advisory/ Advocate

Board. Second - Martin

Ledbetter- I would like to define the terms exactly what you want for diversity. And then bring

it back to this body for approval.

Polly- That is the nature of the project. Voting on the motion as noted by Pellegrino; 13 for, 1

abstained (Ledbetter).

Polly- that would be the nature of the project.

V.b Lane Garden Report (Attachment C)

Black - Is Karen's piece included? I represent this area so just wanted to clarify her vision.

Looking for a win/win.

Pelligrino -Motion to extend 10 minutes; Ledbetter- Second; Unanimous

Black - The idea was about Marge Haney being personally involved in the area. Hopeful that

they could do an endowment and put an end to this.

Ketterman - Is it an active good NIA?

Polly- Relatively, described his opinion and the NIA efforts from an outside viewpoint.

Ledbetter- Why has no one approached the City of Topeka and asked them to deed it to the SCP+R?

Polly- It is not a park parcel.

Motion - I would like to approve this memo to go to Commissioner Cook - Roberts; Second -

Ledbetter

3

Attachment B

Polly - There is no process, no future as to how this is going to be maintained and add amenities that anyone can sustain. If that is the real issue, then a vote of "yes" is the same as saying I support this becoming a County park. If we want it to be a park then just say it should be a park

and avoid all this.

Ketterman- The land belongs to the City, it is a City problem.

Martin- I haven't read this document and I understand concerns and I would like to make a motion to defer it to the next meeting. Second - Pellegrino - Second; Unanimous

V.c Camp Daisy Hindman

Ledbetter - 1st impression tonight but more at the next meeting. Four persons when out and viewed the property - in very good shape, pristine natural area, costs are still being analyzed. Open to ideas but most of it is kept up nice.

Ketterman - Who is responsible for maintenance for it?

Ledbetter - Girl Scouts are in charge of it but no maintenance person or security was present.

Martin- When does the maintenance contract end?

Ledbetter - Good question, I did not see one. I will ask.

VII. Public Comment

Cortez - I believe public comment should not be considered an afterthought as it appears if people are going to be asked to attend these public meetings.

Motion to extend the meeting 5 minutes - Ledbetter; Second -Miller; Unanimous

Polly- Any comments from the public?

Miller- Eric has something to say.

Cortez - I feel we need to address the public comment portion of these meetings. Please place it on the next month's agenda to address time set aside for public comment.

Carol Marple - I found it very interesting that you get all the equipment in the sale price (girl scout property), not just land and buildings. And I agree with Jim, the excess County funds should not go to the Expocenter.

Miller- motion to adjourn; Ledbetter- Second; Unanimous;

TO: Shawnee County Commissioner Cook

FROM: Shawnee County Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee

DATE: February 27,2018

SUBJ: Land Garden Fact Finding Summary Report

Background Lane Gardens is located on the NE comer ofSW 12th Street and SW Lane Street in the Tennessee Town NIA. This parcel was not transferred to the Shawnee Country Parks and Recreation (SCRP) from the City of Topeka when consolidation occurred. The Tennessee Town NIA has over time, since 1980 provided upkeep, provided and maintained planters and benches through their NIA volunteers. On a previous occasion, they requested the Shawnee County Commission to accept the parcel of land into the SCPR system, and this failed. The Tennessee Town NIA on two previous occasions submitted SORT grant requests to fund the Lane Park upgrades, and these failed to be approved due to the maintenance responsibility issue.

Historically speaking, the Tennessee Town has a rich and vibrant history in our community. The earliest residents of Tennessee Town were newly freed slaves who migrated from the South to the West as part of the Exoduster Movement. Some of them, who left plantation life behind in Tennessee, arrived in Topeka in 1879 on what was then the western edge of the city, in an area known as King's Addition. After arriving in Topeka and establishing Tennessee Town, the settlers built homes, businesses, schools and churches, making Tennessee Town one of the centers ofTopeka's African-American community. The 1880 Topeka census identified 880 blacks in the city, comprising 31 percent of the city's population. Lacking financial and city support to aid their efforts to settle here, living conditions were less than those of the rest of the city. However, during the 1890's, Tennessee Town residents began to garden and trade produce for clothes and other necessities. Soon after, businesses, schools and churches began to dot the Tennessee Town landscape. Also during the 1890's, the first white man to show any real interest in Tennessee Town, Dr. Charles Sheldon, came into the settlement from his post as pastor of Central Congregational Church, which still stands at SW Huntoon and Buchanan Street. He spent three weeks in Tennessee Town surveying the people and conditions. He found that there were about 800 people who had migrated here directly after leaving behind plantation life in the South, 1 00 children between the ages of three and seven who might be considered kindergarten age, and four black churches. Sheldon thought that Jordan Hall would be a good place to start a kindergarten, and by the spring of 1893, the first black kindergarten west of the Mississippi River was opened. By the early 1900's, four churches had sank roots in Tennessee Town: Shiloh Baptist (still on the southwest comer of 12th and Buchanan Streets), Mt. Olive Episcopal (now Asbury-Mt. Olive United Methodist Church, on the northeast comer of 12th and Buchanan Streets), The Church of God (now Lane Chapel, at 12th and Lane Streets), and the Christian Church (now Dovetail, at 12th and Washburn Streets). The Colored Women's Club was also founded at about 8 that time. It occupied the house at 1149 SW Lincoln St. until a few years ago. The Topeka nonprofit Living the Dream, Inc.'s headquarters now occupy the clubhouse During the 1970s Tennessee Town experienced the first rumblings of a renaissance. The Community Development Block Grant Program, through the U.S. Department of Housing and

Urban Development, began in Topeka in 1974. CDBG funds began to come to Topeka as an entitlement to poor neighborhoods like Tennessee Town. In 1976, Tennessee Town became one of the first Neighborhood Improvement Associations in the city. A group of Kansas State University architecture students came into the neighborhood in the early 1980's to conduct a semester-long inventory of housing. The results of their work were impressiv~, including recommendations for in-fill housing that included actual prototypes. At about that same time the neighborhood began working with Topeka Metropolitan Planning on a comprehensive look at Tennessee Town, including housing, infrastructure and safety issues. A comprehensive manual was compiled, along with an executive summary.

Request Shawnee County Commissioner Cook requested that the SCPR Advisory Committee review the Land Garden issue. Terri Roberts, SCPR Advisory Committee Vice Chair was appointed Chair of the Lane Garden Task Force, with Shari Black, Mike Morris and LJ Polly also. Information was shared and collected electronically from the Tennessee Town NIA President, Mike Bell, SCPR, and Karen Hiller, Topeka City Council Member representing the area of the Lane Gardens. A face-to-face meeting was held December 7th with the Task Force members, and Mike Bell and Karen Hiller were present. Views and suggestions were exchanged and a final meeting was held to review this Fact Finding Summary Report.

Tennessee Town NIA Position The Aaron Douglas Art Park, which is a mural and is only used once a year for the Art Fair is considered a park worthy of attention while Lane Garden, in existence since the early 1980s and the neighborhood's only recognized green space for the vast majority of that time, is not. At one point, Lane Garden had a sign, benches, and planters, among other amenities. Time and the City's refusal to make improvements and the county's refusal to recognize its oversight during the department consolidation discussed above have not been kind to the park. The NIA is mindful of how quickly the county brought the Aaron Douglas Park under its umbrella while ignoring Lane Garden.

SW 12th and Lane Streets border both Lane Garden and the Aaron Douglas Art Park. The argument "there is no connectivity for this parcel as main ruteries pass on the south and west of the parcel" is not used against Art Park and this disparate treatment is of concem to the Tennessee NIA. Additionally, SW 12th and SW Huntoon Streets ru·e slated for improvements as a part of a recently passed half-cent sales tax. SW 12th Street connects to the previously cited "lineru· park" in Elmhw·st and SW Lane and Washbum Streets are arterials that lead to Washbum University, Central Park Community Center, Lowman Hill Elementary School, the Topeka and Shawnee County Public Library, Stormont-Vail HealthCare and St. Francis Hospital. The "demographic need" is contained within the Tennessee Town NIA, a low-to moderate-income neighborhood which has had Lane Garden as its only recognized greenspace for decades.

The Tennessee NIA has requested assistance in covering the parcel from a liability perspective, so that in 2018-2019, they can move forward with SORT grant monies and volunteers to provide Lane Garden with amenities that would significantly improve the parcel and contribute a well-manicured green space to their community.

Shawnee County Parks and Recreation Departments Position The Individual Management Plan Committee recommended recently (September,2017), to refuse Lane Garden parcel due to it not being in the best interest of the SCPR to accept the parcel. The

Justification included that the vision of the adopted Master Plan is to acquire parcels based on the strategies for land, and that this parcel of land falls outside the recognized criteria. Strategy: 1.10 Identify and acquire land to preserve and enhance access to natural resources, open spaces, and outdoor recreation. Tactic: Identify and aggressively pursue properties/parcels that are adjacent to major regional/community parks.

~ The parcel does not meet any of the criteria in 1.1 0, nor any of the criteria in the tactic. Nearby but not adjacent park properties include- specialty park (Aaron Douglas Art Park), Hnear park (Elmhurst Green), and Neighborhood/Community (Central Park). This parcel does not meet the criteria of 1.1 0, "Identify and acquire land to preserve and enhance access to natural resources, open spaces, and outdoor recreation."

• There is no connectivity for this parcel as main arteries pass on the south and west of the parcel. ·

• There is no demographic need to connect to this parcel.

• The department would need to spend significant funds initially to meet the approved maintenance standards and annually to maintain the park into the future.

• The parcel needs to have a genuine purpose and that purpose must create value and align with SCP+R goals and objectives. It may add beautification to the neighborhood, help solve an abandoned home issue but neither are primary functions for Parks + Recreation.

• This parcel has been offered to the department before and has been rejected.

• There are numerous public and private lands within a half mile radius (national standard) that have amenities of which duplication would occur such as greenspace, landscaped areas, play structures for youth, sitting areas for adults and other specialty purposes.

• Based on park classifications throughout the system, acquisition would increase the imbalance in existing Shawnee County quadrants (MacVicar and SW 21st Streets as dividers)as detailed below:

Mini-Parks 12 Quadrant 1-NW Quadrant 17 2-NE Quadrant 5 3-SW Quadrant 11 4-SE

Karen Hiller, Topeka City Council Member Recommendations

Preserve the greenspace of Lane Garden, utilizing it as a garden, perhaps with recognition for a past City contributor Marge Henney & Keep America Beautiful through educational and peaceful destination or stopover contributions for naming rights. The targeted audience would be the passerby's residents within the neighborhood of all ages and abilities. With an endowment created, this could support underwriting for maintenance, and trash pick-up and the minimal mowing. From the educational perspective the Lane Garden could be nature focused with Kansas flora and fauna, to support butterfly flyways, plant/insect and bird relationships. Support the NIA in obtaining the connecting property to the north east, to expand it slightly.

Land Gardens Task Force Assessment

Neither the City of Topeka or Shawnee County are receptive to making Lane Garden a "park" at this time. However, we do after a discussion about reducing blight, improving green space and visual appearances within the City neighborhoods, want to recommend that the Tennessee Town NIA be supported in their attempt to use SORT grant money to provide amenities for this parcel to enhance the green space in their community.

SORT Grant New amenities proposed for Lane Garden: • 1 stone sign • 1 solar-powered light for illumination • 2 stone trash receptacles • 2 stone benches • 2 stone picnic tables • 1 barbecue grill

The Shawnee County Weed Department is also indirectly responsible for the control of noxious weed infestations on all county owned property and right-of-way and contracts with local governmental entities to fulfill their responsibility in complying with the· Kansas Noxious Weed Law.

NOTE: In this document "Shawnee County" means all of Shawnee County whether in the City limits of Topeka, any of its' other municipalities, or in the rural county townships.


SERVICES I DAY TO DAY FUNCTIONS

The Shawnee County Weed Department is directly or indirectly responsible for the control of noxious weeds in Shawnee County. The Kansas Noxious Weed Law K.S.A. 2-1314 et seq. requires all persons who own, or supervise land in Kansas to control and eradicate all weeds declared noxious by legislative action. The department's primary role is to enforce the Kansas Noxious Weed Law and the Nuisance Weed & Rank Grass Resolution H.R. 2005-3 for Shawnee County. The department acts as a liaison between landowners to control these spreading noxious and nuisance weed infestations. As a regulatory agency, the Shawnee County Weed Department enforces weed control on private property, and provides noxious weed control for most public properties in Shawnee County. Shawnee County uses a three-prong approach to encourage landowners to comply with the noxious weed statute and the county resolution. Those prongs are Education, Enforcement, and Control.

Education: The Shawnee County Weed Department strives to educate and provide information to landowners on the regulations and the benefits of weed control and property management in a professional and courteous manner.

The Weed Department maintains a website with program descriptions, control options and contact information.

Educational brochures and training materials for noxious weed control and pesticide use are available and on display at the warehouse and office.

The Shawnee County Weed Department sponsored an educational display booth at the Kansas Lawn & Garden Show, the Topeka Farm Show, each held at the Expocenter annually, an educational presentation and appreciation breakfast for all state & county officials, county department and township officials and at the Gage Zoological Park on Earth Awareness Day.

The department offers plant identification and control recommendations for non-noxious weeds (i.e., poison ivy, brush, lawn weeds). This service is utilized by many of our Shawnee County residents.

In conjunction with the KSU Extension Service, the Weed Department publishes monthly inserts in their newsletter.

The Shawnee County Weed Department has an excellent working relationship with other governmental educational agencies such as the KSU Ag Extension Service and the Natural Resource Conservation Service.

The Shawnee County Weed Department conducts pesticide training seminars and other educational field days. The department conducted 1 area wide plant identification seminar and spoke to 9 additional clubs & organization groups in 2017.

The department communicates the value of noxious weed control and weed management at garden clubs, extension programs, and to FFA and 4-H youth at the Shawnee County Fair.

Enforcement: The Shawnee County Weed Department encourages compliance with the law by offering incentives for proper weed management. As required by the Kansas Noxious Weed Law, the Shawnee County Weed Department provides cost-share chemical control to landowners. Landowners receive the controls at approximately 75% of the departmental cost.

The Shawnee County Weed Department maintains a warehouse and sales counter to provide cost-shared herbicide controls and rental equipment to landowners. The rental sprayer program is a very popular service for property owners that do not have their own spraying equipment.

Our department strives to take a proactive and deterrent role in performing our regulatory duties and therefore, out of literally hundreds of noxious & nuisance weed investigations, the county weed department only forced action on fewer than 50 landowners.

The Shawnee County Weed Department is responsible for enforcing noxious weed control on private and public property in all areas of Shawnee County, and acts as a liaison between neighbors with invasive noxious, or nuisance weeds near property boundaries.

Landowners failing to control the noxious, or nuisance weeds within the time period allowed may result in the county treating the weeds at the landowners expense and placing a lien on the property if the bill is not paid within 30 days, or filing criminal charges for non-compliance.

'The Shawnee County Weed Department routinely contacts salvage yards, businesses, storage fadlities, and construction equipment lot owners to utilize the cost-shared herbicide program to rid their properties of noxious and other nuisance weeds.

The Shawnee County Weed Department routinely contacts cemeteries, golf courses, and caretakers of large manicured grass areas to utilize the costshared herbicide program to rid their properties of noxious and other nuisance weeds.

Control: Government must be a good steward of land, and just like private property owners, is required to comply with the weed control laws. The Shawnee County Weed Department works diligently to keep the property and rights-of-way of the public, in compliance with the Kansas Noxious Weed Law.

The Shawnee County Weed Department controls invasive and noxious weeds on county property and R-0-W; all state highway R-0-W in Shawnee County; City of Topeka Parks; R-0-W in Auburn, Dover, Grove, Menoken, Mission, Monmouth, Rossville, Silver Lake, Tecumseh, Topeka, and Williamsport Townships; Tri-County, Kaw River, North Topeka, and City of Topeka Drainage Districts, and Wakarusa River watershed lakes in Shawnee, Osage, and Douglas Counties.

Every city street and right-of-way in Shawnee County, including the City of Topeka, is inspected for noxious weeds at least once and typically three times, during the summer growing season.

Our weed control crews are working diligently to control and curtail weed infestations any day wind speeds allow, the ground is not frozen, and/or the air temperature is above 30 degrees. Normally, these conditions occur between March 1st and December 1st.

The Shawnee County Weed Department inspects real and personal property, feed and forage crops, and topsoil extraction sites in Shawnee County for noxious and nuisance weeds.

The Shawnee County Weed Department encourages the use of bio-control agents and holistic weed control practices. Bio-control agents to control Musk Thistle and Field Bindweed have been released within Shawnee County.

Has the vendor ever been an employee of the Shawnee County? Yes No __ x ___ If yes, please explain the nature of the employment and period of serv~

1. Description of Material or Service: Fiberglas slide manufacture that will customize the slide to your preference. They will customize cuts to for a perfect fit.

2. Explain why the recommended vendor is the only one qualified to provide the requested services at the exclusion of all others, i.e., what makes this vendor uniquely qualified? This slide vendor will cut the slide to meet the slope of the pool or cut the slide to conform to a guttering system on a deck mount system

3. Describe the research that has been completed to insure that no other competition exists {nature of work to be completed, names of vendors contacted who are unable to perform service, etc.): I have talked to other vendors, Rain Drop and Water Odyssey and they did not know of anyone that did custom fitting, only custom paint. I did contact FastKorp and they stated they are the only one that will cut the slide to fit the zero depth or the guttering system for a deck mount. Rain Drop said they would sell an extension to the slide. This makes it look cheap. I also did a general search on the computer.

4. Have you requested an agency contract with the vendor at any time during the past twelve months? Yes X No If yes, please explain the nature of the service and the amount agreed to be paid.

Not a contract but work has been done in the past 12 months with FastKorp. This company designed and customized the kid slide for Blaisdell Pool.

RE: Memorandum of Understanding- Easterseals Capper Foundation Recreation - Afterschool/Camps

Purpose: Board of Commissioners authorization and execution on the attached Memorandum of Understanding between Shawnee County Parks + Recreation (SCP+R) and the Easterseals Capper Foundation (ECF) pertaining to a trade out of services and facilities is requested. The programs benefit both parties equally but more importantly participants. There is no exchange of funding.

Justification: SCP+R develop agreements with efficiencies in mind. Serving as the host site for the iCan Bike program in exchange for staff training and volunteer time, created a shared level of equity that meets the service provider partnership criteria. ECF is a nonprofit that is able to offer this camp to specific clientele in collaboration with SCP+R. And as noted in the Master Plan Program Portfolio (4.8) it is suggested to continue offering programs for persons with disabilities as requested by the public.

The program is unique in that it helps individuals with disabilities gain the self-confidence to ride a two-wheel bicycle within a week. Using specialized equipment, coaching and encouragement, participants "lose the training wheels!" ECF has the expertise and resources to help individuals with disabilities in such endeavor. They provide participants the environment needed to improve self-esteem, encourage inclusion, and most importantly an increased quality of life through a recreational experience.

The MOU creates a partnership that has ECF offering SCP+R staff specialized training (Ability Awareness, Behavior Analysis, Mandt) and providing volunteer assistance at our Civitan Summer Camp well worth the exchange for site use. Training helps summer camp staff with being prepared to handle specific or unique situations at camp. EFC volunteer hours are crucial to assisting SCP+R with offering a quality camp experience.

RE: Stacking Chairs- Garfield and Shawnee North Community Centers Recreation Division - Centers

Purpose: Board of Commissioners approval is requested on the attached invoices from Modern Business Interiors, for the purchase of replacement stacking chairs at Garfield and Shawnee North Community Centers in the amount of $14,032.18. Modern Business Interiors is a State Contract provider which the department utilizes to purchase this style of chair. Funds are available from the Parks + Recreation Capital Maintenance (3R) Fund.

Justification: On March 2, 2018, a project budget for chairs was approved to replace the chairs at Garfield and Shawnee North Community Centers with this type of stacking chair available from the vendor. Past history includes replacement of chairs at Central Park (20 16) and Oakland and Crestview (2017) Community Centers.

The upgrades have been needed for several years due to safety concerns and it was not feasible to repair chairs. Parks + Recreation is now putting community center amenities and equipment on schedules based on useful life. This involves working to provide the public a safe and comfortable environment. The chair style was selected as the department's design standard for these chairs as they are utilized daily by the public or staff.

Board of Shawnee County Commissioners

James M. Crowl, Shawnee County Counselor

Aprilll, 2018

Request to negotiate with Terracon Consultants, Inc. for Geotechnical Consulting and Testing Services for Kansas Expocentre Renovation Project

Please place this item on the Monday, April16, 2018 Commission Agenda for consideration.

On March 26, 2018 the Board of County Commissioners authorized the issuance of a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for geotechnical firms to provide consulting and testing services for the Kansas Expocentre Renovation Project. The proposal submission deadline was April 9, 2018. We received five responses from the following entities:

1. Terracon Consultants, Inc. 2. Alpha-Omega Geotech, Inc. 3. Cook, Flatt & Strobel Engineers, PA 4. Intertek-PSI 5. Kansas City Testing & Engineering, LLC

The Professional Services Selection Committee, consisting of myself, Pat Oblander, Bill Kroll, Tom Flanagan and Chuck Smith with HTK Architects, has reviewed and discussed the proposals submitted.

After thorough evaluation and discussion the Committee is recommending that the Commission award the final bid to Terracon Consultants, Inc. and authorize the County Counselor's office to negotiate a contract with the vendor which will be brought back before the Commission for final approval.

I thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any additional questions or concerns please feel free to contact me.
