Sorry for the delayed response. We have one of our larger events this week and not in the office. The repair was completed by PARD Operations team and not Golf. We will make sure they receive the reimbursement once received. 


Please know this repair came as a result of patrons request due to numerous washouts on the trail. They contacted my office and I routed this to trail team. The golf course, or Golf Division does not have trail maintenance equipment, or staff to complete
these repairs. Upon trail inspection, the Operations Manager Lead indicated repairs needed to be made as soon as possible. 

I would recommend a regular inspection of the trail if a Contractor might be utilized moving forward and I can get you the contacts of our PARD Operations group for input as well.

Hi Carolyn, et. al, 

I'm happy to discuss any of what Ladye Anne mentioned in person or over the phone, but wanted to send you some information now so that you had it for your records. I've attached the resolution signed by ENA and HNA in 2007 when the funds were established.

In the future, you can submit invoices to us through our
online check request form
, being careful to select the correct Concordia account for funds to be disbursed from. We typically process checks on Wednesday of each week. 

I've additionally attached our policies document for sponsored fund accounts. Not all of the items are applicable to these particular accounts because of the unique nature of your accounts here - for instance, no one in actively soliciting funds for these
accounts, and we do not assess fees on them as we do with typical sponsored fund accounts. With that said, I think the information on check requests and several other items may be helpful. 

Best,
John

Hello Carolyn,

It's wonderful to hear from you. Hope you and the folks at HNA are all enjoying your summer thus far.

Thanks for sending this over - we can get this paid right away. Thanks to Kevin and the team for their work.

We would love the opportunity to chat with you about accessing your funds for future work at Hancock. As a 501c3 that works to support the city and increase their resources, our organization does not generally pay the city directly for work. We prefer
instead to hire contractors, which helps us to increase the bandwidth of the city staff. 

I'd like to introduce John Rooney, who coordinates our Sponsored Fund Accounts. He can walk you through our policies and our procedures on how to access your funds, submit invoices for payment, etc. We will also review the Hancock/Concordia Resolution
with you to make sure we're in accordance. Since it's been over 10 years, I'm sure everyone could use a refresher! 

Thanks Carolyn! Glad to see work progressing and happy to answer any questions you may have.

Best,
Ladye Anne

Reminder: Parks and Recreation Board Meeting Tuesday, August 27th at 6 PM

The Parks and Recreation Board will hold a meeting this evening, Tuesday, August 27th at 6 PM in the Boards and Commissions Room of City Hall. Here is the agenda. The first item on the non-consent portion of the agenda is a presentation by Jim D. Huddleston proposing the redevelopment of Hancock Golf Course. The board asked PARD staff to put the item on this month's agenda to ensure that the proposal is discussed in a public forum and so that the board can take an official position on the matter. Please attend to register your opposition to Mr. Huddleston's proposal. You can also write the Parks and Recreation Board members to provide input.

Proposal to Redevelop Hancock Golf Course

Dear neighbors,

A proposal is being put before PARD and has been sent to Council to redevelop and sell off the Hancock Golf Course. This is particularly disturbing given the high level of community engagement by residents of Hancock and the neighborhoods of Eastwoods, Cherrywood, NUNA, and Hyde Park with PARD over the Hancock Golf Course just over a year ago in which there was solidarity in preserving and enhancing the golf course with subsequent investments made. It is also disturbing that the short-term cashing out of community park lands is spoken of in this proposal as showing "visionary leadership." Please see the attached documents, which George will kindly post to the HNA site.

Jim D. Huddleston with Crawford, Huddleston & Co. will be presenting his proposal to the Parks and Recreation Board this coming Tuesday, August 27th. The meeting will be at 6 p.m. in the Boards and Commission Room at City Hall. Please come and show your support of the Hancock Golf Course and help send the message that neighborhoods do not want their community park lands up for sale.

The HNA Parks and Green Spaces Committee is preparing a statement based on the input and outcomes of the past community engagement session to make at the Parks Board meeting. The committee will follow this with a draft resolution to be sent to Council which will be presented at the September 18th HNA meeting for approval.

Hope to see you on Tuesday.

Carolyn

HNA President
