AGENDA REPORT
TO: The Honorable City Council C
FROM: Christine Adams, Director of Community Service
DATE: January 6, 1995 (Meeting of January 18, 1995)
SUBJECT: Consider Staff Attendance at California Parks and
Recreation Conference, March 2 - 5. 1995.
BACKGROUND
The annual California and Pacific Southwest Recreation and
Park Conference will be held this year in San Jose from March
2 - 5 . This annual conference is the one main opportunity
for parks and recreation professionals to attend a variety of
educational sessions, attend the largest exhibit/trade show
for parks and recreation practitioners in the country, and
gain valuable information through professional networking.
Over 2000 members from California, Arizona, Nevada, and
Hawaii attend this conference each year.
In the budget detail approved by the City Council for 1994-
95, the Recreation Division budget calls for two department
staff to attend this year ' s conference . In reviewing the
topics of the various education sessions, staff feels that
there would be value in sending three staff members (the
director and the two recreation supervisors ) . There are
quite a few educational sessions at the annual CPRS
conference in San Jose that are related to teen program and
at risk youth issues, which would be of interest to the
Recreation Supervisor who has been assigned to develop the
City' s teen and at risk programs . There are also several
sessions dealing with marketing, classes, and special events
which would be of value to the City ' s other Recreation
Supervisor, who is responsible for those program areas in the
department .
The budget allows for a total of $1, 500 for two individuals
to attend. Staff is not requesting any more funding for this
conference, but is requesting that the City Council revise
the budget detail for this line item and approve the
attendance of three staff members .
Staff members have inquired into ways to save costs, such as
driving the city pool car to San Jose, and rooming with
attendees from other cities . These measures will keep the
costs down and will allow for all three staff members to
attend for the same amount of funding.
