Box 707 <br />Concord, NC 28026-0707 <br /> <br />Subject: Baker's Creek Park Agreement <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Clifton: <br /> <br /> I have attached for the review and consideration by the Cabarrus County Board of Commissioners, a <br />proposed agreement between Caharms County, Rowan County and the City of Kaunapolis relating to Baker's Creek <br />Park. This agreement was reviewed and approved by the Rowan County Board of Commissions on July 20, 1998. <br /> <br /> This agreement incorporates the terms and conditions for transferring ownership and management of <br />Baker's Creek Park from the counties to the City of Kannapolis. Section 2 C and Section 4 have been revised as per <br />your letter dated July 14, 1998. Also Section 6 was amended to include specific reference to the federal and state <br />grant project numbers associated with this park. Exlfibit A is stilt in the process of being completed with the <br />assistance of Steve Little of your staff. Although not stated in the agreement the City intends to extend an <br />employment offer to the existing park employees. <br /> <br /> Kannapolis City Officials are excited about file opportunity to take a more active role in providing park and <br />recreational services to our citizens. The willingness of the Board of Commissioners to convey title to Baker's <br />Creek Park to the City of Kannapolis is greatly appreciated. A recent attendance survey validated what we all know, <br />which is Baker's Creek is a very popular recreational destination for the public. <br /> <br /> On behalf of the City of Kannapolis, I want to express our sincere gratitude for all that has been done by <br />Cabarms County over the years developing tiffs great park. We also appreciate the Board's willingness to make a <br />financial contribution of $48,850.00 to the park during fiscal year 1998-99 and for lesser amounts for the following <br />two years. <br /> <br /> We hope that this agreement will be acceptable to file Board. Unfortunately, the City Council has a <br />meeting on August 17, which will be at the same time as your board meeting. Please let me know if arrangements <br />need to be made to have city representation at your meeting. <br /> <br />...~.~eetfully, <br /> <br /> David A.
