Comments from school officials and citizens in each area of the County regarding recreation needs and potential use of each campus for community recreation. These comments came through public meetings held at each school by Parks and Recreation Commission members and staff, as well as informed conversations throughout the County. Review and comments by administrators and principals. Schematic drawings (maSter site plans) to reflect potential school/park development at each site. Woolpert Consultants completed these professional drawings. Estimates of probable construction costs for each school/park site. Woolpert Consultants also completed these cost estimates. On February 21, 1994 the Cabarrus County Board of Commissioners approved a resolution supporting the School/Park Concept for Cabarms County Schools. The attached report includes the following for each school/park site: inventory and evaluation of site, community/school comments/input of preferred recreation facilities, and Master Planning Site Drawings. Good communication and joint planning of facilities are the key elements in successful school/park sites. In the planning of new school/park facilities, the school principal, school maintenance/builder director, Cabarrus County Manager, Cabal'ms County Area Manager, Parks/Recreation Director and community leaders will be involved. The proposed master site drawings are only potential recreation facilities at each school site. We are aware that future school buildings or claSsrooms would change these proposed master site plans. These master site plans are preliminary plans to help provide a vision to the community, PTO's, booster clubs, schools, and recreation associations of the potential leisure opportunities at each school/park site. The second item requested on the agenda is the proposed memorandum of agreement for providing coordinated school/park facility planning. This agreement satisfies recommendation of this approved Cabarrus County School/Park Concept Resolution. Input and recommendations were also secured from the Cabarrus County/Kannapolis City Boards of Education Superintendents, Cabarrus County Manager and the Cabarrus County Parks and Recreation Commission. Thank you for your consideration concerning these proposals.
