McGinnis, Nanager Cabarrus County P. O. Box 707 Concord, N.C. 28025 Dear Mr. McGinnis: · Attached you will find a resolution authorizing development at Frank Liske Park for 1983-84 F~scal Year. Approval of this resolution by the Cabarrus Board of Commissioners will allow our Department to apply for $50,000~00 of Federal Funds, which will require a $50,000.00 appropriation of Local Funds, for a $100,000.00 development program at Frank Liske Park. Also attached you will find a copy of the Proposed Development Budget for Fiscal Year 1983-84 for Frank Liske Park. This Budget reflects your recommended appropriation in the Revenue Sharing Fund, totaling $138,000,00. The items that are marked with an asterisk are the facilities that will be funded by the Land and Water Conservation Fund Grant. As you may know, the majority of these items are outdoor recreation facilities. The Land and Water Conservation Fund Grant stipulates that all development with these Federal Funds must occur on outdoor recreation facilities. Many of the other items requested in the Budget are indoor facilities or support facilities for construction that has already occured. A pre-applicatio~ for Land and Water Conservation Funds was filed with the North Carolina Department of Natural Resources and Community Development on May 16, 1983. With endorsement of the attached resolution, ! will be able to process the application, and if approved, construction could begin as early as October 1, 1983. The Cabarrus County Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission approved the attached Budget meeting in regular session on March 31, 1983. The request represents a 44% decrease in requested appropriation over the past Fiscal Year. Moreover, the proposed development will require no increase in the cost of General Fund appropriations for the purposes of operations. Revenue collected from fees and charges will more than cover the cost of operations during the 1983-8~ Fiscal Year and should yield a $5,000.00 surplus during the 198~-85 Fiscal Year.
