member Folley seconded the motion. Motion passed unanimously.
3. Discuss and provide direction concerning the current operations of the dog park
related to possible registration system.
Director Adam Adams gave the board an opportunity to discuss options regarding
resident v. non-resident registration. Current issues: dog fights and physical encounters
between owners. Kelly Akin, Trophy Club Animal Control Officer, gave her thoughts:
imposing fees is acceptable (significantly higher for non-residents), more issues with
non-residents than residents (bite reports, etc.), parvo concerns. Rabies is the only
vaccination required by the State of Texas; however, municipalities can require other
vaccines. Enforcement is self -policing by park users, or law enforcement is called for
issues that arise. The idea of a gate with a "coded" lock system, or a key tag was
suggested as a possibility. A simple system of "annual colored tags" was also a
suggestion.
4. Staff/Board update on the following items; discussion of same.
a. Park Services competitive bid
CFAB has the most current draft and has formed a sub -committee to review it.
After CFAB approves it, it will be sent to council, then it will be posted for bids for
30 — 45 days.
b. Trophy Club Park
Council has redirected CFAB to revisit TCP`s financial outlook.
Board member Murray inquired about a drone policy; Director Adams will look
into it. Design work for entrance near Skyline will, hopefully, be put in the budget
this coming year.
c. Future Class and Program brochure
2015 brochure is in -progress and should be mailed to residents in March.
January 27 Council agenda
Royal Troon and how to remedy the issues on the table will be on this agenda.
Also, the community garden is listed on the agenda for January 27.
d. Water restrictions effect on Park operations
