The Norman Board of Park Commissioners met on September 4, 2025, to approve routine items, receive annual reports, consider land dedication options for two developments, adopt the Urban Forest Master Plan, and adjust operating hours for parks and the Young Family Athletics Center.
Good evening and welcome to the City and Norman Board of Park Commissioners meeting for Thursday, September 4th, 2025. First thing we'll do is roll call and Billy Davidson. Todd Fagan. Christy Isaacson here. Martin Nanny. Here. Tori Ted Orlaffin. Here. Ellen Ustri. Christy Wright. Christina Whitecoff. Okay. First item consideration of approval acceptance rejection amendment and postponement of the minutes as follows. The Board of Park Commissioners regular meeting minutes of June 5th, 2025, and the Board of Park Commissioner meeting special meeting minutes of July 3rd, 2025. Do I have a motion to approve those? All motion to approve. Second. Second. Thank you, Mark. All in favor? Any opposed? Passes. Okay. Consideration of approval acceptance rejection amendment and or postponement of previously approved city council items. I'll hit these up real quick, knock them out. The uh first one we had on August 12th was uh uh cleaning contract with uh clean freaks for uh the amount of 22,182 a month. Uh just remind everybody we do all the building maintenance for all facilities across the city. So this is one large contract, I think covering about 13 facilities, including City Hall. Uh so this is uh discovering that, so it looks bit like a big number. It is a big number, but it's a lot of square footage that's getting covered. Uh we did have final payment for our contractor with a professional community wildlife protection plan of about four thousand dollars. We did have a contract with Muscle Sports Lighting to add lighting out at the Westwood tennis courts. Well, this is replacing a bunch of uh uh lighting at our older courts right there on the northwest side of uh the Westwood tennis complex, and then on August 26th, we did have a contract uh transfer from a healthy living center Norman LLC. From uh basically the gist of that would be uh went from a healthy living Oklahoma City to a separate different contractor, um, but still the same same staff of Healthy Living Um Norman, which is a board that is set up uh with Norman residents. So uh same same people uh working it, just different boards, and this board's based in Norman instead of Oklahoma City. So it was good news for us. I'll have to take any questions about this. Why does the YFAC not have charges for the sound? This one's not included in that one. The uh originally we did have Clean Freaks that was gonna do that, uh, but we uh took them off because they it was too much for this is a newer company in the Oakland City area. Uh they uh did it for a few weeks and then decided they didn't want to do it anymore. It was too much for them with everything else, so that's one of the ones they dropped, and we went back to our uh former contractor that was doing that, and you'll probably see that bring come back up in September. It's taking us a while to get the contract. Okay, I'm just curious as to why we have a zero zilla. Thank you. Any other questions for Jason on any of those things? I didn't hear that from turns off. This is our last time next item consideration, approval, acceptance, rejection, amendment, and or postponement of the annual report from Sooner Theater. I'm here for you. Hi, thank y'all for letting us go first today.
