Erick updated the group on meetings that are happening with RIM related to construction timelines and phases. East parking lot expansion will be first in order to provide additional parking before we lose spaces on the West side once the sports complex build out begins. During Fun Fest the Community Center will have drawings and renderings out on display, the City Council booth will have the same. Ted asked about the city hiring a communications person, city staff will pass his thoughts on to others along with Val Holthus. Staff will be working over the next few months with our current users to update them on the challenges that will come over the next year as construction overlaps with the current operation. Plan for Expanded Facility Utilization ACC staff along with members of the Advisory Commission will look to get in front of both our current and potential uses and talk about availability, rates, and needs. Most of these users have been part of the expansion discussions for a few years but now that things are moving forward, we can move from "what if' to planning and scheduling the new spaces. Frank Kellogg and Ted Butler indicated their willingness to attend local groups board meeting to update them on the expansion. Staff will work on a flyer to promote the new spaces. AHYHA Update Tony P provided a brief update. Things are quite as the transition from last season and begin planning for the 2019-20 season.
