Goals 3 and 4 relate to the development of long-term objectives for the Commission. This is an ideal time for this discussion, as one of the Commission's first recommendations to Council next year will be the updated work plan goals. The purpose of this memo is to prompt the Commission to discuss its work plan goals, with a particular focus on Goals 3 and 4. Goal 3: Development of Long -Term Goals Goal 4: Development of a Unique Work Plan Goal for FY26 F 7 L I000, City of Kenai MEMORANDUM K E N 4 210 Fidalgo Ave, Kenai, AK 99611-7794 1907.283.75351 www.kenai.city TO: Parks and Recreation Commission THROUGH: Terry Eubank, City Manager FROM: Tyler Best, Parks and Recreation Director DATE: November 25th 2025 SUBJECT: Workplan 2025 Review —Parks and Recreation Commission On June 18th, 2025, the City Council approved all four Parks and Recreation Work Plan goals for the 2025 calendar year. The purpose of this memo is to review each goal, summarize accomplishments, and identify what remains outstanding. Below is a short summary from the Parks Director. At the next meeting, the Commission will vote on whether to recommend this report to Council. Goal 1: Tour Parks & Trails Twice Annually — Partially Achieved On June 5th, the Commission toured the Kenai Recreation Center and the Multi -Purpose Facility. While only one tour occurred, selecting specific locations proved helpful and may serve as a useful approach for administration when organizing future tours. Goal 2: Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) Work Session Annually — Partially Achieved In the spring, the Commission held a work session to review the CIP and subsequently voted to approve it for Council consideration. This goal can be fully achieved next year if maintained as an annual objective. The primary challenge this year was that the plan was not finalized until summer; the Commission prefers to review the CIP in the spring, prior to scheduling tours or related discussions. Goal 3: Development of Long -Term Goals — Achieved At the December regular meeting, the next long-term goal was added as a discussion item for Commission review. Goal 4: Development of a Unique Work Plan Goal for FY26 — Unknown Achieving this goal depends on the outcome of the current meeting and on whether a new FY26 work plan goal is established.
