FROM: Mayor Richard C. Irvin
DATE: February 2, 2024
SUBJECT:
A resolution appointing Alderman Ron Woerman and Alderman Brandon Tolliver to the Aquatics Administrative Board.
BACKGROUND:
The Fox Valley Park District and the City of Aurora established a five-member volunteer board to oversee the Aquatic Centers (Phillips Park Aquatic Center and Splash County Aquatic Center) in Aurora. The original agreement was established in 1989, amended in 1991 and restated in 2009.
DISCUSSION:
The five-member board is comprised of two representatives appointed by the Fox Valley Park District, two members appointed by the Aurora City Council, with the fifth "rotating Board member" appointed on an annual basis by either the city or the park district. The agreement stipulates the Park District has the majority of the board in even years, and the City has the majority in odd years. This being an even year, two appointees are being nominated to represent the City.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the appointments of Alderman Ron Woerman and Alderman Brandon Tolliver to the Aquatics Administrative Board.
