  • Recreation CONNECTION
    Recreation CONNECTION WINTER/SPRING 2020 REGISTRATION BEGINS JANUARY 8, 9:30am SEE REGISTRATION INFO 95 TABLE OF CONTENTS 4 WINTER/SPRING 2020 Dear Island Residents, This past summer, the Park District conducted a public survey, hosted an online forum and held public meetings to solicit feedback about the Park District’s programs, services, and parklands. The information received from the public has been instrumental in the 2020 update of the Park District’s Comprehensive Plan. We would like to thank everyone who participated in the survey, online forum and the public meetings. After listening and reviewing feedback, it is clear that the Park District continues to be highly valued by this community. As the Park District began planning this fall for our 2020 budget, we faced several challenges. These include the WA State Initiative 1433 which increases the state’s minimum wage to $13.50 in 2020 and $15.00 in 2021. With these sizable labor increases pending, the Park District hired a consultant to review our pay scales and update the Park District’s job descriptions. The consultant’s review concluded that the minimum wage increases creates some compaction of the Park District’s salary scales, with the part-time pay scales increasing faster than some of the mid-level jobs in the agency. The consultant corrected the mid-level salary scale compaction and provided a plan to adjust the pay scales over the next two years. This will ensure that we meet the state’s new minimum wage increases while adjusting. This past November the Park District’s Board of Commissioners accepted the consultant’s recommendation and approved the 2020 budget.

    Recreation CONNECTION WINTER/SPRING 2016 SAKAI PLANNING SESSIONS 3 REGISTRATION BEGINS JANUARY 6, 10:00am SEE REGISTRATION INFO 71 TABLE OF CONTENTS 4 DECEMBER 2015 Dear Bainbridge Island Residents, The Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park & Recreation District is ex- cited to begin its 51st year of service with a meeting for planning the Sakai property. Bainbridge Island residents approved the purchase of the Sakai property through an election in February of 2015, securing 23 acres of parkland in the heart of Winslow. The Park District Board of Commissioners is now seeking your input in planning the parkland and invites you to attend a meeting on January 23, 2016 from 10:00am- 3:00pm at the Bainbridge Island High School commons. This will be a one-day event with a unique format that will allow community mem- bers to shape the future of this parkland. This is an important meeting so remind your friends, tell your family and bring your neighbors. These are just a few items of interest I would like to share with you: • We join with neighborhood supporters in celebrating efforts that completed development of the playground at Schel Chelb Park. This park is located at Point White Drive across from the beach a short walk west of the theater and market located along Lynwood Center Road. Developed park elements include a ship, mound slide, seating, a timber play structure and stump hop. Park themes provide for safe play and invoke imaginative exploration.
