Appointment to River Activities Committee

DISCUSSION:
Recommendation
The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board appoints one member to the River Advisory Committee.
Rivers and Parks are very intertwined, so the PARB representative will be on RAC to serve as a stakeholder to represent Park interests.
The other members of RAC are three tourism professionals, one resident living on the Comal River, and two residents of New Braunfels that do not live on the Comal. This helps to give the City a group of river stakeholders to represent all different interests surrounding river management.
RAC meets every other month on the 3rd Thursday of the month at 4:00 pm. Typically the committee has a break from November-March.
RAC will make recommendations to City Council on river revenue opportunities and river rule/ordinance changes. RAC receives updates on river revenue, Police activity, Ranger and Lifeguard activity, and trash and litter clean up.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the appointment of a Board member to represent Park interests on the River Activities Committee. Recommendation
