3 issues in parks rec with high priority
Long-term park improvement priorities
Staff will explain how park maintenance is funded and how the city decides which park improvements come first. If you've wondered why your neighborhood park's repairs take a back seat to others, this discussion covers it.
Children's library expansion and $120,000 Friends donation
The children's area expansion is moving forward — construction is at insulation, drywall and roofing stages, and the Friends of the Library are donating $120,000. But there's a catch: the construction contract needs an amendment increasing the cost by about $800,000 plus 15% contingency, going to City Council.
Equestrian Park deterioration and phase one maintenance
The aging equestrian center needs $500K-$750K in immediate repairs just to stop deteriorating. Council agreed to fund the basics and plans an ad hoc committee to figure out its long-term use — possibly with a partner operator.
