3 issues in parks rec with high priority
Shandin Hills Golf Course management and audit
A Phase I review found untraceable fund transfers and missed finance-staff interviews; the council approved both the procedures contract and the expanded audit while Knaus pressed for accountability over roughly $120,000 in untraceable transfers.
Speicher Park Ballfields Contingency Increase
A proposed $1.3 million boost to the contingency budget for the Speicher Park ballfields, bringing it to about $2.04 million, signals rising project costs for a Ward 2 park.
Feldheym Central Library improvement project
A $10.2 million renovation of the Feldheym Library moved forward with an $8.3 million construction contract — ADA upgrades, backup power, HVAC, security. Most is state grant money, but the council had to find $3.8 million locally and chose the Measure S fund balance over cutting other park and street projects.
