3 issues in parks rec with medium priority
Centennial Square Gate Design
The CRA is continuing a project to spruce up the entry to Centennial Square Park with a decorative iron gate, new lighting, and a mural, separating the improved space from the service alley behind it. Safety and lighting of the full alley remain a board concern.
Tennis Center/Pickleball Expansion on Hold
All seven construction bids came in at $5.5 million or more against a $3.5 million estimate, so the Commission rejected them and sent the project back for a cheaper redesign. Shuffleboard players who share the site are asking that their courts survive any new plan.
Parks and Recreation budget
Parks and Recreation funding covers city parks, facilities, and recreation programs. Budget discussions here affect how well those spaces are maintained and what programs are offered.
