Park Priority List The Board discussed the priority list for park improvements. The Board
will have about $70,000 to spend on this years budget because it was
allocated for the Jumping Branch Trail study, but will not be needed.
The Board requested that Jeff Rupp, Director of Public Works,
investigate the cost of doing a study on Renner Brenner Park and E.H
Young park to see what improvements and major changes will be
necessary in the future. This information could be useful in planning
next years budget. The Boazd will work out what to use the money for
at next months meeting. The boazd asked staff to find out and report at
the next meeting whether or not money not used by the Park Board this
yeaz can roll over to next yeazs budget.
Welcome Plaza Christmas Rupp received the cost estimate and more samples from Manneco
Lights regarding the Christmas decorations for the Welcome Plaza.
Rule commented that the decorative ornaments for the tree needed to be
a bit bigger. She suggested that they order the next size bigger on all
the ornaments.
The board unanimously decided on the platinum garland with white
lights and red bows with lighted centers. They also decided on the
snow burst with the red center for the top of the tree.
Mayor Rose said that she would like to get a new tree to put at the
Welcome Plaza and leave the other at City Hall.
Rupp said that after the bids come in for the construction of the
Welcome Plaza, he would like to do a change order to have the hooks
for the light to be built into the structure for the Christmas decorations.
