Summary

The advisory council approved a consolidated rating slate of seven park development projects to forward to the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) request list; one previously scored project (golf pond fountains) was dropped for ranking reasons and fountain funding was reduced.

The Davenport Park and Recreation Advisory Council approved a consolidated rating of seven park development projects at its September meeting and authorized staff to forward the slate to the city's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) project request list. Staff said the advisory group originally scored eight projects; the lowest-ranked project (golf pond fountains) did not move forward. The council also discussed reducing a previously requested $30,000 allocation for water-fountain upgrades by installing fewer units to offset funding differences. A motion to accept the park development project slate was moved and seconded and approved; no abstentions were reported. Staff said the consolidated rating in the council packet represents the combined scores used to rank projects for CIP submission. The approved slate will be included on the director's CIP project request list for final budget and schedule consideration.
