The City Council considered a staff presentation and community proposal to redesign Legacy Park to add more amenities aimed at teenagers and young adults — proposed features included a small concert venue, snack kiosk, pickleball court, outdoor gym/rock-climbing wall, bench swings and expanded shade and landscaping.
Presenters described existing conditions as underused open space with limited shade and mostly playground facilities for younger children; they suggested adding features to draw more teenagers and create a destination adjacent to the Legacy Trail and boat launch. Council and presenters discussed potential impacts on neighboring apartments and condos, construction noise (presenters proposed daytime work only), maintenance costs (not yet estimated), and an approximate multi-year timeline (presenters estimated 5 to 10 years for full implementation if approved).
After debate and a procedural sequence of motions, the council recorded a final outcome that the redesign plan was not adopted; the clerk announced the final tally as yeas 5, nays 2 and stated "The plan is not adopted." Two separate efforts to deny or continue the item occurred during the meeting before the final vote. Council members requested additional planning-stage cost estimates and stakeholder coordination with county finance and public works if the item returns.
The council did not approve the redesign at this meeting; staff indicated that further community engagement and a detailed budget would be part of any future planning phase.
