Summary

Parks staff confirmed splash pads closed Oct. 5 and that Hannah Weider will take over as the aquatics manager; off‑season maintenance is starting.

Chris Gibson, assistant director of parks and recreation, told the board the aquatics season has ended and that the city closed splash pads on Oct. 5 so staff can move into off‑season maintenance and preparations for next year.

Gibson said staff are beginning maintenance and cleanup work and formally noted the seasonal closure to the Parks Board. He also announced a staffing change: “We do have a new aquatics manager. Her name is Hannah Weider. So she's taking Meg's place that was the previous manager.” Gibson said Weider has previous experience working at the city's aquatics location and that staff are “excited to have her.”

No operational problems or outstanding maintenance issues were raised at the meeting; staff encouraged board members to direct questions to aquatics staff if they arise during the off season.
