Committee approves March minutes; orders buttons, addresses budget and outreach
Summary
The committee approved the March 2025 meeting minutes, discussed new identification buttons for members, and reiterated constraints on committee apparel due to budget and parity with other committees.
At the start of the meeting the Sweet Home Park and Tree Committee approved its March 2025 meeting minutes by voice vote. A member moved to approve the minutes and another member seconded; the chair called for the ayes and the minutes were approved. The motion text recorded in the meeting was "Approve meeting minutes for March 2025." The meeting record does not name the mover and seconder.
Under new business staff reported that identification buttons reading "Park and Tree Committee" have been ordered to help members be identifiable at events. A staff member explained the committee chose a low-cost button option because of tight budgets and parity concerns with other city committees: "...we're just trying to make sure that everything's being used properly. But, yes, budget is very tight right now. Very tight," Angela said.
Committee members discussed prior funding for T-shirts and jackets but were told current budgets and logo-use policies limit apparel purchases; staff offered to revisit options later if budget conditions change. Members also confirmed staff will upload the committee minutes and event flyers to the city council packet so councilors have access to event materials and minutes.
