Summary

Council approved a resolution authorizing the parks director to apply to the Bryan Area Foundation for roughly $45,000 toward a pedestrian pathway project at East End Park; the project estimate is about $74,000, subject to available funds.

The Bryan City Council approved Resolution 17-2025 authorizing the director of parks and recreation to apply to the Bryan Area Foundation for a grant to help fund a pedestrian pathway project at East End Park.

A parks staff member told the council the grant request would be for about $45,000 and that the total project estimate is roughly $74,000; the staff member said the requested amount could be adjusted depending on available foundation funding. Councilors voted to suspend the rules and approved the resolution unanimously.

Why it matters: The pathway project would add pedestrian access around East End Park. The transcript records the requested grant amount and the project estimate but does not record a grant award or a final funding plan beyond the application authorization.

The resolution was read into the record as "Resolution number 17-2025: Resolution authorizing the director of parks and recreation for the city to apply for a grant for the city of Bryan through the Bryan Area Foundation."
