Park board clears Smith Building premiere, discusses meeting‑day change and outreach
Summary
The board authorized a Dec. 7 premiere at the Smith Building, agreed to consider shifting regular meetings to the third Tuesday of each month next year, and endorsed a media‑committee newsletter plan to promote events and board activity.
A motion to allow a local movie premiere in the Smith Building on Dec. 7 was presented and carried after members asked staff to finalize timing and logistics. The board instructed staff to coordinate event setup and confirmed the building’s use for the screening.
Members also discussed changing the regular monthly meeting day to the third Tuesday in order to align more closely with council and commissioners’ calendars. Several members indicated support and Chair said the board must advertise the new schedule by December.
