Summary

Council members reviewed a proposed five-year extension (2027–2031) of Journey Bank's naming-rights agreement for Bowman Field. The mayor described two contract options provided by the bank and a Journey Bank representative said the bank is pleased to continue its sponsorship.

The Committee of the Whole on March 31 reviewed a proposed resolution to extend the existing naming-rights agreement for Bowman Field with Journey Bank. The mayor introduced the item and said Journey Bank had provided two extension options for council consideration and that staff left a selection clause blank in the draft resolution pending council direction. The mayor summarized the proposal as a five‑year extension covering 2027 through 2031.

A Journey Bank representative said the bank was "thrilled with the partnership" and that the sponsorship is a signature county-level relationship. Council members said they preferred an option with year-to-year escalation to keep the agreement aligned with future costs but deferred a final decision to the full council meeting.

The committee did not record a formal vote in the transcript; the item will move to the full council agenda for final action.
