Summary

The council approved three resolutions awarding/authorizing work tied to the Walnut Creek Regional Park splash pad project after a public hearing; Parks and Recreation Director Jan Herky attended for questions and no public opposition was recorded.

At a public hearing on May 19, the Urbandale City Council considered bids and actions related to constructing a splash pad at Walnut Creek Regional Park. Parks and Recreation Director Jan Herky attended for questions only and told the council a full presentation had been given at an earlier meeting.

No members of the public spoke for or against the item during the hearing. The council approved Resolution 159‑2026, Resolution 160‑2026, and Resolution 161‑2026, recorded in the transcript as motions carried after a motion by Rosenall and a second by Croll.

Why it matters: The splash pad is a capital project for a regional park and will affect park programming and construction plans; the approvals move contracting and construction steps forward.

What’s next: With resolutions approved, staff will proceed with contracting and project implementation steps consistent with the city’s procurement and project oversight processes.
