Summary

The Park Board approved creation of a project management team (PMT) for the skate‑park project including two board members, skate‑park representatives and the mayor (if willing) to streamline decisions and present progress to the board and council as needed.

Nick proposed forming a project management team (PMT) to streamline decisions and accelerate the skate‑park project. The PMT would include two park board members, skate‑park group representatives and, optionally, the mayor and other community members as needed. The proposal emphasized that the PMT would operate informally to prepare materials and advise staff, but ultimate approvals would still come through the Park Board and City Council as required.

Board members supported the idea as a way to reduce delays associated with waiting for formal board or council meetings for routine design and scheduling decisions. A motion to form the PMT, naming board members and skate‑park representatives and seeking mayoral participation, passed on a voice vote.

Staff will coordinate PMT membership, schedule meetings as required and return recommended check‑ins for the full board.
