Harbor Shores to advance up to $40,000 for Jean Clark Park repairs; commission approves
Summary
Harbor Shores representative reported boardwalk and restroom repairs completed and offered up to $40,000 to cover remaining work; the commission approved the advance and asked for receipts and documentation to demonstrate how the funds will be spent.
The commission approved a resolution authorizing an agreement with Harbor Shores to advance up to $40,000 for repairs at Jean Clark Park.
Harbor Shores representative Chris Cook told the commission that the boardwalk repairs and restroom work have already been completed, hazardous benches removed, and replacement benches ordered; he said the $40,000 advance aligns with an annual lease payment and would effectively be net-zero when accounting for that payment. Commissioners pressed for documentation and line-item receipts to verify work and asked for prioritization of safety items such as the boardwalk, the lift station and bathroom fixtures.
Commissioner Henry and others said they need written confirmation and receipts to ensure the city receives full value. Harbor Shores agreed to provide receipts for all work. The commission voted to approve the agreement; the record reflects support after discussion on scope and accountability.
Outcome: Resolution authorizing Harbor Shores to advance up to $40,000 for Jean Clark Park repairs approved; Harbor Shores to provide documentation of expenditures to the city.
