Committee approves Jim Yeager memorial bench for Beach Park; donor to fund $2,400
Summary
The Parks & Recreation Committee approved a memorial bench for Jim Yeager at Beach Park playground; donor donation reduced from $2,900 to $2,400 because a concrete pad is not required, and staff estimate installation within about four weeks after order and plaque approval.
The committee approved a memorial bench request submitted by Caroline to place a 5-foot memorial bench honoring Jim Yeager at the Beach Park playground. Staff described map options and relocation of an existing bench to accommodate the new bench in the wood-chip playground area; the committee moved and adopted the request by voice vote.
The application listed a donor payment of $2,900, which staff said could be reduced to $2,400 because a concrete pad will not be installed in that location. Staff estimated vendor delivery at about two weeks, plaque proof and donor sign-off to follow, and roughly one week for staff to install and move the existing bench—approximately four weeks total if there are no shipment delays.
