Council approves pitching mound purchase and $1,300 donation to Delano Senior Center
Summary
Council approved using remaining Parks & Recreation budget funds for a pitching mound at Carver Fields (costs and fund split recorded in meeting) and authorized a $1,300 donation to the Delano Senior Center for meals and transport.
Parks & Recreation staff (Speaker 12) requested approval to spend the remainder of their budget on a pitching mound for Carver Fields; council amended the motion to split the cost between Parks & Recreation and Public Works and approved the purchase unanimously. The meeting record includes inconsistent numeric formatting for the pitching mound cost (transcript cites approximately $8,415), which staff later clarified would draw remaining park funds and a contribution from public works.
Separately, staff brought an annual request from the Delano Senior Center for a $1,300 donation to support transportation and meal services for seniors; council approved the donation 5-0. Council also acknowledged holiday programming and community volunteers.
