Summary

Commissioners urged ADA upgrades to park restrooms; public works confirmed ADA improvements appear in the CIP but have not been completed, and the commission requested a breakdown of park fund balances to match ideas to available funds.

A commissioner asked whether park restrooms have been made ADA-compliant; public works staff replied they have not been completed yet but confirmed the upgrades are included in the capital improvement plan. "We have not done that. It is in the CIP, but, we have not done it yet," staff said, and noted funding constraints but acknowledged ADA upgrades are a priority.

Given competing project ideas, commissioners asked staff to bring a multi-fund park development balance sheet so commissioners can match proposals to available funds rather than proposing projects that exceed current balances. Staff agreed to bring that information to a future meeting and said it did not appear the numbers had changed much in recent years.
