Council reviews park planning work, grant searches and staffing concerns
Summary
Councilor Michele Tesdal reported on park planning efforts including seeking grants, considering where structures could be placed, and addressing off‑season and busy‑season staffing and care; no funding decisions were made at the work session.
Councilor Michele Tesdal briefed the council on ongoing park planning, noting staff are looking at grant opportunities and potential locations for park structures.
"The things that are being looked at are grants, and where structures could be placed," Tesdal said, and she flagged staffing and care of the park during both off‑season and busy season as items that need planning. The council discussed operational considerations but did not adopt a funding strategy or award any grants at the session.
Tesdal's update was presented as part of a broader review of city operational items; council members asked that staff continue to investigate possible grant sources and return with more detailed cost estimates and placement plans in future meetings.
