Parks staff to reopen recreation-coordinator and maintenance roles; amphitheater work expected by September
Summary
Parks staff said the recreation coordinator and a maintenance position will be posted, engineering for the amphitheater is moving forward with possible September site work, and the department is considering equipment or budget items for leaf management as trees mature.
Parks staff told the board they will reopen hiring for the recreation coordinator position and for another maintenance position that became vacant. Staff also said engineering work for the amphitheater is progressing, and dirt-moving could begin as soon as September depending on contractor schedule.
Staff raised operational concerns tied to recent park growth: as newly planted trees mature they will shed leaves that require collection and disposal. "We need a system," staff said, proposing equipment purchases or an additional crew member and noting that some costs may need to be added to future budgets. Board members asked staff to develop a line-item proposal and timeline for recruitment and capital needs.
