Woodburn announced a complete renovation of Selmaier Park and a full pool renovation with a new community room and fitness center; the pool will not reopen until sometime next summer and the park will close for about four months during construction.

"It will not be open until sometime next summer," the mayor said of the pool, and added the park renovation is "well overdue" for one of the city's older parks. He asked residents to return once the work is completed and said the renovated park will be "a true asset to the city."

The council did not take formal budget action during the meeting segment; the mayor characterized the projects as progressing on schedule and cost but did not provide contract specifics, funding sources or firm reopening dates during the recorded remarks.
