Parks director proposes switching activity guide to postcard mailer to save costs
Summary
Parks Director Deal proposed replacing the full activity-guide booklet with a postcard mailer to reduce publication and preparation costs; council discussed potential savings and logistics at the July 9 retreat.
Parks Director Deal presented a proposal to reduce publishing costs by replacing the department's activity-guide booklet with a postcard mailer. Deal said the postcard approach would lower printing and preparation expenses and recommended the change as a budget-savings measure tied to the broader FY27 cost discussions.
Councilors discussed logistics and potential savings but did not take a formal vote on the change at the retreat. The proposal was considered alongside the pay-plan funding conversation as one practical step to reduce discretionary costs.
