Public commenters urge Fitness Center bond and local candidate announces county commission run
Summary
During public comment, Isaac Paxton announced a run for county commissioner and Scott Roudabush, chair of Parks & Recreation, urged council support for a bond to replace or substantially improve the Fitness Center, saying the Parks committee plans to give unanimous support.
Two members of the public used the 20-minute public comment period to address separate topics. Isaac Paxton said he is running for county commissioner and described prior public service in Provo, including work on the Provo Airport expansion.
Scott Roudabush, chair of the Parks and Recreation Committee, urged the council to consider a bond for a new Fitness Center or substantial improvements to the existing facility. Roudabush said committee members have talked with residents across the city and "are on the same page supporting a bond for a new recreation center," and he said the committee intends to give unanimous support for a new facility or substantial improvements. The comments were provided as public input and did not trigger immediate council action on the bond; council members expressed appreciation for public involvement.
