Summary

Staff said the parks department applied for a grant to supply AEDs to parks and will capture video at Wednesday night pickleball (when courts are full) to support the application.

The parks department has applied for a grant to obtain AED defibrillators for city parks and plans to submit a short video showing activity at the pickleball courts to bolster the application.

The staff member said Wednesday night is the busiest time at the courts and planned to shoot footage and add a voiceover for the grant submission: "By tomorrow night, Go take video and explain why we need an AED," the staff member said. Staff argued AEDs are needed because cardiac emergencies can occur during games or practices and added they would try to secure multiple devices for high‑use parks if the grant is awarded.

No grant award decision was reported at the meeting; staff will complete the video and submit the application as part of the grant process.
