Council approves Lions' Club rock garden; town to pay about $800 for sidewalk extension
Summary
Council approved a Lions' Club proposal to create a rock garden/path at Leffingwell Park, with the town contributing approximately $800 to extend a sidewalk between the school and library and students painting rocks to line the path.
The Huachuca City Council unanimously approved a proposal on April 9 to create a rock garden/path in Leffingwell Park in partnership with the Lions' Club and Huachuca City School. Town Manager Suzanne Harvey described the plan and its costs during the meeting.
"The Town will spend approximately $800.00 to extend the sidewalk between the School and the Library using edging and millings and the school children will paint rocks to line that path," Harvey said. The project was presented as a low-cost public-works and community-engagement effort. Councilmember Cynthia Butterworth seconded the motion; the minutes record the motion as passing unanimously.
The proposal calls for the town to fund the sidewalk extension and for schoolchildren to decorate rocks that will line the path, combining modest town spending with a student-led public-art element. No additional budgetary authorizations beyond the $800 sidewalk work were recorded in the minutes.
