Parks & Recreation cost‑recovery report: West Shore Trail estimate falls by $600,000 but $2.7M of outside funding remains unsecured
Summary
Parks staff presented annual cost‑recovery reporting and business operations data, said a 60% design reduced West Shore Trail Segment 1 estimate by $600,000, and noted about $2.7 million in outside funding requests remain unsecured—making 2026 construction conditional on obtaining that funding.
The director of Parks & Recreation presented the department's cost‑recovery reporting under the policy approved in August and summarized programming and business operations for the district. Staff explained the methodology, the use of five‑year averages to smooth one‑off expenses, and the migration of point‑of‑sale systems to CivicRec to improve data collection.
On capital, staff reported an interim 60% design for West Shore Trail Segment 1 that reduced the construction estimate by approximately $600,000, but cautioned that about $2.7 million of outside funding requests are not yet secured. “This project is dependent upon receipt of additional funding for construction in 2026,” staff said, emphasizing the conditional nature of the 2026 construction schedule. Staff also called out a roughly $50,000 pavement maintenance item for the boat ramp and other one‑time maintenance costs included in business operations.
