Summary

Kyla Clark promoted city-owned amenities—pools, athletic fields and Granville Gutti Park—and urged residents to consult the parks-and-recreation brochure for rentals and activities.

Ward 2 councilmember Kyla Clark encouraged residents to rent and use city-owned facilities, saying the amenities are intended for everyone who pays city taxes. "We have our pools. We have our athletic fields. We have our, workout areas right we're here at Granville Gutti Park," Clark said, and invited residents to consult the city parks-and-recreation brochure for programming and rental details.

Clark said amenities are spread across the ward and not limited to a single location; she urged residents to "rent the areas that you help pay for for the city of Laurel" and pointed to brochures and the city website for schedules and reservation information. She also tied visible park use to accountability for public spending—saying seeing residents use facilities helps confirm the value of council decisions.
