Council defers advisory referendum on Scott Family Park until after informational meeting
Summary
Parks committee presented options for the Scott Family Park campground and recommended an October informational meeting; council voted to defer deciding whether to put a nonbinding referendum on an upcoming ballot until after that informational session.
Parks committee members outlined financials, benchmarking and grant possibilities for the Scott Family Park campground and said they will present facts and options — sell, repair, outsource operations, or continue city ownership — at a public informational meeting in October.
Council debated whether to put an advisory (nonbinding) referendum before voters in November or defer to a later election. Members were divided on turnout and timing; a motion to defer placement of the referendum until after the October informational meeting passed, leaving future ballot timing to be determined once staff and committee present fuller data.
