Gosnell Park steps and retaining wall near completion; grant closeout targeted in August
Summary
Council was updated that concrete steps were poured and retaining-wall work is nearing completion at Gosnell Park; staff expects substantial completion in about two weeks and plans to close out the PARD grant before its August 2026 expiration.
Staff told Council that concrete for the new steps at Gosnell Park was poured, retaining-wall construction is nearing completion, and park amenities like trash cans will be installed once concrete has fully cured. Work remains on grading, reseeding and drainage improvements; staff reported that recent rain and extreme heat caused minor delays and placed the contractor roughly two days behind schedule.
Council emphasized the goal of completing the project and closing out the associated PARD grant before its August 2026 expiration. Staff noted the retaining wall replacement addressed unstable, deteriorating steps and that final grading and surface restoration will follow construction to prepare the area for public use.
