Parks report: driving range boosts revenue; pools and programs wrap up July
Summary
Parks staff reported strong revenue from a new automated driving range that has doubled expected income, modest decreases in open-swim attendance, and program updates including accessibility work at Bishop Park and extended splash-pad hours.
Parks representative Jan told the board July was a busy month with several initiatives: accessibility improvements planned at Bishop Park, new split-rail and basketball-court fencing, and a ribbon-cutting for the driving range. Jan said the driving range has "surpassed that and doubled it," referencing revenue estimates the parks staff had expected.
Jan also reported pool attendance was roughly 90 fewer open-swim visits than last year but that swim-lesson enrollment rose by 126 participants this season with support from the community foundation. Splash pads remain open through Labor Day and staff outlined several upcoming maintenance and fencing projects. The board accepted the parks department's monthly report.
