Parks supervisor reports lights delayed, crew shorthanded

David Martinez, identified in the meeting as “Sprint supervisor,” updated the board on several park projects. He said the contractor and utilities are coordinating shipment and installation of materials for ballfield lights and that the city is waiting for three poles and a meter loop before lights can be energized. Martinez noted the parks crew is small — roughly three staff covering multiple sites — and that staff are coordinating with schools for field access and manual maintenance tasks.
