Typically discussed at Advisory Recreation Board. Check back when the next agenda is published.

The Story

Council signed off 9-0 on a not-to-exceed $27,373.60 contract for boat-launch work at Paddlers Park. City materials describe a larger $60,000 package that also includes sidewalks, a walkway to the launch, signage, and picnic tables—so the practical question for residents is what else gets contracted and built, and when.
