Development Fund at their work session. Staff will request City Council
consider approval of these budgets at their next meeting.
During City Council discussions, an idea was presented concerning future
permanent park shelter buildings. Staff and Council members felt it was
important to locate permanent park buildings within expanded service areas in
order to best serve the residents. These buildings would be similar to Parkview
and North Park and are used for warming houses as well as community rooms.
