Top issues during term (6)(Parks Rec)
Veterans memorial at Powell Cemetery
Modest city cost for installing and removing banners; veterans fund the banners themselves.
Parks master plan and Bennett Farm
$449,319 for this phase out of a $925,000 total project budget, with $200,000 covered by a state grant.
Woods of Powell pedestrian bridge replacement
$350,000, possibly covered by insurance since the bridge wasn't on the city's asset list.
Powell Pool partnership spending
Roughly $1 million over five years on top of $500,000 budgeted this year.
Winter maintenance of the Bennett Farm bike path
$49,273.81 for the equipment, offset partly by the skid steer purchase coming in under budget.
New Tree Board appointments
No financial impact — the board is advisory.
