What the records say

The agenda bill said staff sought council feedback on the design because it will be the basis for further design work on the park, and stated no action was required at that time 1. The packet included the preferred conceptual design document plus summaries of two phases of public engagement, which the source describes as informing the design 1. The agenda bill also notes the Parks and Recreation Board voted unanimously to recommend the preferred conceptual design at its Nov. 14, 2024 meeting 1.
