Councilmember Specht shared that he loves the Playground Replacement Plan as he often hears feedback from residents about the playgrounds. He asked if the additional area at Alpine Park is needed. Parks and Assistant Public Works Director Riverblood explained that the judges came up with this plan and sold him on it. He noted that the proximity of a nice lot to this playground makes a lot of sense. Councilmember Musgrove shared that she asked this same question to the Parks and Recreation Commission. She said part of this discussion was that Staff looked at this and said it would be easier to mow the whole area rather than how they have to mow the current areas. Councilmember Woestehoff asked if this will be the same equipment that was done at Elmcrest Park. Parks and Assistant Public Works Director Riverblood said yes. Councilmember Woestehoff shared he likes the consistency of this. Motion by Councilmember Musgrove, seconded by Councilmember Specht, to Adopt Resolution #24-045 authorizing up to $200,000 from the Lawful Gambling Fund for the refurbishment of River's Bend Park's playground and the replacement of Alpine Park's playground, pursuant to the proposals received and the Playground Replacement Plan and Policy.
