Dedication and Park Improvement Funds
Background/Discussion
At the November 13, 2024, Work Session, staff provided the commission with an overview of the CIP for
Park Dedication and Park Improvement Funds. The commission requested additional information be gathered
for their CIP recommendation to the city council at a Parks and Recreation Commission Special Meeting on
Wednesday, November 20.
The Park Dedication Fund cash balance has decreased from last year to a current balance of about $1,025,000
as of 9/30/2024. Projects planned for 2025 include consultant fees for park development on the Jackson Street
water tower property, paving the parking lot at Hillside Park, and trail development.
The Park Improvement Fund funds the replacement and maintenance of park amenities with an annual
$250,000 transfer from the Liquor Fund. The projects prioritized by the Parks & Recreation Commission for
2025 include replacing basketball courts at Kliever Lake Fields and Deerfield/Ridgewood, updating the Parks
and Recreation Master Plan, and miscellaneous equipment replacement at several parks.
Financial Impact
Expenses vary based on individual projects.
Mission/Policy/Goal
Responsible for every dollar - good stewards.
