BACKGROUND
As the City moves forward with the development of a new Public Works Department and Police
Department Campus, the City has an opportunity to plan for the reuse of what will be the old Public
Works campus. At last month's Commission meeting, we reviewed and discussed three Master Plan
concepts that show a combined Central Park and the former Public Works Campus. The goal is to make
the space more attractive to residents because of the wide variety of recreation opportunities. This
area is already home to the bandshell/amphitheater, Central Park shelter, playground, outdoor skating,
splash pad, sun shelter, veteran’s memorials and walking trails. The concept plans show expanded
parking areas, additional trails, a new playground space, phase 2 of the splash pad, reuse of a large
garage as a recreation facility and much more.
Staff will lead the Commission on a walking tour of Central Park and Public Works Campus and discuss
the concept plans in further detail with the Commission at the meeting on Monday.
Staff will have concept plan handouts at the meeting.
RECOMMENDATION
None, discussion only.

Spring Clean Up - Spring Clean-Up was held on May 20th at DCTC, which had a great turn out.
Residents were able to recycle and dispose of items that are not normally accepted by their trash
hauler. Over 400 residents came through the line on Saturday, which resulted in a line stretching west
down HWY 42. Michelle Hoagland and her Keller Williams team shredded over 6,500 pounds of paper!
Thank you to our Public Works crew and volunteers for assisting with this event. We would not be able
to do this without them!
Summer Programs - We are off to a great start to summer programming! Many Parks & Recreation
activities and programs began on June 14. Highlights include: T-Ball, Pre-School Soccer, Little
Explorers, Kid's Corner and Nerf Wars. We ended week 1 with 100 kids attending Safety Camp.
Waterpark Camp, tennis lessons, skateboard camp and puppet shows will begin on June 19.
