ITEM 8 (701-06)
DOG PARK DONOR RECOGNITION SIGN
City Manager Bowersox provided a brief overview of the staff report. The Dog Park
Lighting Committee was established by local dog lovers to raise funding for the lighting of
the Dog Park. After successfully accomplishing their goal, the committee requested that
a plaque be placed at the park recognizing its members' hard work and also those who
donated $100 or more. Since reviewing the staff report, the Dog Park Committee has
suggested, that due to the estimated cost of the sign, the committee members' names not
be included. Their hope is that showing only the donor names would reduce the size and
cost of the proposed sign. Thus staff is revising their recommendation to approve the
concept of the committee and appropriate funds.
Motion by Deputy Mayor Emery, seconded by Councilmember Goldby, to approve the
concept and appropriate funds. Motion carried unanimously.
