4 issues in parks rec with medium priority
Aquatics & Recreation Facility
The commission gets its regular rundown on everything the department runs — programs, events, aquatics, sports, arts, rentals, and park maintenance. It's how residents' recreation services are tracked and shaped.
Santa Fe Master Plan
The draft plan for Santa Fe Station Park includes a riparian area, natural landscapes, shade trees, solar bollards, exercise stations and natural play features. A community survey of 318 responses showed shade is the top priority, with seating and disc golf improvements close behind. Some budget is available this year for improvements, with updates coming back to the Commission.
Santa Fe Station Park Disc Golf Controversy
Despite 84% survey support for the park master plan, Councilmembers Kiehl and Greer argued the 18-hole disc golf course endangers other park users — including children and a blind resident — and pressed for relocation. The mayor countered that no injuries have been reported and the course stays until a dedicated one is built.
Automated Materials Handling and RFID Project
The library is installing new automated materials handling equipment with RFID readers and self-checkout stations, plus new Envisionware print/payment software replacing GoPrint and Cybrarian on October 20. Expect less than a day of computer downtime.
