PRAB Motion:
8. Walker Park Tennis Court Funding Request
Park and Recreation staff request funding in the amount of $25,682 for renovations of the
Walker Park tennis and basketball court from the Southeast Park Land Dedication Fund.
This project consists of renovating two tennis courts and one basketball court. The
renovation of Wilson Park tennis court was higher than anticipated, therefore decreasing
the funds needed for Walker Park courts. These funds would supplement current funding
for this project.
