The city also made a proposal for improvements to Luckie Park. Each presenter will have approximately three minutes to make their case before the council.
The council will also host a public hearing on the results of the census and its potential impact on the city’s district voting map. This will be the third of four required public hearings.
Other discussion items include a new shade structures at Luckie Park and City Hall; a land purchase for Pioneer Park, and a mid-year financial report.
