| | | | | | | | Discussion:
The Planning and Development Department is seeking approval to apply to the DNR Metro CPL Grant. The department is asking for funding to conduct an extensive archaeological study of the entire Memorial Park area, including south of Hwy 101 at the west end of the park. This study will not include areas already conducted for the Memorial Bridge and Amazon stormwater diversion projects. Funding would also include restoring parts of the park to its native prairie land/vegetation and removal of items, such as the volleyball court and playground. This funding aligns with the city's Master Parks Plan approved summer 2019. | | |

A 10% match is required for the Metro CPL Grant which is covered in the Park Asset Internal Serv. Fund. | | |
