goal is to break ground after Friendly City Days. The project will enter the
bidding phase soon.

open for bidding, the plan is to get numbers for the water feature piece as well
and see if the project fits into the budget.
3. Internal Trail System - The desire for a trail system is still there, however, the
playground takes precedence.
4. Field Updates - Field #1 needs new lighting. Adam and Tim are going to see
how soon this needs to be updated.

1. Main Street Updates - This project is expected to start after Friendly City Days.
It has reached the advertisement phase. Bidding will come next.

approves of the idea, but more work needs to be done on the design and the
playground takes precedence.
