Top issues during term (19)(Parks Rec)
New Disciple Drive park playground contracts
About $1.4 million from the capital improvement budget for the new north Jonesboro park.
City pool lane allocation between JETS and Shark Wave swim teams
Billing and rate details from last year are still being worked out; dollar impact not yet stated.
Craighead Forest Park playground replacement grant
A $999,980 project with a potential $499,990 city match — though a Rotary capital campaign could offset some of that.
Gates and signage at Craighead Forest Park
A rolling gate bid is being sought after a swing-gate bid was rejected; cost unclear.
Crowley's Ridge Nature Center lease change
No dollar amount stated; the lease language is updated to reflect current use.
Deteriorating skate park concrete
Unknown; repairs can't wait for next year's budget according to the group.
Joe Mack Campbell Park expansion grant
$805,000 local match funded by land donation, private donations and city funds alongside $805,000 federal.
Parks rental fee increases
Higher rental fees bring revenue to the parks department but could cost families a few hundred dollars more per event.
Return of E. Boone Watson Center and community centers to public use
Parks sponsorships and marketing package
$21,700 in combined sponsorships across the four agreements; potential for more if a package is adopted.
Proposed Sports Tourism Committee
Turtle Creek Wetland Partnership outdoor classroom
$50,000 added to the capital improvement budget for the planning phase.
Craighead Forest Park pond dredging
Higginbottom Trail design contract
$131,839.77 from the capital improvement budget for design work.
Parks transparency on tournament and revenue data
Exact tournament revenue figures aren't available for past years because deposits were lumped together.
Nonprofit leases on city property
Both leases are symbolic $1-a-year rents — no meaningful revenue to the city.
Marion Berry Parkway Multiuse Trail
About $100,000 for construction oversight now; construction itself estimated at $1.7 million but capped near the $1.5 million budget.
Craighead Forest Park ATV trail rehabilitation
Costs $144,358.70, covered mostly by an RTP grant plus the capital improvement budget.
