Parks manager asks committee to complete park-assessment walks by Sept. 11 for annual report

Parks Manager Daniel Torres asked committee members to inspect park assets and complete an assessment form — available as a fillable digital form or printable copy — so staff can compile the committee’s evaluations into the annual parks report.

“We do highly encourage each committee member to take the time, walk these sites,” Torres said, and asked members to submit assessments by September 11 so staff can include the results in the December cycle when the annual report work begins. One committee member said they had sent an assessment late for a prior meeting; Torres said staff would search for it and reiterated the deadline.

Torres also summarized maintenance work noted in the financial report: scheduled fertilization in September, recent parking-lot sealing, and new bark at Heritage and Windsong parks. Committee members asked staff to confirm receipt of agenda-packet materials and vendor-level financials ahead of future meetings.
