This proposed project, part of last year's Capital Project Improvement Plan, involves expanding the existing dirt lot into a parking area. Approval for the project was received from the city, and various construction bids have been submitted. The total project cost estimate includes a 10% contingency. A vote is required to approve a spending limit of $265,000 from the Capital Project Improvement Fund. The vote will take place on May 14, with the goal of enhancing parking facilities for members.
