City Hall Park - continue discussion on splash pad, playground, picnic area and shelter . <br />Council Member Gary Meehlhause: Feels that a portion of the playground replacement <br />should come out of the Park Dedication Fund-whatever we may spend to replace the <br />current playground in the next few years. The Commission has concerns about taking <br />money out of Park Dedication Fund since this was an upfront understanding that this <br />project would be financed through Special Project Fund and throughout our conversations <br />with the City Council. Direct Staff to get a rough estimate of cost to replace the <br />existing playground at City Hall in that space. That may be what the Commission would <br />agree to spend out of PDF to contribute to the project if the City Council were to expect <br />some monies out of PDF. <br />8. NEW BUSINESS <br />A.
