Park Sign Replacement Plan The City of Hugo neighborhood parks have used a standard park sign. The signage in 8 parks is needing to be replaced due to age and inevitable wear and tear. There are 9 parks that do not currently have a sign and the Commission could choose to install one. There are 2 parks that have monument signs that are in good shape- Lions Volunteer Park and Hanifl Fields Athletic Park. It is 2023 goal of the Parks Commission to draft a park sign and landscaping replacement plan. Staff will review the existing signage and present options to the Commission to start discussions on a replacement plan. A MAP OF EXISTING PARKS IS ATTACHED.
