A Utah Recreation Trails Program review committee recommended funding for several high‑priority projects — including an adaptive recreation equipment pilot for Utah State Parks and trail maintenance at Bears National Monument — and split limited education funds among priority applicants after extensive debate about budgets and sustainability.

The committee recommended multiple Parks & Recreation items to the board, including applying for a Michigan Bird City designation, one-year residential lease renewals, a telecommunications-license amendment with Verizon, creation of two parks positions (referred to finance), and several grants including a $250,000 match for Royal Oak restrooms and a ~ $2.17 million Turtle Woods acquisition referral to finance. Most motions passed unanimously.

Recreation Department enhances staff workspace and seeks community input on adaptive programs.
