The council unanimously approved the Jackrabbit Hill Park Master Development Plan, a proposed 11‑acre neighborhood park with playgrounds, a plaza, multi‑use turf, courts and trails. Staff estimated project costs at approximately $8.7 million (including contingency) and ongoing maintenance at about $110,000/year.

City Manager and finance staff presented the proposed FY2026‑27 budget (General Fund revenues ~$124.35M; proposed expenditures ~$124.3M; ending balance meeting reserve policy). Parks & Recreation outlined a multi‑year strategy to increase cost recovery for recreation services from ~64% toward 70% over 2–3 years through fee updates, partnerships and operational efficiencies.

The council authorized a professional services agreement not to exceed $279,730 with Romo Studios and accepted a $425,000 state grant to fabricate and install a bronze Johnny Cash sculpture on city property west of the Johnny Cash Bridge; the remaining grant funds (approx. $145,000) will be used for site work. Council approved the resolution unanimously.
