Parks staff proposed a two‑phase renovation of Colorado Ballpark (three fields, centralized amenities) with Phase 1 estimated at $7.85M and Phase 2 at $8.91M; the city has a $1M state reimbursement and $800K park fund appropriation but will need additional financing for construction.

Staff summarized Assembly Bill 1572 (adopted 2023) that phases restrictions on irrigating nonfunctional turf and outlined the city's required code amendments, the extended compliance timeline for disadvantaged communities (until Jan. 1, 2031 when funding is available), and next steps for ordinance readings and turf inventories.
