The city paid out a change order and a construction pay application to All American Concrete for the Community Center parking lot — the project is moving along.
Parks & Recreation Commission - Sep 3, 2026
The Rec Center parking lot project has dragged all summer with contractors rarely on site, frustrating drivers who can't tell if areas are closed. Penalties kick in September 30, and a switch from asphalt to concrete between speed bumps is being priced.
Parks & Recreation Commission - Jun 4, 2026
Work on the NLCC east and west parking lots will run all summer in phases, limiting parking near the library, recreation center, pool, and Ranshaw House. Plan for alternate routes and parking.
City Council - Apr 28, 2026
The council accepted the bid and authorized the contract for Phase 1 of the Community Center parking lot project, with staff calling the bids strong.
City Council - Apr 14, 2026
Plans and cost estimates for the community center parking lot got final approval, including realigning the south side driveway to line up with Cherry Street. Construction should mean more and better-organized parking at a busy community hub.
Parks & Recreation Commission - Mar 5, 2026
