Secretary Leah addressed the council to inform them the project they they had last year for
them to take before the council for approval. They put this whole project together and had a
layout and drawings of a new Recreation Center. Park improvements for Johnson and Pittman
Park as well is a project that they Mayor has recommended for them to do this year for the
project that they want to take before the council. This is something the city is already looking
into as well. The lighting, walking trails, and many more things to get our parks better and
