Director Bradshaw explains that $30,000 has been added to Professional Services to hire a
Retail Recruitment Firm and an adjustment was made to the sales tax revenue. She also
explains that due to time constraints with RFPs and City Council meeting deadlines, she
does not think the Downtown Park Project and Miracle League Project will make this year’s
budget so she added to professional services $65,000 for the Downtown Park Conceptual
Plan and $65,000 for the Miracle Field Conceptual Plan. Board member Piercy wants to wait
on hiring a recruitment firm and revisit this subject during the following budget year. Board
member Bilyeu suggests the board allocates $10,000 of the $30,000 towards the Property
Enhancement Grant program, $10,000 towards the Downtown Park Conceptual Plan, and
$10,000 towards the Miracle Field Conceptual Plan.

$30,000 originally budgeted for a recruitment firm and reallocate $10,000 to the Property
Enhancement Grant Program, $10,000 to the New Downtown Park Conceptual Plan, and
$10,000 to the Downtown Park Conceptual Plan. Board Member Fuller seconded the
