TJT Walking Trail Fitness Project (Motion J. Massey 2nd by Cerrington Massey) All in
favor
Donation of a $5,000 grant to support the addition of five fitness stations along the
walking trail, promoting health and wellness in our community and a bench.
Chicken Anderson Park Lighting (Motioned by Caniel Massey 2nd Tolley) All in favor

Modular Restroom Initiative (Motion J. Massey 2nd by Cerrington Massey) All in favor
1
Obtain quotes and will in the future seek donations for a modular-style restroom to
serve park visitors. While it may begin as a single-unit facility, we believe this will be a
meaningful first step in improving park amenities.
Texas New Mexico emailed to request they replace and fix any lights at the Parks.
Work Day (Motion by Tolley 2nd by Caniel Massey) All in favor
We are looking into having a work day where all city organizations can assist in
implementing these goals on Oct 4.
