The agreement continues to allow the Parks Department to maintain the EHA property in exchange for continued use of the property as a public park. Additionally, the new agreement allows the City to make improvements to the property with EHA reimbursing the City for such improvements if EHA determines that the property can no longer be used as a public park in the future. This important clause allows the City to use both capital and grant dollars to make improvements to the property. Recommendation (exact action requested of Council): Approve the Mayor to sign the Agreement to use property for Wiggum’s Hollow Park.
