Top issues during term (20)(Parks Rec)
Depew Park Improvements
City match of $91,600 for design services; total contract capped at $183,200 with grant support.
Mountain biking trails at Depew Park
Trail maintenance costs would rise if biking is formally allowed, and a council member suggested a parking fee could help pay for it.
Jet ski tours at Fleischmann Pier
Would have generated $12 per jet ski trip and $1 per small boat for the city.
Youth Bureau condition and gazebo funding
$50,000 grant requires a $5,556 city match; the other two require no match.
Community hub and NY BRICKS grant application
A $6 million grant would require a city match of $1.2 million if awarded at that level.
Public art maintenance funding
Proposed $25,000 annual allocation for sculpture repairs; funding source still being worked out.
Bicycle Regulations in City Parks
Neighborhood Center elevator panel grant
$47,500 grant plus a previously authorized ~$45,000 local match toward a $90,000 replacement.
Missing downtown benches
Community center and Sloyd youth programs
About $300,000 in grant funding is available for planning and bid documents.

Library card registration for all students
The library's tax levy proposal was submitted for the ballot.
Youth employment and arts programs
$50,000 in state grant money plus repurposed city funds keep the program alive without new county money.

The library is operating under budget this year.
Fleischmann Pier Transient Dockage Program
Dockage fees flow to revenue line 001.0001.2422.

Free to acquire, but ongoing maintenance to preserve the chrome polish will need funding.
