Summary

Dear Colleagues of Executive Committee,

 

In light of the items before us that give consideration to various parks funding matters (the Rail Deck Park, Parks Master Plan, Capital Budget Variance), it would be prudent for Executive Committee to receive a status update and overview of the cash-in-lieu of parkland reserves.

 

I would appreciate your support of my report request.
