“Bill 50 is essentially just accepting the grant,” Parks & Recreation staff said during the committee discussion.

A committee member moved to advance the bill, saying, “I'll make a motion to move this forward favorably.” The transcript records committee members responding “Aye” when asked for a vote, and the chair moved the item to the regular council meeting; the transcript does not record an exact tally or named votes.

No amendments or conditions were recorded in the committee discussion. The action will be considered by the full council at its next regular meeting.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Parks and Recreation Committee on 2025-06-18","oneSentenceSummary","The Public Works Committee voted to move Bill 50 forward to the regular council meeting.

“We think it went well. Great attendance. Next concert is July 11, 6 to 9. And we're really excited to see, that activation grow, and the partnership with ArtsQuest being in Allentown,” Parks & Recreation staff said.

The staff update also noted a Juneteenth football tournament at J. Bernie Crum Stadium and a flag-raising at City Hall, and said Juneteenth festivities will take place at Cedar Beach Park Friday through Sunday. Staff reported that city pools and the summer playground program are open and “fully staffed.”

A committee member raised complaints received from constituents about concert noise last year, saying calls came in when music continued past 10 p.m. and that police were called to shut events down. The committee member said, “Are we going to, how are we gonna rectify that? The police had to be called actually, to shut it down.”

Parks & Recreation staff responded: “So, this year, for all concerts, both Union Terrace and Bomba, there's a hard stop at 9PM. And our team and staff are there to make sure that that happens.”

On recreation infrastructure, staff said, “phase 2 of the skate park, is moving along, and we are anticipating opening, of the skate park July or August.” Committee members had no further questions during the update.

Residents should expect the next public concert on July 11, 6 to 9 p.m., a Juneteenth flag-raising at City Hall at noon, and multi-day Juneteenth programming at Cedar Beach Park.","Parks & Recreation staff told the Public Works Committee that summer concerts are scheduled with a 9 p.m. hard stop, Juneteenth activities are set at City Hall and Cedar Beach Park, pools and playgrounds are open and phase 2 of the skate park is expected to open in July or August.","actionData","errors"]
