Summary

City Manager reported the city launched a monthly farmers market and completed artificial turf installation for exercise equipment at Cooper Park; staff will adjust swing heights following resident feedback.

The City Manager of West Miami told commissioners Oct. 1 that the city held the first monthly farmers market the previous Saturday and completed installation of artificial turf around exercise equipment at Cooper Park.

Why it matters: The farmers market is intended as a recurring community event; the turf project supports park use and maintenance. City staff said they received positive public feedback about the turf.

Details: The manager said the farmers market will be held once a month and that the turf installation was completed earlier the same day. Commissioners and staff also noted complaints from a resident about swing heights after the turf installation; the manager said the swings would be raised a couple of links (adjusted) to address the concern.

Next steps: Parks staff will adjust swing heights and continue operating the monthly farmers market; no additional budget figures or schedules were discussed on the record.
