everyone is seeing that activity.

in early spring, describing design now includes all sections previously shared with MURB.
She highlighted how this newer site plan ties together the variety of sections of the park.

Brit Fontenot with no questions or comments.
G. 1. FYI/Discussion
Short Street Reconstruction Update
David shared update. Two different engineering plans were at play, curb mistakenly
removed creating a water problem. As required problem fix within the commission-approved
project budget, David recapped emailing the board on June 30 (see Attachment B) as to the
necessary fix and the current opportunity to take advantage of employed crew to make the
fix without delay.
Board discussion included concern for rushed process but also thanks to staff for making it
happen within the same construction season.
David noted agenda complete and asked for any questions from the board. Nolan requested
update on board consolidation plan. David noted MURB in Phase II of process with a
forecasted timing of within yr2022. Discussion followed.
David asked the board if they still wanted to do a walking tour of the District and yes was
the response. He will seek a date for this activity.
