Parks Commission Meeting/Tour of Parks 9-14-2026 - 6 PM

The City of Franklin Parks Commission held a parks tour on September 14, 2026, visiting Mission Hills Wetland, Market Square Park and Gazebo, Kayla’s Playground, and Pleasant View Park. Commissioners discussed routine maintenance, park use and closing-time enforcement, trails and natural areas, tree and landscape care, pickleball court access, and accessible amenities at Kayla’s Playground. Mission Hills Wetland was described as a 13.6-acre site with no current plans for paths or play structures. Market Square’s pavilion rental fee was noted as $225, with a $150 security deposit; no fee changes or purchasing decisions were proposed.

The commission agreed to pass on participating in this year’s trunk-or-treat event because no one volunteered to organize it. The August meeting minutes were approved, and the commission adjourned. No procurement activity, contract awards, bid approvals, or spending actions were identified.
