Parks and Rec 11/3/26

The Lyman Parks and Recreation meeting on November 3, 2026, reviewed the October minutes, which members said needed no changes. Members discussed upcoming programming, including a monthly painting event, summer concert dates, a possible Halloween activity, the holiday tree lighting, and a holiday light contest. A budget discussion was planned for a later meeting with the library; no budget allocations or contract awards were made at this meeting.

For event expenses, members agreed to order a banner for the tree lighting, with a prior estimate of about $75–$80 and a possible cost of up to $100; a member agreed to place the order. Members also discussed purchasing cookies for the event, though no amount or formal approval was recorded. A concert at Bunganut was being developed with 12OC, with lighting and equipment questions still under discussion; an electrical upgrade at the site was described as outside Parks and Recreation’s responsibility. No formal procurement vote was identified.
