Park Board Meeting 7/28/2026

The City of Raymore Parks and Recreation Board held a meeting on July 28, 2026, where several procurement-related topics were discussed. Key items included updates on capital improvement projects such as the plaza at Hawkridge Park, which is being prepared for bidding by the end of August, and a watershed study near Good Parkway. The board reviewed and approved a new Video Marquee Signage Policy to govern advertising content on city video signs, with the signs currently operating 24/7. Additionally, the board considered and approved funding not to exceed $2,000 from the park maintenance budget for the Mountain Bike Trail Improvement Project at Hawkridge Park. This funding will cover the purchase and installation of a storage container and related infrastructure to support the mountain bike club's equipment storage and trail features. The board also discussed concerns about signage hours, vandalism, and liability related to the trail improvements. The meeting concluded with no public comments and adjournment motions passed.
