# Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting 20261008 173225 Meeting Recording 1

The City of Englewood Parks and Recreation Commission meeting, recorded October 8, 2026 (the metadata lists October 9 UTC), covered an age-friendly community plan, neighborhood feedback, commission goals, and park and recreation capital projects. The age-friendly plan was developed with consultant Agent Dynamics and will guide priorities over three to five years, including transportation access, home-repair resources, social connection, and accessible facilities. Staff also described recent renovations at the Malley recreation center and said additional costs are emerging as work proceeds, without giving a total. The commission approved the September 10 minutes as corrected; no procurement-related vote by the commission was reported.

Capital-project updates included City Council approval of a $300,000 contract with Vortex and a separate splash-equipment purchase using cooperative purchasing, which secured 2026 pricing and a 5% discount. The Miller Field RFP had been issued, and RFPs for Clarkson and Bard parks were planned for later in the year; a Bellevue Park RFP was also expected, with commission members invited to help review applications. Staff reported that phase two of the RTO project is under contract with Fleet Industries. Council also approved an intergovernmental agreement with Arapahoe County; related plans were at 60% design, with a possible increase in the funding limit from $600,000 to $750,000 discussed. A $10,000 windscreen addition for pickleball courts and planned lobby furniture funding through a trust fund were also mentioned.
