# Parks Commission Meeting 10-12-2026 - 6:30 PM

The City of Franklin Parks Commission met on October 12, 2026. The commission reviewed parks finances and impact-fee funds, with staff explaining that impact fees support park improvements and must be spent within a specified time period. Members suggested inviting the finance director to explain the budget after the city’s budget process concludes. No contracts, bids, or vendor awards were considered.

The commission passed a motion recommending replacement of one tennis court per budget cycle. Members discussed an estimated cost of at least $400,000 for replacing a court, with the specific cost depending on the scope and design; one member abstained. Other discussion included possible volunteer work at Victory Creek, which raised insurance and liability concerns, and park maintenance and signage. These topics did not result in a procurement action.
