This project will provide funding for the most critical improvement needs as identified in the Bishop Park Master Plan, as may be amended by the Mayor and Commission from time to time. Depending upon costs and funding availability, examples of eligible subprojects may include, but not be limited to, reconstruction of the aquatics area, including replacement of the pool and ancillary structures, new splash pad, pool house with restrooms, new playground with an adjacent pavilion and restrooms. To the extent available, remaining funds may be used to target the pedestrian improvement and fence project along Hawthorne Avenue. Additionally, to the extent allowed by law, funds may be used as matching funds for leveraging grant opportunities.
