Hills Park and Community Center;
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Special Donations Capital Projects

Improvement project (City Project No. 104594);

4. Amend the Fiscal Years 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Program.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to request authorization to fund facility improvements and renovations at Highland
Hills Community Center.
On December 22, 2022, the Park & Recreation Department (PARD) received an anonymous restricted donation designated for facility
improvements and renovations at Highland Hills Community Center. All potential expenditures have been and will continue to be discussed with the
Highland Hills Neighborhood Association and community members. Upon receipt of the donation, the City Manager's Office has agreed to match
the donation 1:1 using funds in the Future Community Partnerships project (P00047). The Future Community Partnerships project is a holding
place for monies the City has committed to be available for use in conjunction with community partners for capital improvements.
Acceptance of this donation will allow for facility renovations and Americans with Disability Act (ADA) improvements. Additionally, funds will allow
for the purchase of capital items to enhance recreation programs. Staff will continue to meet with the Highland Hills Neighborhood Association to
prioritize projects upon approval of the M&C.
Funding for this project was not included in the FY2023-2027 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) since the donation wasn't
anticipated. This action in this M&C will amend the Fiscal Years 2023-2027 Capital Improvement Program as approved in connection with
Ordinance 25773-09-2022, Section 7. Capital Improvements, as listed on page 24.
