The board’s primary focus was the various bids received for a planned demolition project. They are set to award the contract to the lowest bidder to ensure fiscal responsibility, with the process involving thorough inspections and adherence to environmental regulations. The board emphasized the importance of public visibility for the project.

Alongside the demolition discussion, the board addressed the need for continued fundraising to support park development. They have secured approximately $600,000 and are exploring partnerships with local businesses, including Treasure Island Festival and Walmart, to further boost their fundraising efforts. The board also plans to launch an online store selling merchandise to generate additional funds.

In another notable agenda item, the board approved the purchase of a new slide for the Kids Kingdom area, selecting a model with ground support to enhance safety and durability. Additionally, they discussed the creation of a comprehensive map for Cover Bridge Park to improve visitor navigation and to potentially include sponsor advertisements.
