(Atlantic, Iowa) – Members of Atlantic’s Parks and Recreation Department Board of Directors, Monday, will discuss a timeline and the process for filling a Park Board Vacancy. Parks Board Member Ashley Hayes is expected to announce during the Board’s meeting at 5:15-p.m. on Monday, she’s resigning from the Board due to a conflict of interest with a new, full-time position she has accepted with SWIPCO, as the part of their Community Development Team.

Mayor Grace Garrett will work with the Parks Board in the selection of a replacement for Hayes’ seat on the Board. An appointment to the Board must be made within 60-days of her official resignation.

The Parks Board meeting takes place in the Council’s Chambers at the Atlantic City Hall.

In other business, the Parks & Rec Board will hear a Budget Proposal, and updates on the Bull Creek and Splash Park projects. Discussion will be held with regard to the Hotel/Motel Tax and Sports Complex Expansion.

In his report to the Board, Parks and Rec Director Bryant Rasmussen will talk about the last day for swimming at the Sunnyside Pool as being August 28th, along with some upcoming events and the Sunnyside Bandstand.
