Board redirects its beautification budget to art pads in six parks ($14,295) and a Route 66 emblem ($6,000)
On August 10, 2021, after the second request for qualifications drew no applications, the board voted unanimously to fund six cement pads at $1,000 each as platforms for public art, modeled on the platforms at the new Thompson Park Pool, and to give $6,000 toward painting a Route 66 emblem on the water tower in San Jacinto. On September 14 staff reported quotes for pads at El Alamo, Bones Hooks, Sam Houston and Memorial parks, Rick Klein Trails and John Stiff Park totaling an estimated $14,295, and the board voted unanimously to cover the full cost.[1][2]
