Quick context to catch up fast.
The Park Commission unanimously approved a new Liberty Park monument honoring Captain Seth Michaud, with installation targeted by Memorial Day 2026 and project costs supported by available CPC funding. The commission also directed staff to discuss reducing the Moulton Park project’s scope because its estimated $5 million construction cost has no current funding and is unlikely to be secured within 6–12 months.

A new memorial for Captain Seth Michaud, who was killed in service during the Global War on Terror/Enduring Freedom, may be installed at Liberty Park by Memorial Day 2026. The larger Moulton Park and Playground redevelopment will not proceed as currently designed until funding is clearer; staff will ask the designer which elements could be removed to reduce costs. The FY27 budget was reported as reviewed and approved by the Finance Committee, and a March 18 meeting will cover dog park construction updates and draft rules.
