The Parks Director presented capital requests, with the top priority being Moon Park playground redevelopment, which requires a $250,000 match for a pending DCNR grant. The board discussed phasing a new pavilion, parking, and multipurpose court. The emergency management trailer approved in 2015 will be completed. The Technology Director requested a 2-channel HD digital playout server and four JVC cameras for the production trailer, noting old equipment would be sold; he also reported that the Robert Morris University trailer agreement is ending. Facilities items include floor covering, ventilation, and roof work approved but not completed in 2015, plus Cherrington/Library projects totaling about $40,000 and a Tahoe replacement for $25,000 after trade-in.
