DISCUSSION
INTRODUCTION:
The annual Spring into Summer Community concerts have become an important tradition for the community in celebrating summer. This is a community focused event that fosters kindness and a sense of neighborliness in a positive way to celebrate the season and bring people outdoors to enjoy our beautiful parks and wonderful weather.

STATEMENT OF URGENCY
Council action is requested for City staff to begin coordinating plans for this event.
FISCAL IMPACT
