Jefferson Park Boat Launch construction progress
This payment adds about $40,413 to a project whose total contract now stands near $1.34 million.

No dollar figure was attached, though festival-related tourism and event activity could benefit local businesses.
Fox Valley Athletics softball partnership
Jefferson Park softball field promotional fees
Lower rental fees for now — $12.50 field prep promotional rate vs. $25 — mean modestly less revenue in exchange for more bookings.

Funded within budgeted amounts, per staff; exact figure not stated.
Employee volunteer participation in Habitat Rock the Block
No direct cost — employees use a half workday, and departments must avoid overtime.
