in rearranged zones to distribute money more evenly.

Director of Parks & Recreation Schmitz responded that within the 29 parks zones there is approximately
$1.2 million in surplus monies.
Commissioner Warner asked how often the park zone balances are audited.
Director Schmitz responded that an audit is done once a quarter.
