Mayor Nichols opened for Citizen Comments. Dr. Karl Mooney, College Station, spoke to the Council about a YMCA study showing USA Swimming's prediction that a competitive lap pool could host four major events, benefiting local hotels and businesses. He also noted that Georgetown is building a Recreation Center managed by the YMCA and expressed hope for a similar project in their city. Tre Watson of College Station shared his experience on the Recreation Center Steering Committee, noting that he felt their impact was limited to membership pricing. Mr. Watson has been advocating for a new rec center, highlighting the high demand shown by basketball events that overwhelm current facilities. He suggests that College Station should build a facility similar to Legends Event Center and partner with organizers to host more events. Valen Cepak from College Station believes using the old Macy's building may be impractical due to its size and potential overestimation of membership. He stated that Houston's largest YMCA has 20,000 members in 115,000 square feet, while local surveys show low response rates indicate little interest. He also stated that the city has 16 private gyms with rates starting at $9 a month, so the affordability of a proposed recreation center is crucial to its success. He asks if there are plans for grants or reduced rates for families and questions the feasibility without a secure partner, membership rate, and demand. He suggests more research and direct conversations with potential partners like the YMCA. There being no further comments, Citizen Comments was closed. A majority of the Council directed staff to prepare a Recreation Center proposal for a Bond Committee to seek citizens' approval. 8.2. Presentation, discussion, and possible action regarding destination wayfinding signne in College Station. Jeremiah Cook, Assistant Tourism Director, stated that in 2008, the Bryan -College Station Convention and Visitors Bureau launched a destination wayfinding initiative to enhance signage throughout Brazos County. A dedicated committee was formed to oversee a comprehensive study on optimal locations and design standards. By 2012, new signage was installed across the community, including CCM 082825 Minutes Page 5 key pedestrian and vehicular corridors in Northgate and Downtown Bryan. The original contract included a five-year maintenance agreement, which expired in 2018. Since then, the signs have experienced noticeable deterioration, with issues related to accuracy, visibility, and durability.

The Tourism Committee reviewed this item at its July 30 meeting and expressed support for continued discussions regarding the update of wayfinding signage throughout the community.
