Grant FundingParks & RecreationDetected Jun 16, 2026

The Board will consider a resolution to accept 2025-2026 Raleigh/Wake Hospitality Tax funding, supported by a summary sheet and capital funding agreements for the TOWF Skate Park and JB Flaherty Park Phase II. Acceptance of these tourism-related tax funds confirms external grant-style funding for specific parks and recreation capital projects. This step solidifies the financing for the skate park and Flaherty Park Phase II, transitioning them from concept to funded capital work.Vendors in park design, skate park construction, sports facilities, site utilities, and amenities can treat this as a strong signal that detailed design, construction procurement, or change orders will follow, depending on each project’s current stage described in the capital funding agreements.

Separate capital funding agreements are listed for the TOWF Skate Park and JB Flaherty Park Phase II, suggesting both projects are moving forward under this funding source.
