The Lansing City Council held its regular meeting Monday, June 1. The meeting centered around considering the consent agenda and Parks report, both of which were approved by the council.

The Parks Board is considering improvements to the sidewalks on Mount Hosmer to the flagpole. Discussion also took place regarding considerations for the summer recreation programs. In order for children to enter the Lansing Swimming Pool or the ball field to take part in the youth baseball or softball programs, they are not allowed to have a temperature any higher than 99.3 degrees. The summer recreation program is able to start practice Tuesday, June 2.

All certifications for the swimming pool, if expiring, are extended until August of this year. A motion was made and seconded to approve the Parks report.
