Director Kevin Settle wants the board to 'do something very special' and fund water slides for Parrot Island Waterpark.
A recent bid of $2.8 million to install the slides would increase the total cost to $6.35 million, exceeding the budget of $4.2 million.
The city has already spent $3.55 million to acquire and prepare the slides for installation, according to Acting City Administrator Jeff Dingman.
Director Settle should 'do something very special' and fund water slides.
Settle's support may be losing backing from other board members due to the high costs.
