Updating with private funds and grands only. No tax money from any fund that is already set aside for other projects. Make sure there is enough money left from the grand money and private funds to keep the square maintained. Do not ask for tax money later on for the square. The tax payers have paid TWICE to build and rebuild this area of Springfield and neither time has proven it to be a place the majority of citizens will use. Needed projects are like streets cost keep going up and that is a HAVE TO DO thing. A new square is not a priority. It is time for priority spending only with taxpayers money.
