# Ray Park clubhouse rebuild could miss a second deadline, pushing the reopening toward November

## What happened
Parks Department staff told the board that the contractor rebuilding the Ray Park golf course clubhouse is expected to ask the city's Board of Public Works for a second deadline extension — from the current September 1 completion date to November 10 — because that board, not the Parks board, decides whether the delay is warranted.

## The outcome
No vote was taken; this was a staff update. The extension to November 10 had not been formally requested or approved as of this meeting — staff said they expected the paperwork within the next week, "but we'll see."
