The city will renegotiate its agreement with the Water Works Parks Foundation under a proposal that goes before the City Council today. The foundation has paid $1.4 million but doesn’t currently have sufficient funds to cover the rest. The city proposes using a federal grant to forgive $540,000 of the tab.
