Parks and Recreation Director Ryan told the council the proposed Kimball Bay renovation is a multi-part project that begins with sandblasting or hydroblasting the existing pool shell and applying an epoxy coating, work similar to the City Splash project. \"That's the same project we did at City Splash this previous year,\" Ryan said, noting the sandblasting/hydroblasting work requires going to bid and will exceed $50,000 alone.

Ryan described additional items included in the overall scope: replacement of exterior vents and the chemical building siding and roof; replacement of metal shade structures with shade canopies; a backup pool motor (estimated $4,000–$5,000); replacement of the water slide (estimated about $30,000); fence repairs (estimated about $25,000); and concrete repairs. He said the total project cost cited in the packet was $235,000.

Council members pressed on the durability of the work and whether the renovation would be a short-term “band aid” or extend useful life. Ryan said some elements would extend the pool’s service life for several summers but that the city should plan a more extensive replacement within two to three years.

Ryan and Public Works Director Arnold Adams discussed timing and the bid approach. Ryan said the staff’s plan is to bid the hydroblasting/sandblasting portion separately so those critical repairs can be completed in April or May and the pool can open for the season. Adams said the parking-lot resurfacing scope includes a mix of full-depth asphalt patching and edge milling; Brewer Construction’s itemized quote includes allowance for base repair that will be confirmed once milling begins. The council approved resurfacing the Kimball Park north-side pool parking lot for $242,639.06 and expected work in April or May.

Council member questions included expected annual attendance (Ryan recalled roughly 10,000 visitors across both pools in a season), whether swim lessons are held at Kimball (Ryan confirmed yes), and whether the kiddie pool repairs were included (not part of the current bid but staff said they will investigate).

Ending: Council approved the bid specifications and directed staff to advertise and return with awarded contracts; staff will aim to complete work in time for the summer swim season.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Yukon Oklahoma - City Council Meeting 02-04-2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Yukon City Council approved bid specifications to renovate Kimball Bay pool and authorized resurfacing of the adjacent parking lot, with staff set to advertise bids so critical repairs can be completed in time for the summer season.","taxTitle","Yukon, Canadian County, Oklahoma","taxId",68863,"location","Oklahoma","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6352803,"Yukon fire department wins grant for three-story training tower; council to accept grant and vendor bid Feb. 18",50,661000,711000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2222754-336567d1ba7c3de0f67db27d1ed197c8&start=661&end=711","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2222754-336567d1ba7c3de0f67db27d1ed197c8/thumbnail_661000.jpg","/articles/6352803/Oklahoma/Yukon-fire-department-wins-grant-for-three-story-training-tower-council-to-accept-grant-and-vendor-bid-Feb-18","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6352803-fade93671c474bfe0b158d4c48493a15/orig.mp4?Expires=1771111795&Signature=PpefRu8uQmgoV4tus8MwFjqBI3yTNOyngWAPuIfJtprYV9u45j8xnEhUmZjOQmQ8esFubk0SrXo2FNPsYrxBe2G6OtIdhR2GFC6mEZPsMh7wWUw4~CM39AbM-PvSqQO7NBYFvFcIKCbvNrmmXjW6SKeH~lp8JQ9W6TR1HqCEYuarCnENm3MuhNMFF~8-L0fMCn~GrPp6mk1nAE0YC8yu5PEdtOj7tjSqEk87G7TNTzddxRCqfe79D8qcUPP-vBee5Lbagr1pmVHEblntkJGUYxbJRYmSBqcH2EW1vGoLuC9yb2DpltzffM5l9C9tcXfMd7rql~8jze1Ds8HJggjnlQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Yukon Fire Department has received an Oklahoma Office of Emergency Management grant to help fund a three-story training tower, Fire Chief Sean Voigt told the City Council on February 2025.

\"On Monday, February 3, we received notice from OEM that we received the training tower grant,\" Voigt said. He told the council the tower was included in the capital budget and that the OEM grant reduces the city's expected capital outlay.

Voigt said the city budgeted $443,000 for the tower in its capital plan and that the department’s grant award totals $542,000. He said the department issued a request for proposals, hosted a pre-bid meeting and received at least one bid that meets specifications. Voigt said he will bring the OEM grant acceptance, the training-tower bid and a contract with the approved vendor to the council meeting on Feb. 18 for approval so the city can begin work.

The tower design is three stories and will support high-angle and multi-story victim-rescue training, rappelling drills and other live-fire and rescue exercises that the department currently simulates indoors. Voigt said the department is also discussing site concrete improvements to allow fire apparatus to operate around the tower for more realistic training.

Council members asked about optional add-ons and about the amount of capital funding available. Voigt said the grant and the capital line allow for some add-ons such as concrete pads to position trucks around the tower, but that some options in vendor discussions would have doubled the originally budgeted cost. He said the OEM grant substantially reduces the city’s out-of-pocket expense compared with the capital allocation as originally written.

Ending: Voigt said he expects to present the finalized grant acceptance and vendor contract for council approval at the Feb. 18 meeting so work can begin promptly.","Fire Chief Sean Voigt told the council the department received an OEM grant that, combined with capital funds, will substantially reduce the city's outlay for a planned three-story training tower.
