The Lehi City Council meeting held on July 23, 2024, focused on several key resolutions, including the approval of a temporary ice rink and concrete services, as well as the construction of new pickleball courts.
The meeting began with the approval of the consent agenda, which included the city council minutes, purchase orders, and surplus items. The council unanimously passed this agenda without any questions.
A significant discussion centered on Resolution 2024-41, which approved an agreement with Ice America for the construction of a temporary ice rink. This year, the rink will be larger, measuring half the size of a hockey rink, and will include an additional chiller to enhance its operation. Council members expressed excitement about the improvements based on lessons learned from the previous year.
The council then moved on to Resolution 2024-42, which approved a two-year agreement with Quicksilver Concrete for concrete removal and replacement services. The contract was awarded following a competitive bidding process, with the city’s concrete budget set at $7.50 per square foot. The services will primarily focus on sidewalk repairs and the removal of trip hazards.
Lastly, the council considered Resolution 2024-43, which approved an agreement for the construction of pickleball courts at Shadow Ridge Park. The project was awarded to a company known for its quality work, and the courts will feature a post-tension design, which is typically more expensive but was competitively priced in this instance.
Overall, the meeting highlighted the city’s commitment to enhancing recreational facilities and maintaining infrastructure, with all resolutions passing unanimously. The council looks forward to the upcoming projects and their positive impact on the community.
