Park board approves $150,000 for 30x100 livestock structure; stakeholders plan fairgrounds staffing meeting
Summary
The Stark County Park Board approved $150,000 from the construction fund to build a 30-by-100 livestock shelter at the county fairgrounds and scheduled a stakeholder meeting to define a new park/fairgrounds staff position and clarify roles between the county, road department and the Fair Association.
The Stark County Park Board approved $150,000 to construct a 30-by-100 livestock shelter at the county fairgrounds and set plans for a stakeholder meeting to define staffing and management of the grounds.
At the meeting, contractor Tracy (Two's Construction) presented preliminary pricing for a 30-by-100 livestock structure and options for roof and eave heights. Tracy told the board a single metal building with a screw-down roof would cost about $148,427; lowering the eave height from 12 feet to 10 feet would reduce cost by roughly $900 per building. Tracy summarized: "Changing the Eve height from 12 feet to 10 feet would save you about $900 per building because there's no sheeting."
