Council awards $33,505 bid for tennis resurfacing and pickleball courts; approves seeking bids for boom lift
Summary
Saint Albans City Council approved a $33,505 bid for resurfacing tennis courts and constructing pickleball courts and authorized staff to seek bids for a boom lift for the parks department.
Mike requested the council award a bid to a local striping contractor for $33,505 to resurface the city's tennis courts and construct pickleball courts; the council approved the award by voice vote. The contract is to be paid from line item 441-459.
When asked about timing, a staff member said the contractor would start this week if the council approved the award. Council members identified the contractor as a local firm (referred to in the meeting as "Stripey County") and noted the company has done parking-lot striping and other municipal work in the past.
Separately, the council approved a motion to seek bids for a steel boom lift for the parks department. A council member said acquiring a boom lift "is gonna save us money first year," and the council authorized staff to solicit bids. Both motions passed by voice vote; the meeting record did not include a roll-call vote or numeric tally.
Council members did not provide a detailed project schedule or completion date in the meeting record beyond the contractor's comment about starting this week if contracts are finalized.
