Council authorizes contracts for restroom pavilion at Greenway Soccer Park
Summary
The council approved contracts with Scholl Engineering for design and Romtek (Romtech/Romtek spelled in transcript) for purchasing a restroom pavilion at Greenway Soccer Park; both items moved from committee with 5–0 recommendations and were approved by the council.
The Homewood City Council authorized the city manager to sign a contract with Scholl Engineering for engineering design and to execute a purchase agreement with Romtek for a restroom-pavilion facility at Greenway Soccer Park. The Public Works/Facilities committee reported both items with 5–0 recommendations, and the council approved them by voice vote; they appear on the agenda as Resolution 25-71 (engineering) and Resolution 25-72 (purchase of the restroom pavilion).
Councilors and staff described the purchase as a two-part procurement: an engineering/design contract and the procurement of a prefabricated restroom pavilion. The council noted both items were recommended unanimously by committee and that the approvals would allow staff to move forward with design and acquisition.
Why it matters: The project adds permanent restroom facilities at a city athletic park, improving amenities for park users and supporting organized sports and community events. The ordinance and resolution approvals do not state funding splits in the meeting record; the council recorded committee recommendations and voted to approve the two actions.
Implementation: Staff indicated the two actions are separate resolutions (engineering design and purchase) and will proceed as distinct contracts; the council instructed the city manager to execute the contracts as authorized by the resolutions.
