Commission approves $1.7 million contract on Land Bank property for pickleball expansion; contract between NRSA and Fullgates
Summary
Commission approved entering into a procurement-based contract (NRSA with Fullgates and subcontractors) for a $1,700,000 expansion of pickleball/paddle courts on Land Bank property; the Land Bank is not the signatory but approved use of its property.
The Nantucket Land Bank Commission voted to approve a $1,700,000 expansion contract for pickleball/paddle courts that will be executed between the Nantucket Recreation and Sports Association (NRSA) and the contractor Fullgates, with subcontractors on the island.
Why it matters: the work will be installed on Land Bank property and requires the commission’s approval because the land is owned by the Land Bank even though NRSA is the contracting party.
A staff member summarized the procurement and clarified that the Land Bank is not the signatory; the NRSA will sign the agreement with Fullgates. The staff member said the vendor selection was completed through a procurement process and that subcontractors would include local firms. Commissioner John moved and the motion passed: John, Mark, Alan, and Commissioner Christina voted aye.
The approval allows NRSA and Fullgates to proceed with the expansion on Land Bank property under the terms reviewed by staff; the Land Bank did not commit direct construction funds during the vote.
What’s next: staff will coordinate execution and ensure the work complies with Land Bank requirements and any applicable permits.
