Little League leader asks Logan County Fiscal Court for $899 to repair press box and portable HVAC
Summary
A Russellville Little League representative asked the Logan County Fiscal Court during public comment for roughly $899 to buy a sound system for the press box and additional funds for a portable heating/cooling unit while the press box interior is repaired.
Greg Meade, who identified himself as a representative for youth baseball in Russellville, asked the Logan County Fiscal Court on Jan. 9 for county assistance to replace a sound system in a worn press box and for help acquiring a portable heating and cooling unit.
Meade told the court the press box has rot and leaks and that the city has approved $751.00 (transcript: “$75100” — court clarified as $751) toward interior repairs. He said a sound system for the press box would cost about $1,000 but that he found a unit priced at about $899 and asked the court to consider covering that cost. Meade also said he may later request funds for a portable HVAC unit and that improving lighting and adding more fields would allow the county to expand youth sports programs.
“It's about $1,000. Probably also maybe need a help on maybe a portable air conditioner heater to put in there,” Meade said during public comment.
Court members thanked Meade for his work with youth sports and discussed logistics. A commissioner suggested contacting the city’s recreation supervisor, and the court indicated it would review the request. Treasurer Amanda told Meade the court would “take a look at it and probably have an answer by next meeting.”
No formal grant or appropriation was authorized at the meeting.
