Board posts tourism-grant bids for cement/roof work; discusses pavilion rentals and car-show proposals
Summary
Officials said they posted bids tied to a tourism grant for cement and roofing work and discussed renting the pavilion and promoting the facility for events such as car shows, with a deadline to complete work before winter.
The board said it published bid requests for cement and roof work under a tourism-grant project and emphasized completing structural work before winter.
A member said the town had circulated the bid and outreach around town and online and that no bids had been received yet. Board members suggested contacting local contractors, including Hunter Brothers and Mike Croft, to solicit proposals. The board agreed that any work on roofs or concrete must be scheduled and completed before winter weather could cause delays.
Separately, members discussed using the concession/pavilion area as a revenue source by renting the space for car shows, food vendors or community events. "It could be used for other things," one board member said, pointing to the kitchen, overhang and shade as assets that could support food service and staffed events. The board discussed drafting a rental policy, reserving space for events, and appointing a manager or contact person to handle bookings. No fees or formal rental prices were adopted at the meeting; members asked staff to draft suggested rental terms and price points for a future meeting.
