The City Council approved solicitation of bids for the Frasier Field Improvements Project at Tuesday's meeting, the mayor said.
The project is estimated to cost $660,000 and is funded by Measure P and the Community Development Block Grant, the mayor said. Planned upgrades include new batting cages, an ADA-accessible walkway, improved dugouts, new scoreboards and a picnic area near the snack bar. Completion is expected in the fall.
The council's action authorizes staff to begin the procurement process to hire contractors; the transcript does not provide a motion text, mover, seconder or vote tally. The mayor presented the item during a mayoral recap and invited residents to follow the city website for registration and project updates.
The upgrades are described by city staff as safety, accessibility and experience improvements for players, families and the community. The transcript records the project scope and funding sources but does not specify the procurement timeline beyond the expected completion season.
