Board approves seeking options for splash pad upgrades after health-board inspection
Summary
After a Board of Health review, officials authorized staff to pursue options and to spend up to $45,000 for splash pad upgrades; a base UV sanitation estimate was cited at about $30,000 and the board approved the motion by voice vote.
Danville Town authorized staff to seek options and to spend up to $45,000 to upgrade the town’s splash pad after a Board of Health inspection.
Speaker 2 said the health review recommended bringing splash-pad systems up to modern code. Staff received a base ultraviolet sanitation estimate of about $30,000 to meet the higher standard and requested authority to explore options and, if needed, spend no more than $45,000 to complete the upgrade. Speaker 2 said the pool remains unaffected and that the request concerns the splash pad only.
During discussion Speaker 2 described the UV component as the “base price” and said a new controller was required; the transcript lists the controller cost as “$8,” but the figure and units were not specified in the discussion.
The board moved and seconded the request and approved it by voice vote with no opposition recorded. Speaker 2 said staff will pursue vendors and aim to complete any required work quickly if the health board does not allow existing operation to continue.
Next steps: staff will meet with vendors, confirm exact equipment and controller pricing and return to the council or board if the final cost or scope requires formal appropriation.
