Orderville board approves Sunrise Engineering to design park dirt-work plans
Loading...
Summary
The Orderville Town Board voted to hire Sunrise Engineering to prepare engineered plans for dirt work at the new park to address drainage, settling and to evaluate whether a ball field can fit on the site.
The Orderville Town Board on Monday approved hiring Sunrise Engineering to produce engineered dirt‑work plans for the town's new park project, voting 3–0 in a special meeting.
The board said the plans are needed to prevent soil settlement, ensure proper drainage to avoid flooding downstream and to determine whether regrading could fit a ball field on the available property. Speaker 2, who moved the motion, said Sunrise has staff who will conduct a site visit and that a small group of town committee members should attend to improve communication and alignment. Speaker 4 seconded the motion. Speaker 1 announced, "Motion carries 3 to 0."
Board members emphasized that the engineered plans will address utilities and compaction so the fields and adjacent properties are protected. Speaker 2 asked that staff and committee members (Courtney and Brianna were named as participants) attend the on-site review so questions about water pressure, utilities and the layout can be resolved before work begins. The board did not specify a contract value for the engineering work during the meeting.
Next steps: staff will coordinate a walkthrough with Sunrise Engineering and notify the board when the site visit is scheduled.
