Board weighs playground timing, storage of new slide and grants for rodeo bleachers
Summary
Board members agreed to store a new playground slide for winter, discussed safety concerns with existing bleachers at the rodeo grounds, and outlined interest in writing grants to fund signage and seating improvements.
The board discussed several community-facility topics, beginning with storage of a recently delivered playground slide. Members agreed to hold installation until spring and store the slide in the white shed or similar secure location for winter; Paul was identified as the person expected to move and store the equipment.
Separately, members discussed damaged bleachers at the rodeo grounds and recommended pursuing grants and potential used-bleacher donations to reduce costs. One member suggested writing grant applications to secure funds for both signs and bleacher repair or replacement.
The board also recorded that Tammy Lenhart (Rich County tourism) provided a contact about flashing speed signs and that the county’s economic development funds sometimes get allocated elsewhere; members expressed intent to pursue local improvements through county funding channels.
No motions or funding commitments were adopted during this discussion; the board directed staff and volunteers to explore grant opportunities and to coordinate storage and installation of the playground slide in spring.
