Council approves Caliber Construction bid to rebuild and expand pickleball courts
Summary
Council approved staff recommendation to award the downtown pickleball courts contract to Caliber Construction LLC; staff said the project (expanding to eight post‑tensioned concrete courts with lighting and shade) is funded from wrap-tax savings and will improve worn existing courts.
Council approved an award to Caliber Construction LLC to rebuild and expand the city’s downtown pickleball courts. Staff presented a contractor ranking and bid tabulation and recommended Caliber based on score and price. The recommended contract amount in the staff packet was $575,001.87; staff emphasized the use of post-tensioned concrete and lighting to address cracking and durability problems on current courts.
Council discussed local demand—some members said courts are well used at certain times and that expansion is warranted, while others questioned whether regional developments would draw players away. Staff said funding comes from the city’s wrap-tax savings and that the design and selection aimed to deliver long-term durability.
The council voted to award the contract to Caliber Construction per the staff recommendation. Staff will finalize contract details and schedule construction.
