The Georgetown City Council on Jan. 5 authorized the purchase of four scoreboard units for the city’s baseball and softball fields, with a stated cost of $25,000 for the package and a plan to buy two scoreboards per year.
The motion to approve the purchase was made by Alder Robert Weaver and seconded by Alder Nick Krabel; the motion passed unanimously, 5–0. Resident Amber Pearson asked whether the city would contribute money toward the purchase; Mayor Darin Readnour said he would review the budget.
The decision followed a brief discussion of costs and rollout timing. No additional funding source was specified in the meeting minutes; Council indicated the expense will be handled under current-year authorizations or considered in the coming budget reviews.
