Summary

The council agreed to abort a $562,013.75 contract for Project 2607 (Janssen Park ADA hard-court/pickleball improvements); staff said a significant portion of the project is grant-funded and construction was expected this summer with play by early August if proceeded.

The Greenfield Common Council voted March 17 to abort a contract for Project 2607 — ADA hard-court improvements for the pickleball courts at Janssen Park — citing project funding and contractual considerations.

The contract amount on the agenda was $562,013.75. Staff said a significant portion of the cost is covered by grants (staff referenced approximately $430,000 toward the parking lot and design/inspection work and noted additional CDGB funds). Council members asked about timing; staff said, contingent on approvals, construction was expected to start soon and the aim was to have courts available by early August.

After discussion about grant funding and schedule, a member moved to approve aborting the contract and the council adopted the motion by roll call. Council also directed staff to advance procurement or contracting steps as appropriate once the path forward is clarified.
