Summary

Council members agreed at the June 17 meeting to install a 5-foot powder-black aluminum fence with a utility gate around the remaining building rather than spending an estimated $75,000 to fill the site; the fence was estimated to cost about $10,000.

Administrator Tyler Rench presented two options for securing the remaining building area: a 5-foot powder-black aluminum fence with a utility gate at an estimated cost of about $10,000, or filling the remaining footprint at an estimated cost of roughly $75,000. Rench said a chain-link fence would not provide substantial cost savings and that the powder-coated aluminum option would be an attractive addition to the community.

After discussion, the council agreed to proceed with the powder-black aluminum fence. No formal roll-call vote was recorded in the transcript for this decision; the record states the council "agrees to proceed" following discussion. The council did not specify procurement steps or a construction timetable at the meeting.
