Summary

The board approved issuing an RFP for substantial rot repair at the Center for All Seasons kitchen wall and also authorized a $6,600 temporary through‑flow decking/stair system and handrails at Long Pond Beach to address failing granite steps and safety hazards ahead of the recreational season.

The board moved to issue an RFP for structural repair of an exterior kitchen wall at the Center for All Seasons after contractors and an engineer identified significant rot and possible interior mildew/mold concerns. Staff said the request will require contractors to inspect the site and possibly perform testing to determine the extent of rot; the board set a proposal due date of June 11, 2026.

Separately, the board reviewed a proposal to address unsafe granite stairs at Long Pond Beach. A temporary through-flow decking system (approved by Seven Lakes Alliance for erosion control) that overlays the existing granite steps and provides three handrails was presented as a near-term safety fix at $6,600; the board approved purchasing the system from the recreation reserve account to avoid closing the beach for the season.

Next steps: issue the RFP with a June 11 deadline; facilities staff will coordinate site visits and testing requirements for the center wall; the recreation department will schedule installation of the stair system and follow up with erosion grant planning with Seven Lakes Alliance for longer-term shoreline work.
