Waterville accepts bid for Lions Park pickleball courts; funds raised exceed bid
Summary
The Waterville City Council unanimously accepted a bid from Steve James Excavating to build Lions Park pickleball courts under Resolution 2025R-017 and noted the bid was less than funds raised, suggesting excess be placed in a maintenance fund.
The Waterville City Council on July 1 adopted Resolution 2025R-017 to accept the bid from Steve James Excavating of Owatonna to construct pickleball courts at Lions Park. The motion carried 5-0.
Councilmember Dave Wollin and others noted that the accepted bid came in below the amount raised by community efforts, and suggested that the excess contributions be placed into a maintenance fund for the courts. Councilmembers credited Val Vail and the Lions Club for fundraising that funded construction.
The resolution awards the contract to the low bidder and directs staff to proceed with project implementation consistent with the scope described in the bid documents.
