Sports court project delayed; $4,000 additional survey required, board told
Summary
Shrewsbury Parks Board heard an MSD response that the Sports Court project needs an additional $4,000 survey and clarity on permit jurisdiction; staff expect materials for review Sept. 15 and a bid opening in late October, with work targeted to start next spring.
The Shrewsbury Parks Board reviewed an update on the Sports Court and Municipal Separate District (MSD) project, including a new $4,000 survey requirement and questions about permitting jurisdiction.
Board members said MSD provided a response indicating an additional $4,000 survey is needed before the city can proceed. The board discussed whether permits should be obtained from the county or from the City of Shrewsbury and expected further information for review by Sept. 15. A bid opening was described as anticipated in late October, and the project start date was moved to next spring with a goal of completion before summer 2026.
Board members also raised whether the city should post regular project updates on the municipal website so residents can follow permitting and bidding progress.
No formal motion or vote was recorded on the Sports Court item during the Aug. 27 meeting; board members instructed staff to continue coordination and return materials for review on the stated timeline.
