Cuba City approves $21,800 change order for ADA access at pickleball courts
Summary
The Board of Aldermen approved a $21,800 change order with Bill Tech Construction to install a reinforced concrete pad between two pickleball courts and create ADA-compliant parking access, funded in part by a Shodak Foundation pledge of up to $37,000.
A staff member told the Board of Aldermen of Cuba City that the city had requested a quote from Bill Tech Construction to add a reinforced concrete pad and ADA-compliant parking at the new pickleball courts; the board voted to approve the change order.
"So this $21,000 $21,800 change order includes both," the staff member said, describing a 4-inch reinforced slab between the two courts and 5-inch concrete paving for parking that would meet the 2% cross-slope requirement for ADA parking. The staff member said the work also includes strip footings sized to support a future shade pavilion.
Council members noted the Shodak Foundation has approved funding "for both the concrete and the pavilion up to . . . $37,000," according to the chair. City staff said the concrete slab and drainage work already installed will prevent standing water and that the street department will complete final grading and any necessary concrete removal.
The change order was presented as an addition to the existing construction contract; the board approved the motion by voice vote.
The staff member said the city is still identifying a vendor for the pavilion so footings are being sized now, and that construction of the concrete work should not delay the courts' opening. The board packet included three bids for related equipment and materials; members discussed differences in price, stock availability and warranty terms but took no separate action on those bids during this meeting.
The board did not provide a breakdown in the meeting record of how much of the pledged Shodak Foundation funding will be applied specifically to the concrete versus the pavilion.
