Grottoes receives $105,000 Rockingham County grant to pave ballfields parking lot
Summary
Town staff announced the receipt of a $105,000 grant from Rockingham County to pave the ballfields parking lot; work is planned after Little League season with lighting and striping to follow.
Town staff told the Grottoes Town Council on March 9 that the town has received a $105,000 grant from Rockingham County to repave the parking lot at the ballfields.
Kyle, a town staff member, said the funds will be used to pave the lot and that the town plans to wait until Little League completes its season before scheduling work, with paving planned for June. He said the project will also include installing lights and striping to improve safety and usability. "So, we'll put it out online and accept bids... and plan to pave it in June," Kyle said.
Council members thanked the county for the grant; no formal vote to accept the grant was recorded in the meeting transcript, and staff described the timeline and steps for procurement and installation.
Practical details: staff indicated the town will solicit bids and install lights as a turnkey package; the transcript does not include a procurement schedule or contract value beyond the $105,000 grant amount.
Next steps noted in the meeting: coordinate with Little League on timing, solicit bids and schedule paving and striping in June.
