Council debates $25,000 community-center siding quote; asks staff for more ARPA options
Summary
Public works presented a siding and window quote for the community center (roughly $25,000). Council debated spending ARPA funds on siding versus higher-priority needs (generators, door/security work) and requested more quotes and an ARPA-expenditure update before deciding.
Public works staff presented a quote to replace community-center siding, soffit, gutters and one tempered window. The presented total for siding plus the window add-on was discussed in the meeting as roughly $25,004–$25,045 depending on breakdown.
The public-works representative urged approval but council members and staff prioritized competing needs. “The gutters are for sure,” the public-works representative said when asked which elements were necessary now. Councilmembers and the finance representative noted more urgent capital needs—generators and door/security work—may take precedence and recommended getting additional quotes and a full ARPA-expenditure update before allocating funds.
Council did not approve the siding purchase at the meeting; staff agreed to separate out gutter pricing, gather additional estimates for doors and security work, and return with a prioritized ARPA-expenditure list for a future workshop.
