Council accepts low bid of $317,000 for pickleball and tennis courts project
Summary
Council approved Resolution F496 to accept the base bid from Northwest Turf Solutions for $317,000 for the pickleball and tennis court project; two bid alternates for restoration and all-weather surfacing are likely deferred for budget reasons.
The Cheney City Council voted to approve the base bid for a combined pickleball and tennis court project, accepting Northwest Turf Solutions' low base bid of $317,000.
Staff said six bids were received and the bottom four were within $10,000, supporting the reliability of the low bid. The project included two potential alternative bid items to restore an existing tennis court and add all-weather surfacing for pickleball; due to budget constraints staff recommended pursuing the base bid only and seeking cost reductions through value engineering. "We feel pretty confident about the bid, and I'm happy to answer any questions," the project presenter said. Council members discussed potential reallocation of a supplemental budget request (including $30,000 for a shelter and $7,500 for xeriscaping) to create contingency funding for the parks project. The council approved Resolution F496 by voice vote.
