Organizers ask Lake Hallie for $6,000 toward pickleball courts lighting project
Summary
Organizers estimated a $650k–$850k lighting project for the pickleball complex and asked the Parks board for $6,000 spread over three years starting in 2026; the board deferred a decision until June because no formal bid was before them.
Organizers of the pickleball complex told the Parks Commission the overall lighting project could cost between $650,000 and $850,000, depending on discounts, and that organizers expect to pay roughly $65,000 of that total. They requested $6,000 from the Village Parks Board, to be paid over three years beginning in 2026.
Bill reported the figures via phone and Mike supplemented the update in person. Because no formal bid or agenda item was presented for a vote, the board moved the decision to its June meeting for further discussion and potential action. Organizers will hold an open house at the courts on June 14.
Commissioners emphasized the need for formal bids and cost breakdowns before committing municipal funds. The board will consider the request after receiving detailed proposals and confirming financing plans.
