Council hears plan for six-month Robot Zoo exhibit at Smyrna Outdoor Adventure Center
Summary
Staff proposed a six-month Robot Zoo rental for the Smyrna Outdoor Adventure Center (2,500 sq ft) to reduce turnover and freight costs and to serve field trips and summer camps from January through September.
Staff asked the council to authorize the mayor to execute terms for a six-month Robot Zoo exhibit rental at the Smyrna Outdoor Adventure Center. Mike (speaker 11) said the group requested a six-month term instead of the usual three months so the exhibit can run from January through September, which would reduce the frequency of take-down and reinstallation and lower freight costs.
Mike said they would pursue a 2,500-square-foot version that is appropriate for field trips and families and that the larger term helps cover both the school year and the summer-camp season. He told council there are cost savings from avoiding frequent freight and downtime during peak visitation months. The proposal was presented for council consideration in the consent agenda; no formal action was recorded in the workshop.
