Board tables irrigation upgrade, requests more funding and timeline detail
Summary
The board voted to table the Irra-gators irrigation system bid for baseball and softball fields, asking staff for more information on funding, usage, furnishings, and timeline.
The board voted May 6 to table a bid from Irra-gators to update the baseball and softball field irrigation systems pending additional information.
Ben Mrdutt moved to table the irrigation bid; Shanna Krueger seconded and the board voted unanimously to table the item. During the work session staff outlined that the current irrigation system dates from 1986–88, that parts are obsolete, and that a modern system would reduce manual labor, water use, and energy consumption but requires capital funding and schedule details.
Board members requested more information on funding sources, expected usage patterns, furnishings associated with the system, and a project timeline before reconsidering the proposal.
