Committee hears $4.8M–$4.9M pool cost estimate and residents' graves concerns near Gibson Town
Summary
Staff reported the proposed municipal pool's project cost is roughly $4.8–$4.9 million and said bids will go out in January; a member relayed residents' concerns that graves may extend beyond a fenced area near Gibson Town and asked staff to consider ground-penetrating radar.
Staff updated the committee on the municipal pool project, saying the current, non-final project estimate is about $4.8–$4.9 million and that staff hopes to put the design out to bid in January. "It looks like it's 4,800,000, almost 4,900,000," a committee member summarized during the capital spreadsheet review; staff said they will reconcile page-by-page budget worksheets with Alyssa before finalizing the capital plan.
Separately, a committee member raised concerns from Gibson Town residents that graves extend beyond the cemetery fence line onto adjacent parcels. The member asked whether the town has funds to perform ground-penetrating radar (GPR) to check edges; staff noted one potter's-field spot GPR cost roughly $4,000–$5,000 and that $20,000 is currently budgeted for GPR work, and agreed to follow up with James to confirm whether the parcels in question fall within town boundaries.
