Council approves Premium Surface Solutions bid for pickleball courts contingent on grants
Summary
Huntington’s council approved a comprehensive bid (approximately $125,000) from Premium Surface Solutions for new pickleball courts, contingent on obtaining grant funding; staff will pursue grants and proceed if funding is secured.
Council voted to approve a bid from Premium Surface Solutions to build new pickleball courts and related site work, with the caveat that the approval is contingent on securing external grant funding. Staff presented a range of options: a post-tension 60x60 pad priced at about $68,000, flat-work for the full 74x70 area near $50,004.10, and additional surface, fencing and lighting options that could raise project costs into the $80,000–$90,000 range; with added items the total project approaches the $125,000 figure cited by a council member.
The staff presenter (S4) described the high-end option and the alternatives: "that post tension part would be 68,000 if we opted for that." Council members argued for the higher-quality option if funds allow; after a motion to approve the Premium Surface Solutions bid contingent on grant awards, the council voted to proceed. Staff was directed to use the accepted bid to pursue grants and to return with funding updates.
