At the Nov. 18 meeting the Lynden City Council accepted a donation from the Mt. Baker Rotary Club to buy gates for dugout openings as part of anticipated Bender Fields improvements. The minutes list the donation amount as approximately $9,583.28 and note the donation will allow local clubs and schools to host tournaments with clearer separation between players and fans.
The donation was included on the consent agenda, which Councilor Gary Bode moved to approve and Councilor Kyle Strengholt seconded; the consent agenda passed by a 7-0 vote. If accepted, the city will use the donation to make the purchase "as soon as possible for immediate use," according to the minutes.
Parks staff will coordinate installation with ongoing field upgrades.
