Board approves purchases and sets timelines for park and court repairs
Summary
The Randolph board approved equipment purchases and reviewed contractors' timelines for park and court work: basketball standards ordered, two portable bleachers budgeted, fence bid awarded, culvert ordered, and the tennis court surfacing is expected by fair week.
Town clerk April Groll reported financials and said she ordered new basketball standards, expected around the first of August, and noted the town has about $20,000 earmarked for portable bleachers after that purchase. The board discussed acquiring two sets of five-row portable bleachers at roughly $8,000 each and logistics for transport and storage.
Brandon Miller said Courts Unlimited "did not give him a date when they would be coming to do the surfacing of the tennis courts, but they said that they would be done by fair week." The board also opened bids for the old tennis-court fence; a bid from Laurel Telford won and the board directed Kaleb Thomson to coordinate the sale. Kaleb reported he ordered a culvert and the canal company will install it, and he will remove two small dead trees in front of the courthouse.
Maintenance items included ordering signs with tennis-court rules and scheduling septic pumping at the park; Kaleb and Clay Barker agreed to pump the septic tanks next week. The board discussed whether the fence work and other installations might be eligible for tourism-grant funds or capital reserves, and agreed to coordinate vendors and timelines to ensure work coincides with scheduled events such as fair week.
No formal contract awards or final payments were recorded at this meeting beyond ordering equipment and accepting a bid for the old fence; staff were directed to manage procurement and report back to the board.
