Council OKs donation and installation of $44,000 metal covers at Burton ball fields
Summary
Friends & Neighbors will purchase and Burton Home Builders will install metal coverings for ball-field seating at a total cost of $44,000; the city approved the improvements at no cost to taxpayers and required council approval because the improvements are on city property.
The council approved a proposal allowing Friends & Neighbors to purchase and install metal coverings over seating areas at the city ball fields. The packet specifies the coverings would be purchased from DDM and installed by Burton Home Builders at a cost of $44,000 and at no cost to the city.
Mayor Karen Buck told council the prior agreement with Friends & Neighbors required council approval for improvements to city property. Councilmember Tommie Gilmon moved to approve and Councilmember Jeff Eckhardt seconded; the motion passed with no recorded opposition.
The minutes do not include specifications beyond the purchaser and installer names, nor a timeline for installation. The action was recorded as approved, with no city funds allocated to the project.
