Summary

District staff reported suspected leaking toilets at the Mist site and plans to solicit bids for repairs or replacement; porta-potties will be provided temporarily. Board members also raised vandalism to snack-shack counters and requested repairs and field maintenance.

The maintenance report identified a suspected leak in restroom systems at the Mist facility; district staff said they will solicit bids to repair internal components or replace affected toilets and urinals. The county reported no groundwater table issue, so staff expect repairs will focus on toilets rather than groundwater remediation. Porta-potties will be brought in temporarily while repairs are scheduled.

Board members also described vandalism to the snack-shack urethane countertops—multiple deep scratches across a counter on the baseball side requiring sanding and re-urethane—and asked maintenance to obtain cost estimates. The board discussed equity in maintaining athletic fields, noting the football field is consistently green while baseball/softball fields have weeds and need additional watering and fertilizer.
