Summary
Council authorized bids for a proposed shelter at Bison Pennehill Park and directed staff to modify construction documents to incorporate transformer location and electrical specifications after members flagged potential conflicts with an on-site transformer and access; the motion to instruct staff passed on voice vote.
Council reviewed schematic plans for a shelter at Bison Pennehill Park and moved to authorize bidding with the intention to open bids on the 24th.
