Title

A Resolution Approving the Aaronville Park Lighting Improvement Capital Project.

 

Summary

Parks and Recreation is requesting council approval to allocate funds for lighting improvements at Aaronville Park as well as approving a new electric meter service from Riviera Utilities for these lights.  This project consists of adding new Musco LED sports lighting to the baseball field and 2 basketball courts, which are not currently lit.  We plan to purchase the lights through Musco Sports Lighting using Sourcewell Contract #041123.  The average estimated monthly fee for the new electric meter for these lights is expected to be around $150.  We are requesting permission to bid the installation of the lights and any other components needed to complete this project.  The total amount planned for this project is $440,000.
