Explanation
Background: This ordinance authorizes the Director of the Recreation and Parks Department to enter into contract with Proline Electric, Inc. for the 2021 CDBG Sports Court Lighting Project. The contract amount is $421,460.00, with a contingency of $40,000.00, for a total of $461,460.00 being authorized for this project by this ordinance.
The funding from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program has made the 2021 CDBG Sports Court Lighting Project possible. This project seeks to enhance programming opportunities and meet the needs of the community by providing lighting on sports courts at two locations. Scioto Southlands Park will receive lighting on tennis and basketball courts. Marion Franklin Park will receive lighting on tennis and pickleball courts. We have had many requests from the public for improved lighting at these locations. The installation of new LED sports court lighting will improve safety and visibility in the area when in operation. The project is anticipated to start in the Summer of 2021 and be completed in November of 2021.
