Council approves Sierra Controls maintenance contract and LED lighting upgrade for recreation courts

The council approved two operational items intended to maintain city infrastructure and improve recreational facilities. The council authorized an annual preventative maintenance contract with Sierra Controls valued at $23,010.10 for the city's water and wastewater systems — roughly a $2,000 increase from the prior year — to secure scheduled preventive work and emergency-call rates.

Separately, the council approved a $20,002.14 quote from ThunderElectric LLC to install LED lights with a timer at the tennis and pickleball courts; City staff said funding will be subject to Lyon County park funds availability and reimbursement if the county approves the request. Councilmembers expressed support for improvements to the heavily used courts and for locking in service rates for critical water infrastructure work.
