The Town Council voted to authorize a contract with American Ramp Company for the design and construction of a skate park at Fairview Park for an amount not to exceed $440,000.
Councilmember Miss Smith pulled the item from the omnibus to highlight that outreach events had been "quite well attended" and that consultants and Parks Department staff had received sustained input from engaged residents. "I applaud the town for working so hard to get public input on this," she said in support of the project. Council then approved the contract by roll call.
The approved authorization delegates contracting to staff within the not-to-exceed limit; council did not amend the dollar cap during discussion.
