CITY MANAGER REPORT ON BLEACHER COVERING AND SOFTBALL FIELD LIGHTS. The City Manager made an oral report. Unit A, as shown on the plans, was originally estmated at $10,500 for common lumber. For $10,800 the City could get ship -lap siding. Units A and B complete would cost $14,500 with common lumber and with ship -lap $144900. Councilman Jones raised the question of how much money the City received from the sale of Hawes Park. $34000 less the price of the Ketch-Hetchy property or approximately $29,000 was the amount received. The lighting will cost approximately $7,099 for material only. Estimate for installation was $2,500 or a total cost of lighting $9,600. Plans and specifications will have to be made, more than likely by an 04 outside firm. Now To sumorize his report the City Manager stated that the lights would cost about $100000 and $159000 for the construction of the bleachers. Councilman Royer stated that the Council originally thought the cost of the lighting would cost $15,000. By compromising on the bleachers and.taking the $10,800 figure and $10,000 for the lights the work can be done for the amount originally figured or $209000. Unit A will form the wind break.
