We had the bid opening for repairs to the Gazebo and Health Department Building last Friday at 2 PM. We did not receive any bids for the Gazebo and only one for the Health Department Building from C &CConstruction of NW Florida in the amount of $39,000.00. Based on this I would like to reject this bid and re-advertise again on a more widescale area forl both projects. The amount of money wel have allocated for these jobs is $10,275 for 2. The fishing tournament held last weekend was a success, but it reflected that we need to pursue some repairs there. The lights are not sufficient at the ramp, bathroom facilities continue to stop up, and overall, more power is needed. Our recent cultural resource study is at the Corps of Engineers being evaluated and our consultant has inquired as to when it will be completed sO that we can have the entire park area designed for what we want to see located there and funding streams pursued. In the meantime, we have funds available from ouri insurance proceeds from Michael and Iwould like to request quotes on more lighting for the ramp, investigate the possibility ofi installing a grinder pump at the restrooms that will allow the sewerage to be forced fed to the line leading to the state park where the Legion Road bends and goes to the park area, and install a larger electrical panel. In the meantime, Ihave received a call from Mr. Rhett Daniels of. Jackson County, informing me that we possibly could get REA to install more lights at the ramp and have them billed to the county, a proposal Iwill follow up on. I am not sure what such an undertaking will cost, but to provide adequate service, we need to try something, while we wait on the major renovation 3. Work has begun on the Maintenance/lax Collector building and should be complete within 4. Ihave ordered two (2) batting cage nets for the Little League area and we have located two (2)p pitcher's cages that can be restrung with netting at no cost to us, using some of the old 5. Some conversations are being held today between our Consultants, IParametrics and State Revolving Loan Fund personnel, to see about combining the pivot repairs as a joint FEMA/SEF project and get the repairs started very soon, as I hope we can approve per my  Gazebo and $27,350 for the Health Department.  project.
