City officials Wednesday gave their approval to long-sought improvements at Memorial Park and the Civic Center.
Bids were approved for a new restroom and concession shelter at the park and for updated lighting and a new restroom at the Civic Center.
Shawano Common Council President Woody Davis said the Civic Center improvements were long overdue.
The new facility at the park was one of the most requested items on a Park and Recreation survey conducted last year.
The council approved a bid from A&M Concrete & Construction, of Seymour, for the demolition of the Memorial Park concession stand and restroom facility and construction of a new concession/restroom/shelter facility in the amount of $172,980.
Though it was the lowest of four bids, it came in above the $150,000 budgeted.
A $15,995 bid from Wallace Carpentry, of Bonduel, for the construction of a new restroom in the lower level of the Civic Center was also approved, though it, too, was slightly above the $13,500 budgeted.
The overbudgeted amounts for those projects will be reallocated from elsewhere in the city’s Capital Improvement budget.
A $5,214 bid from Kallies Electric Inc, of Shawano, for updated lighting in portions of the lower level of the Civic Center was also approved. That bid came in under the $7,000 budgeted.
