DEPARTMENT:
Jim Couillard, PLA, ASLA, Director
Parks & Recreation
DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
The Parks & Recreation Department is requesting to fund the rental of temporary sports lighting units at the Belleview Sportsplex baseball fields. This need arises due to the ongoing project to replace the electrical infrastructure and sports field lighting at the facility. During this construction period, power to the baseball quad must remain disconnected to allow for safe completion of the work in compliance with all electrical codes and permitting requirements. The temporary lighting will ensure continued operation of youth and community baseball programming during the project. Without these rentals, evening practices and games would need to be suspended, resulting in significant disruption to league schedules and community use of the park. The department will utilize solar-powered light towers to maintain safety and illumination standards while minimizing sound and environmental impacts.
