MUSEUM/SENIOR CENTER
Museum Lighting Upgrade - Request approval to proceed
Dir. Kilsdonk explained the lighting system in the museum has not been upgraded since
1997. A lighting study was conducted in 2005 and several low cost steps were
recommended to improve the lighting. Staff recommends using the two lowest bidders,
Lloyd Tackman Inc. for valance construction, and Village Maintenance for painting the
beams and panels. The amount paid by the Town would be $5650, with $2562 coming
from the Museum’s 2006 exhibit improvement budget and $3088 underwritten by the
Friends of the Museum. The Committee recommends approval of the expenditure in
the amount of $5650 for the Museum lighting upgrade.
O’Connor Picnic Shelter - Request approval to purchase picnic tables
Dir. Kilsdonk explained the picnic tables requested are higher quality resulting in a higher
cost. Staff recommends purchasing 14 picnic tables from Recreation Plus for $13,220.
Town Administrator Repola recommended making a spec and taking this type of table out
to bid. The Committee recommends gathering additional bids for this type of table.
