(KMZA)--Improvements are planned at the Jaycee ball field in Seneca.
The Seneca City Council, during their February 2 regular meeting, approved a bid from AmeriFence Corporation for the installation of a new six foot tall fence and a new backstop for a total cost of $47,610. It was among two bids received.
The fence at the ballfield was destroyed in December's wind storm. Insurance proceeds will cover nearly $14,000 of the cost.
The Council also approved a bid from Beacon Athletics for new bleachers in the amount of $15,616. It was among two bids received. The bleachers will be set on a concrete pad.
City Administrator Tami Haverkamp said the dugouts will also be getting a concrete surface and shade canopies will be added.
In other action, the Council approved an agreement with Wilson and Company for final design and bidding services for a project to rebuild the distribution system in the alley south of Main Street from 3rd to 11th Streets.
The Salina-based engineering firm will provide the services for a total cost of $37,900, with the final bid documents to be provided to the city within 190 days.
