The Culver Town Council members will open bids for the Cavalier Park project tonight.
This project includes improvements to the soccer fields on the grounds of the Culver Community School Corporation, expanding the parking lots, moving the stormwater retention pond to the east, building a restroom facility near the fields, adding a toddler park, and a walking trail on the perimeter of the park.
Culver Town Manager Jonathan Leist said previously that the walking trail may be bid as an alternate project to help bring down the overall cost of the project. The playground equipment at the Culver Town Park, entry sign for the Cavalier Park, and the amount of grading and reseeding on the upgraded soccer fields may also be bid as alternate projects.
The grant funding from the Office of Community and Rural Affairs is about $500,000 for this project.
The council members will also hold a public hearing tonight on traffic and parking changes with the first reading of the ordinance following the hearing. A Stellar plan funding request is expected tonight along with the first reading of an ordinance that creates a local road and bridge matching grant fund.
Tonight’s Culver Town Council meeting begins at 6:30 p.m. ET at the Culver Town Hall at 200 E. Washington Street.
