ISSUE
The second phase of improvements is currently under construction at the Flint Hills Athletic Complex. As
you may recall, the improvements are to include four new green fields, sun shelter, trails, parking lot,
access driveway, and landscaping.
City staff have been working to get donations to help reduce the cost of the project.
As with the first phase of the project, Dakota Aggregates has again offered to donate several of the
materials necessary to complete the second phase of the project. Dakota Aggregates has offered to donate
12,312 tons of select granular borrow, 5,985 tons of class five, 612 tons of pea rock and 7,578 tons of
processed sand. The estimated value of the materials being donated is approximately $99,284. That
number does not include the mark up that we would typically see from a contractor. The City sincerely
appreciates this generous donation from Dakota Aggregates.
