Summary

Board members heard that the course has recurring irrigation leaks at multiple holes, staff have installed a new PLC panel and pump but need an irrigation contractor to assess persistent leaks; the bridge on Hole 5 is mobilizing.

During the Sandusky Recreation Board meeting, staff reported ongoing irrigation problems at the municipal golf course and gave a short project status update.

A parks staff member who handles golf operations said the cart path is in and being used, but crews have faced recurring irrigation leaks this season. He said an especially bad leak occurred on Hole 2 and that Hole 7 has been an ongoing problem for the season. Staff installed a new PLC panel and reported the pump is working, and that new satellite control units were put in last year; however leaks continue to appear in different spots.

The staff member said the city plans to bring in an irrigation company for a detailed assessment and repair plan. He also reported that crews are mobilizing for the Hole 5 bridge project.

Board members acknowledged the additional staff hours devoted to repairs and asked for follow‑up from staff on contractor recommendations and expected timelines. No formal action or contract award was taken at the meeting.
