Southaven Aldermen Nov. 3 Agenda: Parks and Public Safety Projects
Several items involve projects the city has already announced or started:
- Indoor Tennis Facility Task Orders: The board will consider task orders tied to the indoor tennis center planned next to the Snowden Grove Tennis Complex. Earlier this year, the city said UrbanArch Associates was designing the facility, with 8 to 10 indoor courts, offices, a pro shop, concessions, locker rooms, and elevated seating for spectators. Construction was expected to begin once design and bidding are complete, likely in early 2027.
- UrbanARCH Contract Renewal: A separate item renews the city’s contract with the architecture firm.
- Fire and Police Training Facility Task Order: The agenda lists a task order for a fire and police training facility. The agenda doesn’t give the project’s details or cost.
- Snowden Grove Sign Bids: Aldermen will review bids for signs at the Snowden Grove park complex.
- Resolution for Sole Source Purchase: A sole-source purchase for the Parks Department.
