Honorable Mayor and Council
Wyandotte, Michigan
Gentlemen:
At the request of the Recreation
Director, I have secured estimated
costs of constructing two tennis
courts in Bishop Park and am sub
mitting this information herewith.
We have two estimates for fur
nishing and erecting 24O feet of
back stop, one of Ss75OO, and one
of $4,000. To give you some idea
Of how this material has increased
in cost, We received a quotation
in 1887 from one of these concerns
to completely enclose tennis court.
involving 317 feet of material, for
S444.00. Using the lower of these
two estimates, the complete cost
would be as follows:
Back stops .........s $500
concrete ............ l48200
Wire mesh for reinforc-
ing .'................ 252.00
Construction Department
labor .............. $4,000
Tile, fittings and miscellan-
eouS ........,...... 10000
S36Oe.OO
ms OF course, does not include
nets or lighting.
In my opinion. it would be un-
wise to authorize this expenditure
at the present time in view of the
following facts:
l. The prohibitive cost of the
project.
2. The relatively small number
able to use tennis courts at one
time.
3. The fact that We already have
two excellent courts in Pulaski Park
which are seldom used, simply be-
