# Summersville City Council 7.27.26

Summersville City Council meeting (the transcript says the meeting was held July 13; the title is dated July 27, 2026). The council received a conceptual presentation for Phase 2 of the Summersville Recreational Sports Complex, including four Little League fields, parking, courts, trails, and other amenities. The design is preliminary; a full buildout was estimated at approximately $6–10 million. Phase 1, being built by High Point Construction, is progressing, with work continuing on the soccer complex, artificial turf and lighting coordination, and site infrastructure. Groundwater issues beneath the turf field remain under review. No Phase 2 contract award or construction approval was reported. Officials discussed a grant application of roughly $3.5–4 million, but no award was announced.

The finance director presented the first FY2026–27 general fund budget revision, including $15,000 each in police and street department capital outlay to share the cost of space in a building at the recreation park, a $12,550 increase for previously approved council grant contributions, and $28,843 for Brown Oaks building repairs and maintenance; the transcript does not capture a vote on this revision. The council approved a request from the Nicholas Oldm Foundation to transfer previously awarded grant funding from window replacement to roof repairs at Old Main. It also approved first readings of proposed water- and sewer-rate ordinances.
