Orchard board learns about ball field upgrades

Tri-County Titans baseball coach Jeff Shabram reviewed progress at the Orchard baseball field with village trustees during a Nov. 11 meeting.

Sod has been installed in the infield. Plans include moving the crow’s nest to behind the third-baseline dugout and installing a fence.

Reed Miller, of Miller and Associates, in Kearney, discussed the one- and six-year street plan proposal. Trustees unanimously approved its adoption.

Highway 20 will see upgrades.

Trustee John Ferguson made a motion to approve a municipal finance agreement for repairs planned by the State of Nebraska. Resolution, which was approved 11.11.24 also addresses the repairs.

Applications for a part-time maintenance position were reviewed. At this time, trustees tabled a decision until the December meeting.

Trustees are scheduled to meet Dec. 16, at 7 p.m., in the meeting room at the Orchard Community Center.
