Description/History

The Michael L. Skinner Sports Complex opened in October 1996 as the Mansfield Sports Complex and was renamed in Mr. Skinner’s honor in 2016. The 88-acre facility includes nine baseball fields and eight soccer fields, and is the primary playing facility for the Mansfield Youth Baseball Association and the Mansfield Soccer Association.

 

In the FY23 MPFDC operating budget, $1,000,000 was approved for improvements to existing athletic facilities, with the primary focus being the Skinner baseball complex. The improvement plan includes new restrooms, expansion of the concession stand area, enhanced entry walkway with trees, landscaping and lighting, expanded player warmup areas, and improvements to the fencing on all nine baseball fields.

 

Parks and recreation staff created project specifications for the fencing realignment plan and advertised the project for bid in November. The bid opening was held on December 1, 2022, with one firm submitting a bid. Triple-C Fence is the recommended low bidder in the amount of $110,000. The bid tab is attached.

 

Justification

The project will provide much needed improvements to the aging youth sports complex and extend the life of the infrastructure for decades.

 

Funding Source
