Camas City Council OKs $350K skatepark bid

Two months after Camas officials “hit pause” on a long-awaited effort to revamp the city’s 20-year-old skatepark, Camas City Council officials have approved a $350,403 bid from Lee Contractors of Battle Ground to replace the park’s aging equipment with concrete elements that will cater to skateboarders of all levels and better withstand the natural elements.

In September, the city received one construction bid for the skatepark remodel, which Camas Parks and Recreation Director Trang Lam later described as “substantially higher than the engineer’s cost estimate.”
