PUTNAM — In late summer or early fall, depending on the Highway Department’s schedule, residents will see the rebirth of the town’s tennis court complex.
Town Administrator Elaine Sistare said the Board of Finance recently approved spending $160,000 on the project.
She said one of the three tennis courts will become a pickle ball court. The basketball court will also be redone.
She said the Highway Department will do the asphalt part of the project. Fencing will be replaced, as will the nets. And there will be painting. The materials and some of the work and the disposal will cost about $160,000.
The pickle ball court will be closest to Church Street.
She believes that the courts have been there for decades. She said some folks remember the courts being flooded for ice skating.
