Same footprint as existing, add wood fiber and concrete border. About $50K. New tables and paint <br /> inside, concrete around building. Shorten infield on ball field, finish fencing at players benches, remove volleyball court and reseed court and ball field. $40K for irrigation. Priority: <br /> Tennis court, playground, building, ball field, irrigation. Could add basketball court back in later. Tennis court estimate $100K.
