    I am against the idea of using a third-party vendor for the indoor pickleball court funded by taxpayer money. It feels like taxpayers are essentially paying twice—first to construct the facility and then again to an outside party for its use. I believe the village should manage this program directly, allowing all profits to go to the village rather than just a small percentage.

    Additionally, it seems that the terms of this contract are backwards. Ideally, we should aim for a higher percentage rate initially until we recover our upfront investment.
