Spencer, IA (KICD) — The Fairview community tennis courts in Spencer are due for some maintenance, but there have been some difficulties securing a bid for the project.

Superintendent Terry Hemann told KICD the plan to potentially relocate the courts to the middle school stemmed from a possible plan to remove the courts entirely and start from scratch.

Currently the City and Spencer Schools have a partnership where the school heads up maintenance for the city-owned courts.

Operations Director Jason Albrecht also suggested utilizing a different kind of material for the courts that would be more expensive upfront but last longer.

No decision has been made yet, and the district and city will continue to work together to decide what they think is the best course of action for the community as a whole.
