All seven bids opened by city officials Wednesday for the construction of the shower and changing facility for the minor-league baseball club at the city-owned stadium were more than $200,000 over the anticipated $250,000 budget, City Administrator Robert Lowery Jr.
Of that figure, the city expected to pay $150,000 out of its general revenue fund and use a $100,000 grant from the county's Convention and Visitors Commission, which is funded through the county's hotel-motel tax.
Lowery said the city was disappointed with the bids because officials had worked hard to come up with a "bare bones" addition.
