BACKGROUND:
Union County received a turnkey proposal from Musco Sports Lighting, LLC for new LED lighting at Marshville Municipal Park, supporting baseball, softball, and tennis/basketball facilities. The quote was procured through the Sourcewell cooperative purchasing contract (041123-MSL), for which Union County is an active member.
The scope includes demolition of existing wooden poles/fixtures, installation of Musco’s Light-Structure System™ with Total Light Control (TLC-LED™) technology, new electrical service components, signed/sealed engineering drawings, permitting, and required MWBE participation (35%). The system includes a 25-year warranty covering all maintenance, labor, materials, and communication costs via Musco’s Control Link monitoring system.
Total Project Cost (Turnkey): $1,125,000
• Musco materials and pole modifications: $707,000
• Installation (includes 35% MWBE): $395,000
• Estimated USE tax: $23,000

This project supports the planned CDBG-funded park improvements in partnership with the Town of Marshville and aligns with the lighting needs for Fields #1-3 and the tennis/basketball courts.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Union County CDBG program will be expending $1,125,000 of its federal funds in a HUD Qualified Census Tract area on Parks and Recreation equipment. Completing this project will push the CDBG program towards compliance with HUD Timeliness and meeting the mission of CDBG in Union County.
