The Troy Board of Aldermen approved a motion raising the rental fees on the park pavilions at their June 15 regular meeting. Morris Dane Colbert, president of the board, presided over the meeting in the absence of Mayor Charles Kemper who was vacationing in Germany.
The large pavilion in the Fairgrounds Park will now be $75, an increase from $50. The pavilions at Avery Family Park and Weinand Park will go from $35 to $50. Mallard Pavilion near the city pond will remain at no charge.
The board also approved the street-asphalting bid submitted by Mid-River Asphalt. Streets scheduled include Main Street (Marble to Campbell Court), Lewis and Wood.
