Board declines further spending on stop-sign modifications after AV-Tech rejects adjustments

Apr 28, 2026

Following an AV-Tech report that an experiment to control sign light brightness failed, staff presented options and costs; the Board chose not to buy new timed signs (estimated $2,320 per sign) and removed the item from future agendas.

The full story

Shane Willis, Operations Manager, reported that AV-Tech determined the experiment to control stop-sign brightness was unsuccessful and that AV-Tech was not willing to modify the existing stop signs. Willis said the district had two options: keep the existing signs and manage lighting as needed or purchase signs with a timer. He noted the overall cost for four stop signs was $9,280 ($2,320 per sign), as shown in the unaudited financial statements.
