The McCracken County Fiscal Court voted on Aug. 25 to award Fortiflex the contract to supply temporary, portable fencing for the Collegiate Sports Park at a contract price of $314,309.31.

Why it matters: The portable fencing is intended to provide flexible field configurations across the complex, allowing conversion among baseball, softball and soccer layouts and supporting traffic control during events.

The court record indicates Fortiflex was selected as the low bidder after competitive negotiations. The motion authorizes the judge executive to enter into the contract and sign all necessary documents and authorizes the county treasurer to pay invoices. Court members clarified that ‘‘temporary’’ in this context refers to portable, reusable fencing that can be moved and stored on dollies and used across multiple fields and seasons; one speaker noted the fencing is sturdy and expected to be used long term despite the ‘‘temporary’’ descriptor.

The vote passed by voice; no amendments to the contract amount or scope were recorded in open session.
