Summary

The building and grounds committee approved a booster-funded sidewalk and concrete pad for aluminum bleachers at Benton High School, with the booster club covering the estimated cost of about $30,025.

The Bossier Parish School Board's building and grounds committee authorized a Benton High School booster club project to construct a concrete sidewalk and a pad for aluminum bleachers along the first-base side of the school's baseball field.

Facilities staff said the work is "in great need" because of attendance at games. The booster club submitted plans and is funding the work; staff reported the club's plans comply with district requirements. A committee member moved to recommend board authorization for the project with an estimated total cost of about $30,025; the motion passed. The committee did not record a numerical roll-call tally in the transcript.

Staff will continue to review plans and provide comments to the booster club; any required permits or construction contracts will follow district procurement procedures.
