Commissioners agree highway department can evaluate Beauregard High field grading; school approval, timing still unresolved
Summary
Commissioners discussed grading and site work at Beauregard High School. Highway staff and the school's principal planned an on‑site meeting; commissioners said the highway department can perform work pending the school’s go‑ahead and scheduling to avoid graduation conflicts.
Commissioners discussed a request from Beauregard High School for grading and site work at the school field. Highway staff and county commissioners said they could perform the work, but that timing depends on the school administration’s preferences and events calendar.
Commissioner Langley reported that Principal Richard Brown Jr. and school coaches want work completed before graduation in May if possible. Highway staff said they scheduled an on‑site meeting with Principal Brown at 8 a.m. on Wednesday to review the scope and timing. County staff said they had no scheduling preference other than coordinating with the school.
The highway department indicated it could perform the site work and recommended placing the item on an upcoming agenda for formal approval to begin work once the school confirms timing. Commissioners noted a previous issue where spring football preparations interfered with graduation ceremonies and said the school and county would avoid such conflicts.
Ending: Staff will meet with Principal Brown and return to the commission with a recommendation and schedule. No formal vote was recorded during the work session.
