Board hears report of facility work and large SBA grant for career‑tech building
Summary
Roy Wager told the board the Fred Everly administrative council has started asphalt work funded by an SBA grant and reported a June notice of an SBA building grant the council estimated at $2,000,000 to connect a parking‑lot building to the main building and possibly add programs.
Board member Roy Wager reported on facility activity related to career‑tech programs and an SBA grant award. He said the Fred Everly administrative council had begun asphalt work funded by an earlier SBA grant and that, on June 23, they received notice of an SBA grant related to construction to connect a building to the main facility. "They got $2,000,000," Wager said, describing the award as a significant start toward a project that could enable new programs once construction is finished.
Wager also described a student who placed 18th at a national competition and noted the council raised about $6,000 to support the trip. Board members asked whether the $2,000,000 would fully fund the project; Wager said he did not know if that amount would cover all costs but called it a good start.
No formal action was taken on the grant at the July 22 meeting; Wager said details will be shared as the project and funding are finalized.
