Prosser board approves Eaglesign voucher for scoreboard purchase
Summary
The Prosser School District board approved a voucher for Eaglesign to cover scoreboard work after staff described equipment choices and installation needs; discussion covered cost, storage, and league requirements for permanent clocks.
The Prosser School District board voted to approve a voucher for Eaglesign (check number 913737) to move forward with scoreboard work after staff described options and site constraints. Chair (speaker 3) moved the voucher approval and the board carried the motion by voice vote.
Jackson, the district athletics director, outlined tradeoffs between mobile and stationary scoreboard units and recommended a hardwired, stationary system for longevity and system compatibility, noting that "the stationary ones are about 7 to 8,000, and then and the score clocks that I actually had were 7,000, but the installation cost more than the 7,000." Board members asked whether league (CWAC/WIAA) rules or vendor choices would force a particular solution and whether schools could share or rent mobile units; staff said most nearby stadiums already have built‑in boards, making sharing impractical for many competitions.
Board discussion also covered conduit and installation logistics near the track and the practicalities of storing large mobile units. Chair moved and the board approved the Eaglesign voucher; the chair then thanked Jackson for his work on the item. The approval was recorded by voice vote; the meeting did not record a numerical roll‑call tally in the transcript.
