Board reviews athletic field renovation plans, bleacher replacement and press‑box design
Summary
Administrators showed detailed designs for athletic‑field upgrades and a 60‑foot press box; the board set a preliminary procurement timeline aiming for bids before Thanksgiving and demolition next June, and discussed options to add seating as an alternate if bids permit.
District administrators presented site plans for athletic‑field work under the bond program, including bleacher replacement, a new asphalt apron between areas, demolition and a larger storage 'pull barn,' and a 60‑foot press box divided into sections for coaches, camera operators and game management. The plan will address ADA egress and seating and is intended to be bid as the first construction package, with bids targeted before Thanksgiving and demolition scheduled the day after the last day of track practice next June.
Board members asked about increasing seating capacity and were told alternate bid packages or later change orders could expand seating if costs allow. Administrators said detailed drawings call out slopes, ADA access, and that press box sizing was chosen to avoid triggers such as elevator requirements that would apply to boxes over a certain square footage.
