CATAWBA COUNTY SCHOOL
BOARD LOOKS AT STADIUM UPGRADES
The Catawba County school system plans to replace
bleachers at several of its high school football stadiums, according to a
report published recently in The Observer-News-Enterprise.
The Catawba County Board of Education has approved
an agreement to hire an architect to create design concepts and cost estimates
for the replacements.
Assistant Superintendent Steve Demiter said
the school system is exploring work on the home and visitor bleachers at St.
Stephens and Bandys, the home side at Fred T. Foard and the visitor side at
Bunker Hill.
The school system asked the county for $2.3
million to fund bleacher replacements at the high schools, and the county
provided $1.9 million, Demiter said. An updated budget the school board
approved Monday night lists that $1.9 million for bleacher replacements at
Foard and St. Stephens.
"Many of the bleachers were put in many
years ago," Demiter told the board. "We're not sure we're going to be
able to do all the bleachers right now, so we're going to have to prioritize."
The school system hopes an architect will
report design and cost options back to the board by November or December. Once
the school board approves a design and cost estimate, it will seek bids for
work on the replacements. Selected replacements could by done by the 2012
football season.
