Board approves new stadium seating and facilities at two schools

What happened

New bleachers, a press box and concessions facilities will be built at Floyd Central High School and Highland Hills Middle School. At Highland Hills, the press box and restrooms will serve both football and soccer, and the seating is intended to move home spectators out of the sun.

Why it matters to families

The approved projects add or improve spectator seating and support facilities at both campuses, changing the layout and amenities at their athletic venues.

The evidence

The board unanimously approved the Stadium Bleacher-Press Box/Concessions Projects as presented on Oct. 26. The minutes say Floyd Central's new visitor-side bleachers will separate fans of the two teams on different sidelines; Highland Hills' bleachers will be placed on the other side of the field, with new press-box and restroom facilities serving football and soccer. The record gives no project cost.
