PRETTY PRAIRIE, Kan. — The Pretty Prairie USD 311 School Board were in consensus in bringing a $10.4 million facilities improvement bond issue before its patrons following a special meeting Monday night.
The board will meet again next Monday to officially approve the project scope and the resolution bringing the bond proposal to the public for a vote.
The proposal would include a list of needed maintenance and upkeep including new windows and doors, secure entrances and roof repairs and replacement on all district buildings. It also includes expanding the middle school gymnasium and turning it into the main competition facility. This would include a new lobby, concession stand, restrooms, locker rooms, and a weight room. The district says that the proposal would be more cost effective than renovating the current high school gym into a competition gym or building a new gym.
If all goes as planned the vote on the bond issue will be Tuesday, Sept. 6.
