(Atlantic) The Atlantic School Board, at Wednesday’s meeting, tabled the Architect/Engineer contract of a new high school storage shed. The cost of building the shed would be between $89,000 and $196,000.00; the engineer’s proposed fee is $15,000.00.
School Board member Jenny Williams moved to table the proposal pending further discussion with the building and trades instructors to see if this would be a viable project for the students. Schools Superintendent Steve Barber says the contractor would have to agree to this or provide the steel, the plans, and those things. Barber has two main problems, with this being a Building and Trades program project, and board member Kristy Pellett agreed.
The school board went ahead and tabled the discussion.
