(KNZA)--The Horton High School football stadium and High School auditorium will be getting new lighting.

That’s comes after the Board of Education for the South Brown County Schools of USD 430 last week approved bids for both projects.

Cory Wilson with Olsson Associates reviewed with the Board the three bids received for the stadium lighting project, which ranged from $159,000 to nearly $189,000.

Wilson said he wasn’t familiar with the low bidder, National Streetscape. He said Olsson never received anything from the company to validate their performance on projects or references. Therefore, Wilson said he couldn’t confirm the ability of the contractor to install in a proper manner.

As a result, the Board voted to approve the bid submitted by the second lowest bidder, Brandy Electric, of Lee’s Summit, Missouri, in the amount of $163,200.

Superintendent Jason Cline said funding for the project will come from the capital outlay fund.

Two bids were received for the auditorium lightning project.

The Board voted to approve the low bid submitted by Knight Sound and Lighting for $17,799.
