A bid opening was held at the Atlantic High School Media Center on Thursday afternoon for the school district athletic facilities renovation project. School officials reported that six general contractors submitted base-bids for the project.
The highest bid came in at $9,741,000 and the low bid was $8,650,000. Some alternative bids were given for a few parts of the project at the Trojan Bowl as well. The opening bids are construction bids only and will have other costs added.
It appears that the project will be able to continue as expected with the lower bids coming within budget. Further details on the costs are expected to be released on Friday.
The Atlantic School Board is set to host a public hearing prior to officially awarding the contract.
