Bond 2023 Progress Update: March 2024

We extend our heartfelt gratitude for your invaluable support in passing the 2023 Bond! This measure holds immense significance for our district, and we deeply appreciate the unwavering backing of our community in bringing it to fruition. In our inaugural video progress update, we paid a visit to Eight Mile Stadium, the focal point of current activity, where construction crews are diligently dismantling the home and visitor bleachers. This undertaking holds particular significance within the bond, as the replacement bleachers will be fully ADA compliant, equipped with handrails, and accommodating 4,500 seats.
