NORWIN SCHOOL BOARD APPROVES AGREEMENT WITH ARCHITECTURAL FIRM

Norwin School Board earlier this week approved an agreement with an architectural firm to begin designing improvements to the football stadium, but some school board members are worried about if they can afford the project. The Trib reports that DRAW collective out of Mt. Lebanon was hired to design the project, which would entail demolishing the home-side grandstands and building a new seating area along with restrooms, concessions, press box and various support facilities. The proposal also calls for improving the field house, visitor-side facilities and the surrounding site. But some say the project could cost over $15 million to complete, and that it would not be a good investment now.
