At the Nov. 14 school board meeting, Great Bend USD 428 Superintendent Brad Reed had an architect show the board two proposed building projects that could cost more than $2 million: A new bus barn/maintenance building constructed next to the District Education Center on Patton Road, and a remodeling of the Center itself. Payment for the projects would come from capital outlay funds and would be accomplished with no tax increases, he stressed.The board was asked to give its preliminary approval that night and allow the projects to move forward. However, members indicated they needed time to study the proposals and consider other potential district projects before offering a decision.
