Document Description
The proposed project would consist of the installation of four new athletic field lights around the existing football field and installation of a new Public Address (PA) system. The proposed project may also consist of trenching for the installation of an electrical line to provide electricity for the four athletic field lights, and is anticipated to disturb approximately 1,500 square feet. The proposed project would allow for events occurring off-campus to be held on the Northwood HS campus. Events would consist of sports games and practices, other school events, and non-school events.
The proposed project would not require the demolition of any existing structures, and no new buildings would be constructed on the campus. Additionally, the proposed project would not increase the student capacity or enrollment at Northwood HS.
