Linn-Mar Stadium, Why Pay More?
So, the Linn-Mar School Board wants to throw more money into the already $10 million stadium. Why Pay More? Well, because they made the wrong choice and are embarrassed by all the problems it has caused.
What was the wrong choice? Not doing their due diligence in the way of research. They turned down the lowest bidder simply because the contractor had proposed an asphalt parking lot. Instead, the school board approved a bid that was $110,000 more expensive! The winning bid, proposed by RDG Planning & Design, was a concrete parking lot and the board thought it was a superior pavement. Clearly, they were wrong.
