Board recommends METCO for Jardine Stadium scoreboard upgrade after hurricane damage

The CCBOE Work Session held on April 24, 2025, focused on several key agenda items, including discussions on the Jardine Stadium scoreboard and the management of time during the meeting.

The meeting began with a reminder from the board chair about the limited time remaining for agenda items before the regular meeting commenced. The chair proposed tabling certain discussions to ensure all necessary topics could be addressed efficiently. The board agreed, noting that they had successfully managed without certain items for an extended period.

A significant topic of discussion was the replacement of the damaged scoreboard at Jardine Stadium. The board reviewed proposals received for a new digital display, ultimately recommending the approval of a contract with METCO for $154,952. This decision was made in light of damages caused by a hurricane and a car accident. The board expressed a desire to upgrade the scoreboard, considering the opportunity to enhance the facility while also addressing the financial aspects, including insurance compensation.

The meeting concluded with a consensus to hold an executive session after the regular meeting, allowing for further discussion on the topics at hand. Overall, the session highlighted the board's commitment to making informed decisions while managing time effectively.
