Project Description:
NorthStar was hired in February 2013 by Pueblo County School District 70 to complete pre-design surveys, detailed designs, construction management/inspections, and construction staking for track, football field, and tennis court remediation and reconstruction at the District’s three high schools. All three projects were substantially completed prior to the commencement of the Fall 2013 football season. All three projects included the complete removal and reconstruction of existing football fields and track facilities. The football fields were replaced with a synthetic artificial turf playing surface over an underdrain system. The track and fields facilities were replaced with asphalt pavement and synthetic surfacing. Two of the three schools received new synthetic surfaced, post-tensioned concrete tennis courts with lighting. Two of the three sites also incorporated new lighting for the football fields and tracks. All three sites received stadium upgrades including ADA accessibility improvements, drainage and utility improvements, safety improvements, storage facilities, etc. The new facility at Pueblo West High School included a new 3,000 seat grandstand with press box, men’s and women’s restroom facilities, home and visitor locker rooms, concession facilities, ticket booth, etc. The project was completed within budget as established by the Facilities Needs Assessment process completed by NorthStar for the District’s 2012 Bond Issue.
