$38 million worth of revenue bonds will fund the makeover of Park City School District athletic facilities without cost to the taxpayers, according to school board President Andrew Caplan.The Park City School Board in mid-November approved parts of a master plan to create a new athletic facility on Kearns Boulevard near Park City High School.The project, will be financed through a 20-year lease revenue bond. Caplan said the bonds would not raise taxes and would be paid primarily using the district’s construction capital outlay and capital fund balances.A public hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, Dec. 17, at 6 p.m. at 2700 Kearns Blvd. The same day, the school board plans to officially adopt the bond resolution.The master plan for the facility is divided into four phases. Phase one refers to the construction of baseball and softball fields, while phase two includes soccer fields, bleachers and tennis courts. Phase three would be an addition to the current fieldhouse and renovations for the existing gym, and phase four encompasses new track and turf, a support building for restrooms and concessions, and more bleachers.School board members voted to approve phases one, two and four on Nov. 19. Phases one and four will be executed between April and September 2025, according to a timeline Chief Operating Officer Michael Tanner provided the board. Phase two will be executed between March and August of 2026.In addition to the athletic facilities, the now-approved phases include the demolition of Treasure Mountain Junior High.
