GRAND PRAIRIE ISD SCHOOLS NEED $4 MILLION IN REPAIRS:

 

Multi-million dollar repairs needed under two Grand Prairie schools

According to GPISD, the firm that designed the troubled Grand Prairie schools is PBK Architects. That was the same original architect for the Allen ISD's Eagle Stadium, which was recently found to have structural design failures throughout the complex. That stadium now awaits a fix.

Grand Prairie ISD is also seeking some permanent remedies, and is asking the court to allow the district to take statements from PBK personnel. The district acknowledges it is laying the groundwork for a potential claim against PBK.

PBK did not return multiple calls and an e-mail seeking comment.
