The Corbin City Commission voted unanimously to award the KYOVA Electric the bid for the Corbin Civic Center Lighting System Project.
KYOVA Electric’s bid was the only one the commission received for the project, but it came in less than anticipated, according to Corbin’s City Manager Marlon Sams.
The bid was for $60,985 while the estimate was for upwards of $70,000.
KYOVA Electric is the same company that put in the Rotary Park lights and will be putting in the football field lights for Corbin.
The lights at the Corbin Civic Center will light up the soccer fields.
“This is really important to do this because soccer, like he said… They are not able to extend their hours like they need to,” said Corbin Mayor Suzie Razmus. “[The field is] used very extensively by a lot of people. They need to have some lighting up there.”
