The Fort Worth ISD school board has approved $14 million in expenditures, including $77,958 for a bidirectional amplifier system at Western Hills High School in Benbrook.
This safety upgrade ensures reliable communication for public safety radios and addresses signal-blocking issues within the building that pose risks for first responders. The Benbrook fire marshal mandated the project, which Aerowave Technologies will implement using special revenue funds.
The consent agenda item was unanimously approved at the Nov. 12 meeting, marking a significant step toward enhancing emergency preparedness. For a detailed breakdown of district spending, visit Fort Worth Report.
