Overview
- Jefferson County Public Schools moved three Friday football games while it reviews stadium safety following last week’s railing collapse.
- The collapsed bleacher railing at Waggener High School has been repaired and is awaiting reinspection.
- Matchups were shifted to new sites: Moore at Fairdale; Waggener vs. Breckinridge County at Seneca; Pleasure Ridge Park vs. St. Xavier at St. Xavier.
- JCPS says a structural engineer will examine newly installed bleachers districtwide and the district is awaiting final engineering reports.
- Louisville Metro Codes inspected the bleachers in September, found them compliant with the Kentucky Building Code’s 200-pound lateral load standard, and approved plans stamped by a licensed engineer.
