Manti High School will add 100 parking stalls by the start of school in August.
The South Sanpete School District has awarded the contract to Enterprise Paving, Orem, which submitted a low bid of $72,493. The money will come from a district capital outlay reserve.The lot will be built on a strip east of the campus on 100 North; 20 feet of school property and 30 feet of Sanpete County land will be joined. The county is allowing the district use of the land on a long-term lease.
Sanpete County will use the parking area for special events. It will also ease parking congestion on 500 North, where the overflow of faculty and student vehicles have been parked.
