The moment offered comments from school leaders about the project.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, the Meade County Board of Education announced a $14 million renovation project at the Area Technology Center which will be the first major project of it&#8217;s kind since the facility was built in 1975. The renovation will include the addition of 40,000 square feet of space and a redesigned parking area which will house state of the art instructional areas for the career pathway programs and college level classes.
