Auburn’s Board of Trustees is set to vote to approve a project to put a new videoboard in the north endzone of Jordan-Hare Stadium at its Feb. 2 meeting, according to documents posted Thursday to the Board of Trustees website.

The documents currently suggest the vote is only to add a new video board to replace the antiquated scoreboard currently present, but does not include the full-scale renovation to add more premium seating to the north endzone as athletic director John Cohen suggested in an interview with AL.com.

It is not clear from the Board of Trustees documents currently posted whether the vote will encapsulate the full renovation Cohen is hoping to lead. The larger-scale project approval will likely come at a future meeting.

Cohen did not give a budget or a timeframe for the project during his sit-down with AL.com in mid-January. Documents posted to the Board of Trustees website state the project is expected to be paid for with athletic department funds but does not note an expected cost or completion date.

According to the Board of Trustees meeting materials posted online, Auburn plans to use the firm LBYD Engineers of Birmingham, Alabama, to facilitate an “accelerated design process.”

Cohen has long suggested a plan to change the outdated north endzone scoreboard during interviews and appearances on Auburn’s Tiger Talk radio show.

But the expected vote in early February will be the first tangible sign of progress toward an upgrade on the north end of the stadium.

Much more information including possible designs, timelines and budgets may be discussed at the upcoming Feb. 2 meeting.
