The commission may take a final approval vote at its September 2026 meeting; a date has not yet been disclosed. An architect has been confirmed; however, the method of selection for the general contractor has not been announced. Although a firm construction start date has not been determined, the project is anticipated to be a 7-phase build with a 2-3 year timeline. *Project information, including timeline and contacts, has been obtained through public sources.
