TIRZ #1 board weighs rebidding, redesigning or pausing; members favor a smaller interim project
Koller presented examples from other cities and three options: rebid the existing design, hire a new designer (about $50,000 to $100,000, about what had been spent on the first design), or pause. Several members said a smaller-scale project with pedestrian maps would be a good interim step, and the chair asked staff to explore those options. No vote was taken.[1]
What the sources say
- ✓ Verified
Koller said a new design contract would cost around $50,000 to $100,000, "which is how much we have already spent with the old design." Freeman attributed the construction cost to materials, modularity, size and custom design. Board member John Coffee said he thought the project was too early for the downtown's traffic. [1]
