Forward Project Update: December 8 - "Glad Tidings"


This past week, the Forward Project leadership team was able to open bid packages for general construction and sub-contractor contracts. After months of working diligently with dozens of representatives from Groth Design Group (architects), Miron Construction (general contractor), and many other high-performing firms from across the state, we are glad to announce that the project is on budget and on schedule. 

The scope of our project was approved by our voters in April 2023, to achieve as much of the project as possible within a budget of $6.2 million. 

We have worked hard to achieve the goal Emanuel set and are pleased to report that the final bids have been received in a total budget range of  $5.9 - 6.0 million.

A new report on the final project scope and pricing is available for you and will be reviewed at this weekend’s open forum.
