The City of Dodge City is holding a June 25, 2026 public hearing on a proposed amendment to its STAR Bond Project Plan for the Heritage District, outlining $61.1 million in new attractions, hospitality investments, and downtown improvements. Major components include a 50–55 room Hilton Outset Collection boutique hotel, a 12,000 sq. ft. Western Kansas Motorsports Museum, projection mapping at Boot Hill Museum plus a new hotel, Trail of Fame medallions and the Wyatt Earp Gateway, extensive streetscape/trails/landscaping/public art work, and historic facade and balcony restorations on Front Street. The amendment seeks $20.87 million in STAR Bond-eligible funding, with the balance from private capital and community partners, and feasibility findings show strong visitation and revenue projections. At the conclusion of the hearing, the City Commission will consider an ordinance approving the amended project plan, but individual design, construction, technology, exhibit, and operations contracts are not yet detailed in this document. This creates a multi-year set of opportunities for architects, engineers, contractors, museum and attraction designers, AV/projection mapping vendors, hotel development and management firms, landscape and public art providers, and tourism consultants to position for upcoming procurements tied to the STAR Bond-funded phase. Sellers should focus on helping the City and its partners shape scopes, phasing, and implementation strategies that fit STAR Bond requirements and the Western heritage tourism brand.

On June 25, 2026, the Dodge City Commission held a public hearing and approved Ordinance 3844 amending the STAR Bond Heritage Area Project Plan, authorizing up to $20.87 million in STAR bond financing within a $61.1 million redevelopment program. The amended plan covers multiple destination tourism components including a 50–55 room Hilton Outset Collection boutique hotel, a 12,000 sq. ft. Western Kansas Motorsports Museum, projection mapping at Boot Hill Museum and a new hotel, Trail of Fame medallions and Wyatt Earp Gateway, plus extensive streetscape, trails, landscaping, public art, and facade and balcony restoration on Front Street. The ordinance expresses the City’s intent to issue STAR bonds and reimburse eligible project expenditures, but individual design, construction, technology, and operating contracts for these components are not yet specified in this document. This creates a near-term pipeline of separate procurements for hospitality, museum exhibit design, AV/projection systems, civil and streetscape construction, historic restoration, wayfinding, and public art over the life of the project. Vendors can position early with the City Manager’s office and the STAR bond legal/finance team as the City sequences projects and defines scopes, phasing, and public-private partnership structures with private capital and community partners. Consulting support around project management, tourism planning, financial structuring, and compliance with Kansas STAR bond and federal reimbursement regulations may also be needed as they move from plan approval to implementation.

The City is replating Dodge City Business Park, Unit Two to reduce 25 underused lots down to 17 larger industrial lots with reconfigured rights-of-way. This is meant to make the park more marketable and improve access and infrastructure layout, with Planning Commission and staff recommending approval. Industrial developers, engineers, and site selectors can track this as a signal of upcoming pad-ready sites that will require vertical construction, utilities extensions, and related services.

The City approved Resolution 2026-16 to extend New West Hotels LLC’s due diligence period for a planned 50–55 room upscale branded hotel at 619 N. 2nd Avenue. The 60-day extension to September 17, 2026 is to finish structural engineering review, MEP cost analysis, elevator replacement bidding, and telecom relocation agreements. The hotel developer is still shaping scope and costs, which is a window for design consultants, specialty contractors, and hospitality service providers to connect with New West or the City on this redevelopment.
