From the meeting

At its September 1, 2026 meeting, the Building Committee went into closed session to discuss the award of a public contract for the expansion and renovation project, including the guaranteed maximum price (GMP). The minutes do not name the contractor or amount, but they confirm bidder interviews and contract terms were under review. The project will mobilize in January 2027, starting with fencing around the E.

Claiborne and Lora Robins Sculpture Garden. That makes this a live follow-on opportunity for construction and owner-side support around the next phase.
