From the meeting
At the October 20, 2026 workshop, Public Works said the South Shop project had finished schematic design and staff would ask the board to move it into design development with a $60 million program budget. The project is already in the CIP as BSD-MSS-2001 and includes design, construction, site work, furnishings, mechanical and electrical equipment, office equipment, and technology. RSP Architects and Knutson Construction are already on the team, so the commercial angle is follow-on design, value engineering, and phased construction packages.
