From the meeting

The Finance and Facilities Committee said Field House bids came in far above expectations, at about $550 per square foot versus an expected $350 per square foot. Administration recommended rejecting the bids and working with the architect to value-engineer and reduce the project scope. The committee also said it would revisit the project after redesign and as potential federal funding becomes clearer.

This is an open capital project with a reset before rebid or redesign.
