Staff reported the city has passed the LPA agreement with the state and a design agreement with GPD and is continuing design work while pursuing funding. The staff member told council the project team is working to have plans prepared so the city can seek right-of-way acquisition and construction funding.
When asked about timing, the mayor said the exact start date is not yet known but estimated that construction could begin in "2030 or 2031" if the project is funded. The mayor also said roughly $600,000 previously intended for right-of-way acquisition was applied to design because costs increased.
