For this reason, staff intends to revisit the project scope to reduce costs while maintaining the purpose of the project then bring the project back to Council in 2020 for authorization to rebid. By waiting a year, the construction market may cool, resulting in more favorable bid prices and provide staff with the opportunity to look for supplemental funding sources.
