The contractor asked to be relieved from the construction contract and in February, Commission approved the termination so that we can close this chapter and rebid the project to get back on track.
Contract termination does not happen very often and takes about three months to complete termination; however, we are working to prepare the rebid advertisement as termination is being completed. This was unexpected and unfortunate news, but we are committed to finding a new contractor. We understand the importance of this project for the community.
