We are thrilled to share that even through the bidding process, we are still trending under budget. Two hundred ninety six companies were invited to bid on our project. One hundred seventy-two companies reviewed our project and fifty-nine companies ultimately submitted bids. Per board policy, we were able to secure a minimum of two bids for each area of construction and/or renovation. To view a summary of the bidding process, please click below.
