place on February 19th, where they viewed renderings,
met Terra Frisbie & Group team members and shared
their ideas.
Next steps for the project include the following
phases:
• Interim Agreement – City staff will work
with Terra & Frisbie Group to execute a short-term
agreement by March 18th.
• Comprehensive Agreement – Following the
interim agreement, the city and Terra & Frisbie Group
will negotiate a full agreement. This process will take
time, and there will be significant opportunities for
public information and input throughout.
• Project Advancement – Once the comprehensive
agreement is finalized the project will move into the
next phase, including detailed design, permitting,
and construction. The city will continue to provide
ongoing updates to ensure transparency and public
engagement.
