In a special work session held on August 22, 2024, city officials convened to discuss the ongoing municipal campus expansion project. The meeting began with public comments before transitioning to a presentation by Randall Scott, founding principal of Randall Scott Architects, who provided updates on the design revisions based on previous feedback from the council and community leaders.

Scott highlighted the evolution of the project, noting that initial designs were deemed too temporary and did not align with the council's vision for a more contextual and contemporary architectural style. He explained that the revised plans now feature a more rectilinear design, addressing the feedback received during earlier discussions, including a preference for elements reminiscent of the city's depot and a design style likened to a \"wedding cake\" with terraced features and balconies.

The updated design includes a formal entrance on the west side off Third Street and maintains engagement with all three surrounding streets, a key aspect of the original concept. Scott expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration and emphasized the importance of melding contemporary aesthetics with the city's historical context.

The meeting underscored the city's commitment to creating a municipal campus that reflects both modern needs and the community's architectural heritage, as officials continue to refine the project in response to stakeholder input.
