Summary

Committee members agreed to align survey deliverables and public engagement so the bond hearing notice can be posted by the third Tuesday in January and the warrant posted before the last Monday in January ahead of a planned March vote.

John Hayden, chair of the Public Safety Building Committee, and Christian Smith of Beals Associates emphasized scheduling survey deliverables and public engagement to meet statutory posting deadlines related to a bond hearing ahead of a projected March vote.

Hayden noted the need to have as much project information as possible by September or October to support public input and to comply with the requirement that the public hearing notice for the bond be posted by the third Tuesday in January and that the warrant be posted before the last Monday in January. The committee set internal milestones to gather survey data, complete a draft plan by early September, and prepare materials for warrant posting and public meetings.
