Council approves $30,000 preconstruction contract with FCI Constructors for municipal building renovation
Summary
Council approved up to $30,000 for construction‑manager‑at‑risk preconstruction services with FCI Constructors of Wyoming for the Cheyenne Municipal Building renovation; a public commenter called the contract premature while council members said the preconstruction work is intended to finalize design and value‑engineer the project.
The council approved an agreement authorizing up to $30,000 for preconstruction construction‑manager‑at‑risk services with FCI Constructors of Wyoming for the Cheyenne Municipal Building renovation and potential municipal court second‑floor renovation. Supporters said preconstruction work will assist with design, value engineering, and producing buildable plans; a public commenter, Charles Miller, argued the contract was premature without finalized architectural plans and bids.
Council members emphasized that the contract is for preconstruction activities — not for construction — and said the intent is to produce complete plans so the city can move forward efficiently when funding and final approvals are in place. Councilman Wolf described FCI as having a strong reputation for similar work in Wyoming.
