Construction Costs $6,893,000
Design, Planning and Management $1,178,000
Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment $2,000

With a reasonably detailed conceptual estimate now available, the City and the architect can begin to assess adjustments to the project scope that might bring the project cost back to a more acceptable level. Modifications in scope may also allow for a different phasing approach.
