While the project scope does not include stairs or walks connecting the upper and lower precincts, its design takes these future connections into account. Scott Stadium Expansion Project. The Committee received an update on the budget and schedule for the Scott Stadium project. The project is on schedule. Bids have been close to the construction manager's estimates, which means that it is necessary to bid a number of items in the original project scope as additive bid items.
Suite sales are ahead of schedule.
Master Plan Update. The Committee received an update on the Groundswalk and the Carr's Hill Arts Precinct Plan. While the Committee supported the Carr's Hill Arts Precinct plan, it questioned the cost and implications of an underground parking structure in Mad Bowl. The general consensus was that a garage under the new Studio Art building was more practical, and should be the first priority. The idea of restricting Culbreth Road to service vehicles and limited access for patrons of the theatre and performance hall was well received.
