Work at the Tempe Municipal Complex continues as council considers awarding a $3.4 million construction contract to complete structural repairs within the garden level of the building.
Tempe City Council will vote to award a construction manager-at-risk contract to Core Construction during its Jan. 9 meeting to complete the necessary improvements to the complex. Council meets at 6 p.m. at the council chambers in Tempe City Hall, 31 E. Fifth St.
Public works administrative manager Decima Sever wrote in a city staff report this project addresses structural deficiencies throughout the municipal complex's garden level, such as reinforced concrete with exposed and rusted rebar and tree roots and limbs causing structural damage.
