Questions

  • What is the current forecast cost and expected completion date?

Related issues

What is the complete cost, funding and delivery plan for the campus?
Scope & interpretation notes
  • 2026 annual allocation and YTD spending are separate from the $38 m multi-year construction budget. T-008-26 identifies a $56.856 m combined MURC and servicing package. Borrowing authority is not expenditure.
