Estimated Schedule

Design to start in FY23 and be completed in FY25. Land acquisition to start in FY25 and be completed in FY27. Utility relocation and site improvements to start in FY26 and be completed in FY29. Construction to start in FY28 and be completed in FY29. The schedules for land acquisition, utility relocation, site improvements, and construction will be reconsidered in the spring of FY23 based on how design proceeds and whether there is the fiscal capacity at that time to accelerate them, given competing capital projects.
