Financing the Show Low Sports and Event Center
The city's biggest capital project now carries a $56.4 million programming-stage estimate, up roughly $5 million, largely because the six-court gym grew to fit 12 volleyball courts for tournament play. Designers will look at trimming the oversized kitchen and squeezing the building in schematic design, and the Council indicated it wants to build it right the first time rather than cut corners.
Show Low Sports and Event Center Design
Architects trimmed about 3,200 square feet from the event center — mostly kitchen, lobby, and meeting rooms — for an estimated $500,000 savings, without cutting capacity. The council approved the revised layout and got its first look at interior concepts, with a full cost estimate due in March.
