The recently approved Government Center remodel could come into clearer focus at the county’s 8:30 a.m. board meeting Tuesday.

Shortly after 10 a.m., the board is set to discuss how to move ahead on the remodel, mainly what combination of architects and construction managers will be hired.

If the board opts to hire a construction management firm, they’ll discuss approval of a contract with Knutson Construction.

Knutson was the construction management firm for the $28-million Jail and Justice Center project. County officials have said they were pleased with Knutson’s work.
