Capitol gets max price

The Idaho State Capitol Renovation Project will cost $2.5 million more than planned. Stegner: “We have always been much more concerned about the renovation phase than the wings phase because of the unknowns that are typically attributed to renovation projects.” Project leader Jacobson-Hunt committed to the max price of $122.5 million. Building should be open for 2010 session. Out of state labor has helped the contractor after 2008 Legislature repealed the Idaho First law for the project. Russell in the Spokesman Review.
