The city is considering a smaller municipal building and updated pricing. Earlier state filings and the broader facilities borrowing cover different scopes.

Texas City is reviewing smaller designs for its municipal complex, the centerpiece of a facilities program funded with $70,855,000 in certificates of obligation. The redesign would reduce the planned building area while the city works toward updated construction pricing.

At a July 30 workshop, staff presented alternatives of approximately 37,430 and 39,655 square feet, compared with an original two-story design of about 55,614 square feet. The workshop minutes record a preference for the larger of the two revised options, but no formal action was taken at that meeting.
