Public engagement for downtown arena on hold until September

The public is going to have to wait another few months to see plans for a downtown arena.

The city says the process of finalizing a letter of intent with the proponent is expected to take about 90 days.

That would push public engagement sessions to mid-September.

The city says 1900 people participated in their sessions last fall, and that feedback was incorporated into designs.

The city says if the process continues to go forward, the project will break ground in late 2015.
