- To date, GFPD has worked with legal counsel, bond counsel, bond underwriters, and others in order to continue the progress towards building the road. As of July 2025, GFPD has prepared and published a Request for Proposal soliciting construction bids for the road. In response to this RFP, GFPD received final bids from four vendors and GFPD then assembled an independent committee to evaluate and score the technical proposals.
- Based on the recommendation of the committee, GFPD entered into negotiations with its top-ranked construction vendor and is currently negotiating the contract with this vendor.
- In addition, GFPD, together with underwriters and bond counsel, has issued and sold the bonds necessary to fund the project and has now completed the closing for the bond transactions as of July 31, 2025.
- Based on the current progress, GFPD anticipates that construction will begin in August and expects to have the project substantially completed in December 2025.
