An additional $600,000.00 was allocated to this project as part of the approved FY 2020 Budget. The additional funds allowed for the extension of the sidewalk from the parking garage to the Zoo, additional electric vehicle parking spaces including associated charging station infrastructure and garage signage.
The Zoo Parking Garage was completed and made available for public use in October 2019. The proposed amendment will provide for the design, fabrication and installation of large-scale exterior signage for the newly constructed Zoo Parking Garage.
