CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (WAND) - Phase two of construction on the new Champaign Plaza is now not expected to start until summer 2026.
Champaign City Council approved an almost $200,000 change order Tuesday evening for engineering services on the next phase, bringing the agreement's total not-to-exceed amount up to nearly $1.24 million.
City engineers said the project was originally expected to begin work in April.
The area will include a fountain, lawn area, swings, benches and specialty lighting.
