Turlock seeds bid for Carnegie reconstruction

The city of Turlock is seeking bids for the reconstruction of the Carnegie Arts Center, heavily damaged in a fire.

The city received construction bids on the project last year but rejected them all after some of the bidders threatened to sue.

The city has estimated it will cost $7.8 million for the work, which includes a 19,000-square-foot addition.

Redevelopment money has been set aside for the project. Bids will be opened March 4.
