(KLZA)--An architectural firm is selected to design the Southeast Community College-Falls City Center.
According to a press release from Falls City Economic Development and Growth Enterprise, SCC has chosen BCDM, of Omaha, for the design project.
The selection was made following meetings that included two other firms.
Bob Morgan, Vice President of Program Development, and the Beatrice Campus Director, in the release, says the overall design of the project will begin after the first of the new year, with actual construction planned for spring.
Completion of the center is tentatively set for the fall of 2018.
The center will include space for health sciences, general active learning and manufacturing.
The site of construction, acquired by SCC in December 2016, is located immediately north of the Falls City Aquatic Center, on the east side of Bill Schock Boulevard.
The Tri-State Labor Basin committee of EDGE began organizing public support for a community learning center in August 2014 based on the community’s remote location from the main SCC campuses in Beatrice. Resolutions were passed, and letters of support received, paving the way for the construction to become a reality.
The Center is one of six community Learning Centers being developed by SCC to increase service to residents of the 15 county service area in accordance with SCC’s long range plan for facility and program improvement.
