New City Hall
On May 6, 2023, Richardson residents approved a Bond Program for replacement of City Hall following an August 2022 fire. The $46 million New City Hall Bond Program amount was added to the insurance settlement and prior voter-approved 2021 bond funds of $22.4 million.
Two open houses and a public survey were held on June 27 and July 8, 2024 to gather community input regarding the design of a new City Hall. This input was used by the architects as they designed the new facility.
Considerations were made not only in designing a City Hall that best serves the public, but an overall layout of the Municipal Campus that provides community spaces for future community events.
On January 13, 2025, the Richardson City Council, awarded the construction bid of New City Hall to McCownGordon.
