Fayetteville City Council added more than half a million dollars to the cost of Segra Stadium and an accompanying entertainment venue at its meeting Monday night.
An additional $591,000 was added to the project to cover costs associated with "punch list items" and finishing Hurley Plaza, Mayor Mitch Colvin said Monday prior to the meeting.
Around 5% of the initial $40.7 million in funds for the project were held in reserve until some construction was finished, and the list had hundreds of items, including patching up broken concrete and fixing water intrusion, Colvin said.
The cost addition in Monday's meeting included that 5%, plus the cost to complete the plaza, he said.
