Chris Nesteby, Facilities Director for Marion County, served as the Project Manager for the VA Demolition Project. Nesteby tells KNIA-KRLS News that the project came in under budget from an estimated $11 million to actual expenses of $10,700,000. Nesteby also said the project was given a year to finish and that efficiency came into play with completion in 10 months and 17 days. Nesteby says the Marion County Board of Supervisors were credited with spending money up front before the project started to help save the county money and he credits the board for being efficient.
