"So, we'll have internal discussion here we'll look at each presentation that was given to us. We'll have to make a decision if we want to stick with what their design team is or we want to maybe scale back or add to any of those designs," explained Brian Winegardner, Allen County Commissioner.

Winegardner says they will have a decision by mid-August on their direction for both projects.
