February 22, 2021 – Since the Kuhn Hall Wall Breaking Ceremony in July 2020, the interior design of the anticipated Fort Meade Education and Resiliency Center has been finalized, as has the budget. Currently, Whiting-Turner Contracting Company, our general contractor, is sifting through the submitted subcontractor bids which cover more than two dozen categories, from concrete and masonry to carpentry, plumbing and electrical. Contact Tim O’Ferrall for more information on status or to submit a bid.Meanwhile, the digital hub of centralized resources known as the Fort Meade Resiliency Services Portal is finalized, operating and available online. Constituent feedback has been integrated, software has been tested and users have information for dozens of resources where service members, DoD civilians, veterans, retirees and their families can learn more about where in the region some of their unique needs can be met. Currently, the roll-out plan to bring awareness of the portal’s availability is being finalized while locations for the kiosks — physical platforms of the portal conveniently located inside the post — are being mobilized.
