Ada Municipal Complex Reaches Foundation Stage
Ada, Minnesota’s municipal-complex project has reached foundation and utility work, with under-floor plumbing planned after state plumbing-permit approval.
Construction of Ada’s new municipal complex has moved into foundation and utility work, according to a June 29, 2026, Public Works Board update included in the City Council’s July 6 packet.
The update reported that footings and foundation walls had been poured for the planned City Hall, police station, and public-works-shop addition. Water and sewer connections for the main buildings had also been installed.
Utility and site work continues
Work was underway to reconnect utilities serving the south shop, while exterior foundation insulation and backfilling were in progress. The board update also said under-floor plumbing was scheduled after the state approved the project’s plumbing permit.
That sequence makes permit approval an important next step. The June 29 record describes the plumbing as scheduled or contingent, not as completed work.
A planned shared facility for city services
The project is planned as a facility of more than 18,400 square feet intended to bring City Hall, police, and public works functions into one complex. Great States Construction identified itself as the construction lead in a May announcement about the Ada Municipal Complex project.
The City of Ada’s project information and meeting-record pages place the work within the city’s municipal and public-works operations. Great States Construction’s active-project listing also identifies the complex as a project under construction.
What residents should watch next
The latest documented update shows structural and utility progress, but it does not establish a completion date, occupancy date, final cost, or change in project financing. It also does not indicate that city services have moved into the complex.
For residents, businesses, and people who use Ada’s municipal services, future City Council packets and project updates should clarify whether the plumbing permit has been approved, how building work is advancing, and whether the construction schedule or project details change.
