Canton Board of Control to Consider $1.7 Million Civic Center Restroom Renovation

Canton officials are scheduled Tuesday, August 4, 2026, to consider awarding a $1,703,400 construction contract for restroom renovations at the Canton Memorial Civic Center.

The Canton Board of Control agenda lists Ordinance 52/2026, which would award and enter into a construction contract with Town Center Construction LLC for the Civic Center Restroom Renovation Project. The meeting is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. in the Mayor’s Conference Room on the eighth floor of Canton City Hall.

What the city agenda says

The agenda identifies Town Center Construction LLC as the proposed contractor and lists the contract amount at $1,703,400. The project is located at the city-owned Canton Memorial Civic Center.

The agenda establishes a scheduled contract action, not a confirmed final award. The meeting vote, an approved ordinance or later Board of Control minutes will establish whether the city authorized the contract.

State record includes $250,000 in capital support

A separate Ohio Facilities Construction Commission controlling-board record shows an approved fiscal-year 2026 release of $250,000 for improvements at the Canton Memorial Civic Center. The record identifies the City of Canton as the local project sponsor and facility owner.

The state project description calls for renovating and expanding the facility’s restrooms. It lists a target completion date of June 2027 and says the facility is expected to remain open and operable following completion.

The $250,000 state release is separate from the city’s proposed $1,703,400 construction contract. The state record does not establish that the entire contract amount will be covered by state funds.

Timing during Enshrinement Festival week

The proposed city action comes during a week of major activity in Canton. The Pro Football Hall of Fame Enshrinement Festival schedule lists the Enshrinees’ Gold Jacket Dinner for 5 p.m. Friday, August 7, 2026.

The event provides immediate venue context for residents, visitors and Civic Center users, but the available records do not say whether the proposed renovation contract would affect the dinner or other festival programming.

What residents should watch next

The next verification point is the Board of Control’s action on Ordinance 52/2026. Residents and Civic Center users should look for the meeting result, an approved ordinance and subsequent city notices for confirmation of the award and any construction or operations information.

For now, the documented plan is a proposed $1.703 million restroom renovation contract with Town Center Construction LLC, alongside $250,000 in approved state capital support and a June 2027 completion target in the Ohio facilities record.
