SAN MARCOS — The Hays County Commissioners Court awarded a construction manager at risk contract to Joeris General Contractors at its May 12 meeting for the upcoming Eastside Campus facility.
The Eastside Campus project began in 2025 after Hays County commissioners Michelle Cohen and Debbie Ingalsbe recognized that there has been a disparity between services available for residents on the east versus the west side of IH-35. The facility is planned to have three floors and house several county departments, such as Human Resources, County services, County Clerk, Elections and more, bringing services to the historically underserved communities.
The request for proposals process yielded 10 submissions. After an initial scoring criteria, the top three companies were selected to do interviews — Joeris was ranked number one.
