It should take about 16 months for the entire project to be completed.
City officials say they are working to meet the needs to ensure the building meets the LEED certification. Officials say they are also addressing how to reduce light pollution from the site.
When completed, the site should have classrooms, an auditorium, a "burn building" to practice fires, a "mock village" featuring a fake home, convenience store, and nightclub, a driving course, and a gun range.
