FAIRFIELD - Solano Community College's plans for a new center in Vacaville are going from blueprint to reality.

Potential bidders on Wednesday take a tour of the 60-acre site, which is directly across from the current center's location at 2000 North Village Parkway.

Plans for phase one of the project were approved by the Department of State Architecture. The college plans to select a company to lead the project within two weeks, said Ross Beck, the college's public information officer.

Phase one calls for the construction of a 40,000-square-foot facility and parking areas on 10 of the 60 acres. The two-story building will include a multi-use room, a learning lab, a lecture hall, two science labs, two computer labs, seven classrooms, study areas and offices for faculty and staff.

Beck said development of the 50 remaining acres, which will include athletic fields and other buildings, will come at a later date.
