The firm managed stadium improvements for Major League Baseball\u2019s Athletics ahead of the team\u2019s temporary move to West Sacramento, and renovated Hughes Stadium at Sacramento City College in 2013. Republic FC played its first four home matches in club history at Hughes Stadium before relocating to Cal Expo.<\/p>\n<p>Infrastructure work on the Railyards site will begin in the coming weeks, the team said. Republic FC hired Sacramento County-based Lund Construction to build public infrastructure required under the team\u2019s agreement with the city, including streets, sidewalks, a bike trail, water and sewer infrastructure and storm drains.<\/p>\n<p>Pegasus Development, a Las Vegas-based, boutique project management firm will oversee the team\u2019s development projects. That includes the neighborhood surrounding the stadium.<\/p>\n<p class=\"summary gray\">This story was originally published April 9, 2026 at 5:00 AM.<\/p>\n<p>        Related Stories from  Sacramento Bee<\/p>\n<p>                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sacbee.com\/profile\/291934470\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-thumb\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1771056008_763_MERRILEES-PHOTO.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" alt=\"Profile Image of Annika Merrilees\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n                    <\/a><\/p>\n<p>                <a class=\"author-name\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sacbee.com\/profile\/291934470\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Annika Merrilees<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                    The Sacramento Bee<\/p>\n<p>            Annika Merrilees is a business reporter for The Sacramento Bee.
