Temporary Structure for City Police Station
The meeting began with Bruce presenting the plans for temporary facilities for City Hall and the Police Department during the construction period. Both City Hall and the Police Department will need to relocate to temporary facilities on 2nd Street, just east of the recycling center. The plan includes a 36 by 60 modular unit for City Hall and a separate 10 by 40 modular for the Police Department. The modular units will be placed on a gravel lot, and the existing grass, trees, and boulders will serve as a buffer between the buildings and the street.
Bruce explained that the 36 by 60 modular unit would not be sufficient for all city services, so an additional 10 by 40 modular unit will be used for overflow space. The Police Department's temporary facility will include a public entry, reception area, and secure workstations for officers. The modular units will be placed at grade, with the wheels removed, to ensure ADA compliance.
