In late November, Mayor Butch Zaragoza announced the purchase of two properties for the new City Hall.
The former Food World site was acquired for $1,150,000. The former Joe's Ranch House site on Mayland Lane was acquired for $825,000. Williams Blackstock Architects will design the facility and B.L. Harbert will serve as construction manager.
“The construction of a new City Hall accomplishes many goals for the City beyond meeting organizational space needs," the mayor said in an official release. "It will serve as a catalyst for new development along the Highway 31 corridor."
With the closing of the property a schedule is underway that could result in the completion of a new facility by August 2015. The project is slated to begin in the spring of 2014.
