Town hall tonight on city’s downtown buildings

Cliff Williams / The Outlook The Alexander City Police Department was built in 1939 and added on to in 1982. Estimates put costs to bring the building up to code at $3 million.

More discussions will be had to determine the fate of the old Alexander City City Hall and police department.

Wednesday night the public is invited to share and talk about ideas for the two buildings left vacant as city operations were consolidated at the municipal complex. While renovations were underway at the municipal complex and the city still occupied the buildings, the city advertised requests for proposals (RFP) and just recently the city requested proposals again.
