The city of Independence is moving forward with remodeling projects for a pair of buildings in the downtown district.

 

Both the Fire-EMS building and the City Hall will be continuing to undergo rennovations of $32,620.78 after being approved by the city commissioners. Assistant City Manager David Cowan says that a new roof is being put on the Fire-EMS building currently, and will be completed next week.

 

Other rennovations include changes to the dispatcher access control, floor infill for fire pole, and an electrical double throw switch for City Hall.

 

Additional items of discussion at the Independence City Commission include a resolution for the Small Cities Community Development Block Grant Program for 106-110 N 8th in Independence, as well as an executive session with an attorney regarding matters that would be deemed privileged in an attorney-client relationship.

 

The next City Commission meeting will be February 23rd at 5:30 p.m. in Memorial Hall of the Civic Center in downtown Independence.
