PROVO,Utah – July 19, 2018 – The
Mayor and Municipal Council jointly make known their intent to address the
critical space needs and deteriorating, unsafe condition of the current
Municipal City Center and Fire Station No. 2 by asking residents for approval
of a general obligation bond in the upcoming election. Currently, the City
Center serves as the headquarters and operations center for numerous city
services, including police, fire, and dispatch.
The
amount of the bond proposal remains to be determined, but will likely be
between $44.5 million and $60 million, based on the three alternatives
currently being reviewed by the Municipal Council and Administration. As
elected leaders, we implore residents to get involved and assist us by
providing input as we evaluate alternatives, which are: (1) relocate the City
Center to the former Sears building in the Provo Towne Centre Mall, (2) upgrade
and expand existing City Center facilities to meet necessary safety criteria
and space needs, or (3) build a new and expanded City Center on the current
block in downtown Provo. Thank you in advance for your input.
