(Peel Plaza)
The official sod turning hasn’t taken place yet but work has already begun on constructing the new Police headquarters building across Union Street from the Chipman Hill parking garage.
Part of the Peel Plaza development is a proposed parking garage which elicits little enthusiam among some members of Common Council who have to give their approval for it to be built.
City Manager Pat Woods warns the people who work at the new justice complex, where all the courts will be, have to park somewhere.
He estimates there will be 300 or so people working at the justice complex, another 200 at the new police headquarters and 220 others have been parking in the Peel Plaza area who will also need new spaces.
