Town Hall Meeting Re: Justice Complex

There will be a town hall meeting on Monday April 10th, 2006, at the Greensboro Center to discuss the two top locations for the Justice Complex: The old Coca-Cola bottling plant location and the two-part downtown location. Figures from the last meeting showed the downtown location as being around $600,000 less expensive; however, there is some doubt to how accurate those numbers are in this preliminary stage. The two locations could end up costing close to the same amount. Another interesting point is the judge's statement that the police station and court should be two seperate buildings. The separate downtown locations would be able to accomodate that request. While I personally prefer downtown, i'd be interested to hear the community response at the town hall meeting. Here are some pictures with the first two being rough sketches of the downtown locations (with a new electric department as well) and the last is an overlay of the combined police/court at the Coke location.
