Town Administrator Mallory Aronstein announces that the Swansea Capital Building Committee is hosting an information session about its Municipal Complex Project this week and invites community members to attend.
WHEN:
Wednesday, Sept. 13 from 6:30 – 8 p.m.
WHERE:
Joseph Case High School Auditorium, 70 School St.
WHAT:
The Town is hosting an informational session for community members to learn more about Swansea’s Municipal Complex Project ahead of the upcoming Town Meeting on Nov. 6.
Members of the Swansea Capital Building Committee (CBC), the Owner’s Project Manager, and the Design Team will present information about the project and host a question-and-answer session for members of the public. Community members interested in submitting questions in advance should email the project team at municipalcomplex@swanseama.gov.
The information session will be filmed by Swansea Community Network for future viewing purposes and those who cannot attend.
The proposed Municipal Complex will include a combined Town Hall/Council on Aging and a Highway Facility on the former Del Mac Orchard property. The location was chosen as it is in a geographically central and accessible location, which will allow for financial sensitivity, the easiest use by the public, and the most cost-efficient construction due to an economy of scale. The location will also lend itself well to further development of public buildings and uses.
The complex is intended to provide for efficient governing (both managerially and operationally), consolidate offices and be a one-stop shop for residents, business owners, and appropriate gatherings. This project will also allow the public to use the town facility and eliminate the economic waste of fixing up buildings that are unable to house town services.
