▶ Since 2010, the city’s population has grown 62 percent and continues to grow at a rapid pace. Additional city staff and expanded public facilities are needed to accommodate the increasing demands of a growing city.
▶ The number of city employees has doubled since 2000, and there are not enough offices or parking space to add any additional employees in the current city office and police station.
▶ City staff moved into its current building in 1999, and staff has exceeded the lifespan of its current space.
▶ The existing building is not ADA compliant.
▶ Space in the current building does not accommodate recommended security.
▶ Storage for city vehicles and police evidence is inadequate.
▶ Council meetings and library programs are frequently standing room only and over
room capacity based on current building codes.
▶ Expansion is not possible in the current location due to existing adjacent properties.
▶ Services provided at City Hall, the Public Library, and the Police Department would be consolidated into one facility.
▶ One facility would lessen overall costs of water, electricity, gas utilities, Internet, custodial, waste disposal, facilities maintenance, and landscaping.
▶ A new facility would provide the community more spaces to host meetings and events.
▶ The proposed municipal building concept would provide more than 14,000 square feet for city offices and police, and almost 15,000 square feet for the library. Renovating current buildings will only allow for nearly 10,000 for city offices and police, and almost 4,000 square feet for the library with no additional room for expansion.
▶ Renovating the existing downtown facility is seen as a short-term fix that restricts growth, and upkeep for the aging current facilities will add additional maintenance costs down the road.
▶ As building costs continue to rise, taking action now will save money for Valley in the long term.
▶ Selling the existing building provides greater opportunity for economic development in the Downtown Business District.
▶ Total funding needs will be determined upon completion of the bidding process and will not increase taxes or fees for Valley residents
