At the Winamac Town Council meeting last Monday it was revealed that the renovations to the new police station are nearly complete.
Employees with various departments have been working hard to complete aspects of the project that relate to their various positions. Town Manager Brad Zellers reported that since town employees were utilized for much of the work, they were able to save around $70,000 on the project.
As of last week, the only remaining renovations were a few small internal details and the installation of the sign outside. They are utilizing the sign that was in front of the old police station but will be obtaining new letters to replace the ones that were damaged by the sun over time.
Once renovations are complete, the Winamac Police Officers will be able to start moving their supplies over to the new facility on Main Street. When the facility is finished and filled, an open house will be announced in order for citizens to see the new station.
