The Fishers Police Department has left the former headquarters building and moved to new quarters across the street, allowing many city functions to move into the former Police Department building and easing overcrowding as Fishers City Hall.  The Board of Public Works and Safety has approved a quote to continue work on the second floor of City Hall.

The $138,849 project, awarded to Design and Build Corporation, will relocate one of the large conference rooms, enhance physical security, and construct other changes to the office space arrangement.

The Fishers City Court has already been relocated from City Hall to the City Services Building (former Police HQ) and the city Information Technology Department is now back at the municipal complex after a long period of time located away from City Hall.

In other Board of Works actions:

–Speed limit changes were enacted for neighborhoods in the southeast section of the city.  This will result in uniform 25 mile-per-hour speed limits on neighborhood streets.  The full listing is available at this link.

–Hagerman Construction Group has been named construction manager for the reconstruction of the fire station located on Allisonville Road near 106th Street.  A formal contract with Hagerman will be submitted to the board for approval at a future meeting.

–Wolfe House Movers of Indiana will move the Kincaid House from its current location near I-69 and the Navient building, to the nearby roundabout.  The move, announced many months ago, will cost the same amount as originally budgeted, $85,000.

–It has been customary that the city declare surplus a police officer’s handgun when that officer retires from the department.  The board declared surplus the firearm of Officer Christopher Tucker, allowing him to keep the gun.  The firearms declared surplus in such situations normally have come to an end of their useful lives.  Members of the board congratulated Officer Tucker on his retirement from the police force.
