The Daphne City Council has just approved spending $800,000 to get the engineering survey and architectural design done. The overall cost won’t be known until the job is bid but Daphne’s mayor, Robin LeJeune anticipates the cost to run several million dollars.
“We expect six to seven million dollars for this project…for this expansion,” LeJeune said. “We do have money in reserves. Our income is very well. There’s a possibility of a bond. We do have an animal shelter that’s going to be happening very soon, this year, so these two projects together. We do have reserve money that we can pay for a lot of this.”
LeJeune said the expansion has been needed for several years and said it will not only serve the public better but will go a long way in boosting morale by bringing patrol and detective divisions together again.Download the FOX10 Weather App. Get life-saving severe weather warnings and alerts for your location no matter where you are.
