Fulton City Hall to get new storage space, tech upgrades

FULTON – Fulton’s City Hall and Police Department building is undergoing renovations that will add storage space and upgrades to technology.

The city last year planned to renovate a portion of the building; however, when wet spots and black mold were discovered in a wall dating to construction in the mid-1990s, city officials decided to replace the affected portions with new walls. Construction also includes new flooring.

Construction is being completed by Eissens Construction & Roofing Inc. and is expected to be finished in the fall of this year. The city has budgeted an estimated $300,000 for the project, and expects to spend anywhere from $45,000 to $50,000 for new technology that will allow the city to videostream meetings, according to city business manager Tammy Garibay.
