Coolidge council approves purchase of new public works building
by Aaron Dorman | Coolidge Examiner
Frustrated with the current condition of the city’s Public Works Department, the Coolidge City Council had been planning earlier this year to allocate funds to construct a new facility.
But last Monday, the council approved an alternative solution to purchase an existing structure from Felix Construction Company for $1.5 million, at a site members believe will be a vast improvement.
City Manger Rick Miller described the 2.39-acre site as “strategically located” and “very attractive” for public works and possibly other functions as well.
