CASEY, Il. – The Casey City Council is preparing to move forward with a long-discussed remodel of the front office at City Hall.
During the council’s November 3 meeting, it was reported that the City Hall Committee had met and approved a new design for the collector’s area. The plan was developed with input from city staff, including Treasurer Gail Lorton and collectors Kelly Murray and Olivia Todd, in collaboration with Director of Public Works Ryan Staley.
“The biggest things to see is taking the two storage closets and making it one so that it’s more user friendly,” an alderman reported. “Moving the desks and counters forward, giving them five foot of space behind the desk instead of the three foot they work in now.”
The new layout will feature two main service windows and a central, wheelchair-accessible counter. With a functional design now in place, the next step is to prepare for construction.
“We made the decision to move forward and put on the agenda to move forward with taking bids to get the process rolling and get it finished,” the committee representative stated. The council will formally vote at its next meeting on approving the plans, which will then allow the city to solicit bids from contractors.
