WILLIAMSBURG, Va. — Plans to build a new police station in Williamsburg are moving forward after a unanimous vote by City Council Thursday.
The new station will span 43,400 square feet near the Municipal Building located on Lafayette Street. Construction is expected to be completed in the fall of 2025.
The city said the $19.2 million price for the design and build of the station will include the completion of the basement and two floors of the station, the construction of a third-floor shell, design work for the new Public Works Yard and an entrance to the third floor.
City Council will have to approve the remaining two parts of the build at a later time. Those contracts involve the partial relocation, expansion and renovation of the Public Works yard and shops, along with office space on the third floor.
The city decided to contract with Henderson Inc. and its design-build team Moseley Architects following a bid solicitation that resulted in two proposals.
