Overview

In November of 2018, Longmont voters approved revenue bonds for funding the rehabilitation and improvements of several city buildings including the City of Longmont’s Safety and Justice Center. $2.9 million in bond funds has been allocated to making the needed repairs to this structure. The existing Safety and Justice Center was built in 1993 and is showing some signs of distress. The City of Longmont has contracted JR Harris and Company to complete a thorough structural investigation of this and other city buildings with the ultimate goal of extending the life expectancy to these City of Longmont facilities.
