Oakdale: Open houses planned for police expansion, city hall remodel project

posted in: All news | 0

Oakdale residents will have a chance to learn more about an upcoming City Hall remodel and police station expansion during two open houses next week.

Among the planned improvements: a new public entrance to City Hall from 15th Street North with a new public parking lot. Residents will be able to access all city services on the building’s first floor, including the police department.

Additionally, the new design provides secured parking and entrance to the facility for city staff.

Both projects are being funded by the local sales tax. Voters in November 2022 approved the local sales tax for a remodeled and expanded police facility; two years later, voters approved a five-year extension to the local sales tax to support the project.

Members of the design team will be available to answer questions and share information about the project plans and timeline at events on Monday and Tuesday night.

A virtual open house will be held via Zoom from 6-7 p.m. Monday; the Zoom link will be available prior to the Open House date on the project’s webpage.

An in-person open house will be 5-6:30 p.m. Tuesday at Oakdale City Hall, 1584 Hadley Ave. N.
