Shared City-Schools Building In Cedar Hill Scheduled To Open In July
February 23, 2008
The new Government Center, which houses the School District Administration offices, the City Hall, and the Police Station, is set to open in July.
Already it is getting attention.
The Dallas Morning News has an article about this unique building and all the relevant specifications.
But officials say the facility in the 200 block of Uptown Boulevard is on track as Texas’ first government building with city and school district offices under one roof.
“From what we can research, this is the only building of its kind in the state where the city and school administrations are located in one building,” City Manager Alan Sims said. “This is not an easy project, but building this together is saving the taxpayers money and is going to benefit the community.”
This is the continuation of other partnerships between the City and the schools, such as shared parks and athletic fields.
