Johns Creek City Hall, Police and Fire Departments to Receive New Home The Johns Creek City Council, by a 7-0 vote, authorized the mayor to execute a purchase and sale agreement for the acquisition of an existing office building in Technology Park, to consolidate City Hall functions with the headquarters for public safety personnel as well as the Citys Municipal Court.Consolidating City departments into one location will improve efficiency in communications, management and overall operations. With the purchase of an existing office building, the City will realize significant savings by avoiding the costs associated with new construction as well as converting rent payments to developing equity in a facility the City will own. The City plans to renovate the 75,000-square-foot building, utilizing ten years of operating experience to create a citizen-centric facility. The building, which is located at 11360 Lakefield Drive, sits on seven acres and comes at a cost of $9,409,125, or approximately $125 per sq. ft. With the purchase, the City will also control approximately 340 parking spaces adjacent to recently acquired land for a linear park.The City expects to close the transaction in February, 2017. The exact timeline for the move has yet to be determined.
