CAPE CORAL, Fla. - On Monday, Cape Coral city leaders are expected to move forward with a plan to renovate the oldest government building in the city.
Old fire station number one is at the corner of Chester Street and Lafayette, which is near Cape Coral Parkway East. The building is empty.
Now the historic building, which was the original city hall, is set to be transformed from a vacated building into a brand new state of the art police substation and community resource center.
"I like to say it's a place where people gather," said David Mulicka, President of Cape Coral Construction Industry Association.
CCCIA has a big role in getting the project renovated.
"When we get the green light we will go immediately," Mulicka said.
In March, city councilors approved $14,289 to pay for the interior remodeling of the fire station. But the exterior and the façade will be taken care of by CCCIA. The organization plans on renovating the building with donated and at cost materials. This means no additional funds from the city will be required.
