City Construction/Housing Office "Moving on Up to the Eastside"
Monday, June 25, 2007
The Gloucester City Construction Code/Housing Office has found a new home at Monmouth Street and the railroad. Those departments will be moving from the Police Administration Building at 313 Monmouth Street into the former County Health Station trailer that sits along side of the Train Station Depot. It will be a month or more before the building will be ready for occupancy. Counters have to be built, equipment and files have to be packed and moved. Plus the building needs to be wired for computer terminals and phones.
This past Saturday Joe Stecklair , left and John Stiefel, who are normally out and about inspecting construction sites and rental properties , were instead volunteering their time to make renovations to the office building. Stecklair is very excited about the move. "There will be more room. "I can't wait. Where we are now is just too small," said Stecklair.
The city purchased the building from the county for $1.00. The public will be informed when the new office building is open through this web site.
