  • Security Enhancements: Bingman Construction recognizes the importance of security in public buildings. As part of the renovation, advanced security systems will be integrated. These may include surveillance cameras, access control measures, and emergency response protocols.

  • Functionality: The interior spaces will be reconfigured to optimize functionality. This involves redesigning offices, meeting rooms, and public areas to better serve the needs of the community and municipal staff.

2. Exterior Upgrades

  • Streamlined Services: Upgraded facilities will enhance the efficiency of city services, making it easier for residents to access permits, pay bills, and engage with local government.
  • Community Engagement: City Hall often hosts community meetings, events, and public hearings. The improved space will foster greater community engagement and participation.
  • Symbol of Civic Pride: A revitalized City Hall reflects the pride and commitment of Kirkwood residents. It stands as a testament to the city’s dedication to progress and community well-being.
