1.1. Background / Purpose of Study

The existing City Hall Building is a one story building that was originally constructed in 1973. The facility

then had a two story addition constructed more recently, located approximately in northwest corner of the
Fire Department.

This facility has been previously renovated a couple of times to modernize a few departments within the
facility and to provide needed rooms. Within this facility there are the following departments: Public
Common Area, Human Resources, Meeting Rooms, I.T. / Communications, Community Development, Police,
Fire Department, Finance, Parks and Recreation, and Administration. Additionally, there are miscellaneous
rooms to accompany each department such as storage rooms, meeting rooms, break rooms, etc.

This report will concentrate on the assessment of the existing Athens City Hall Facility, with a particular
