Falls Church Manager
Urges New $4,000
Municipal Center

Construction of a new Falls
Church Municipal Building has
been proposed by the city mana

The one-story structure would
cost approximately $4,000 ac-
cording to the estimate of Roy F.
Dunn, the manager. 1t would be
built on city-owned lot south
Of the police station on South
Washington street.
The planning commission has
been asked to approve the pro-
posal, which does not provide for
the full setback from the street
required by the coming ordinance.
Funds for the project would
have to be appropriated by the
City Council.
AT present the city has offices in
the municipal building on North
Washington street. In addition,
public works personnel are sta
toned at the property yard on
West Broad street. The city
manager and engineering staff
have offices in the Rust Building.
The proposed city hall would
provide space for the manager and
the directors of finance, public
works and utilities. An engineer
ing Office and conference room are
also included. Space may be pro-
vided in the basement for new
police station.
Later, under Mr.. Dunn's plan, a
