As the City of Clinton leadership moves forward with its execution of the strategic plan, the Mayor says the big focus right now is what is the future of its facilities.

Mayor Helen Michelassi calls progress very positive as she and many inside City Hall mark off things they are accomplishing and prioritize what is next.

What is being prioritized right now is the location for a new City Hall, police station, and fire station.

Currently, Clinton Police cars sit out in the elements every night when officers return home. Mayor Michelassi says that is unacceptable and wants a facility where those vehicles can be housed.

Mayor Michelassi recognizes the City cannot keep kicking the can down the road on this project; she hopes over the next few months to settle on a property and begin pursuing funding, as the City budget likely cannot pay for the entire project.

The Mayor has been focused on the strategic plan since she took office in May.
