- WSU is Weber State U. and the population is student enrollment.
- Notice the the people of Dow, NH killed the bond vote. (req'd 2/3). At least one other was were voted on, but Heber did not offer that option.
- Some were combined Fire and Police
- Heber proposal is twice the average in cost, 72% higher per sq.ft. and 13% higher per capita
- Notice Waseca was a remodeled Store, but I guess we can't say anything now about a remodeled school
- People also need to remember that in 2011 Heber passed a resolution to "Study" Public Safety - and failed to even initiate the study. (see the previous post)
Addendum: Pleasant Grove Utah, Vote failed by over 2 to 1 margin, cut cost and trying again.

December
12, 2012, Princeton, Minn
The city of Princeton has ordered plans and specifications to be
drawn up to construct a 22,540
sq. ft. public safety building at an estimated cost of $2.05
million.
The
estimate does not include design fees, any subsurface investigation
and/or soil corrections, de-watering, furniture/fixtures, equipment
and exterior door card access. The $2.05 million estimate also does
not include three additions the council is considering adding to the
consultant’s plan sheet – bituminous paving of the rear parking
and driveway area (estimated at $50,000), underground roof drainage
system to send water to existing storm water pond (estimate $8,000),
and an additional 15-foot-wide bay to house trailers (estimate
$80-90,000)
A
public safety committee, consisting of representatives of the police
and fire departments and the city, had been looking for some years at
spending nearly $6 million on such a structure.
(population 4,674)

2/3
vote required
The
Public Safety Facility Committee was created by the Board of
Selectmen to assist in the decision making process as the design of
the new Public Safety Facility evolves, and to report its progress to
the Board of Selectmen. A plan was presented to the 2013 Annual Town
Meeting to construct a new facility. The request did not receive
an affirmative vote. The Board of Selectmen is currently
considering plan revisions and will present a proposal at the 2014
Town Meeting.
The 30,000-square-foot facility would have housed the town’s police and fire departments and been located on the town’s sledding hill, at the intersection of Knox and Logging Hill roads. It would have replaced the two buildings where the departments now operate, both of which officials say are dangerously outdated.
Followup:
The
project would have been the first phase in developing a town center,
which would also include a community building and commercial and
green space and which has been in the town’s long-term plans for
nearly two decades. Voters last year approved – by a 70 percent
majority – $240,000 to design the facility.
Officials
have pointed out several structural problems at the existing fire and
police facilities. The fire department is not handicap accessible and
has serious water leaks and shoddy wiring. The fire trucks parked
there have to be customized simply to fit inside the parking bays.
The police department has no secured parking space for officers who
arrive with detained individuals, no holding cells, only one bathroom
and no means to separate youth and adults or men and women, as
required by law.
