The City of Citrus Heights will be kicking off construction of its new $22 million city hall building with a groundbreaking ceremony July 15 at the site of the new location next to the Post Office on Fountain Square Drive.
The one-hour Wednesday ceremony will begin at 10 a.m., with the community invited to “join the City of Citrus Heights to celebrate the beginning of construction on the new city hall facility,” according to a post on the City’s online calendar. The ceremony will take place at 6360 Fountain Square Dr.
The new city hall project was approved unanimously by city council members in March of this year, along with a related project to allow Dignity Health to tear down the old city hall and construct a new three-story medical office building in its place, at the corner of Fountain Square Drive and Greenback Lane.
