This podcast contains comments from the June 24, 2021 College Station city council meeting. Speakers include councilwoman Elizabeth Cunha, city manager Bryan Woods, and city councilman Bob Brick.
The city of College Station's new city hall will have $1.6 million dollars of new furniture. The contract awarded at the last city council meeting is almost nine hundred thousand dollars under the $2.5 million dollar budget.
The contract not only includes the furniture, but spending $75,000 dollars to move it inside the new building.
Councilwoman Elizabeth Cunha was not successful in giving the $75,000 to non-profit agencies who would provide volunteers to do the moving. That's after city manager Bryan Woods said the city has a liability issue, even with volunteers.
Cunha also asked about what would be done with furniture that would not be moved to the new city hall. Woods said "We're still actively pursuing any way that we can either repurpose or donate or sell this furniture, so it doesn't go to a landfill".
And Woods told councilman Bob Brick that the goal is to be in the new city hall by the end of the year.
