Senoia's future

could hold a new library and a new two-story police station.

Those are just

two of the items discussed Wednesday afternoon during the city's planning

retreat at the City Park.

City Administrator

Leonard Thompson said the city was still trying to work on getting exact

cost estimates for the facilities, but pegged the library's cost at $1.5

million. The library would be built on a vacant lot on Senoia's Main Street.

Coweta County

has also expressed interest in building satellite libraries around the

county, but Mayor Joan Trammell said it could be 10 years before the county

got around to building a library in the city.

"They

said the first library would be in Sharpsburg. I'm not going to hold my

breath to wait for them to fund it," she said.

The city is

also looking at building a two-story police station behind the present

City Hall. The new structure would have a meeting room on the first floor

to hold court and City Council meetings. Many of the administrative offices

would be located upstairs.

Trammell indicated

the new buildings would fit into the city's historic flavor and did not

give a timeline for when the buildings would be constructed.

The city must

first identify all elements in its capital improvement project and then

submit it to the Department of Community Affairs for approval. Some of

the projects' funding could come from impact fees that the city is discussing

implementing.
