Richfield planning a new but still modest City Hall

The current headquarters is rife with problems that a new building would solve. Pipes burst, employees can barely hear because of the buzz of machinery, and fire rigs rust prematurely because of poor ventilation. They're all reasons why next month, after years of study, Richfield's City Council is expected to vote to build a new City Hall. The old one, which dates to about 1963, has "a lot of issues," said Pam Dmytrenko, assistant to the city manager. "Plumbing, electrical, water permeating, flooding... We're beyond 'do we need a new building?' "We have high expectations for developers who come into the community. We need to meet our own standards and be a role model."
