Milton OKs design contract for public safety building

Milton moved one step closer Monday to constructing its first municipal building. The City Council unanimously approved a contract with Precision Planning of Lawrenceville to draw up designs for a public safety facility to be built on a 5-acre tract along Ga. 9.

City officials said the design phase of the project should take from 6-8 weeks, and construction could begin from 12-18 months later.
