Suwanee to build police substation

The City of Suwanee has contracted with a company to design a new police substation in the Suwanee Gateway area.

Construction is expected to begin as early as the end of 2011 on a 1.1-acre parcel on Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road, previously the site of a BP gas station. The facility will be approximately 7,000 square feet.

The substation will be paid for with SPLOST (penny sales tax) funds. The City will pay Atlanta-based company TSW $118,220 for design and pre-construction services.
