It brings together City and County law enforcement agencies in a facility that addresses their respective space needs.  Most importantly, this plan is advantageous to City and County taxpayers because it reduces the major renovation and relocation costs both sides would have to bear if the City were to move its entire administrative offices to Renaissance and the County had to fill the vacant space in the City-County Building.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Photos<\/strong>:<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_1_placeholder\n<p><strong>Other information handed out<\/strong>:<br \/>\nEntire presentation or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allencounty.us\/images\/stories\/commissioners\/news\/Allen_County_Proposal_Compatibility_Mode.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a><br \/>\nSpreadsheets, part 1 &#8211; part 2<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/71709.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Mayor Tom Henry announces call for referendum vote on the gaming issue during a press conference on February 27, 2009.\"\n\t\t\tclass='thickbox' rel='ee97ad9ee81d6a16de55998dbeb6d21d' data-image-id=\"199\" data-src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/71709.jpg\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/thumbs\/thumbs_71709.jpg\" data-title=\"2009\/02\/27: Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry\" data-description=\"Mayor Tom Henry announces call for referendum vote on the gaming issue during a press conference on February 27, 2009.\">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"2009\/02\/27: Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"2009\/02\/27: Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"199\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/thumbs\/thumbs_71709.jpg\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/71710.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Mayor Tom Henry shakes hands with Allen County Councilman Paul Moss after the press conference announcing his decision to seek a referendum vote on the gaming issue.
