Swinerton provided general contracting services for the construction of the Monmouth City Hall. The new two-story mass timber building provides a new home for the city’s finance, building, community development, and administration departments. The City Hall features office space and new facilities for current staff, with room to expand for future use as the city continues to grow. A prominent component of the building is the court chamber featuring ballistic walls, which was designed for council meetings, court hearings, and public meetings.

The modernized community spaces honor the area’s local natural resources and historic character with a welcoming public plaza that will support festivals and community activities. Significant site work included fill and grading of the existing site to tie in existing utilities and city streets, effortlessly integrating into the current infrastructure. Sustainable features include a photovoltaic canopy system, efficient variable refrigerant flow (VRF) mechanical system, and low carbon mass timber structure.
