BEDFORD – The Bedford Redevelopment Commission approved changes to the plans for the new Bedford Police Department station, set to go at the site of the previous Aldi grocery store at 2308 W. 16th St., during a meeting Monday afternoon.
The commissioner approved a change to an interior vestibule area that will see the area changed to standard aluminum storefront framing and glass, opposed to the previously selected bulletproof features.
BDP Chief Terry Moore said the change was made because he does not feel the bulletproof glass will be needed in that area, so he did not feel it was necessary to spend additional funds for it.
Members also approved a change that will extend the fencing in front of the building, adding an additional 42 feet of six-foot tall stone molded fence to plans. Bedford Mayor Sam Craig said the added fencing will be placed along the property’s edge on the North side.
