Baytown police report five months into 1971 total accidents 590 down from 641 in 1970 yet injuries rose to 162 from 108 with three fatalities versus two. Major accidents numbered 101 with 489 minors in 1971. 81 majors and 1560 minors in 1970.
Plans for a $500,000 Baytown police administration building on North Main Street were outlined by Assistant Police Chief R. H. Turner. The one story 24 000 square foot facility will house jail courtroom patrol and admin areas with a computer records system and closed circuit TV to monitor the jail and exterior. The project awaits city council approval before bidding and is funded by voter approved bonds.
