CETA Offices To Leave City Hall For New Space
Cedar Rapids officials consider moving CETA operations from City Hall to two suites on the third floor of the SGA building at 118 Second Street SE. The move would consolidate roughly 2,000 square feet and add 1,800 feet, easing crowded conditions on the mezzanine and fourth floor. Critics question cost and need, while supporters say management would be easier with centralized space.
