State office building bids eyed after March 23 meeting
Des Moines officials plan a March 23 committee session to advertise for bids on the state office building. While plans are set, total costs could reach 4.0 to 5.0 million, with only 2.635 million authorized. If started this summer, completion may be after 1949, with funding to follow in the next legislature. The project aims to centralize agencies now scattered in Des Moines and reduce rental costs, including savings for the liquor and tax commissions.
