Erie broke ground this morning on a new service facility that
will house maintenance staff, equipment and materials for the town’s Public
Works and Parks departments.
The Leon A. Wurl Service Center will be located on 16.6
acres at 150 Bonnell Avenue, and will feature an 8,500 square-foot office
building and a four-acre service yard.
Erie Mayor Andrew Moore called the center “a high quality facility
ensuring it is both operationally optimized, and aesthetically pleasing to view.”
The center is named after former town administrator Leon A.
Wurl, who served from 1994-98, and is credited with paving the streets of the
historic downtown and aviation subdivision, as well as the renovation of Town Hall.
