Camden is taking a major step forward in citizen service with an exciting initiative that will, if approved by City Council, consolidate all City government operations into a modern, accessible downtown hub. The comprehensive project centers around the purchase of the former First Palmetto building and four contiguous properties on DeKalb Street, funded partially through the strategic sale of surplus City properties.
The transformation begins when City administrative offices relocate to their new downtown home, followed by extensive renovations to the current City Hall to create a state-of-the-art facility for the Camden Police Department. This ambitious project addresses years of operational challenges while positioning Camden as a forward-thinking municipality focused on exceptional citizen service.
Revolutionary Service Model. The Camden Police Department will benefit tremendously from this initiative, finally receiving the modern facilities it has long needed. The renovated City Hall will provide purpose-built workspace designed specifically for law enforcement operations, including professional-grade evidence storage that meets current standards and advanced records management systems.
