925 South Main Street
Lebanon City Hall on October 21, 2006
This municipal building was built in 1928. It originally faced Maple Street and housed the fire department, jail and city recorder. Portions of this building may date from before that, but it is hard to tell. The fire department moved out in the 1970s, and the police department took their place. Today, this is Lebanon’s City Hall and Police Department. There is a small park located adjacent to City Hall. A seismic evaluation in 1994 found that the City Hall building does not meet earthquake requirements, and a visual analysis in February 2006 found significant structural deficiencies and determined that the build was not designed for the weight it is currently supporting. Additionally, municipal courts on the second floor are not handicapped accessible. A new building has since been built on the site of the Santiam School to house the police department and municipal courts, but other city offices remain in this building.
