Church addition in Shelby County among state’s new building permits
This past week, nine new building permits were approved across Alabama for construction projects exceeding $1 million. This includes a $24 million project at a church in Shelby County.
Here’s what we know about these new building permits:
Construction on Faith Presbyterian Church
The largest of this week’s building permits is for a project at Faith Presbytherian Church in Shelby County , a project that carries a $24 million price tag.
Here are a few details:
- The new 1,100-seat sanctuary will be twice the size of the current worship space
- This project involves the building of a new sanctuary, and is the largest capital project in the church’s 50 year history.
- The plan is to convert the existing sanctuary into a fellowship hall to be used for congregational gatherings, parties, receptions and community events.
- Brasfield & Gorrie is listed as the lead contractor on this project.
