Junction City Police cut the ribbon for their new mural in front of the Police Department building on Wednesday. Police Chief John Lamb said the mural is a statement and a matter of pride of the employees and the officers of the JCPD. "It's such a large, bold statement of our commitment to the community that we wanted to have something that everybody could see, enjoy, beautify the community."
Trish Giordano, retired police captain and current county commissioner, said the mural beautifies the southwest corner of the Police Department property at Ninth and Franklin. "Truly represents what JCPD stands for. That includes integrity, community and keeping our citizens safe." Giordano worked for the JCPD for 28 years.
Landscaping and lighting improvements at the mural will be done in the future.
