WATERVILLE, Maine (AP) — The city of Waterville is considering buying the building that houses the Maine city’s newspaper, the Morning Sentinel, so it could be converted into a new police station.

Waterville officials revealed the names of three sites being considered as home for the station after top police officials toured the Front Street building on Tuesday.

Mayor Dana Sennett, also an advertising account executive for the Morning Sentinel, said the police felt there was enough space at the Morning Sentinel location.

The other locations being considered are a city-owned parking lot at Head of Falls and land on Colby Circle.

Publisher Anthony Ronzio says the newspaper building has more space than the newspaper needs. If the city makes a fair offer the paper could find other space.
