The Bakersfield Police Department will have a new home in the Truxtun Tower, also known as the Bank of America building, following a move by the Bakersfield City Council to purchase the property Wednesday night.<\/p>\n
The council voted to approve an interfund loan of $12 million to be used for the purchase 1430 and 1440 Truxtun Ave., one of the tallest buildings in the city.<\/p>\n
