The Municipal Hall was built in 1929 through a joint project between the Corporation of the Village of Mission (later became the Town of Mission City) and the Corporation of the District of Mission. It was a unique building because on one half were the offices of the Village and on the other the District. It was extensively renovated and enlarged in 1954. After amalgamation in November of 1969, the offices of the present day local government were housed in this building until a new hall was opened on Stave Lake Road in 1974. The original municipal hall, at 33157 First Ave, now houses several restaurants. (November 2012 advice from Val Billesberger, Archivist, Mission Community Archives)
