This new state-of-the-art building includes secure parking for police, two elevators, an evidence lab, interview rooms, a dispatch center, and a drive-through sally port to bring people in custody into the building. The building also includes a second-floor training room and fitness center for employees and a large, open public lobby. Roof-top solar panels on the building’s roof that provides electricity back to the grid.
