Current Facility

Built: 2014
Size: 17,971 square feet
Challenges: Undersized for current staffing and lacks adequate patrol, detective, and training space.

Expand and Remodel

Modernize and expand the facility to meet operational needs, ensuring a safe and efficient environment.

Key Improvements:

  • Increase office space, meeting rooms, and locker areas.
  • Add secure storage, arrestee transport areas, and community spaces.
  • Implement sustainable, energy-efficient designs.

Cost & Financing

  • Approximate Cost Estimate: $766 per square foot (including design, construction, and furnishings).
  • Funding Considerations: 1) Certificates of Participation with annual payments over 20-30 years, avoiding tax increases, or 2) a ballot measure to gauge voters' interest in a tax increase.

Next Steps

Finalize design, engage the community, and align with Erie's future growth.
