By bringing first responders and critical equipment together under one roof, a new centralized facility will improve coordination and help our teams respond more quickly when every minute matters. At the same time, it will prioritize safety, privacy, and environmental responsibility.
Waiting will only increase costs. Building today will save money in the long run by reducing maintenance and rental expenses.
Tigard’s current Police and Public Works buildings are outdated and unsafe. Designed decades ago, they would crumble in a major earthquake, risking the lives of our first responders when they’re needed most. A new facility will ensure they are ready to serve, no matter the crisis.
Tigard’s population has nearly tripled since the facilities were built, and our current facilities can’t keep up. A new, combined Police and Public Works facility will support Tigard’s growing needs and future-proof our city’s services.
Investing in a new facility today will ensure that our first responders can continue to provide essential services during emergencies, meet the needs of our growing community, and protect both public safety and taxpayer dollars.
