The facility also has an emergency communications training center and a 5,000 square-foot K-9 training facility with a fenced-in, outdoor training area.

"You will see the benefits of this state-of-the-art facility with top notch technology and nice-sized community rooms that are available for the community to use," Police Chief Eric English said. "This facility is very visible in the community, right off of Airport Drive, easily accessible to the public. We're no more hidden, we're right out in the open. This is truly a community police station."
