Site work and new construction of a fire / police facility in Petaluma, California. Conceptual plans call for the construction of a fire / police facility; and for site work for a fire / police facility.

This project for the construction and siting of a new fire station to replace Fire Station No.1 will be informed by the Public Safety Facilities Assessment. It has long been understood that Fire Station No.1 does not meet the operational needs of the department. It lacks adequate space and does not accommodate a diverse workforce. This historic building has over $3 million in deferred maintenance and requires a full seismic retrofit. Additional issues with the current location at the corner of D Street and 2nd Street include challenges with traffic and circulation as well as site constraints that do not allow for expansion on the first floor. Construction would be largely funded from City Facilities Impact Fees in conjunction with a proposed infrastructure bond measure against Measure U sales tax revenues. This project is in included in the City's or County's FY 2022-2027 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). As of June 20, 2022, further details regarding design and construction have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
