Broomfield Police Building Expansion

Project Background:

The Broomfield Police Department is headquartered at 7 DesCombes Drive where it occupies half the building (35,424 SF).  The other half is occupied by Broomfield Combined Courts.  The existing facility is less than half the necessary size to accommodate current and anticipated operations. A new building is proposed immediately west of the current building, at the southeast corner of E. 3rd Avenue and DesCombes Drive where the solar panels are currently located.

Project Information:

The proposed building is approximately 84,000 SF, and is proposed to be located at the southeast corner of DesCombes Drive and 3rd Avenue.  The secure parking lot will be expanded, providing additional spaces for police fleet and personal vehicles. An additional vehicular gate will provide another entry/exit point onto Descombes Drive, allowing for quicker response times and redundancy in egress from the secure lot. A secure fence will be extended around the perimeter of the parking lot, providing additional physical and visual security for officers and staff.
