CITY OF NORTH PORT, FL – The City is hosting a Town Hall focusing on Police Department facility updates and needs as North Port grows. Residents are invited to City Hall at 6 p.m. Thursday, March 21, at City Hall as City leadership and NPPD staff will be available to answer questions about the current facility and the possible new police headquarters project.
The NPPD headquarters on City Hall Boulevard was built in 2006 when 109 police employees served the City’s 47,000 population. The Department now has 196 positions serving a population of nearly 90,000. NPPD responded to 89,892 calls in 2023, a 14.5% increase from the year prior.
Police staff have outgrown their current space and are exploring options to build a new headquarters off Toledo Blade Boulevard. A $122 million option is recommended by the City’s consultant and accounts for growth through 2065. The City Commission has directed City staff to explore funding options.
Those attending the Town Hall will learn more about the old facility, hear about future plans, and have the opportunity to ask questions. The presentation will also be live-streamed on YouTube.
