Grand Forks Police Department remodel will create more space, room to grow, chief says
- The Grand Forks Police Department is remodeling to gain more space and improve workflow, with the project focusing on the second floor first.
- Relocation of the county sheriff's office freed space for GFPD to expand and consolidate patrol operations on the first floor.
- Construction involves replacing plumbing, wiring, and HVAC, with new carpet and paint to follow after structural changes.
- The project aims to create more usable space, better workstations, and additional conference rooms for patrol officers.
- Officials expect the second floor remodel to finish by summer, followed by a first-floor project to complete by early 2027.
- The GFPD building has hosted multiple agencies and will reconfigure space to reduce disruption during renovations.
- Grand Forks Police Chief Jason Freedman emphasized the remodel will allow growth and better utilization of the building.
- The project affects the building that previously housed GFPD, PSAP, and the county sheriff's office, now reorganized for efficiency.
- Chief Freedman noted the remodel will allow for a longer-term expansion as staffing grows.
