Designed as a multi-purpose facility, it integrates fire suppression functions with emergency management operations to improve regional response. The building includes fire station operations, a dedicated EOC, a backup dispatch center, and IT offices underscoring the city’s commitment to reliable communication and coordination during emergencies.
