Police department annex funding
Summary
The city is designing a new 15,148-square-foot, two-story police annex plus a renovation of the existing police building, with IT moving in from City Hall. The $18.2 million estimate leaves a $1.2 million funding gap that could close through value engineering or the fourth-generation sales tax.

Impact analysis
About $18.2 million total, with roughly $1.2 million still to be found.
Police staff get adequate, secure space, and residents get a modern emergency operations center and multi-purpose community/training room.
If state tax cuts land hard, the city's ability to keep funding police operations could be squeezed.
