City commissioners consider an 85,000 square foot police headquarters on 10 to 15 acres with cost estimates ranging 20 to 30 million dollars. A sales tax or property tax mix could fund the project, with a citywide vote likely if a sales tax is chosen, while public site proposals remain under review through May and June. Local officials seek community input before a decision, noting election timing could affect pace.
