Agenda Number: -S
TO: Dwight D. Johnson, City Manager
FROM: Craig C. Gerdes, Chief of Police
SUBJEC : EXPANSION NEEDS FOR THE PUBLIC SAFETY BUILDING
DATE: May 8, 2003 for the May 13, 2003 Council Study Session
1. ACTION REQUESTED: City Council discuss the building expansion committee initial
report and give further direction to staff.
2. BACKGROUND: The Plymouth City Council established its 2003 Goals and Priorities at
its March 11, 2003 Council Meeting. Among them were a number of Public Safety
initiatives, including reviewing expansion needs for the Public Safety building. A committee
was created to begin an internal discussion. The scope for the building expansion committee
was to study the need for an enclosed, heated garage and additional storage with an
opportunity to assess future space needs of the department. Their report is attached.
In general, the committee looked at individual areas of need and then prioritized those needs.
The committee did not investigate or detail architectural feasibility of the recommended
expansion; nor was the committee charged with determining other possible resolution to
space needs. For example, electronic scanning of current documents instead of increasing
amount of storage space. The committee did discuss the possible benefits of incorporating
needs together or utilizing the space or the area that would be vacated if new space were
constructed. As part of the committee's process they toured other police departments in the
metropolitan area. In some cases, Council Members, City Manager, and/or the Assistant City
Manager were able to join the tours. A number of Council Members also toured the current
facility.
3. RECOMMENDATION: The City Council provide direction to the staff regarding building
expansion priorities and direct the staff to contract with an architectural firm to develop more
detail regarding expansion options and costs.
BUILDING NEEDS ASSESSMENT
POLICE DEPARTMENT / FIRE ADMINISTRATION
MAY 1ST, 2003
FORWARD
The Plymouth City Council established its 2003 goals and priorities at their March l
lcn
Council meeting. Among them, were a number of Public Safety initiatives, including
reviewing expansion needs for the Public Safety Building. The Police Chief established a
committee to look at this need. The committee includes Lt. Dan Plekkenpol, Sgt. Scott
Kleist, Sgt. Curtis Smith, Sgt. Larry Holzerland, Sgt. John Sigfhnius, Officer Jeff
Swiatkiewicz, Officer Brain Jeska, Detective Jon Christianson, Detective Scott Kroeger
Office Support Representative Carole Langston and Fire Chief Rick Kline. This initial
report is being presented to the Police Chief for his consideration in preparation for the
upcoming City Council Study Session scheduled for May 13, 2003.
The scope for the building expansion committee was to study the need for an enclosed,
heated garage and additional storage with an opportunity to assess future space needs of
the department. The catalyst initiating this process is the definitive lack of storage space
in the building. While the Public Safety Building is only ten years old we are already
outgrowing the facility. During our study we discovered several other work areas and
offices that are in need of expansion.
The committee based their decisions on the current need for additional space coupled
with the future growth of our department with the proposed build out of the city. The
Director of Community Development in the City of Plymouth Anne Hurlburt was
consulted to project the population growth by 2020. The population projection was set at
75,000 based on figures from the Metropolitan Council. The committee also researched
the projected growth of needed additional employees by 2020. It was determined that 14
patrol officers, 1 detective, a crime analyst, a full time property/evidence room manager,
and three additional clerical positions to staff the front counter 24 hours / seven days a
week would be needed. This increase could result in additional needed space.
The committee prioritized the importance of the need for the spaces mentioned in this
report. The separate areas of need were placed into four categories. Priority one: these
are space needs of our current facility that require expansion or areas that are not
currently incorporated into our building, in which the committee feels are a definite need
at the present time. Priority two: these are space needs that the committee feels are very
important to the daily operation of the Police Department in the very near future, that
being 3-5 years. Priority three: these are spaces the committee views as definite needs
for the future, but the department can effectively operate without at this time. Priority
four: these spaces are categorized as areas that we have a need, but are deemed only as
nice to have. Workspaces we addressed are listed separately in this report designed with
current information about the area, a comparison with the seven police facilities that we
had toured and a recommendation for expansion or improvement of that space for our
building. Contained within some of the recommendation sections are explanations of the
benefits of incorporating needs together or utilizing the space of the area that would be
vacated if a new space were constructed.
The information contained in this report is meant to inform the City of Plymouth's
Mayor, Council Members, City Manager, Assistant City Manager and the Police Chief of
the committees view of space expansion needs to better serve the department and the
community.

PRIORITY ONE NEEDS
Plymouth Police Garage
The building committee determined that there is a need for an enclosed, heated garage
facility. This improvement would enhance the ability for officers to respond to
emergency calls for service during inclement weather, without having to scrape and
defrost windows or jump dead batteries. This facility would also add to the security of
police vehicles and their enclosed equipment. The garage would be a benefit to the
security of the officers preparing the squads for their next tour of duty. The garage would
eliminate the need to move all the squad cars out of the current lot after a snowfall so the
lot can be plowed.
The committee formulated a needs assessment of a garage facility for the current date and
extended the concept twenty years into the future. Based on the population projection of
75,000 residents by 2020 14 additional officers need to be added to staffing and 1
additional detective. This growth in needed personnel should be reflected in the plans for
a parking facility and specialized storage areas.
CURRENT GARAGE PARKING NEEDS:
15 Patrol Squads
2 Canine Squads
1 Reserve Squad
2 Emergency Response Units
1 Speed Trailer
2 Community Service Officer Trucks
4 Administrative Vehicles
8 Investigative / Liaison Vehicles
1 DARE unmarked vehicle
3 Fire Department Administrative Units
2 Fence Enclosed Stalls for Large Pieces of Evidence
2 Stalls for Car Wash / K-9 Wash Area
1 Fence Enclosed Stall for Vehicle Supplies
2 Fence Enclosed Stalls for First Aid Supplies
TOTAL: 46 STALLS
PROJECTED GARAGE PARKING NEEDS:
The boldface descriptions indicate an increase in needed vehicle space for future
expansion.
20 Patrol Squads
2 K-9 Squads
1 Reserve Unit
2 Emergency Response Units
1 Speed Trailer
2 Community Service Officer Trucks
5 Administrative Vehicles
1 DARE Vehicle
12 Investigative / Liaison Vehicles
1 Investigative Bait / Surveillance Vehicle
5 Fire Administrative Units
3 Fence Enclosed Stalls for Large Pieces of Evidence/Property
2 Stalls for Squad / K-9 Wash
1 Fence Enclosed Stall for Vehicle Supplies
2 Fence Enclosed Stalls for First Aid Supplies
TOTAL 60 STALLS
LOCAL COMPARISON OF POLICE GARAGE FACILITIES:
Maple Grove P.D. 35 Stalls
Blaine P.D 6 Stall heated garage for on duty squads and a 60
stall unheated facility for off-duty squads and other
police and city vehicles
Bloomington P.D. 58 Stalls
RECOMMENDATIONS:
A 60 stall heated enclosed parking facility for police department work vehicles and
additional storage areas would meet the needs of the above projections. The following
areas could be incorporated into the garage facility: Emergency Response Unit storage,
property / evidence storage for large items, first aid supply storage, patrol vehicle
equipment storage, general patrol equipment storage(duty bags, radios with chargers.
flashlights with chargers cell phones and chargers squad car video microphone with
chargers, speed detection lasers and tint meters) By incorporating these spaces into the
garage new options for space use would open for the following. The ERU storage room
would now be empty. The patrol equipment / armory room would now be empty. The
cabinets used for first aid storage in the lunchroom would be empty and the oxygen
supply area could be moved out of the sally port allowing additional room. The sally
ports and dog kennels would not have to be used for large evidence storage. The vehicle
supply area for squads in the sally port would be empty. More space would be available
in assigned lockers without having a large duty bag inside. The ERU Response Vehicles
could be parked next to the ERU equipment room for a more efficient deployment. The
ERU ambulance could be moved out of Fire Station 3 allowing more space for Fire
Department vehicles.
Clerical Storage Area
The building committee has determined that a larger file storage area is necessary for
smooth and accurate filing of our records.
CURRENT:
The storage area is now divided into two separate rooms. The current files for the last
three years are housed on the first floor adjacent to the clerical workstation and is
I Oftx 1 6f in size. The reports in this room are stored in files on steel shelving. There is
very little room to move about when two employees are obtaining files. The archived
files are temporarily stored in a conference room on the second floor located in the Fire
Department Administration hallway. The size of the room is 20ftxl5ft. The files are
stored in large cardboard banker's boxes on eight -foot high storage shelves. The space
between the shelves is 2 1/2 feet making it difficult for one person to move about freely
to remove boxes from the shelves. Assistance is often needed to move heavy boxes high
up on the shelves. There are several boxes of records stacked on the floor because there
is no more room left on the shelves. There is a complete year's set of records stored in
bankers boxes stacked on the floor of the current records room on the first floor because
there is no room left in the archive room. Documents become bent or crushed over time
based on the manner they are stored in. The Fire Department has a need to store
documents but is unable to use the existing file storage areas because it is fully utilized by
the Police Department. Total square footage is 460.
COMPARISONS:
Eagan Police Department:
The current records file room is located on the second floor adjacent to the clerical work
area and is 25ftxl5ft in size. The room houses a Lectriever System and a Space Saver
System for the efficient use of space. The archives storage is on the first floor and is
approximately 12ftx8ft in size. The total space is 471 square ft.
Bloomington Police Department:
The storage room has a Lectriever System that contains twenty-two, 7 foot carriages to
hold 2 years of files. After two years all reports are then scanned. Bloomington also has
an off site storage area for archived reports. The size of the archive area is 390 square
feet.
Saint Louis Park Police Department:
The current records file room is 20ftxl5ft and no Lectriever System. They are starting to
scan files for electronic storage. The archive storage room is 8ftx15ft with no storage
system. The total size of storage is 420 square Feet.
Maple Grove Police Department:
The storage room is divided into two separate areas, the current files and archived files.
The room is adjacent to the clerical work area. The current file area has a Lectriver
System with a second to be added in 2004 and the archive area has a Space Saver System.
The total size is 600 square feet.
Blaine Police Department:
They do not have a separate file room. They keep three years of records in 6 file
cabinets, which are located in the clerical workstation area, which is 4000ft. The
reports that are older than 3 years are placed onto microfilm. They are going to start
scanning or imaging their old reports soon and discontinue the microfilming.
Coon Rapids Police Department:
They have two storage rooms in the clerical section. The main room is 215 square feet
and houses 3 years of the most current reports. The second room is 90 square feet and it
houses reports on microfilm and older files stored in bankers boxes. Total area is 303
square feet.
Brooklyn Center Police Department:
They have one clerical storage room, which is 25ftx15ft in size. At this time they are
prepared to purge ten years of files to create more room. Total size is 375 square feet.
RECOMMENDATION:
The building committee has determined a need for a clerical file storage area of 1800
square feet to accommodate the current and future use by the Police and Fire
Departments. The total square footage is larger than the departments that have been
studied based on the recommendation of Captain Paul Berndt of Maple Grove Police. He
stated that if he could plan it over he would have made the storage area 1800 square feet
because they will run out of room soon. The Captain has designed two police facilities
over the past thirty years. At this time our department prepares written documentation of
all calls for service, which adds to the needed space for storage. Not all police
departments write reports on all calls for service. The suggestion would be to separate
this room into a current file storage area with a Lectriever System and an archive file
storage area with a Space Saver System. A copy, fax, report preparation area can be
incorporated into the storage area. Our existing building is ten years old and yet we have
completely run out of storage space. At initial assessment the recommendation for
storage space may seem large but history has shown us that this additional space would
be a premium asset in 20 years. Another option for archived records would be a secured
off site storage location.
If a new clerical storage area was constructed the second floor archive storage room
would be open to use for the original intended purpose of a conference room for Fire
Department Administration. The room next to the 2nd floor archive room would also be
empty because it is used as overflow storage for archived records. The existing current
file room attached to the clerical section would also now be open for space use.
Emergency Response Unit Room
This building committee has determined a need for a larger storage facility for tactical
and personal equipment pertaining to the ERU team.
CURRENT:
The current size of our ERU storage room is approximately 10' x 9' for a total of 90
square feet. The 12 members of Plymouth's ERU team share this room. The room
contains a large gun safe, which securely stores the majority of the team's weapons,
although some weapons must remain out of the safe because it is not large enough to
store all of the team's weapons. There are 17 cubbyholes, 12 of which are used for
individual team members to store equipment such as their tactical vests. The remaining 5 -
cubbyholes are used to store miscellaneous team items. Each team member stores the
rest of their equipment in a large duffel bag. There are several items that are placed on the
floor in the center of the room because of the lack of space.
COMPARISONS:
Eagan Police Department:
Eagan PD has a separate 20' x 19' locker room for a total size of 308 square feet. Each
team member has a separate locker in this room in addition to their personal lockers.
There is a grease board on the wall and a large grease table that members can sit around
and write diagrams onto. In addition to the separate locker room, Eagan PD has a sally
port dedicated to ERU equipment storage. In this sally port, they store a large trailer that
each member stores their weapons, helmets, tactical vests, and flashlights, ECT. This
trailer is brought to each emergency scene (similar to our ERU vehicle.)
Bloomington Police Department:
Bloomington PD issues each ERU member 2 double lockers inside of their locker room.
These lockers are used to store the majority of their team member's equipment.
This department also has a 19' x 11' ERU storage room containing a grease board for a
total size of 209 square feet.
Bloomington PD also has 2 sally ports that they park their 2 ERU vehicles in, which also
contains a place to clean their weapons.
Maple Grove Police Department:
Maple Grove PD has a 25' x 10' storage room for a total size of 250 square feet,
attached to their underground garage. This room contains a space saving shelving system
to store equipment. Their ERU vehicles are parked next to this room inside of the
underground garage.
Saint Louis Park Police Department:
Saint Louis Park PD issues each team member an additional half locker to store his or her
ERU equipment in. There is an additional small storage room dedicated to ERU
equipment. No dimensions available.
Blaine & Coon Rapids Police Departments:
These departments do not have ERU teams. Covered by Anoka County.
Brooklyn Center Police Department:
Brooklyn Center PD issues each team member an additional double locker to store his or
her equipment. The remainder of their equipment is stored in their ERU van.
RECOMMENDATION:
The building committee has found a need for a larger area for Plymouth's ERU team
members to store individual equipment and additional space to store ERU team
equipment. If our team does not increase in size as our department grows, we would need
a 20' x 20' storage room, for a total of 400 square feet. This room should contain space
saving storage shelving large enough to store individual team member's tactical vests
along with departmental equipment. One wall inside of this room should contain secure
wall gun racks (similar to the wall storage racks for our MP -5's in our armory.) This
would eliminate the bulky weapons safe and allow the weapons to dry after use in wet or
damp weather, yet still remain secure. In addition to this storage room, we feel it is a
necessity to issue each team member a second double locker in the locker room to store
the majority of each team member's smaller ERU equipment.
If this new space was incorporated into the garage facility the existing ERU storage room
attached to the roll call room would be open for optional space uses.
Property / Evidence Room Storage
The building committee has determined a need for a larger property / evidence room to
ensure the accurate storage of evidence for criminal cases and the safe keeping of found
property.
CURRENT:
The property storage area of this room is 23ft x 13 ft with 3 shelving units that are 14ft
long and 8ft high. These shelves have various sized cubicle storage bins to accommodate
large and small items. These shelves are completely full. The area of the property
storage space is 299 square feet. There is a secured vault room attached to the property
storage room that is 3ft x 5ft or 15 square feet. The vault is used to store narcotics and
handguns. There are shelves built into this room to store the items on. This room is
actually a closet and is completely full of evidence. The long guns are kept in the
property room area because of the lack of room in the vault. There is an office /
preparation area that is 15ft x 5ft or 75 square feet. This area houses a small desk and an
8 -foot preparation counter. There is no computer in the room. The property manager
goes to different location in the building to complete needed information checks. The
property section has a refrigerator to store evidence that needs to be kept at a lower
temperature. There are 21 various sized locker doors in the hallway to place property
into evidence. The size of the property room is 389 square feet.
COMPARISONS:
Eagan Police Department:
The property section is 40ft x 26ft or 1040 square feet. Eagan uses a bar coding system
to keep track of all the incoming and outgoing property. There is a separate property
processing room that is 19ft x 14ft or 266 square feet. This processing room is used for
the temporary storage of newly introduced items and a refrigerator. The vault is a
separate room used to store narcotics and weapons. There is a secured garage stall used
to hold large items. There are lockers built into the wall of this garage area so items can
be introduced into evidence. The total size of the property room is 1306 square feet
without adding the unknown size of the vault room.
Bloomington Police Department:
The property room is 47ft x 35ft or 1645 square feet. The processing room is 30ft x 19ft
or 570 square feet. The vault room for narcotics and weapons is 30ft x 19ft or 570 square
feet. The total size is 2785 square feet.
Saint Louis Park Police Department:
The main property room is 30ft x 33ft or 990 square feet. There is a l Oft x 15 ft evidence
processing and evidence admittance room with 20 built in evidence lockers. The vault
for narcotics and weapons is 1Oft x1Oft or 100 square feet. There is a separate
workstation / office with a computer and a phone. There is a set of double steel doors
leading to a large fenced area in the garage that holds large inventoried items. Total size
of this room is 1090 square feet.
Maple Grove Police Department:
The main property storage room is approximately 60ft x 30ft. This area has the Space
Saver Storage System, which create five separate aisles. The evidence receiving room
and property custodian office is 500 square feet. There is also a separate vault for
narcotics and weapons that measures l Oft x 15ft. They will be receiving a refrigerated
property intake system shortly. Total square footage is 650.
Blaine Police Department:
The main property room is 28ft x 34ft. in size with the Space Saver Storage System.
There is also an 8ft x 19ft area for preparation and to store large property items. This area
was designed for people to back up their vehicles to unload this property. There is also an
8ft x 8ft vault to store narcotics and weapons. The total size is 1168 square feet.
Coon Rapids Police Department:
The main property storage area is 21ft x 28ft. There is a small office area within this
section that is 8ft x 7ft. The evidence intake / preparation area is 13ft x 8ft. There is an
additional room for storing large pieces of evidence in an area, which is 22ft x 25ft. The
Coon Rapids staff made the comment that the property room is too small. The total size
is 1298 square feet.
Brooklyn Center Police Department: The main property room is 36ft x 24ft with bullet
resistant windows positioned high on the wall to let in natural light. The shelving is
stationary. There is a set of double doors that exit outside. They use a bar coding system
to categorize the property. Total size is 864 square feet.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The committee believes that the main storage room area should be 50ft x 40ft to include
an office area and a preparation area with cabinets. The vault room for narcotics and
weapons should be l Oft x 15 ft. The property section should have the Space Saver
Storage System to maximize the usage of space. The total area requested is 2150
square feet.
If a new area were created for evidence and property the current space would be vacated
for optional use. The Fire Department currently stores arson evidence at Fire Station #2
in a 10' x 12' caged area. This evidence could be stored in the new property room saving
space for the Fire Department. This would also give the arson evidence a more secure
legal chain of custody for the investigation.
Patrol Equipment Room/Armory Storage
Eli :7:7 BWI IG
PATROL EQUIPMENT ROOM
The current room, located off of the roll call room, is of adequate size for the current
needs of the department. There are 5 separate cabinets with electrical outlets in them for
the charging of flashlights, radios and batteries. Although the size of the room is
adequate, there are not enough outlet spaces for every officer to charge their radio and/or
flashlight. Another flaw in the design of this room is its current location. Problems arise
from trying to conduct efficient roll calls with officers filing in and out of the roll call
room to gain access to the equipment room to store flashlights, radios and other
equipment that officers may use. An equipment room area separate from the roll call
room is greatly needed.
In looking at other departments in the area, it appeared that officer's lockers had
electrical outlets in each locker, usually a 4 -outlet receptacle for charging of their
equipment and batteries. If current or future lockers were equipped with electrical
outlets, then the current size of the equipment room would be fine.
ARMORY
The current armory size is capable of functioning for use now and in the future. There is
plenty of room to store the weapons used and an area to clean these weapons if need be.
In talking to the Range Master, Officer Dave Groth, if the department were ever to switch
to AR -15's to replace the current MP -5's, a larger armory, perhaps twice the size would
be adequate. Taking up the space from the current equipment room could use this size
since a door separates these 2 rooms. Of course, this would only work if there was a
separate equipment room and/or lockers were equipped with electrical outlets.
RECOMMENDATIONS
One recommendation would be to keep the current size of the rooms if current or future
lockers had electrical outlets in them. The number one complaint with the room is its
location and the ability to conduct efficient roll calls. It would be the recommendation of
the committee to have this area and room away from the roll call area. A second
recommendation would be to incorporate this storage area into the proposed garage with
electrical outlets and a larger designed size to add the storage of patrol on -duty supply
bags and defensive tactics equipment. If this room was moved or constructed into a
garage facility the vacant space could be used for locker room expansion or other
optional use.
Investigative Offices / Major Case Room
In assessing current and future needs for investigations, the current area has no room for
expansion of equipment or personnel. The cubicle concept is not efficient or effective for
investigations due to the privacy that is needed for dictation, interviews, and/or recording
phone calls.
CURRENT:
The investigative section is comprised of one room where there are six cubicle
workstations. There is a supervisor office, a clerical office, an equipment room, two
interview rooms and a conference room.
The investigators are in one room that is 26'x20' or 520 square feet. Each workspace is a
cubicle 6'x9'. There is no room for extra chairs. Dictation must be done in another room
due to no privacy. It is difficult to tape record phone calls due to the background noise of
other investigators.
The supervisor's office is 10'x 11'. There is one filing cabinet, which is inadequate. There
are two chairs, but no room for seating during reviews or private conferences. This office
is too small.
The clerical office is 10'x 12' with two doors at opposite ends of the room. There is no
room for files.
The interview rooms are Tx 11'. These are adequate for their purpose, however one is
being used to office the reserves.
The conference room is 12'x20'. It is also used as an AN room. The conference room
would be large enough for just investigators to meet, however often times investigators,
school resource officers, two sergeants and a lieutenant are part of weekly meetings. This
room would not be big enough. The size would be large enough for a major case room,
however could not be secured because of the access needed to the AV equipment. The
library is used for these meetings.
The equipment room is 12'xT. Currently all cabinets are full. There is no cabinet space
big enough for some equipment causing it to be put on the floor. The width of the floor is
4 feet. With this equipment on the floor there is no walk space. Plugs are placed poorly
and currently zip strips are used.
All copying is done on the first floor clerical area. A smaller copy machine is sometimes
used in the copy room of fire administration. Total square feet is 1141.

RECOMMENDATION:
The recommendations for the investigative division requires more space and strategic
placing. Clearly having individual investigator offices would benefit the division's
efficiency and effectiveness. The committee recommends 10'x13' size offices for
investigators and their Sgt.
Major case/conference room should be 20'x20' with large grease board with
TV/VCR/DVD capabilities.
The equipment room should be 16'x20'. This could be used as an AN room as well.
Interview rooms should be 10'x11' and all equipped with audio/video capabilities.
For future expansion as the population grows and the demand for services increases 10-
20 year projections would require at least one additional investigator. The staff increase
would require additional office space.
The configuration of the investigative section is crucial to its efficiency. This comparison
is looking at overall needed space, not how to configure this space.
The estimated space needed for future needs would require approximately 2480 square
feet.
If a new investigative offices and space were constructed the existing investigator office
and clerical space would be open for other optional uses.
PRIORITY TWO NEEDS
Locker Rooms
The building committee has discovered that we have a strong need for additional locker space for
officers and support staff.
CURRENT:
The current Plymouth PD men's locker room contains 66 full-sized lockers. There are 3 lockers
that are currently not being used by officers. Three lockers are designated for reserve officer
equipment, three lockers for explorer equipment, three lockers for ERU equipment and 13 half -
lockers are used by Police Reserves.
The women's locker room contains 17 full-sized lockers. There are no lockers available at this
time. Two of the lockers are designated for reserve officers and one locker is used for explorers.
There are 4 half -lockers that are designated for clerical.
One concern expressed by a female officer was that as the locker room door to the hallway is
opened, anyone walking past can see female officers standing in front of the sinks/mirror. There
was also a concern about the janitors closet being inside the women's locker room.
Currently there are a total of 83 lockers.
COMPARISONS:
Brooklyn Center Police Department:
The men's locker room has 67 lockers and women's has 33 lockers. They have a small area
where officers can hang their ballistic vests to dry, however, it doesn't look very good because
the vests are out in the open. They also have an area where officers can polish their shoes and
they have an electric shoeshine machine. They have 2 showers in the men's locker room.
Eagan Police Department:
The men's locker room has 62 lockers and women's has 17 lockers. They have no room for
expansion. Their locker room is full.
Maple Grove Police Department:
60'X40' men's locker room. Room contains 70 very large lockers and 3 shower stalls. Windows
near the ceiling which allow natural light. The room also has a phone and a wall clock. The
women's locker room is 30'X40' and has 36 lockers. Both rooms have moveable stools as
opposed to stationary benches. The wall separating the men and women's locker rooms is
moveable, which would allow for adjustment in future years.
Coon Rapids Police Department:
The men's locker room contains 82 lockers similar in size to ours. The women's locker room has
21 lockers. Both rooms contain a telephone.
Blaine Police Department:
The men's locker room has 56 large lockers and 20 small ones. The women's locker room has
12 large lockers.
Bloomington Police Department:
Men's locker room has 144 lockers and women's has 35. There are two styles of lockers. They
have tall doublewide lockers or short wide lockers with boot storage under a bench. The lockers
all contain electrical outlets. The women's locker room is 670 square feet with an additional 290
square feet for toilets and showers for a total size of 960 square feet. The men's locker room is
2180 square feet with an additional 450 square feet for toilets and showers for a total size of
2630 square feet.
St. Louis Park Police Department:
The men's locker room contains 75 lockers and measures 35"x20', also included are three shower
stalls, two urinals and two toilets. The women's locker room contains 26 lockers and a shower.
Lockers have electrical outlets. SWAT members get an additional %2 locker for storage. There
were phones in both men's and women's locker rooms.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
In evaluating current needs, the obvious one is space. With population and staffing projections,
there will need to be an increase in available lockers in both men's and women's locker rooms. It
would be a great benefit to include additional lockers for each ERU member to store individual
equipment.
When other factors are considered, space within the lockers is lacking, as is functionality.
Currently, officers are storing equipment such as flashlights and radios in the equipment room
off roll call. Electrical outlets would allow officers to keep their equipment in their locker,
which would alleviate the space shortage in the equipment room. It would also allow officers to
secure their equipment.
One method of improving communication within the building would also be to include phones
inside the locker room. A "red phone" and a phone with an outside line would be very helpful,
especially due to the fact that the building is not staffed 24 hours and reaching someone within
the building without having to get on the radio is difficult.
A couple of other minor improvements include eliminating the benches and replacing them with
stools. Stools can be moved and take up less space. There is a stool design that makes it easier
for a person to polish shoes while sitting on the stool. A small area to polish shoes could also be
created where clean up from polish could be made easier by laying paper down on the surface or
using a surface conducive to cleaning polish. Currently, officers polish shoes on the only surface
available - the benches. Inevitably, the benches are smeared with polish, which can get on other
clothing. Hair/hand dryers were also seen in a couple of the locker rooms that were visited. This
could eliminate some of the paper waste from hand washing as well as double as a hair dryer if
the showers were utilized. A second toilet in the locker room would also be helpful.
We are have found a need for 28 lockers for the women's area and 96 lockers for the men's area.
The total amount of lockers needed would be 124. This would be an increase of 41 lockers.
The addition of electrical outlets for officers to charge their radios is one option the other would
be to incorporate electrical outlets into a patrol equipment room designed into a garage facility,
which would give more space into the lockers for equipment.
Supervisor Offices
The building committee has determined a need for a larger workspace area for the Patrol
Sergeants, a separate on duty Sergeant's office and an improved office for the Sergeant of
Community and Schools.
CURRENT:
Seven Patrol Sergeants currently work out of a 21' x 16' irregular shaped office with four
shared desks. Four file cabinets and two computer stations are shared among the seven
Sergeants. Due to the shared nature of the room, there is no privacy for individual
conversations vital to effective management. There are also no other rooms in the patrol
area that afford needed privacy such as small conference rooms.
The Community/School Sergeant currently utilizes an 8' x 16' room that was originally
designed as an emergency management storage area. Due to a door leading to the
training room, sound often interferes with use of this office space.
The Community Service Officer Supervisor area consists of a loft x loft cubicle space
with five-foot high walls. This area is positioned in the clerical section reducing the
amount of space they have. This cubicle is not conducive to private conversations with
subordinates.
COMPARISONS:
Eagan Police Department:
Two Patrol Sergeants are assigned to each of four offices 10' x 13' in size. Offices are
assigned so the two Sergeants are not on duty at the same time. No on -duty Sergeant
office. Total of 520 sq. ft.
Bloomington Police Department:
Two Patrol Sergeants are assigned to each of four 10' x 16' offices. A separate office is
provided for an Administrative Sergeant. No on -duty Sergeant office. Total of 800 sq.
ft.
Saint Louis Park Police Department:
A single 50' x 50' room provides space for six individual cubicles for Patrol Sergeants.
An administrative Sergeant has an individual office as does the on -duty Sergeant. Total
of approximately 2800 sq. ft.
Maple Grove Police Department:
Two sergeants are assigned to each of four 20' x 20' offices. There is an on -duty
Sergeant office and an Administrative Sergeant office each 15' x 15'. Total of 2050 sq.
ft.
Blaine Police Department:
Two Patrol Sergeants share offices that have room for expansion to three Sergeants per
office. Size of each room was not specified.
Brooklyn Center Police Department:
Each Sergeant has an individual office and an on -duty Sergeant office is provided on the
first floor. Sizes of each office were not determined.
RECOMMENDATION:
The committee has determined a need for a workspace area large enough to
accommodate eight workstations for the Patrol Sergeants. These workstations can consist
of separate cubicles. There is a definite need for an on -duty Sergeant office so the
supervisors can meet with subordinates in privacy during a shift.
Individual offices of the approximate size of 15' x 15' should be provided for the
administrative sergeant and the Community/School Sergeant.
There should be an individual office for the Community Service Officer Supervisor 15ft
x 15 ft in size.
If a new supervisor workspace area were created the current Sergeant's office would be
vacated and could be converted into other needed space mentioned throughout this report.
The cubicle area occupied by the Community Service Supervisor would now be open for
the clerical section to expand. The Community and Schools Supervisors office on the
second floor would be vacant and could be used again as an Emergency Operations
Center office for which it was originally designed.
DARE & Crime Prevention/Fire Education
Storage
The building committee has found the need to expand the size of the current DARE /
Crime Prevention storage room.
CURRENT:
The D.A.R.E. storage room would be adequate if it were not being shared with Crime
Prevention/Education. This room is 18'X8'. Crime Prevention/Education would need a
room about twice that size. Due to the large items stored by Crime Prevention/ Fire
Education (i.e. baby seats, t -shirts, literature, mass mailings, bike helmets and educational
props) it would be necessary for this storage room to be near the Crime Prevention and
Education office. There are crime prevention items that are stored in other locations and
off site due to the fact there is inadequate space in this existing room.
RECOMMENDATION:
The committee believes that D.A.R.E. and Crime Prevention could share one storage
room if the size was approximately 36"x26' or 936 square feet.
School & Community Services
The building committee has determined that the school and community services need
more room.
F 1 WW
The current size for the school and community services area is 31ft x 13ft. There are four
cubicles in the room. Each cubicle accommodates one to five officers. There are three
Dare Officers in one cubicle and five School Resource Officers and in another cubicle.
The School Resource Officers share the cubicle with Auto Theft Prevention. The reserve
unit is in one of the investigator interview rooms. The size of this room is 7ft x 1 lft.
RECOMMENDATION:
The building committee is recommending that there should be an individual office for
Crime Free Multi -Housing/ Crime Prevention Officer. The room should be
approximately l Oft x 13 ft to provide adequate space and privacy.
The committee has determined a need for a larger Reserve Officer / Explorer office. A
space about 10'x 13' would be adequate. The existing room is adequate for now but in
the future it would benefit to have a larger room.
PRIORITY THREE NEEDS
Fitness / Defensive Tactics Room
This building committee has determined a need for a fitness / defensive tactics room to
allow employees a place to exercise, store defensive tactics equipment and perform in-
service defensive tactics training to new and existing officers.
CURRENT:
Currently the City of Plymouth does not have this type of room. The city does have a
small exercise room on the second floor of Fire Station #3, but this area is extremely
small and contains obsolete exercise equipment. Due to these conditions, city employees
rarely use this exercise room. As of April 1", 2003 the City of Plymouth no longer has an
incentive program in place, which allows employees the opportunity to supplement the
growing costs of a fitness club membership.
Currently defensive tactics training for new recruits is performed in the training room
located on the first floor of Fire Station #3. Once all of the tables are moved out of the
room, this room is big enough to perform the necessary techniques, but is not equipped
with the necessary features, such as mats secured to the floor, to perform the numerous
take downs and ground fighting techniques that are taught. The defensive tactics
equipment is currently stored in a variety of locations within the Police Department and
Fire Station #3 due to the lack of storage space. Every year the officers spend a day in St.
Paul at the Law Enforcement Training Center to perform in -progress scenario training
and defensive tactics because our building does not have the amount of room necessary to
incorporate this training.
COMPARISONS:
Eagan Police Department:
Eagan PD has a 40' x 30' exercise / DT room for a total of 1200 square feet. This room
includes a free weight system, universal weight machines, cardio machines, wall mounted
TV & VCR and mats on the floor for DT training. Officers are allowed to work out on -
duty three times per week for one and a half hours per work out. Officers are also allowed
to cash in unused sick time for cash to pay for a membership at a fitness center. This is a
police only facility.
Bloomington Police Department:
Bloomington PD has a 40' x 30' exercise only room for a total of 1200 square feet.
Although this room was not furnished at the time of our tour, it is believed this room will
contain state of the art work out equipment that can be accessed by any city employee.
Maple Grove Police Department:
Maple Grove PD does not have an exercise room.
Saint Louis Park Police Department:
Saint Louis Park PD does not have an exercise room, but the city pays a portion of
employee's membership fees.
Blaine Police Department:
Blaine PD has a 43' x 38' defensive tactics room for a total of 1634 square feet. This is
a multi-purpose room in which the tables fit into a closet and contains storage for mats
and other defensive tactics equipment.
Coon Rapids Police Department:
Coon Rapids PD has a large exercise room that is fully furnished with exercise
equipment. No dimensions were available for the size of this room.
Brooklyn Center Police Department:
Brooklyn Center PD has a 70' x 50' exercise / DT room for a total of 3500 square feet.
This room contains a free weight system along with other exercise equipment. This room
is also used for defensive tactics training and storage of DT equipment and EOC
equipment.
RECOMMENDATION:
The building committee finds a need for a fitness / defensive tactics room. We believe
this is vital for the mental and physical health of both Police and Fire officers. This type
of setting would also allow for a more effective and efficient way to store the large
amount of defensive tactics equipment the city owns. This type of setting would also
allow officers to more effectively train new recruits and perform on -duty defensive
tactics training that is used on a daily basis by officers.
If a fitness / defensive tactics room were incorporated into the design of the expansion the
second floor area of Fire Station #3 where the fitness equipment now exists would be
open for other options. This may also eliminate the need to travel to St. Paul on a yearly
basis to use their facility for defensive tactics / in progress scenario training. This type of
space could also be utilized to store the bulky defensive tactics equipment which is now
stored in a variety of locations within the Police Department and Fire Station #3.
Report Writing / Evidence Processing Room
The building committee has determined a need for a larger report writing and evidence
processing room.
CURRENT:
The current size of this office space is 18ft x 6ft for a total of 108 square feet. There is a
work counter 18 feet in length, which will accommodate two officers and small space to
process evidence. This counter holds two computer monitors, one for normal use and the
other is set up for a connection to the state for law enforcement criminal files and records
checks. There are 5 double door cabinets above the counter that store needed police
report blanks. The excess blank reports that will not fit into the cubbyholes are stored in
different set of cabinets down the hall. There is limited room to move about in this area
when occupied by other officers because it is 6 feet wide, plus the counter overhangs a
portion of this space along with office chairs that would be in use. The report writing
room is a distance from the copy and fax machine. This room is also separated from the
secured evidence intake lockers, which are in a different hallway.
COMPARISONS:
Eagan Police Department:
The work area for the officers is the same or similar to the Plymouth area but the Eagan
room has 4 separate offices attached to this room, which are approximately lOftx1Oft.
These rooms are private areas in which the patrol officers can work on reports and make
follow up phone calls without disturbing others that are using the main room. Total size
is 508 square feet.
Bloomington Police Department:
The room size is 30ft x 15ft and houses 5 cubicle workstations three of which have
computers and phones at this time. There is a long work desk with cabinets to store blank
reports. Total size is 450 square feet.
Saint Louis Park Police Department:
The room is 14ft x 18ft in size. Tabletop shelves line 3 of the walls for workspace.
There are two computers available and blank reports are kept in open storage bins, which
are individually labeled. Total size is 252 square feet.
Maple Grove Police Department:
The room is 600 square feet with 3 work cubicles, each supplied with a phone and
computer. The blank reports are stored in open bins, which are mounted on the wall.
Blaine Police Department:
The size of the room is 65ft x 25ft. There are ten separate work areas that will be
equipped with computers and phones. There is also another large counter top area high
enough to write on or prepare papers while standing. On one side of this counter top
there are mail bins for the officers, on the other side there are bins for blank paperwork
forms. This work area also includes a copy machine. Total size is 1625 square feet.
Coon Rapids Police Department:
The size of the room is 20ft x 30ft. The work area has large cubicles with computers and
phones. There is a Sergeant's office attached to the report writing room. Total area is
600 square feet.
Brooklyn Center Police Department:
The report writing work area is not confined to a particular room but it is incorporated
into an atrium area around other separate offices. There are 8 separate workstations for
officers. Two officers share each workstation. The work area is on the second floor.
RECOMMENDATION:
The building committee has determined a need for a larger report writing / evidence
processing area. The area that would accommodate our department until the year 2020
and would need to be 50ftx40ft in size. Four cubicle workstations would also be a great
asset for privacy in this area. A system of open cubicle boxes for blank report forms
would be necessary. A larger workstation to process evidence is also needed in this area.
It would be a great advantage to have the intake lockers for processed evidence attached
to this room so officers would not have to waste time bringing the evidence to another
part of the building. Total size requested is 2000 square feet.
If a new report writing / evidence area was constructed the existing area could be
incorporated into additional women's locker room space.
Emergency Operations Center / Training Room
The building committee has determined a need to increase the size and to change the
configuration of the emergency operation center or EOC.
fill 19 D1UF
The police training room located on the second floor doubles as an emergency operations
center work area in large emergencies or disasters. The size of this room is 39ft x 23ft or
897 square feet and is rated for a 60 -person capacity. This room is primarily used as
space to train officers of our department or to host trainings open to outside agencies with
instruction provided by a private organization in which we receive free open slots to
attend the class for our personnel in exchange for providing the space. There have been
department trainings in which officers had to stand or use chairs in the back of the room
without having table space to write or work on. The training room is also used frequently
by the public for meetings. The Plymouth City Council also uses this room for special
planning sessions. This room has ten outlets to install a phone and computer during an
activation of the EOC for an emergency. There is a separate 17ft x 12ft room that serves
as an administrative operations center for the EOC. This room houses the radio
communication equipment, area wall maps, and a white board to record the event
chronologically. This room is not directly attached to the main EOC/ Training Room.
The small office that adjoins or allows entry between the two rooms is currently used, as
an office for Community and Schools Sgt. The total size is 1101 square feet.
COMPARISONS:
Eagan Police Department:
The room is designed for the multi-purpose use of training, roll call and an EOC. The
size of the room is 26 x 30 or 780 square feet. There are white boards and corkboards
secured to the walls. There are 12 electrical outlets along the wall and 8 outlets in the
floor for computer and phone access.
Bloomington Police Department:
This room is a multifunction area utilized for training, major casework and an EOC. The
outlets and jacks for phones and computers are located in the floor. There are pull out
workstations in the walls. This room has shared access with the city hall. The size of this
room is 31 ft x 5Oft for a total size of 1550 square feet.
Saint Louis Park Police Department:
The EOC consists of three rooms that are separated by a wall divider, which can be easily
opened to one large area for the activation of the EOC. The roll call room 26ft x 20ft, the
training room 26ft x 20ft and the lunchroom 20ft x 16ft would become the active EOC
with a total size of 1360 square ft. This open area has 15 phone / computer connections.
Maple Grove Police Department:
The EOC is used as a multi-purpose room and is located in the basement level in an area
open to the public. The EOC is located directly between the police and city hall
underground garages. There are 16 phone/computer jacks in the floor. The front of the
room has a very large media screen built into the wall. There is a kitchen and bathrooms
directly across the hall from this room making it very versatile for trainings and
emergencies. There are two large storage rooms just off of the main EOC. The size of
the room is approximately 2300 square feet.
Blaine Police Department:
This is a multi-purpose room used for training and an active EOC. All the tables in the
room fit into a closet area so the space can be utilized for defensive tactics training. Gym
mats are laid down for this physical training. All the supplies for an active EOC are kept
in the room. Each table is cord accessible for laptop computers and phones. The room is
secured by card access. The size of the room is 43ft x 38ft for a total area of 1634
square feet.
Coon Rapids Police Department:
The room is multi-purpose and is used for roll call meetings and as an EOC. There are 18
outlets 8 of which are set for EOC use. These EOC outlets have connections for phone,
computer and 110 power. The total size of this room is 446 square feet.
Brooklyn Center Police Department:
The EOC area is a room rated for a capacity of 75 persons and is normally divided in
half. The one half is used for training and the other houses the EOC function and
equipment. The room can be opened during an EOC activation. No specific dimensions
were supplied.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The committee believes that the main EOC / Training Room should be 1800 square feet
with an attached 400 square foot EOC operations office to house communications, wall
maps, multiple white boards, and a conference table. The main room should have 16
outlets positioned in the floor for computers and phones. The EOC operations office
needs to have 4 outlets for phones and computers. The committee agrees that the main
room should be made accessible to the city hall staff and the public for reserved meetings
and functions with the capability to secure the area for an activation of the EOC. This
room can also serve the function of a defensive tactics training room if a separate fitness -
defensive tactics room was not constructed.
If this area were created, the current EOC/ Training room and EOC operations room
would be vacant for optional use.
PRIORITY FOUR NEEDS
Roll Call Room
This building committee desires a room for the sole purpose of roll call. The purpose of a roll
call room is a gathering place for officers, at the beginning of their shift, to obtain information
regarding past, current and future events occurring in the City. The room is also used for on -
duty training.
CURRENT:
The current size of our roll call room is 29'X18'. Total size of 522 square feet. The size of the
room is adequate for the five to ten officers that use it during their shift. Adjacent to our roll call
room is the ERU room and the arsenal/equipment room. We feel the current layout and location
of the room within our building, is detrimental to the dissemination of information. In order for
officers going off-duty to access the ERU room and the equipment/arsenal room, it is necessary
for them to walk through the roll call room, disturbing the roll call and/or the training that is
taking place.
COMPARISONS:
Eagan Police Department:
Eagan PD does not do roll calls at the start of their shifts. They disseminate information to
officers via their in squad, laptop computers. Eagan PD does however use a room as a joint
EOC/on-duty training room. This room is approximately 30'X30'. Total size of 900 square
feet.
Bloomington Police Department:
Bloomington PD has a 36'X19' room, with a divider, that they use strictly for roll call and on -
duty training. The room is centrally located within the PD, out of public view. Total size of 684
square feet.
Maple Grove Police Department:
Maple Grove PD has a 20'X40' room used for roll call. The room has storage closets in the
entire length of one wall. The room is located on the second floor out of public view. Total size
of 800 square feet.
Saint Louis Park Police Department:
St. Louis Park PD has a 26x20' room used for roll call. Total size of 520 square feet. This
room is connected by a moveable wall to a 26'X20' training room, which is again connected by a
moveable wall to a 20'X16' lunch room. When all the walls are removed the room can hold 100
people for training or meetings.
Blaine Police Department:
Blaine PD has a room specifically for roll calls, however no dimensions were obtained. The
room has ample storage.
Coon Rapids Police Department:
Coon Rapids PD has a room specifically for roll call, however no dimensions were obtained.
Brooklyn Center Police Department: Brooklyn Center PD has a room specifically for roll call.
The room has a 75 -person capacity and can be split by a moveable wall. No dimensions were
obtained.
RECOMMENDATION:
The building committee recommends that a room, comparable in size to our current roll call
room be constructed or remodeled for the sole purpose of roll call and on -duty training. The
addition of a new roll call room could make it possible to expand existing locker room space
from the vacancy created by the old room. It would serve as a benefit not to have the ERU
equipment room and patrol equipment room incorporated into the roll call room because this
would reduce the amount of interruptions during meetings.
Conclusion
This study focused on the need for a heated enclosed garage and additional storage with
the opportunity to assess future space needs of the department. The existing building was
found to be lacking in size and functional design. An architectural firm would need to be
consulted to assist our committee in any future design or new location. Possibilities may
include a remodel / expansion of the current facility, construction of a new facility or
purchasing an existing building to convert to police department use. At this present time
there is a building for sale at 2915 Niagara Lane. The location of this building is directly
between city hall and the public works shops. The facility is 89,026 square feet in size
and is listed for sale at $3,850,000.000. There is expansion land available. The
acquisition of this building would solve our space needs issues but more study into this
property would need to take place after consideration of this entire study by the city
council and city administrative staff.
The building committee is appreciative of this opportunity to be involved with the study
to improve our current facility. We would be excited to continue as a committee to assist
in any approved changes to our building. We would like to thank the Mayor, the City
Council, the City Manager, the Assistant City Manager and the Chief of Police for giving
our study consideration.
