Brownsville State-Of-The-Art Public Safety Complex

In a significant move to enhance public safety and emergency preparedness, the Brownsville City Commission has approved funding for a new Public Safety Complex.

The facility will bring together critical departments, including the Office of Emergency Management, the Police Department, Fire Department Administration, and the Cybersecurity Division, under one roof.

“This complex is a big upgrade that will improve our ability to respond to emergencies and provide top-notch services to residents,” said Felix Sauceda, Jr., Brownsville Police Chief and Assistant City Manager.

The multi-level complex is still in the early planning stages, with a needs assessment currently underway. Once construction begins, the project is expected to take approximately three years to complete.

The new facility will give the Office of Emergency Management a dedicated space to coordinate responses to crises such as hurricanes and environmental emergencies, ensuring the city is well-prepared for any situation.

City officials are confident that this turnkey facility will meet the growing needs of Brownsville’s community while improving the delivery of public safety services.
