BACKGROUND: The existing Police Department station was constructed in 1973. The building has received various updates through the years, including a significant interior remodel in 1985 and a remodel of several offices and rooms in 2018. This remodel effort focuses on a complete overhaul and upgrade of the indoor shooting range (Attachment A). Originally constructed in 1976, the current setup consists of a rubber backstop, four designated shooting lanes with target rails, a suspended acoustical ceiling system, overhead baffles and an HVAC system. DISCUSSION: Police Department staff met with Public Works in order to provide a suitable design and layout, increasing range safety, making more efficient use of space, and providing easier access for cleaning the bullet trap. The existing rubber trap and all hazardous waste will be removed. Five new vertical funnel -type bullet traps will be installed, which, when coupled with non -lead frangible ammunition, will provide for an easier to clean method of capture. A new HVAC system will improve ventilation and capture of airborne particles. New ceiling and wall plates will improve ballistic protection, and new acoustical panels will improve sound mitigation. Lastly, an automated turning target system and improved, energy-efficient LED lighting system will provide better training conditions for staff.
