Police Facility Planning Guidelines

Monday, February 04, 2002 by IACP

In collaboration with the Bureau of Justice Assistance, IACP has released Police Facility Planning Guidelines, a desk reference to help police administrators plan, design, and build facilities to meet present and future needs. The document contains a step-by-step planning model. This project had the support of police leaders across the country who had recently constructed new facilities. Their partner architecture firms participated as well. IACP staff visited several new facilities to gain firsthand knowledge of how successful projects were managed.
