Faced with nearly a five percent population annual growth, the City of Lakeville hired Wold to conduct a space needs analysis of the police department to determine appropriate responses to their impending police staffing and service needs.
Wold provided the City with a space needs/utilization study, projected department space needs, developed options for the City, and feasibility and cost analysis of expansion and remodeling vs. new facility. Wold provided the City with full build-out and phased build-out cost estimates as well as site and parking analyses for each option. The City opted to build a new facility on a new site.
Wold also worked with the City of Lakeville to repurpose the former police facility into the Heritage Center— housing a senior center, historical society, and Yellow Ribbon Center for the City.
