To Protect and Serve
The City of Fruitland Park built a new Public Safety Facility to meet the growing demands of the community. The new building is situated between Fruitland Park City Hall and the Fruitland Park Library. The new building is a two-story tilt-wall Building designed by our partners at GatorSktch that houses both Law Enforcement and the Fire Department.
The new Police Station portion is designed for sixteen Law Enforcement Officers with offices for the Police Chief, a CID Captain, and Detectives. Additional space has been allocated for the Squad room, Shift Sergeants, an EOC Training Room, Intake and Interview rooms, Evidence Processing, and an Armory, along with an accreditation, training and records room, CID Conference Room, a break room, storage, restrooms, showers, lockers, and a Sally Port.
The Fire Station side is designed to house eight Firefighters and accommodate three Apparatus Bays, including Gear Turnout and a Decontamination Room. A galley kitchen and dining area will accommodate three shifts with “kitties” for food with refrigerators and pantries. Lake County Fire Rescue Station #56 will feel right at home with a day room, a shared fitness center with Law Enforcement, bunk room(s), restrooms, showers, and a laundry facility.
